20110008806 | METHOD AND KIT FOR QUANTIFYING OF ALLERGEN-SPECIFIC HUMAN IGG SUBCLASSES FOR THE CONTROL AND ATTENDANCE OF SPECIFIC IMMUNOTHERAPY - A method for quantifying the levels of allergen-specific human IgG antibody subclasses, particularly of IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 or IgG4 subclasses, using a reverse ELISA immunoenzymatic technique. Also provided is a kit comprising microtitration plates for ELISA already sensitized/covered with monoclonal antibodies, for example, anti-Der p 1 or anti-Der p 2, total extract from corresponding allergens, labeled secondary antibodies, enzymatic conjugate, enzymatic substrate, and chromogenic buffer, as well as reference positive and negative control sera. The method provides high sensitivity for the detection of specific IgG antibody subclasses and is a potential tool for the control and attendance of allergen-specific immunotherapy in patients with allergic respiratory disease. | 01-13-2011 |

20090210501 | BLOCKING OF SPOOFED E-MAIL - Embodiments are directed towards detecting and reporting use by a domain of a message authentication mechanism, such as DomainKeys (DK), and/or DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), and enabling subsequent blocking of messages based, in part, on its usage. When a message is received by an inbound message server, a message source is determined for the message. In one embodiment, the message source is a domain name associated with the sender of the message. Statistics are recorded about the message, including the message source, whether the message is suspect, includes a forged source identifier, employs DK/DKIM message authentication, and the like. The reports may then be sent to various message sources to enable them to determine the extent of use of DK/DKIM message authentication, and to selectively block, re-direct, or forward the messages based, in part, on the use of DK/DKIM message authentication mechanism. | 08-20-2009 |

20080240716 | Beam position sensor - A beam direction sensor for determining the direction of each beam in an array of light beams. The invention basically consists of a screen positioned to intersect the array of beams and a video camera to record the position of the images of the intersections. The screen can be any of a wide variety of screens that produce an image of the beams when illuminated with the beam. These include frosted glass and various diffusers. A preferred screen is a holographic diffusers. | 10-02-2008 |

20110206317 | Optical fiber switch with movable lens - A scalable optical switch especially useful for switching multimode beams carried by optical fibers. Light from an input fiber is focused by a lens which is moved in an x-y direction perpendicular to the beam direction in order to switch the beam from one output fiber to a different fiber. In preferred embodiments the beam can be directed to any one of as many as 90 output fibers. Techniques for scaling the switch to produce N×N switches with N being large are described. Embodiments of the present invention can also be utilized to create more elaborate fiber optical switches such as an N×N switch and a N | 08-25-2011 |

20080239443 | Optical switch module - The present invention provides an all optical cross connect switch utilizing two-axis MEMS mirrors for cross connecting optical fibers in a first set of optical fibers to optical fibers in a second set of optical fibers. The optical fibers in the first and second sets of optical fibers are precisely positioned in a first fiber-microlens positioning array to define a first set of parallel collimated cross-connect communication beam paths, with each collimated cross-connect communication beam path connecting an optical fiber in the first set of optical fibers with a MEMS mirror in a first MEMS mirror array. Alignment beams are added to and aligned co-axially with each of the first and second sets of parallel collimated cross-connect communication beams. Two beam direction sensor units are positioned to detect each alignment beam in the first and second sets of alignment beams transmitted through the dichroic mirror and a MEMS control system controls the positions of the MEMS mirrors to connect optical fibers in the first set of optical fibers to any of the optical fibers in the second set of optical fibers. | 10-02-2008 |
20080240649 | Optical switch with co-axial alignment beam - A method and system for creating and co-aligning a first array of optical beams with a second array of optical beams. In a preferred application the invention is used in a cross connect optical switch. A first set of alignment beams are created and added to and aligned co-axially with each of the first set of parallel collimated cross-connect communication beams. A second set of alignment beams are created and added to and aligned co-axially with each of the second set of parallel collimated cross-connect communication beams. A preferred embodiment includes an injection unit with a “point” infrared light source such as a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) operating in the near infrared at 850 nm and having a divergence of about 30 degrees. The beam from this source is collimated with collimator optics to produce a collimated beam with a cross sectional dimension of about 16 millimeter×16 millimeters. This collimated beam is separated into 128 separate beams with a mask having 128 0.6 mm diameter apertures that are positioned to align the 128 separate parallel beams with the communication beams from a fiber bundle. | 10-02-2008 |
20080240715 | Optical fiber array alignment unit - An optical fiber alignment unit for the easy precise alignment of optical fibers in and array. In a preferred embodiment the positioning array is incorporated twice in an all optical cross connect switch utilizing MEMS mirrors for cross connecting optical fibers in a first set of optical fibers to optical fibers in a second set of optical fibers. The optical fibers are preferably arranged in rectangular arrays. These arrays include array sizes such as 4×8, 16×16 and 8×16. A preferred embodiment built and tested by Applicants is a modular optical switch in which an input 8×16 array of optical fibers from sixteen eight-fiber ribbons are cross-connected into an output 8×16 array of optical fibers also from sixteen eight-fiber ribbons. | 10-02-2008 |
