Abstract:
The present invention discloses a fitness equipment comprising frame assembly, drive assembly, slide trolley and a smith system. Two base frames set opposite to each other are connected by connecting rod, and the first column and the second column are set in the vertical direction of the connecting rod which are connected by gantry frame, and the first cross beam and the second cross beam are set vertically on the connecting rod and the gantry frame, respectively, and the third column is set between them, thus forming the structure of fitness equipment, and pulley assembly is cooperated with the first wire rope, the second wire rope, and the third wire rope so that it can drive the slide car moves, realizing the alignment from the middle, which can reduce friction and increase the service life of the multifunctional fitness equipment when in use.
Abstract:
Flavonoid compounds may be prepared that are selective for certain cell organelles, and may be used as biological imaging agents. Organelles that may be imaged with flavonoid compounds include mitochondria and lysosomes. Advantageously, the flavonoids show specificity to certain organelles and may exhibit a florescence “turn-on” mechanism, where the flavonoids that have target an organelle exhibit a florescence response when excited.

Abstract:
Systems, methods, and apparatus are provided for vulnerability signature based Network Intrusion Detection and/or Prevention which achieves high throughput comparable to that of the state-of-the-art regex-based systems while offering improved accuracy. A candidate selection algorithm efficiently matches thousands of vulnerability signatures simultaneously using a small amount of memory. A parsing transition state machine achieves fast protocol parsing. Certain examples provide a computer-implemented method for network intrusion detection. The method includes capturing a data message and invoking a protocol parser to parse the data message. The method also includes matching the parsed data message against a plurality of vulnerability signatures in parallel using a candidate selection algorithm and detecting an unwanted network intrusion based on an outcome of the matching.

Abstract:
Systems and methods for enhancing spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT] are provided. In particular, a system and method for calibration of spectral interference signals using an acquired calibration signal are provided. The calibration signal may be logarithmically amplified to further improve the accuracy of the calibration. From the calibration signal, a series of more accurate calibration data are calculated. An acquired spectral interference signal is calibrated using these calibration data. Moreover, systems that include logarithmic amplification of the spectral interference signal and variable band-pass filtering of the spectral interference signal are provided. Such systems increase the dynamic range and visualization capabilities relative to conventional spectral domain OCT systems.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to conjugated polyelectrolyte (CPE) or oligoelectrolyte (COE) compounds represented by general structural formulae (I)-(IV), or a salt thereof and methods of using these compounds to detect targets in samples. In particular, the methods include: (1) exposing a sample to a compound of structural formula (I), (II) or (IV) or a salt thereof, allowing the compound to bind to a target and detecting a signal produced by the compound; (2) functionalizing a solid support with a ligand, incubating the sample with a charged CPE or COE and detecting the fluorescence of the solid support and thereby detecting the target or (3) functionalizing a surface of a solid support with a charged ligand, thereby creating a charge on the surface of the solid support; incubating the ligand-functionalized solid support with a sample, whereupon binding of the target, the charge on the surface of the solid support switches; incubating the sample with CPE or COE that has a complementary charge to the charge of the target-bound surface; and detecting the fluorescence of the solid support and thereby detecting the target. The compounds of the present invention possess high photoluminescence quantum yields in biological media, low cytotoxicity, and excellent environmental stability and photostability and can be used in biosensor and bioimaging applications.
Abstract:
The invention further relates to multichromophores, which may be conjugated polymers, and methods, articles and compositions employing them as described herein. In some aspects, the invention relates to methods, articles and compositions for the detection and analysis of biomolecules in a sample. Provided assays include those determining the presence of a target biomolecule in a sample or its relative amount, or the assays may be quantitative or semi-quantitative. The methods can be performed on a substrate. The methods can be performed in an array format on a substrate, which can be a sensor. In some embodiments, detection assays are provided employing sensor biomolecules that do not comprise a fluorophore that can exchange energy with the cationic multichromophore. In some aspects biological assays are provided in which energy is transferred between one or more of the multichromophore, a label on the target biomolecule, a label on the sensor biomolecule, and/or a fluorescent dye specific for a polynucleotide, in all permutations. The multichromophore may interact at least in part electrostatically with the sensor and/or the target, and an increase in energy transfer with the polymer may occur upon binding of the sensor and the target. Other variations of the inventions are described further herein.
