The present invention relates to the discovery of a specific human taste receptor in the T2R taste receptor family, hT2R75 that responds to particular bitter compounds The present invention further relates to the use of this receptor in assays for identifying ligands that modulate the activation of this taste receptor. A first transceiver subsystem is configured for communicating over the serial bus network between the management module and each server within a first frequency band. A second 3D image data record of the area under examination is recorded using an examination procedure based on electromagnetic radiation, such as computer tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. In one such embodiment, each time that one write request entry is recorded in one first database table, the storage management device updates at least one record in the second database table. The control system also receives information from an electronic medical record corresponding to a person’s susceptibility of developing at least one of a pressure ulcer and a superficial lesion and adjusts at least one of a component and a characteristic of the person support surface based on the information.
