摘要:
The present invention is directed to processes of separating, analyzing and/or collecting selected species within a target sample by use of magnetic microspheres including magnetic particles, the magnetic microspheres adapted for attachment to a receptor agent that can subsequently bind to selected species within the target sample. The magnetic microspheres can be sorted into a number of distinct populations, each population with a specific range of magnetic moments and different receptor agents can be attached to each distinct population of magnetic microsphere.
摘要:
A connector assembly includes a sleeve having a first end and a second end. Reinforcing rings are embedded in the sleeve at the first end. A connector, which has a barbed end, is fluidly connected to the first end of the catheter. During surgery, the first end of the sleeve can be cut to exact length after surgical placement. The barb connector on a shunt housing and the cut end of the catheter are brought together such that the barb advances into the cut end of the catheter and at least two rings snap over the barb, thereby fluidly connecting the shunt housing and the catheter while forming a solid attachment and seal.
