Methods and apparatuses for the identification and/or characterization of properties of a macromolecule based on mass spectrometry data. Specifically, described herein are methods and apparatuses for converting peptide-level data into a pseudo-intact mass spectra. Also described herein are methods and apparatuses for converting peptide-level data into a pseudo-electropherogram. The methods may be well suited for analyzing proteins and protein complexes, including estimating properties of post-translational modifications of the proteins and protein complexes. Methods may include generating a theoretical graph or spectrum based on peptide-level mass spectrometry data. In some embodiments, the theoretical graph may be a theoretical intact mass spectrum or a theoretical charge distribution spectrum.

Pseudo-electropherogram construction from peptide level mass spectrometry data

This invention relates to graphical user-interactive analysis of data, including in particular, mass spectrographic data analysis, as well as methods and software for generating and using such. One aspect provides user-customizable reports, including methods and apparatuses for generating customizable pivot tables and graphs specific to mass spectrographic data.

Interactive analysis of mass spectrometry data

Tubing comprising a tubing wall formed of an elongate thermoplastic ribbon helically wrapped and heat bonded to itself to form the tubing wall. The tubing may include one or more elongate conductors helically wrapped around and along the tubing wall. The tubing may include an elongate reinforcement rib helically wrapped around and along the tubing wall such that the tubing wall includes a first portion in which the elongate reinforcement rib covers the one or more elongate conductors and a second portion in which the one or more elongate conductors are uncovered by the elongate reinforcement rib and the elongate reinforcement rib wraps around the tubing wall.

Helically wound tubing with exposed conductors

Digital pathology is a promising alternative to manual slide analysis, but improvements in imaging and analysis methods are needed to provide an analysis data set of images that can easily be handled, stored, and importantly, delivered from one data location to another. Methods and software are described herein to improve image collection and analysis.

Intact mass reconstruction from peptide level data and facilitated comparison with experimental intact observation

A method and apparatus for deshelling shellfish, particularly lobsters, using a laser cutting system.

Method and apparatus for deshelling shellfish

A method and apparatus for deshelling shellfish, particularly lobsters. An automated processing line conveys shellfish through a plurality of stations that sanitize, butcher, cut, and extract the meat, and then packages and prepares the package for sale. Vision systems with multi-axis robots guide and manipulate the shellfish through the processing line. Customized breaking blocks are used to sever parts of the shellfish, for example, the tail, knuckles and claws of a lobster, and a customized gripping device is provided for securing the severed parts in position on a conveyor. A water knife is then used to precisely cut the shell of the severed part.

Plastic tubing including a thermoplastic ribbon helically wrapped and heat bonded to itself to form a tubing wall and a thermoplastic reinforcement located helically around and along the tubing wall. At least a thickness of the tubing wall or a size of the thermoplastic reinforcement is varied along the tubing wall.

A smooth-bore plastic tubing with an outer helical support bead is resistant to collapse and incorporates plural conductors disposed outside of the tubing bore and insulated both from ambient and from one another within the sidewall of the tubing. The conductors may have a desired relatively high thermal conductivity to tidal air flow within the tubing, while also having a comparatively high thermal resistance relative to ambient. The conductors may be electrical conductors, or fiber optic conductors.

Flexible tubing with embedded helical conductors and method of making

A smooth-bore plastic tubing with an outer helical support bead is resistant to collapse and incorporates plural conductors disposed outside of the tubing bore and insulated both from ambient and from one another. The conductors may have a desired relatively high thermal conductivity to tidal air flow within the tubing, while also having a comparatively high thermal resistance to ambient. The conductors may be electrical conductors, or may include fiber optic conductors as well in the same tubing structure. A method for making the tubing includes extruding a molten thermoplastic ribbon. The plastic ribbon is wrapped to form a tubular body, and a grooved plateau portion is wrapped upon the tubular body. At least one conductor is embedded in the groove of the plateau portion. Finally a molten thermoplastic bead is then applied atop the plateau portion and atop of the embedded conductor providing a unitary flexible tubing structure with substantially smooth inside and outside surfaces free of crevices which could retain soil or bacteria.
