Patent CA-2817733-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CASTILLO ROBERT O
IPC: E21B33/128
Filed: 2011-11-04
Abstract: Sealing devices such as packers comprise a sealing element having one or more non-elastomeric fibrous sealing material layers formed by a plurality of fibers. The plurality of fibers may comprise one or more of natural material, metallic material, plastic material, or other non-elastomeric sealing material. The non-elastomeric fibrous sealing material layers may be formed by weaving the plurality of fibers, braiding the plurality of fibers, or forming a fibrous mass of the plurality of fibers. During operation, the non-elastomeric fibrous sealing material layers are radially expanded causing compression of the non-elastomeric fibrous sealing material layers. As a result, at least a portion of the air volume within the non-elastomeric fibrous sealing material layers is displaced by non-elastomeric fibrous sealing material causing the sealing element to engage a sealing surface, thereby forming a seal.

Abstract: Systems and methods identify a product ion that does not include an interference. A full product ion spectrum for a mass range of an analyte in a sample is received from a tandem mass spectrometer. A first set of one or more peak parameters is calculated for a product ion in the full product ion spectrum using a first XIC window width. A second set of one or more peak parameters is calculated for the product ion using a second XIC window width. The product ion is identified as not including an interference, if the first set of one or more peak parameters and the second set of one or more peak parameters are substantially the same. The product ion is further confirmed or determined to be from the analyte and not from a matrix of the sample by correlating the product to a precursor ion of the analyte.
