| 20090193880 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PREPARING SAMPLES - A system and method for preparing samples for analyte testing. The sample preparation system can include a freestanding receptacle. The method can include providing a liquid composition comprising a source and a diluent, and positioning the liquid composition in a reservoir defined by the freestanding receptacle. The method can further include filtering the liquid composition to form a filtrate comprising an analyte of interest, removing at least a portion of the filtrate from the sample preparation system to form a sample, and analyzing the sample for the analyte of interest. | 08-06-2009 |
| 20100248215 | SAMPLE PREPARATION CONTAINER AND METHOD - A system and method for preparing and delivering samples for analyte testing. The system can include a sample preparation system and a sample delivery system coupled to the sample preparation system. The sample preparation system can include a deformable self-supporting receptacle comprising a reservoir adapted to contain a liquid composition comprising a source and a diluent. The sample delivery system can include a valve positioned in fluid communication with the reservoir and adapted to control the removal of a sample from the sample preparation system. The method can include applying pressure to the deformable self-supporting receptacle to remove a sample from the sample preparation system via the sample delivery system. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100248216 | SAMPLE PREPARATION CONTAINER AND METHOD - A system and method for preparing and analyzing samples. The system can include a sample preparation system and a sample detection system coupled to the sample preparation system. The sample preparation system can include a deformable self-supporting receptacle comprising a reservoir adapted to contain a liquid composition comprising a source and a diluent. The sample detection system can be positioned in fluid communication with the reservoir, and can be adapted to analyze a sample of the liquid composition for an analyte of interest. The system can further include a fluid path defined at least partially by the reservoir and the sample detection system. The method can include applying pressure to the deformable self-supporting receptacle to move a sample of the liquid composition in the fluid path to the sample detection system, and analyzing the sample for the analyte of interest with the sample detection system. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100255484 | SAMPLE PREPARATION CONTAINER AND METHOD - A system and method for preparing and collecting samples for analyte testing. The system can include a sample preparation system and a sample collection system coupled to the sample preparation system. The sample preparation system can include at least one of a deformable self-supporting receptacle comprising a reservoir and a freestanding receptacle comprising a reservoir. The reservoir can be adapted to contain a liquid composition. The sample collection system can be positioned in fluid communication with a reservoir of the sample preparation system, and can be adapted to capture an analyte of interest. The method can include providing a fluid path defined at least partially by the sample preparation system and the sample collection system, positioning the liquid composition in a reservoir of the sample preparation system, and moving at least a portion of the liquid composition in the fluid path to the sample collection system. | 10-07-2010 |
| 20100285520 | SAMPLE PREPARATION FOR ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLING - A system and method for preparing samples to test an environmental surface for an analyte of interest. The system can include a deformable self-supporting receptacle comprising a reservoir, and a loaded substrate positioned in the reservoir of the deformable self-supporting receptacle. The loaded substrate can include a substrate and a source collected from the surface. The method can include combining the loaded substrate and a diluent in the reservoir, and agitating the loaded substrate and the diluent to form a liquid composition comprising the source and the diluent. | 11-11-2010 |

| 20090222760 | Method, System and Computer Program Product for Automating the Selection and Ordering of Column Data in a Table for a User - A method, system, and computer program product for automating the selection and ordering of column data in a table for a user are presented. In an exemplary manner, when a selected column is received, at least one available column related to the selected column is automatically recommended for display in an active table view. In response to the selected column being placed in the automatic data manipulation mode, a manipulation relationship between the selected column and the available column(s) is identified. When the selected column is manipulated (e.g., sorted, filtered), the available column(s) related to the selected column are automatically manipulated. The related available column(s) that are automatically recommended are concurrently displayed and grouped with the selected column in an active table view. Moreover, if a sort relationship exists between the available column(s) and the manipulated selected column, the related available column(s) are displayed according to the sort relationship. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20090259930 | Dynamically Selecting Properties to Display in a Table Based User Interface - Dynamically selecting which properties to display for a group of resources is provided. A selection of a group of resources is received to be viewed in a graphical user interface. A determination is made as to whether the group of resources is one of a plurality of previously saved groups of resources. Responsive to the group of resources being one of the plurality of previously saved groups of resources, a determination is made as to whether the previously saved group of resources has an associated saved group of properties. Responsive to the previously saved group of resources having the associated saved group of properties, a table is generated that comprises the previously saved group of resources and the associated saved group of properties. The table is then displayed to a user via a graphical user interface. | 10-15-2009 |
