Abstract: The present inventors here present a novel strategy for identification of RNA  transcript variants and demonstrate that these can be correlated to disease states in mammals such as cancer. In particular, the transcript variants show prevalence and specificity to cancer, and thus also show clinical applicability in e.g.  cancer diagnostics and prognostics, treatment and therapeutics.  The present inventors have identified RNA transcript variants of VNN1 that can be used as biomarkers. The RNA transcript variant may also be used as biomarkers for diagnosing, prognosing, and/or monitoring a cancer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a milk conveyer device (100) for an animal. The milk conveyer device is to be implemented in a milking arrangement which comprises a milk storage reservoir (101) coupled to a milking attachment for attaching to an animal to be milked through a main milk conduit (103, 105). A sample element (109, 111) extracts milk, which is collected in a sample reservoir (115, 117) is connected to an analysis element (129) through an analysis conduit (123, 125). During the flow of the milk from the sample reservoir to the analysis element (129), the milk itself provides a cleaning effect. The flow is initially at a high flow rate and later at a reduced flow rate. A plurality of analysis conduits (123, 125) are connected to the analysis element (129), which comprises a selector unit (127), which couples milk from one of the analysis conduits (123, 125) to the analysis element (129). The device provides a self-cleaning effect and a low carry-over of milk between the two successive milking operations, i.e. between the milk of two different animals.

Inventor: CHRISTIAN SEAN M
IPC: G01V8/02
Filed: 2011-09-15
Abstract: A refractive index sensor having one or more sources, an adaptive optical element or scanner, imaging optics, a sensing optic, and one or more detectors. The scanner impinges a signal from the source into the sensing optic and onto a sensor--sample interface at sequential angles of incidence. The detector response increases dramatically to signals reflected from the interface at corresponding sequential angles of reflection equal to or greater than a critical angle. The refractive index sensor also uses an input lens between the scanner and the sensing optic and uses an output lens between the sensing optic and the detector. A processor controls the sensor and can determine index of refraction of the fluid sample based on the detector response and scan rate. The sensor can be used in several operational environments from a laboratory to a downhole tool, such as a formation tester to determine properties in a borehole environment.

Abstract: A method for correlating predicted data describing a subsurface region with obtained data describing the subsurface region is provided. Data is obtained describing an initial state of the subsurface region. Data describing a subsequent state of the subsurface region is predicted. A likelihood measure that determines whether the predicted data is within an acceptable range of the obtained data is dynamically and/or interactively updated. The predicted data is compared with the obtained data using the likelihood measure and determining a sensitivity of the predicted data if the predicted data is not within an acceptable range of the obtained data as measured by the likelihood measure. Data describing the initial state of the subsurface region is adjusted based on the sensitivity before performing a subsequent iteration of predicting data describing the subsequent state of the subsurface region.  The predicted data is outputted.

Abstract: The present invention provides a user interface for providing press-to-talk-in-teraction via utilization of a touch-anywhere--to-speak module on a mobile computing de-vice.    Upon receiving an indication of a touch anywhere on the screen of a touch screen inter-face, the touch-anywhere-to-speak module ac-tivates the listening mechanism of a speech recognition module to accept audible user in-put and displays dynamic visual feedback of a measured sound level of the received audible input. The touch-anywhere-to-speak module may also provide a user a convenient and more accurate speech recognition experience by uti-lizing and applying the data relative to a con-text of the touch (e.g., relative location on the visual interface) in correlation with the spoken audible input.
