20130294879 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SEMI-AUTOMATED TRAY LOADING DEVICE - The present application relates to techniques and equipment to stack mailpieces for sweeping. The mailpieces are manufactured on a mail processing machine such as, but not limited to an inserter or wrapper. More particularly, there is provided an on-edge conveyor where components have been ergonomically positioned to permit the filling of a mail tray in an efficient manner with minimal lifting of weight. A quantity of mailpieces that have already been offset can be pulled over the rolled/rounded edge of the conveyor into an awaiting mail tray supported on a roller conveyor. The operator is then able push the full tray to the side, load another empty tray, and repeat the process. | 11-07-2013 |

20130267031 | Method for Measuring Neuropeptide Y in Biological Samples - The present invention provides methods for determining the amount of NPY in a biological sample using mass spectrometry. The methods involve specific sample collection processes necessary to stabilize and facilitate NYP analyses. Once in the laboratory, sample preparation is followed by on-line extraction, liquid chromatographic separation of relevant moieties with detection by MS/MS whereby specific ion transitions are monitored. This invention has several clinical utilities related to disease processes and patient assessment. | 10-10-2013 |

20130037709 | Method for Clinically Monitoring Niacin and Niacin Metabolites in Serum or Plasma - The present invention provides methods for determining the amount of nicotinic acid and its active metabolites in a biological sample using mass spectrometry. The methods involve specific sample collection processes necessary to stabilize and facilitate simultaneous analysis of nicotinic acid and active metabolites. Once in the laboratory, sample preparation is followed by solid phase extraction, liquid chromatographic separation of relevant moieties with detection by MS/MS whereby specific ion transitions are monitored. This invention has several clinical utilities, particularly those related to monitoring patients on antihyperlipidemic drug therapy. | 02-14-2013 |
