Abstract:
An application executing on a mobile computing device retrieves encoded information from a physical package by invoking a scanning function of the mobile computing device. The encoded information associates the physical package with a transaction. The mobile computing device transmits, using the encoded information, an item of recipient reaction information to a server at a network location. The mobile computing device receives from the server an item of transaction information associated with the transaction. The item of transaction information is usable by the application to perform a user interaction function related to the transaction. The mobile computing device performs the user interaction function.

International Classification:
G06K 5/00
US Classification:
235375, 235380
Abstract:
A computer generates encoded information to associate a physical package to a transaction. The transaction comprises an order for one or more items to be shipped in the package. The encoded information is provided for inclusion in a machine-readable representation of the encoded information for shipping with the physical package. Subsequent to delivery of the physical package to a recipient, recipient reaction information containing the encoded information obtained from the machine-readable representation is received over a network. The encoded information is used to associate the recipient reaction information to a record for the transaction.

Abstract:
Methods for detecting and measuring metabolic changes useful in the detection of cancer, and in differentiating between ovarian cancer and benign ovarian tumor are described, as well as the unexpected and valuable combination of detecting both lipidomic and aqueous metabolites. Two independent LC-MS-based metabolomics platforms, including a global lipidomics approach, were used to screen for differentially abundant plasma metabolites between cases with serous ovarian carcinoma and controls with benign serous ovarian tumor. The identified biomarkers can be used to distinguish between ovarian cancer and benign tumors. Standards and kits for use with the methods for detecting cancer are also provided.
