| 20110293096 | Multi-Level Key Management - A key manager provides a way to separate out the management of encryption keys and policies from application domains. The key manager may create cipher objects that may be used by the domains to perform encryption or decryption, without exposing the keys or encryption/decryption algorithms to the domains. A master key managed by the key manager may be used to encrypt and decrypt the domain keys that are stored under the control of the key manager. The key manager supports the rekeying of both the master key and the domain keys based on policy. Multiple versions of domain keys may be supported, allowing domains to access data encrypted with a previous version of a domain key after a rekeying. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20110296499 | Security Context Passing for Stateless System Management - Systems and methods for stateless system management are described. Examples include a method wherein a user sends the management system a request to act upon a managed system. The management system determines whether the user is authorized for the requested action. Upon authorization, the management system looks up an automation principal, which is a security principal native to the managed system. The management system retrieves connecting credentials for the automation principal, and connects to the managed system using the retrieved credentials. Once the managed system is connected, the management system performs the requested action on the managed system, and sends the result back to the user. | 12-01-2011 |

| 20110104310 | Method of Manufacturing Magnoliidae Compounds - Magnoliidae compounds are made by obtaining parts of Magnoliidae plants. The parts of the Magnoliidae plants are mixed with alcohol and water. The mixture of the parts of the Magnoliidae plants, alcohol and water is heated and the parts of the Magnoliidae plants are removed so that a liquid mixture remains. The liquid mixture is drying to form a solid composition. Alcohol and water are added to the solid composition to reconstitute the solid composition into a liquid composition. The liquid composition is heated to form solid matter. The solid matter is dried to obtain a purified composition of the Magnoliidae compounds. A dose of Magnoliidae compounds promotes weight loss and can be administered in liquid form, sublingually, intravenously, in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, in combination with a metabolite detoxification agent, in combination with a nutritional or dietary supplement, or in chewing gum. | 05-05-2011 |

| 20080230692 | HIGH RESOLUTION MASS SPECTROMETERY METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ANALYSIS OF WHOLE PROTEINS AND OTHER LARGE MOLECULES - A matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) method and related system for analyzing high molecular weight analytes includes the steps of providing at least one matrix-containing particle inside an ion trap, wherein at least one high molecular weight analyte molecule is provided within the matrix-containing particle, and MALDI on the high molecular weight particle while within the ion trap. A laser power used for ionization is sufficient to completely vaporize the particle and form at least one high molecular weight analyte ion, but is low enough to avoid fragmenting the high molecular weight analyte ion. The high molecular weight analyte ion is extracted out from the ion trap, and is then analyzed using a detector. The detector is preferably a pyrolyzing and ionizing detector. | 09-25-2008 |

| 20100252731 | REAL-TIME AIRBORNE PARTICLE ANALYZER - An aerosol particle analyzer includes a laser ablation chamber, a gas-filled conduit, and a mass spectrometer. The laser ablation chamber can be operated at a low pressure, which can be from 0.1 mTorr to 30 mTorr. The ablated ions are transferred into a gas-filled conduit.

Preferably, the gas filled-conduit includes an electromagnetic multipole structure that collimates the nascent ions into a beam, which is guided into the mass spectrometer. Because the gas-filled conduit allows storage of vast quantities of the ions from the ablated particles, the ions from a single ablated particle can be analyzed multiple times and by a variety of techniques to supply statistically meaningful analysis of composition and isotope ratios. | 10-07-2010 |

| 20090256072 | MASS INDEPENDENT KINETIC ENERGY REDUCING INLET SYSTEM FOR VACUUM ENVIRONMENT - A particle inlet system comprises a first chamber having a limiting orifice for an incoming gas stream and a micrometer controlled expansion slit. Lateral components of the momentum of the particles are substantially cancelled due to symmetry of the configuration once the laminar flow converges at the expansion slit. The particles and flow into a second chamber, which is maintained at a lower pressure than the first chamber, and then moves into a third chamber including multipole guides for electromagnetically confining the particle. The vertical momentum of the particles descending through the center of the third chamber is minimized as an upward stream of gases reduces the downward momentum of the particles. The translational kinetic energy of the particles is near-zero irrespective of the mass of the particles at an exit opening of the third chamber, which may be advantageously employed to provide enhanced mass resolution in mass spectrometry. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20090256640 | AGILE HIGH RESOLUTION ARBITRARY WAVEFORM GENERATOR WITH JITTERLESS FREQUENCY STEPPING - Jitterless transition of the programmable clock waveform is generated employing a set of two coupled direct digital synthesis (DDS) circuits. The first phase accumulator in the first DDS circuit runs at least one cycle of a common reference clock for the DDS circuits ahead of the second phase accumulator in the second DDS circuit. As a phase transition through the beginning of a phase cycle is detected from the first phase accumulator, a first phase offset word and a second phase offset word for the first and second phase accumulators are calculated and loaded into the first and second DDS circuits. The programmable clock waveform is employed as a clock input for the RAM address controller. A well defined jitterless transition in frequency of the arbitrary waveform is provided which coincides with the beginning of the phase cycle of the DDS output signal from the second DDS circuit. | 10-15-2009 |
