Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080233600Method and Kit for the Measurement of Neutrophil Cell Activation - The present invention is related to accurate detection methods for the measurement only of myelopexidase (MPO) levels or neutrophils, preferably equine neutrophils, in complex biological samples. The present invention is further related to ELISA and SIEFED assays for such detection. SIEFED detection sensitivity of active peroxidase activity was found to be enhanced by the addition of nitrite. Such MPO measurement finds its use in many applications such as the prediction, diagnosis and/or monitoring of pathologies correlated with neutrophil activation and/or destruction; the evaluation of drugs and/or immunomodulators; the assessment of immune responses, either natural and/or after treatment with immunomodulators and/or drugs; and the study of cells and their ability to fight microorganisms and/or to destroy them.09-25-2008
20100196926Combined Method And Kit For The Sequential Measurement of (1) The Enzymatically Active Fraction And (2) The Total Amount Of An Enzyme - The present invention is related to a combined method and kit (or device) for the sequential measurement of the enzymatically active fraction and the total amount of an enzyme [(such as myeloperoxidase (MPO)] in a sample, and that find improved applications in veterinary and human health fields.08-05-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110153326SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR COMPUTING AND TRANSMITTING PARAMETERS IN A DISTRIBUTED VOICE RECOGNITION SYSTEM - A system and method for extracting acoustic features and speech activity on a device and transmitting them in a distributed voice recognition system. The distributed voice recognition system includes a local VR engine in a subscriber unit and a server VR engine on a server. The local VR engine comprises a feature extraction (FE) module that extracts features from a speech signal, and a voice activity detection module (VAD) that detects voice activity within a speech signal. The system includes filters, framing and windowing modules, power spectrum analyzers, a neural network, a nonlinear element, and other components to selectively provide an advanced front end vector including predetermined portions of the voice activity detection indication and extracted features from the subscriber unit to the server. The system also includes a module to generate additional feature vectors on the server from the received features using a feed-forward multilayer perceptron (MLP) and providing the same to the speech server.06-23-2011
