摘要:
A method of tracking an animal (4) in a population of animals (4) comprises: applying a visual identifier (41) to the animal (4); associating reference identifier data of the visual identifier (41) to animal data of the animal (4); capturing a digital image of the visual identifier (41) applied to the animal (4); recognizing the visual identifier (41) by digitally processing the captured digital image; and identifying the animal (4) upon recognition of the visual identifier (41).

Disclosed herein is a method for assessing a compound interacting with a target on polarized epithelial cells. The method comprising the steps of providing an organ chip comprising a main channel and polarized epithelial cells, wherein the main channel is divided into an apical channel and a basal channel separated by the polarized epithelial cells, wherein the apical side of the polarized epithelial cells is directed towards the apical channel and the basolateral side of the polarized epithelial cells is directed towards the basal channel. Determining the localization and optionally the expression level of the target on the polarized epithelial cells. Administering the compound and optionally immune cells, preferably peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to the basal channel, when the target is localized on the basolateral side of the epithelial cells or administering the compound and optionally immune cells, preferably peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to the apical channel, when the target is localized on the apical side of the epithelial cells. Measuring a parameter of the administration of the compound and the peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

The present invention relates to methods and uses for screening anti-hepadnaviral substances, wherein the substances are screened for the capacity to inhibit covalently closed circular (ccc) DNA of a hepadnavirus, like hepatitis B virus. The methods and uses take advantage of cells comprising a nucleic sequence encoding a tagged hepadnavirus e antigen, like Hepatitis B virus e antigen (HBeAg). Furthermore, the present invention provides nucleic acid sequences encoding a tagged hepadnavirus e antigen and proteins encoded thereby. Also kits for use in the screening methods are provided.

A method for crystallization of a weakly acidic and/or weakly basic compound having an uncharged form and at least one charged form comprises the steps of: a) providing a solution of said compound in a solvent having an initial pH-value and an initial total concentration of said compound, said initial pH-value being chosen such that the compound is present in said solution predominantly in said charged form, said initial total concentration being chosen larger than the intrinsic solubility of said uncharged form; b) gradually changing the pH-value of said solution in a direction that leads to a decrease of said compound's solubility until reaching a predetermined target pH-value at which said solution is in a substantially saturated state and the concentration of said uncharged form is substantially equal to said intrinsic solubility thereof; and c) maintaining said solution in a substantially saturated state while allowing formation of crystals of said compound.
摘要:
A method for estimating the number of nuclei of a preselected isotope in a molecular species starts with an NMR spectrum of a sample containing said molecular species as a predominant substance, said NMR spectrum comprising a plurality of signal peaks corresponding to said nuclei. By applying inclusion and ordering criteria one obtains a set of ordered signal peaks, the integration of which leads to a set of ordered integrals. Nested outer and inner iteration cycles are carried out, wherein for each cycle a trial number of nuclei is assigned to one of said ordered integrals whilst the other ordered integrals are rescaled accordingly and rounded to the next integer value, so as to yield a candidate total number of nuclei. An estimated total number of nuclei is obtained by taking the lowest one from the plurality of candidate total numbers of nuclei that have the highest number of occurrences.

摘要:
A method and system for predicting a selected treatment regimen for a subject. Baseline data for a subject diagnosed with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) is received. A plurality of predictor inputs is formed for an outcome predictor using the baseline data and regimen data for a plurality of treatment regimens. The plurality of predictor inputs comprises a different predictor input for each of the plurality of treatment regimens. A plurality of treatment scores is generated for the plurality of treatment regimens via the set of outcome predictor using the plurality of predictor inputs. One of the plurality of treatment regimens is selected as a selected treatment regimen for the subject based on the plurality of treatment scores.

Systems and methods disclosed herein relate generally to systems and methods for detection, segmentation and characterization of isolated or overlapping object instances in digital images, applicable for detection, segmentation and characterization of crypts in histological images from patients with gastrointestinal disorders.
摘要:
A method and system for detecting a presence of comorbid ocular conditions. Input data that includes imaging data for an eye of a subject is received. A score that indicates whether a presence of a plurality of comorbid ocular conditions is detected is generated in the eye of the subject using a deep learning model and the input data. A comorbidity output is generated based on the score. The comorbidity score may be a classification indicating whether the presence of the plurality of comorbid ocular conditions is detected.
摘要:
A method and system for predicting fibrosis development. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) image data may be received for a retina of a subject with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). The OCT image data is processed using a model system comprising a machine learning model to generate a prediction output. A final output is generated based on the prediction output in which the final output indicates a risk of developing fibrosis in the retina.
