Abstract:
Methods and kits for isolating RNA are provided that enable rapid RNA preparation from biological sources. In one aspect, RNA is isolated from difficult plant tissues and cells that contain high levels of secondary metabolites, without employing organic extraction or salt precipitation procedures. This method employs novel lysing and binding conditions to allow preparation of RNA free from secondary metabolites.

Abstract:
Method of joining a semiconductor chip to a chip carrier by cementing or soldering which includes treating an area of the semiconductor chip to be joined to the carrier with a laser beam, adjusting the energy of the laser beam to produce depressions by localizing melting of the semiconductor material of the chip and to at least partially pile melted semiconductor material at the edge of the depression, and applying cement or solder between the treated area of the semiconductor chip and the carrier.
Abstract:
Sensor with polycrystalline silicon resistors which are applied to a substrate and are covered with a dielectric passivating layer, characterized by the feature that the resistors are thermally adapted by targeted adjustment of their dopings and by suitable healing, and are balanced by laser trimming.
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for the reduction of endotoxins in a plasmid preparation using a carbohydrate non-ionic detergent with silica chromatography.
Abstract:
A multi-purpose terminal device is adapted for connection to a data processing system, an automatic text processing unit and/or a communication network. An input and control keyboard is provided for controlling connections and for adding information to the information provided by a plurality of devices. A hard copy input is provided and optically coupled to a hard copy output for producing local copies. A branching device connects the hard copy input to an interface with the external units. A memory is also provided for storing data read from masters, buffering data coming from the external units and for intermediate storage of data during processing operations.
