Abstract

A system for visual inspection of a manufacturing line comprising a plurality of segments includes a program memory storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processing units, cause the system to receive, from a plurality of imaging devices each assigned to a segment of the plurality of segments, image data of assigned segments of the manufacturing line. The system analyzes the image data to identify an operational state of the plurality of segments by applying a machine learning algorithm to a model trained with a plurality of training data comprising a set of training images representing an assigned segment of a respective imaging device during run-time operation of the manufacturing line or during line clearance of the manufacturing line. The model is configured to receive image data of the respective imaging device as input and to output an image classification associated with detection of an anomaly in the assigned segment. Responsive to identifying at least one anomaly in the plurality of segments, the system causes a display to present a notification regarding the at least one anomaly.

Abstract

Biological detection systems and methods are disclosed for defining medically suitable target ranges of molecular attributes. A trial session dataset is received defining a set of subjects and biological experiment data of a test molecule provided to the set of subjects during a trial session. A principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm inputs such data and outputs principal component(s) defining a biological response to the test molecule and correlated with the test molecular attribute. A machine learning classifier inputs the principal component(s)and classifies a plurality of clusters based thereon. First and second positions of respective first and second clusters are selected to define control and sample datasets, respectively. A difference in direction and/or distance from an origin for the first and second positions is detected, and an effective target range is determined therefrom defining a range of attribute exposure values of the test molecule that has a medically suitable biological response correlated with the test molecular attribute.

A backflow mechanism is coupled to each of the chase solution vessel and the load vessel, and the backflow mechanism is configured to at least selectively prevent fluid from the load vessel from prematurely backflowing into the chase solution vessel. So configured, the chase solution from the chase solution vessel is added to the load vessel upon one or more of: (1) the load vessel reaching an empty state; or (2) pressure within the load vessel exceeding a predetermined threshold.

Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to methods of identifying a binding protein from a library of cell surface expressed binding proteins having a target protein binding specificity. These methods comprise providing a first cell population, where the first cell population comprises a library of cell surface expressed binding proteins; and providing a second cell population, where cells of the second population express the target protein. The first and second cell populations are contacted under conditions suitable for the target protein to bind to a corresponding surface expressed binding protein, if the binding protein is present in the library. A binding interaction between a target protein and surface expressed binding protein induces trogocytosis between cells of the binding interaction. Trogocytosis is assessed between cells after the contacting step, and a surface expressed binding protein of the library having the target protein binding specificity is identified if trogocytosis is detected.

Abstract

A method for assessing transferability of a fill recipe includes collecting acceleration data of a needle of an off-line filler using an accelerometer, and collecting acceleration data of a needle of an online filler using another accelerometer. The method further includes calculating at least one of velocity, speed, or displacement data of the needle of each of the off-line filler and the online filler. The method also includes generating a graphical representation of at least one of the calculated velocity, speed, or displacement data of the needle of the off-line filler relative to the at least one of the calculated velocity, speed, or displacement data of the needle of the online filler by overlaying the at least one of the calculated velocity, speed, and displacement data to identify any data discrepancy. The method still further includes adjusting at least one parameter of the fill recipe for transferring.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (Al) validation dataset generation systems and methods are described for generating Al validation datasets for validating Al-based protein sequence models. Such systems and methods include filtering a reference proteome dataset to generate a high completeness proteome data subset comprising reference proteomes. The high completeness proteome data subset is filtered to generate a protein confidence-based proteome data subset with reference proteomes above a protein confidence threshold. The plurality of protein sequences is clustered to generate a set of protein sequence clusters and a validation cluster subset is randomly allocated therefrom for creation of a protein sequence validation dataset. Validation metrics may then be generated by comparing (a) a set of predetermined values of the protein sequence validation dataset; and (b) the one or more predicted protein sequences as output by an Al-based protein sequence model.

A controller connected to a multi-axis robotic arm may be used to automatically perform a process that includes agitating liquid in a vial using a multi-axis robotic arm, pausing agitation of the vial for inspection of the liquid, and releasing the vial from the multi-axis robotic arm. The liquid may be agitated by moving the vial through an agitation motion profile that includes at least two-dimensional motion of the vial around an axis according to programmed motion parameters used to control movement of one or more axes of the multi-axis robotic arm. The motion of the vial includes at least two nonparallel vectors to move the vial around an axis. Such motion may induce a swirling motion of the fluid that mimics the motion that may be used in a manual visual inspection process.

Abstract

An equipment mover includes a base and an attachment. The base has a transport mechanism, a base platform connected to the transport mechanism, and a mount extending from the base platform. The attachment has an attachment platform, a linkage, a linkage actuator, a clamping arm, a clamp actuator, one or more power sources, and a controller. The attachment platform is rotatably secured to the mount of the base to allow relative rotation between the attachment platform and the base platform. The linkage is connected to the attachment platform at a proximal end and further includes a distal end. The linkage actuator includes a linkage motor operably connected to the linkage to move the distal end of the linkage vertically. A clamping arm is connected to the distal end of the linkage and includes a clamp.

Abstract

Systems and methods for inspecting and quality control of manufacturing and packaging of pharmaceutical product are disclosed. An exemplary? system comprises sensor circuitry/ and a controller circuit. The sensor circuitry comprises an embedded sensor platform, including an embedded accelerometer in an interior of the container empty of pharmaceutical product. The embedded accelerometer can measure container motion or position, orientation and movement information during experimental agitation of the container. The controller circuit generates an agitation protocol using the container motion or position information, which can be used to assist in subsequent agitation and inspection of containers filled with pharmaceutical products. The controller circuit can detect anomalies or defects associated with the container or the pharmaceutical product using data, collected by the embedded sensors.
