摘要:
An apparatus for sampling and collecting wood samples for analysis purposes which includes a boring bit surrounded by a chamber into which the boring bit draws samples and from which the samples are passed to a collection container. The boring bit is housed in a pair of slidably connected housing members which determine the depth that the boring bit enters a wood sample. Collected samples are analyzed for microbial contaminates.

A system may include a module that includes a component, a logic device to provide an instruction on behalf of the component, and control logic to generate a desired output voltage signal in response to a constant current, where the desired output voltage signal indicates a determined voltage that the component is configured to operate with when performing an operation. The system may include a board that includes a power supply to produce the determined voltage based on the instruction, and an interface to couple the determined voltage to the component to allow the component to perform the operation on behalf of the board, send the constant current to the control logic, and receive the desired output voltage signal from the control logic.

Embodiments of the invention are generally directed to a system and method for enrolling a user into an authentication system. In some embodiments of the invention, a user completes a first portion of the enrollment or setup process using a first computer environment, but is not permitted to complete the enrollment or setup process from the first computer environment. The system permits the user to complete the enrollment or setup process only from a second computer environment different from the first computer environment. In one embodiment, the second computer environment is any computer environment outside of the first computer environment.
摘要:
A chemical vapor deposition apparatus comprises a heating element capable of emitting electromagnetic radiation; a retort positioned relative to the heating element to receive the electromagnetic radiation; an encasing member at least partially disposed around the retort, the encasing member comprising a material that is at least partially transparent to the electromagnetic radiation; a plenum defined at least in part by an inner surface of the encasing member and an outer surface of the retort; and a furnace box at least partially disposed around the encasing member and the retort, and housing the heating element.
摘要:
A container for a combination moisture absorber and deodorizer is constructed from an upper half and a lower half that, when joined together, define an enclosed interior. The upper half has a plurality of openings that allow ambient air to pass from outside the container to the enclosed interior. A tray is seated above a collection surface on the lower half and is provided with a plurality of openings that allow moisture absorbed from the air to pass from the tray to the collection surface. A moisture absorbing medium that is preferably dissolvable is preferably provided on the tray for transforming moisture from the air into liquid that passes through the tray and collects on the collection surface. A deodorizing medium is also preferably provided on either the tray or the collection surface (or both) for adding a deodorizing effect.

A system for targeting contextually relevant digital communications based on past, current, or forecasted weather conditions is disclosed. The system receives passive location information from a viewer and a real-time feed of weather information from a weather database. The disclosed system assesses the weather condition in a given location and then manages the display and rotation of advertisements with both direct and indirect weather dependencies.

T cells are profiled with respect to their expression of antigen receptor. The cells are arrayed on a planar or three-dimensional substrate through binding to immobilized or partially diffused MHC-antigen complexes. The cells may further be characterized with respect to their ability to respond to external stimulus in the microenvironment. External stimuli include cell-cell interactions, response to factors, and the like.
摘要:
An alloy for an interconnect for a fuel cell is provided. The alloy comprises iron at least about 60 weight percent, chromium in the range of about 15 to about 30 weight percent and tungsten in the range of about 3 to about 4.5 weight percent. The alloy also includes at least one element selected from the group consisting of aluminum, yttrium, zirconium, lanthanum, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, vanadium, tantalum, and titanium.
摘要:
The ability of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to distinguish between compounds and between parts of compounds is substantially increased by the use of certain rare earth chelate shift reagents. The preferred shift reagents are the europium III chelates of substituted or unsubstituted dicampholyl ligands, and europium III chelates of substituted or unsubstituted nopinato compounds. The reagents are particularly useful in determining the enantiomeric purity of compositions containing mixtures of enantiomers.
