摘要:
An apparatus for modifying the temperature of the effluent of a fluid stream entering a flow cell which includes a counterflow heat exchange between the outlet fluid and the inlet fluid and a thermally equilibrating the flow cell with the inlet fluid after it has passed through the counterflow heat exchange and before it enters the flow cell.

The invention is directed to a method for increasing brightness of pulp, wherein the method includes: contacting a pulp slurry with chlorine dioxide in a final D (ClO2) bleaching stage; and adding a brightening additive to the final D bleaching stage after at least a portion of the chlorine dioxide has been consumed, in an amount sufficient to increase brightness of the pulp; wherein the brightening additive is an inorganic compound chosen from hypochlorous acid, one or more precursor compounds that form hypochlorous acid in said final D bleaching stage, or a mixture thereof.

In a luminescence detecting apparatus and method for analyzing luminescent samples, luminescent samples are placed in a plurality of sample wells in a tray, and the tray is placed in a visible-light impervious chamber containing a charge coupled device camera. In the chamber, light from the luminescent samples pass through a collimator, a Fresnel field lens, an infrared filter, and a camera lens, whereupon a focused image is created by the optics on the camera. The use of an infrared filter suppresses stray IR radiation resulting from plate phosphorescence (which can result in abnormally high backgrounds and/or alteration of the image received by the camera).

Example embodiments provide for authenticating a device to multiple servers without using delegation or having to have a password stored on the device. Multiple certificates that are typically non-delegable are used to authenticate the device to each server. One certificate is used to authenticate the client with the front-end server and a second certificate is used to authenticate the client against a back-end server. Rather than having both certificates reside with the device, however, the second certificate is originally stored by the client in the back-end. It is then retrieved “on-the-fly” by the front-end upon authentication of the client and used to authenticate itself as the client in order to act on behalf of the client when retrieving data from the back-end server.

A sample tube including a cylindrical part and a conical part is described. The cylindrical part can include, a first wall portion having a first wall portion thickness, a second wall portion having a second wall portion thickness, and a shoulder including a planar first surface and a conically beveled second surface disposed between the first wall portion and the second wall portion. The first wall portion can be disposed closer to the planar first surface than the conically beveled second surface. The conical part can be shaped as a frustrum of a cone having a conical part wall thickness. The frustrum can include a wider-end and a narrower-end. The wider-end of the frustrum can be in contact with the second wall portion of the cylindrical part. At least one of the first wall portion thickness and the second wall portion thickness can be greater than the conical part wall thickness.
摘要:
A luminescence detecting apparatus and method for analyzing luminescent samples is disclosed. Luminescent samples are placed in a plurality of sample wells in a tray, and the tray is placed in a visible-light impervious chamber containing a charge coupled device camera. The samples may be injected in the wells, and the samples may be injected with buffers and reagents, by an injector. In the chamber, light from the luminescent samples pass through a collimator, a Fresnel field lens, a filter, and a camera lens, whereupon a focused image is created by the optics on the charge-coupled device (CCD) camera. The use of a Fresnel field lens, in combination with a collimator and filter, reduces crosstalk between samples below the level attainable by the prior art. Preferred embodiments of the luminescence detecting apparatus and method disclosed include central processing control of all operations, multiple wavelength filter wheel, and robot handling of samples and reagents. Preferred embodiments of processing software integrated with the invention include elements for mechanical alignment, outlier shaving, masking, manipulation of multiple integration times to expand the dynamic range, crosstalk correction, dark subtraction interpolation and drift correction, multi-component analysis applications specifically tailored for luminescence, and uniformity correction.
