| 20110059863 | IN VIVO EVOLUTION OF HYDROGENASES USING A HYDROGEN-SENSING SYSTEM - Provided herein are methods for measuring H2 production by a hydrogenase. Also provided are methods for evolving a hydrogenase or hydrogen-sensing system by comparing the level of production of H2 by the hydrogenase to the level Of H2 produced by a wild-type hydrogenase cultured under the same conditions and selecting a microorganism with increased H2 production over the H2 production by a microorganism having a wild-type hydrogenase. Further provided herein are microorganisms and plasmids comprising a hupSL promoter coupled with a reporter gene. | 03-10-2011 |

| 20090263846 | Oxygen-resistant hydrogenases and methods for designing and making same - The invention provides oxygen-resistant iron-hydrogenases ([Fe]-hydrogenases) for use in the production of H | 10-22-2009 |
| 20100200049 | BIOHYBRID SYSTEM FOR HYDROGEN PRODUCTION - Provided herein are systems and methods for generating photocurrent and systems and methods for generating hydrogen. The systems comprise (a) isolated biological photosystem II (PSII) complexes; (b) an anode selected from the group consisting of graphite anode, glassy carbon anode, and FTO anode, wherein the PSII complexes are deposited onto the anode; (c) a source of red or white light, wherein red or white light illumination of the PSII complexes deposited on the anode generates a photoresponse comprising a photocurrent; (d) a working solution; and (e) a cathode. The methods comprise (a) isolating biological photosystem II (PSII) complexes; (b) providing an anode selected from the group consisting of a graphite anode, a glassy carbon anode, and an FTO anode, wherein the PSII complexes are deposited onto the anode; (c) providing a working solution; (d) providing a cathode; and (e) illuminating with red or white light the PSII complexes deposited on the anode, wherein red or white light illumination of PS II complexes generates a photoresponse comprising a photocurrent. | 08-12-2010 |

| 20090087880 | PROCESS AND GENES FOR EXPRESSION ANDOVEREXPRESSION OF ACTIVE [FeFe] HYDROGENASES - A process for expression of active [FeFe]-hydrogenase in a host organism that does not contain either the structural gene(s) for [FeFe]-hydrogenases and/or homologues for the maturation genes HydE, HydF and HyG, comprising: cloning the structural hydrogenase gene(s) and/or the maturation genes HydE, HydF and HydG from an organisms that contains these genes into expression plasmids; transferring the plasmids into an organism that lacks a native [FeFe]-hydrogenase or that has a disrupted [FeFe]-hydrogenase and culturing it aerobically; and inducing anaerobiosis to provide [FeFe] hydrogenase biosynthesis and H?2#191 production. | 04-02-2009 |

| 20100275010 | Method of Authentication of Users in Data Processing Systems - A method of authentication of users in a data processing system is provided. The method includes a “Challenge” univocally associated with a user to be authenticated; processing the “Challenge” to generate an expected answer code, to be compared with an answer code that the user has to provide for authentication; encoding the generated “Challenge” for obtaining an image displayable through a display device; sending the image containing the “Challenge” to the user; displaying the image containing the “Challenge”; through a user device provided with an image-capturing device, optically capturing the displayed image; through the user device, processing the captured image for extracting from the captured image the “Challenge”, and subsequently processing the obtained “Challenge” for generating the answer code; receiving the answer code from the user and comparing it to the expected answer code; and, in case of positive comparison, authenticating the user. One among the actions of generating a “Challenge” and an expected answer code, and the action of processing the captured image that generates the answer code exploit secret information univocally associated with the user. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20100306414 | Transferring of SNMP Messages Over UDP with Compression of Periodically Repeating Sequences - The transfer of messages using an UDP transport is provided. A typical example is offered by the SNMP messages, used to perform the communication (C | 12-02-2010 |
