A method and system have been provided to perform high speed nucleic acid melting analysis while still obtaining accurate melting curve sufficient for genotyping. This rapid ability to interrogate DNA should be useful whenever time to result is important, such as in molecular point of care testing. Specifically, microfluidics enables genotyping by melting analysis at rates up to 50&#xb0; C./s, requiring less than is to acquire an entire melting curve. High speed melting reduces the time for melting analysis, decreases errors, and improves genotype discrimination of small amplicons.

High speed nucleic acid melting analysis

The present invention relates to methods for the analysis of nucleic acids present in biological samples, and more specifically to normalize a high resolution melt curve to assist in the identification of one or more properties of the nucleic acids. The present invention provides methods and systems that incorporate a background identification algorithm according to invention principles using raw melt curve data to identify reactions that are unrelated actual DNA melt reactions. Furthermore, a web-based application for analyzing experimental data is provided. The raw experimental data obtained from a variety of instruments is processed and analyzed on a server and presented to a user through a user interface (UI).

System and method for modeling and subtracting background signals from a melt curve

The invention relates to multifunction peripherals (MFPs). More particularly, the invention relates to remote application configuration management of MFPs. A remote application configuration manager may extract configuration information from custom applications, organize a user interface based on the respective configuration information, and receive and store parameter values with which the respective custom applications may be executed.

System and method for remote application configuration management on multifunction peripherals

Access control to a networked peripheral device by a walk-up user, wherein the networked peripheral device is accessible by both the walk-up user and a remote user, based on centralized access management information. Access control comprises receiving authenticated information for the walk-up user from the networked peripheral device at a centralized location, determining at the networked peripheral device a level of access to the networked peripheral device by the walk-up user based on received access management information for the walk-up user, and allowing the walk-up user to access the determined user-available features of the networked peripheral device based on the determined level of access.

Device access based on centralized authentication

Access control to a networked peripheral device by a walk-up user, wherein the networked peripheral device is accessible by both the walk-up user and a remote user, based on centralized access management information. Access control comprises receiving authenticated information for the walk-up user from the networked peripheral device at a centralized location, determining at a server connected to the network a first level of access to the networked peripheral device, determining at the networked peripheral device a second level of access to the networked peripheral device by the walk-up user based on received access management information for the walk-up user, and allowing the walk-up user to access determined user-available features of the networked peripheral device based on the determined first and second levels of access.
