Abstract

A method for automated microbial detection includes collecting air particles into a solid-state sampler, the air particles including microbes, charging the air particles using a plasma field generated by propulsion electrodes, focusing the charged air particles toward a sample well of a microfluidic testing cartridge, tagging the charged air particles with a fluorescence marker, and detecting a quantity of the microbes using a fluorescence detector.

Using phylogenetic probes for quantification of stable isotope labeling and microbial community analysis

Patent Brodie, Eoin L; DeSantis, Todd Z; Karaoz, Ulas; ...

Herein is described methods for a high-sensitivity means to measure the incorporation of stable isotope labeled substrates into RNA following stable isotope probing experiments (SIP). RNA is hybridized to a set of probes such as phylogenetic microarrays and isotope incorporation is quantified such as by secondary ion mass spectrometer imaging (NanoSIMS).

Detection and quantification of proppant for optimized fracture treatment design in in-fill and new wells

Patent Ciezobka, Jordan; Eisenlord, Sarah; Maity, Debotyam

A system and method for detecting and quantifying proppant for optimized fracture treatment design in in-fill and new wells. Proppant is isolated from drilling fluids and then analyzed to determine whether a formation within the well has been properly stimulated based on the analysis. Placement of an in-fill well may be based upon the determination of whether the well has been properly stimulated.

Graph-theoretic analysis of discrete-phase-space states for condition change detection and quantification of information

Patent Hively, Lee M.

Data collected from devices and human condition may be used to forewarn of critical events such as machine/structural failure or events from brain/heart wave data stroke. By monitoring the data, and determining what values are indicative of a failure forewarning, one can provide adequate notice of the impending failure in order to take preventive measures. This disclosure teaches a computer-based method to convert dynamical numeric data representing physical objects (unstructured data) into discrete-phase-space states, and hence into a graph (structured data) for extraction of condition change.

Detection and quantification system for monitoring instruments

Patent Dzenitis, John M [Danville, CA]; Hertzog, Claudia K [Houston, TX]; Makarewicz, Anthony J [Livermore, CA]; ...

A method of detecting real events by obtaining a set of recent signal results, calculating measures of the noise or variation based on the set of recent signal results, calculating an expected baseline value based on the set of recent signal results, determining sample deviation, calculating an allowable deviation by multiplying the sample deviation by a threshold factor, setting an alarm threshold from the baseline value plus or minus the allowable deviation, and determining whether the signal results exceed the alarm threshold.

Personal glucose meters for detection and quantification of a broad range of analytes

Patent Lu, Yi; Xiang, Yu

A general methodology for the development of highly sensitive and selective sensors that can achieve portable, low-cost and quantitative detection of a broad range of targets using only a personal glucose meter (PGM) is disclosed. The method uses recognition molecules that are specific for a target agent, enzymes that can convert an enzyme substrate into glucose, and PGM. Also provided are sensors, which can include a solid support to which is attached a recognition molecule that permits detection of a target agent, wherein the recognition molecule specifically binds to the target agent in the presence of the target agent butmore » « less
