  • Patent number: 11924358
    Abstract: This application provides a method for issuing a digital certificate performed by a digital certificate issuing center that includes a public-private key generation module and an authentication module. The method includes: receiving a public-private key request from a node in a blockchain network; generating a public key and a private key of the node by using the public-private key generation module, and transmitting the public and private keys to the node; receiving the public key of the node and registration information of the node, and authenticating the registration information by using the authentication module; and generating, in accordance with a determination that the authentication succeeds, a digital certificate of the node by using the authentication module, and transmitting the digital certificate to the node. The embodiments of this application can improve the probative value of an issued digital certificate, thereby improving the security of data exchange in a blockchain network.

  • Patent number: 11713318
    Abstract: Compositions and methods of making and using thereof are provided with a specific antimicrobial activity and efficacy toward Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and low levels of toxicity toward mammalian cells. The compositions include water-soluble molecules characterized by a hydrophobic interior fragment and side groups containing cationic groups. A class of these molecules is provided with variations in the length of the internal conjugated segment and in other molecular features, which impact the efficacy and toxicity. The substituents on the cationic functional group, the structural variations on the solubilizing group, and the length of the conjugated segment are important features affecting the antimicrobial property and the non-toxicity to mammalian cells of the composition.
