Process Outline Sample Clauses

Process Outline. Once two primary and two alternative Medical Conditions and suitable biomarkers have been identified (besides PSA), Vista will purchase commercially available mAB’s and purified target biomarkers. To the extent that isoelectric points (IEPs) are known or can be calculated from protein sequences, if known, Vista will attempt to identify biomarkers and conditions for binding that are compatible for groups of biomarkers (e.g., two markers with similar IEP’s are more likely to be compatible in a single assay than two with IEP’s that differ significantly). Next, Vista will covalently attach Condition-specific mAB’s to NW’s and determine if they retain their antigen binding ability when attached. We will use purified target Biomarker proteins to determine optimum pH for binding. We will next quantify concentration Vs. signal using purified target Biomarker proteins. If results indicate suitable sensitivity, we will next test specificity by repeating the above experiments with donkey serum proteins added in at physiological concentrations. If the signal remains suitable, we will next use human serum proteins isolated by Vista’s blood sample preparation kits and spike in purified target proteins and test for signal as a function of spiked in protein concentrations. Blood samples will be derived from subjects likely to have low or zero levels of target proteins (e.g. use blood derived from young female subjects for spike-in studies with purified PSA). As final verification of the assay’s utility, ActiveCare will procure blood samples from a statistically significant number of male volunteers whose PSA levels have been previously determined by existing approved assays. Vista will assess PSA levels from these volunteers on a blinded basis. After sending results of the blinded samples to ActiveCare, the sample identity and PSA levels, as determined by existing assays will be revealed and compared with Vista’s results. Vista and ActiveCare will have agreed in advance to the nature and number of samples to be used as well as the statistical methods to be employed. The Parties will also agree in advance of the study to the results that comprise success or failure (e.g. 85 % correct grouping using four categories such as 0-5, 6-10, 11-20 and 21-above ng/ml, or 90% correct ranking from lowest to highest PSA concentration). To the extent possible, the same samples will be used to repeat this validation within ActiveCare’s own facilities under the guidance of Vista’s technic...

Process Outline. Applications are accepted from eligible faculty in the spring by the required due date for determining ranking for potential recipients and alternates. Challenges to ranking must be submitted by the required due date. Workshops to assist applicants will also be held in the spring.
Process Outline. Contracted Training planning will align with the FET Service plan and the ETB’s specific service plans. A portion of the provision may be responsive or local needs driven and may fall outside of the FET service planning process. A framework of pre-qualified Contractors will be used to deliver Contracted Training contracts; in the event that a training requirement is identified that is not covered under this framework a separate procurement process may be conducted by the ETB. This framework will be divided into Regions and sub-regional (ETB) Lots. An anticipated minimum of Five (5) Contractors will be allocated to a sub-regional Lot. A restricted tender will follow the allocation of the Contractors to the sub-regional Lots to determine the allocation of technical categories. If providers in a lot drop out or are unable to deliver the service, an ETB may tender outside the framework for the services required. Each technical category will have a cascade selection of the anticipated five (5) Contractors in the event the preferred Contractor cannot deliver a course. The technical categories are: 1. Business, Administration Skills; Financial Services Skills; Management Skills; Sales and Marketing Skills; Media Skills;

  • Scope of Work For the 2022/2023 Grant Period, the Provider will maintain a victim services program that will be available to provide direct services to victims of crime who are identified by the Provider or are presented to the Provider, as specified in the Provider’s 2022/2023 Grant Application as approved by the OAG and incorporated herein by reference.

  • Parameters In calculating the MtM Exposure for each Transaction, the following parameters are set on the Transaction Date: ▪ On-Peak Initial Xxxx Xxxxx ▪ Off-Peak/On-Peak Price Ratio ▪ Off-Peak Initial Xxxx Xxxxx ▪ MW-Measure: initial Capacity PLC Per Tranche ▪ On-Peak Estimated Energy Quantity Per MW-Measure for each of the twelve calendar months ▪ Off-Peak Estimated Energy Quantity Per MW-Measure for each of the twelve calendar months ▪ Number of awarded Tranches In calculating the MtM Exposure for each Transaction, the following parameters are set each Business Day subsequent to the Transaction Date: ▪ On-Peak Forward Price ▪ Off-Peak Forward Price ▪ Current Capacity PLC Per Tranche ▪ On-Peak Estimated Energy Quantity ▪ Off-Peak Estimated Energy Quantity Process to Update the On-Peak Initial Mark Prices and Off-Peak Initial Mark Prices on a Daily Basis On each Business Day subsequent to the Transaction Date, the Pricing Agent will contact four Reference Market-Makers to obtain price quotes for on-peak and off-peak energy for PJM Western Hub. The Pricing Agent may not rely upon quotes from Seller or any Affiliate of Seller. The updated mark for a month will be equal to the average mark for that month over all sources from which a quote is available. If a monthly quote is available from any source, only the monthly quote or monthly quotes shall be used. Where quotes provide a bid and ask, the average shall be used. Where a quote for an individual month is unavailable, but the month is quoted as part of a “packaged” quote (e.g., January 2011 is only available in the form of a January/February 2011 “packaged” quote or an annual quote): ▪ If the other month/months of the package quote is/are also unavailable, then the marks for all months of the package will be calculated by multiplying the packaged quote by the ratio of the corresponding month to the corresponding calculated package quote from the previous day. Example: There are no On-Peak quotes available on day X during the contract for July 2011 or August 2011. However, there is an On-Peak July/August 2011 packaged quote of $73.00/MWh available. The On-Peak marks from day X-1 for July 2011 and August 2011 were $73.50/MWh and $76.50/MWh respectively. The day X On-Peak mark for July 2011 is set at 73.00 * [73.50] / [( (73.50 * 352) + (76.50 * 336) ) / (352+336) ] = 73 * (73.50/ 74.97) = $71.57/MWh. The day X On-Peak mark for August 2011 is set at 73.00 * [76.50] / [( (73.50 * 352) + (76.50*336) ) / (352+336) ] = 73 * (76.50 / 74.97) = $74.49/MWh. ▪ If the other month/months of the package quote is/are available, then the mark for the month will be set such that the average of the month and the other month(s) (weighted for either the On-Peak Hours or Off-Peak Hours as applicable) equals the packaged quote (see calculation example below).
