  • Publication number: 20140350184
    Abstract: Polymer surface modification method comprising the steps of first forming a surface of primary reactive end groups tethered to the polymer chain ends during fabrication of an article, and then modifying the reactive surface with bio-active molecules, hydrophilic and hydrophobic monomers, oligomers, or polymers to attain specific surface properties. Alternatively, a multifunctional coupling agent can be used to couple the primary reactive group to a second reactive group capable of reacting with a functional group associated with bio-active molecules, hydrophilic and hydrophobic monomers, oligomers, and polymers to attain specific surface properties. The invention involves bringing reactive endgroups to the surface with surface active spacer attached to the polymer chain end. The surface active spacer allows the migration and enrichment of reactive end groups to the surface during fabrication.

  • Publication number: 20140282920
    Abstract: Dynamically selecting a DHCP server for a DHCP client terminal device, according to an example, includes: triggering, by a network device with a DHCP relay function, an authentication performed by an authentication server on a DHCP client terminal device user when receiving a DHCP packet for requesting a configuration parameter sent from a DHCP client terminal device; receiving, by the network device, an identity of a DHCP server designated by the authentication server for the DHCP client terminal device user when the DHCP client terminal device user passes the authentication, and establishing an entry for user information of the DHCP client terminal device user and the identity of the designated DHCP server; and matching, by the network device, the user information carried in a packet with established entries when receiving the packet subsequently sent from the DHCP client terminal device, and forwarding the packet using the identity of the DHCP server in the entry matching the user information.

  • Publication number: 20140106369
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of biomarkers and, more specifically, to biomarkers useful in diagnosing aggressive prostate cancer. In specific embodiments, a method for diagnosing aggressive prostate cancer in a patient comprises (a) measuring the levels of one or more biomarkers in a sample collected from the patient; and (b) comparing the levels of the one or more biomarkers with predefined levels of the same biomarkers that correlate to a patient having aggressive prostate cancer and predefined levels of the same biomarkers that correlate to a patient not having aggressive prostate cancer, wherein a correlation to one of the predefined levels provides the diagnosis.

  • Patent number: 8576785
    Abstract: A data communication method includes providing a sender node having a data packet of information. The data packet includes at least one first field and a second field. The second field has content that is dependent upon actual content of the at least one first field. The content of the second field of the data packet is transmitted from the sender node to a receiver node. The receiver node is used to predict the actual content of the first field of the data packet. The receiver node is used to calculate the content of the second field of the data packet based upon the predicted content of the first field. The predicted content of the first field is confirmed to be equivalent to the actual content of the first field. The confirming step includes comparing the calculated content of the second field to the transmitted content of the second field.

  • Publication number: 20110257027
    Abstract: Polypeptide substrates based on modifications or fragments of the various APP isoforms, assay methods based on the use of these substrates, and screening methods directed toward identifying inhibitors of ?-secretase activity. The assay methods and the screening methods are adapted for use in high throughput multi-well plate assay apparatuses. In many embodiments the substrate polypeptides are labeled for ease of detection, and/or may bind specific ligands that themselves are labeled. Generally the labels promote high specificity as well as high sensitivity of detection. These features render the assay and screening methods that employ the labeled substrates especially suited for use in high throughput assay formats. This disclosure further identifies small polypeptides based on a subsequence motif of A? that are shown herein to be potent inhibitors of the activity of ?-secretase.
