20120282602 | MULTIPLE- ANALYTE ASSAY DEVICE AND SYSTEM - Provided herein is technology relating to testing biological samples and particularly, but not exclusively, to devices, systems, and kits for performing multiple, simultaneous real-time assays on a sample in a single-use disposable format. For example, the technology relates to an apparatus that finds use, for example, for point-of-care diagnostics, including use at accident sites, emergency rooms, in surgery, in intensive care units, as well as for non-medical applications. | 11-08-2012 |
20130059372 | SAMPLE PROCESSING UNITS, SYSTEMS, AND RELATED METHODS - Sample processing units useful for mixing and purifying materials, such as fluidic materials are provided. A sample processing unit typically includes a container configured to contain a sample comprising magnetically responsive particles, and one or more magnets that are in substantially fixed positions relative to the container. A sample processing unit also generally includes a conveyance mechanism configured to convey the container to and from a position that is within magnetic communication with the magnet, e.g., such that magnetically responsive particles with captured analytes can be retained within the container when other materials are added to and/or removed from the container. Further, a sample processing unit also typically includes a rotational mechanism that is configured to rotate the container, e.g., to effect mixing of sample materials disposed within the container. Related carrier mechanisms, sample processing stations, systems, and methods are also provided. | 03-07-2013 |
20140154043 | MICROPLATE HANDLING SYSTEMS AND RELATED COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS AND METHODS - Systems, computer program products, and methods useful for handling or managing microplates are provided. | 06-05-2014 |
20140307520 | MIXING CARTRIDGES, MIXING STATIONS, AND RELATED KITS, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS - Cartridges useful for mixing materials, such as fluidic materials are provided. A cartridge typically includes a body structure having surfaces that define a cavity with upper and lower portions. A rotatable member generally extends along a horizontal axis in the upper portion of the cavity. One or more protrusions typically extend outward from the rotatable member and into the lower portion of the cavity, and are configured to mix the material when the material is disposed in the cavity. Related mixing stations, systems, kits, and methods are also provided. | 10-16-2014 |
20150031117 | METHODS FOR RAPID FORENSIC ANALYSIS OF MITOCHONDRIAL DNA AND CHARACTERIZATION OF MITOCHONDRIAL DNA HETEROPLASMY - The present invention provides methods for rapid forensic analysis of mitochondrial DNA and methods for characterizing heteroplasmy of mitochondrial DNA, which can be used to assess the progression of mitochondrial diseases. | 01-29-2015 |
20150045239 | MULTIPLE- ANALYTE ASSAY DEVICE AND SYSTEM - Provided herein is technology relating to testing biological samples and particularly, but not exclusively, to devices, systems, and kits for performing multiple, simultaneous real-time assays on a sample in a single-use disposable format. For example, the technology relates to an apparatus that finds use, for example, for point-of-care diagnostics, including use at accident sites, emergency rooms, in surgery, in intensive care units, as well as for non-medical applications. | 02-12-2015 |

20130009927 | DUAL-FUNCTION LIGHT GUIDE FOR LCD BACKLIGHT - A light emitter/sensor includes a lamp, a light sensor, a light guide, and a light controller. The light guide has a pair of opposite ends and is optically-coupled to the lamp and the light sensor at one of the ends. The light guide is configured to convey light emitted from the lamp to the other end of the light guide, and from that other end to the light sensor. The light controller is coupled to the lamp and the light sensor and is configured to flash the lamp and to determine the intensity of light at that other end of the light guide, via the light guide and the light sensor, during an interval between the flashes. | 01-10-2013 |

20130029722 | MOBILE WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE INCLUDING SHARED VOICE COIL TO PROVIDE HEARING AID COMPATIBILITY AND RELATED METHODS - A mobile wireless communications device is for use with a hearing aid including a hearing aid compatible (HAC) coil. The device may include a portable housing and a wireless receiver carried by the portable housing. The device may also include at least one image capture component and a positioning coil associated therewith and carried by the portable housing. A controller may also be carried by the portable housing for selectively operating the positioning coil for image capture, and for inductively coupling received signals from the wireless receiver to the HAC coil. | 01-31-2013 |
20130159737 | Universal Serial Bus Current Limit - A load device includes a power input having an interface to a power supply; a peripheral power bus including an internal capacitance, and an active switch coupled to the power input and the peripheral power bus for applying power from the power input to the peripheral power bus. The load device also includes a switch controller coupled to the active switch for regulating the in-rush current drawn by the internal capacitance through the active switch while the internal capacitance is being charged. | 06-20-2013 |
20140051481 | MOBILE WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE WITH REDUCED INTERFERING ENERGY FROM THE DISPLAY AND RELATED METHODS - A mobile wireless communications device includes a housing and circuit board carried by the housing and includes radio frequency (RF) circuitry and a processor carried by the circuit board and operative with each other. A display connector for an LCD connector is mounted on the circuit board and adapted to be connected to a display. Display connection lines are carried by the circuit board and interconnect the display connector and processor for carrying signals from the processor to the display connector and a connected display. Filters are carried by the circuit board and connected to the display connection lines and reduce any interfering energy from the processor and display. | 02-20-2014 |

20130070119 | COMPOSITE FLASH FOR AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE - An apparatus and method for capturing an image on an electronic device having a flash comprising a first light source and a second light source is presented herein. A detection of a color spectrum of ambient light is made using image data sensed by an image sensor of a camera module. Additionally, a determination of an intensity of a first light when combined with an associated intensity of a second light results in a color spectrum that substantially matches the color spectrum of the ambient light. The flash emits a first light from the first light source of the flash and second light from the second light source of the flash. An image from a camera module is recorded during the emission of the first and second light. | 03-21-2013 |
