    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems of determining whether a subject’s levels of GFAP, UCH-L1, or GFAP and UCH-L1 are elevated in a sample collected from the subject. The methods comprise determining whether the levels of GFAP, UCH-L1, or GFAP and UCH-L1 are elevated in the sample, and communicating the determination on or from an instrument. The methods may be used to aid in the diagnosis and evaluation of a subject (e.g., a human subject) that has sustained or may have sustained an injury to the head, such as to determine whether the subject is suffering from a mild, moderate, severe, or moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).

    Abstract: A method of obtaining an exosome-enriched product comprises providing a whey-containing bovine milk fraction, conducting a first centrifugation of the whey-containing bovine milk fraction to obtain a whey middle fraction, conducting a second centrifugation of the whey middle fraction at an increased speed to obtain a concentrated whey fraction, filtering the concentrated whey fraction to obtain a filtered whey fraction, and conducting a third centrifugation of the filtered whey fraction at a further increased speed to obtain an exosome-enriched product. The exosome-enriched product comprises intact exosomes and less than 5 wt % casein based on the total weight of protein in the exosome-enriched product. Nutritional compositions comprise protein, carbohydrate, and/or fat, and exosomes provided by addition of the exosome-enriched product. A method of improving insulin sensitivity in a subject comprises administering a nutritional composition comprising the exosome-enriched product.

    Abstract: A method for analyzing the results of a ligand-receptor binding assay comprising the steps of:



    (a) providing the results of a ligand-receptor binding assay; and
    (b) qualifying the results of a ligand-receptor binding assay.




    More particularly, the ligand-receptor binding assay involves the steps of combining appropriate reagents in which receptors attached to a solid support, a sample suspected of containing a ligand, and a conjugate comprising a label form a complex in which the label is present at a concentration that is directly proportional to the amount of ligand present in the sample. Alternatively, the ligand-receptor binding assay involves the steps of combining appropriate reagents to perform a ligand-receptor binding assay in which receptors attached to a solid support, a sample suspected of containing a ligand, and a conjugate comprising a label form a complex in which the label is present at a concentration that is inversely proportional to the amount of analyte present in the sample.
