International Classification:

G01N 33/50

Abstract:

The present invention provides a method of identifying and mitigating a risk of deathloss of an animal, comprising receiving, at a processor from a hematology analyzer, information obtained from a sample from said animal, wherein said information comprises a leukocyte absolute count and a leukocyte differential from said sample, said sample comprising leukocytes, analyzing, by said processor, said leukocyte absolute count and said leukocyte differential to determine a survivability index for said animal, and managing the animal based on the survivability index.

Abstract:

A method of analyzing a blood sample from a subject includes loading the blood sample into a single chamber; acquiring, via an imaging system, a stack of serial focal plane images of the blood sample from a plurality of fields of view of the chamber; creating a virtual three dimensional image of the blood sample from selected ones of the stacks of serial focal plane images; and analyzing the virtual three dimensional image to identify blood formed elements within the blood sample. Identifying blood formed elements within the blood sample may include identifying a type and amount of white blood cells, and/or identifying an amount of red blood cells and/or hematocrit, and/or identifying an amount of platelets. Identifying blood formed elements within the blood sample may include determining numbers and percentage by volume in the blood sample of one or more types of white blood cells.

A01N 39/04
A01N 43/707
A01N 43/50

Abstract:

An aqueous liquid herbicide composition comprising a water-insoluble pesticide, for example flumioxazin, and one or more water-soluble pesticides, for example one or more of dicamba, 2,4-D, metribuzin, and imazethapyr, is provided. The water-soluble pesticide is dissolved in a continuous aqueous phase of the composition and solid particles of the water-insoluble pesticide are suspended in the aqueous phase. These compositions exhibit enhanced resistance to settling of the solid particles and/or enhanced resistance to chemical degradation of the water-insoluble pesticide by comparison with otherwise similar compositions.

International Classification:

G06Q 50/02
A01M 7/00

Abstract:

Systems and methods for mixing, storing, and dispensing pesticides, and guiding a user to an appropriate pest solution, are provided. One pesticide dispensing system includes a portable container comprising an opening configured to receive a pack having a predetermined size and shape, the pack containing a concentrated pesticide. The system further includes a piercing unit to create a hole in the pack for dispensing the pesticide into the container via the opening. Embodiments also include a pest solution selection kiosk comprising a display for displaying a first set of prompts for selection of a pest solution and receiving a touch input representing user selection of a prompt; a processor for identifying second prompts based on the user selection and stored pest solution criteria and identifying a pest solution product based on user-selection of the second prompts. The display presents information about the selected product and/or a dispense option.
