    Abstract: Examples are directed toward collecting, by a LC-MS device, a full scan of ion chromatograms of a sample. The LC-MS device determines observed ions contained in the full scan, based on mass-to-charge ratios (m/z), and determines, for a formation curve of an observed ion, a formation point at which fifty percent of the observed ion has formed. The LC-MS device determines a fragmentation curve of a precursor ion, based on a fragmentation point of the fragmentation curve equivalent to the formation point at which fifty percent of the precursor ion has fragmented, and identifies the precursor ion by referencing the LC-MS library to confirm that the observed ion is a product of the fragmentation of the precursor ion. The LC-MS device indicates a goodness of fit between the fragmentation curve, as observed, and a model fragmentation curve, as stored in the LC-MS library.

    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention are directed towards a system and method relating to depositing vapor in a sample. For example, a device includes a vapor source chamber configured to contain a vapor source material to generate vapor. An activation chamber is configured to contain a sample. The activation chamber is in fluid communication with the vapor source chamber to receive the vapor. A permeable separator divides the vapor source chamber and the activation chamber, and isolates the sample in the activation chamber while allowing vapor to pass between the vapor source chamber and the activation chamber. The device is sealable and configured to apply vacuum to the vapor and sample, to cause deposition of the vapor into the pumice stone samples.

    Abstract: In an example, a thermal extraction apparatus includes: a housing having a gas inlet and a gas outlet to receive a gas flow through the housing from the gas inlet to the gas outlet, and a side opening to receive a sample collector, having a sample collector adsorbent containing a vapor sample, into a sample collector location; a pump to generate the gas flow; a heater to heat the sample collector adsorbent of the sample collector to a temperature sufficient to release the vapor sample; a thermal desorption (TD) tube connected with the gas outlet of the housing to receive the gas flow downstream of the sample collector and collect the vapor sample released from the sample collector adsorbent of the sample collector; and a cooling member in heat exchange with the TD tube to cool the TD tube.

    Abstract: Collection, validation, accuracy checking, and matching of information for individuals, e.g., in-scope people entering/exiting a country is described. The systems, techniques, devices, methods, and approaches described herein can be used to collect biographic, biometric, and travel information for persons who enter a country with the expectation that the person will eventually exit. The system and method described herein include structures and procedures for determining whether the individual, based on his/her information, meets a predefined criterion that is associated with predefined procedures, e.g., special precautions are to be implemented. This document also describes how information for an individual can be matched with an existing record in order to ensure accurate recordkeeping.

    Abstract: In an example, a patient using a user mobile-identification-credential device (UMD) requests the patient's medical record from a medical office using a relying party system (RPS). The RPS requests identification information of the patient from the UMD and receives, based on consent of the patient, some or all patient identification information associated with a mobile identification credential (MIC) previously provisioned to the UMD an authorizing party system (APS). The RPS receives verification of the received patient identification information, uses the verified user ID information to verify or not verify the identity of the patient, and verifies the identity of the patient before granting the request to provide the medical record to the patient. The patient has the option of releasing part or all of the medical record to a third party. In one embodiment, the patient stores the medical record with a service provider and authorizes, in advance, certain medical personnel to have access to it.
