Abstract:
The invention further relates to multichromophores, which may be conjugated polymers, and methods, articles and compositions employing them as described herein. In some aspects, the invention relates to methods, articles and compositions for the detection and analysis of biomolecules in a sample. Provided assays include those determining the presence of a target biomolecule in a sample or its relative amount, or the assays may be quantitative or semi-quantitative. The methods can be performed on a substrate. The methods can be performed in an array format on a substrate, which can be a sensor. In some embodiments, detection assays are provided employing sensor biomolecules that do not comprise a fluorophore that can exchange energy with the cationic multichromophore. In some aspects biological assays are provided in which energy is transferred between one or more of the multichromophore, a label on the target biomolecule, a label on the sensor biomolecule, and/or a fluorescent dye specific for a polynucleotide, in all permutations. The multichromophore may interact at least in part electrostatically with the sensor and/or the target, and an increase in energy transfer with the polymer may occur upon binding of the sensor and the target. Other variations of the inventions are described further herein.
Abstract:
A kind of growth method of Fe3N, and the growth is in the MOCVD system, including following process: 1). the surface nitridation of sapphire substrate would be made; 2). pump in carrier gas N2, ammonia and organic gallium sources, and grow low temperature GaN buffer on substrate; 3). the temperature would be raised and grow the GaN supporting layer; 4). pump in FeCp2 as Fe sources, then grow Fe3N on the GaN supporting layer; the Fe3N granular films and the Fe3N single crystal films could be obtained. The invention realizes growing high quality Fe3N film. According to the problem of growing material with difficulty, the problems are solved by controlling and adjusting the conditions for the flux of organic gallium source and iron source, growth temperature, growth time, the flux of ammonia, and mole ratio of N and Ga. In the invention, the method is easy, the growth process could be controlled, and thus the growth method and the process control of growth technology have advancement.
Abstract:
Methods, compositions and articles of manufacture involving conformationally flexible conjugated polymers are provided. A structure is provided comprising the conformationally flexible conjugated polymer bound to or associated with at least one member of a binding pair comprising a sensor molecule and a target molecule or the complex they form. The conformationally flexible conjugated polymer comprises at least one angled linker having bonds to its two adjacent polymeric units which form an angle of less than about 155° with respect to one another. Methods of use of such structures and solutions comprising them are also provided.
Abstract:
Methods, compositions and articles of manufacture involving cationic conjugated conformationally flexible polymers are provided. A method for the synthesis of cationic water-soluble polymers with linkages along the polymer main chain structure which disrupt the ability of the polymers to form extended-rod structures is provided. Such polymers may serve in the fabrication of novel optoelectronic devices and in the development of highly efficient biosensors. The invention further relates to the application of these polymers in assay methods.
Abstract:
A display support device includes a connecting member and a lower tube. The connecting member is adapted to be mounted on a rear surface of a flat display, and includes an upper tube. The lower tube is disposed below the upper tube. One of the upper and lower tubes has an internally threaded portion, and the other of the upper and lower tubes has an externally threaded portion engaging the internally threaded portion to allow for rotation and therefore movement of the lower tube relative to the upper tube, which results in a change to the total length of the upper and lower tubes.
Abstract:
A shock-absorbing wheel mounting structure used in a horizontal jack is disclosed. The wheel mounting structure includes an axial sleeve (4) affixed to a rear wheel mount (5) of the horizontal jack (100), and a shaft (2), vertically slideably mounted in the axial sleeve (4) and riveted to a bracket (1). The bracket (1) supports a wheel (71). A compression spring (3) is sleeved onto the shaft (2) and stopped between a stop flange around the periphery of the shaft (2) and the top wall of the axial sleeve (4). This arrangement serves to impart a downward pressure to the shaft (2) relative to the axial sleeve (4).
