US Classification:

435 38

Abstract:

A swift, accurate assay for the detection of salmonella contamination in a livestock environments, comprises sampling the floor of the livestock holding area with drag swabs for about 10 or more minutes, after which said swabs are maintained in a static condition, at reduced temperature, in the presence of double strength skim milk, until ready for testing. The swabs are transferred to a salmonella-preferential growth medium, such as tetrathionate broth and subsequently assayed. To reduce non-salmonella "look alike" or masking bacterial colonies, Novobiocin may be administered to the culture media.

Abstract:

A method for storing mobile device data to cloud storage includes detecting a predetermined condition to backup data associated with a first mobile device to the cloud storage. Uploading, to a cloud storage server, data associated with the first mobile device including data associated with a plurality of third-party applications stored on the first mobile device and one or more of contacts information stored on the first mobile device, text messages stored on the first mobile device, or contents of a memory card associated with the first mobile device. The data associated with the plurality of third-party applications include binary data and metadata. The method further includes storing the binary data of the plurality of third-party applications at a first cloud storage location and storing the metadata of the plurality of third-party applications to a second cloud storage location that is different from the first cloud storage location.

Abstract:

A method for providing restoration of third-party application data to a client device is described herein. The method includes determining whether to provide, to the client device, data associated with a third-party application to be restored at the client device. The data associated with the third-party application includes binary data stored in a first cloud storage location having a storage address, and metadata stored in a second cloud storage location. The method also includes using the metadata to determine the storage address of the first cloud storage location. The method further includes providing the binary data from the first cloud storage location to the client device for restoring the third-party application data.

Abstract:

A method for storing third-party application data to cloud storage is described herein. The method includes determining to upload data associated with a third-party application stored on a client device to a cloud storage server. The data associated with the third-party application includes both binary data and metadata. The method further includes storing the binary data of the third-party application at a first cloud storage location. The first cloud storage location has a storage address and the metadata is updated to include the storage address. The method includes storing the updated metadata to a second cloud storage location different from the first cloud storage location.
