Abstract:
A nozzle assembly includes a support member, a first tube, a second tube, and a baffling member. The support member defines a receiving hole and an opening communicating with the receiving hole. The first tube extends through the opening and defines a first space communicating with the receiving hole. The second tube is retained within the receiving hole and defines a second space communicating with the receiving hole. The baffling member is securely connected to an end of the second tube that is retained within the receiving hole. The baffling member forms a plurality of gaps for directing the airflow from the first space.
Abstract:
This invention is directed to three coding sequences of the BRCA1 gene. The three coding sequences, BRCA1.sup.(omi1), BRCA1.sup.(omi2) and BRCA1.sup.(omi3) as well as their frequencies of occurrence are provided together with the protein sequences they code for. Another aspect of this invention is a method of determining the consensus sequence for any gene. Another aspect of the invention is a method of identifying an individual having an increased genetic susceptibility to breast or ovarian cancer because they have inherited a causative mutation in their BRCA1 gene. This invention is also related to a method of performing gene therapy with any of the isolated BRCA1 coding sequences.
Abstract:
Disclosed in the invention is a plastic-based composite material capable of conducting electricity and shielding electromagnetic wave. The plastic-based composite material is prepared from the following raw materials in parts by mass: 40 to 80 parts of plastic matrix, 5 to 15 parts of surface modified high-efficiency conductive agent, 10 to 40 parts of ferroferric oxide, 5 to 10 parts of compatibilizer, and 0.5 to 1 part of antioxidant. The product has good conductive property and mechanical properties, can shield the electromagnetic wave in a high degree, and can be widely applied to the fields of electronic consumer goods, remote monitoring/communication, military, and field/indoor power supply.
Abstract:
A housing structure includes a main cabinet and an engaging mechanism. The main cabinet has an opening formed on one side, and the main cabinet has a side panel and a latch. The opening can be covered up by the side panel, and the latch can be movably arranged on the side panel. The engaging mechanism includes a sliding member and an elastic member, and the sliding member can be slidably arranged on the main cabinet and is adjacent to the latch. A plurality of grooves is formed on the sliding member, and a plurality of hooks is formed correspondingly on the side panel. The sliding member can traverse between a default and a release position to assemble or dissemble the main cabinet.
Abstract:
A display housing includes a protective lens, a peripheral housing; and a strengthening member. The protective lens defines a latching slit along its perimeter. The strengthening member includes a base portion and a bent portion. One of the peripheral housing and the base portion has a plurality of latches protruding therefrom and the other a plurality of latching holes. The latches are received in the latching holes, the strengthening member is secured in the peripheral housing, and the bent portion is received in the latching slits.

Abstract:
A housing assembly is provided including a housing and a transparent display protective panel. The housing includes two parallel sides which defines two securing slots respectively. The two securing slots face and align with each other. The transparent display protective panel is secured into the two securing slots.
Abstract:
A consensus DNA sequence has been determined for the BRCA1 gene. As has been seven polymorphic sites and their rates of occurrence in normal BRCA1 genes. The consensus gene BRCA1.sup.(omi) and the seven polymorphic sites will provide greater accuracy and reliability for genetic testing. One skilled in the art will be better able to avoid misinterpretations of changes in the gene, determine the presence of a normal gene, and of mutations, and to classify tumors.
Abstract:
A metal injection molding process for manufacturing a MIM article with a final main body and a final threaded hole defined in the final main body, is provided. The metal injection molding process includes forming a green MIM article including a green body, the green body having the same shape as, but larger than the final main body; tapping the green body to define a green threaded hole in the green body, the green threaded hole having the same shape, but larger than the final threaded hole; debinding the green MIM article to remove the plastic binders from between the metal powders; and sintering the green MIM article to form the MIM article by shrinking the green body to form the final main body and shrinking the green threaded hole to form the final threaded hole.
