Abstract: An improved method and related apparatus for detecting bacteria viability and drug effects using metabolic monitoring. A fluorescent material which is quenched by oxygen is co-localized with the target bacteria, and fluorescence signal is detected at the co-localized places. In some embodiments, the fluorescent material is a fluorescent nanoparticle mixed with the target bacteria in the sample, and co-localization is enhanced using centrifugation, electrophoresis, microflow path modified with antibodies, magnetic force, etc. In some other embodiments, the fluorescent material is a fluorescent film or 3-D matrix immobilized in the bacterial culture chamber, and bacteria in the sample is gathered into localized regions of the bacteria culture chamber where the fluorescent film or 3-D matrix is present by ways of centrifugation, electrophoresis or microflow path. Plasmonic nanoparticles with a metal core and plasmonic film with a metal film may be used as the fluorescent nanoparticles and fluorescent film.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of extracting keywords from a document based on certain statistical, positional and natural language data, as well as relationship maps between the keywords. Under this method, document data are processed to obtain an NLP result for each sentence of the document, and based on the NLP result, words in the document are filtered and grouped into terms; a frequency analysis as well as a co-occurrence analysis are performed over the terms to output one or more keywords representing the document.
