摘要:
A versatile reagent with a non-nucleotide monomeric unit having a ligand, and first and second coupling groups which are linked to the non-nucleotide monomeric unit. The ligand can be either a chemical moiety, such as a label or intercalator, or a linking arm which can be linked to such a moiety. Such reagent permits preparation of versatile nucleotide/non-nucleotide polymers, having any desired sequence of nucleotide and non-nucleotide monomeric units, each of the latter of which bear a desired ligand. These polymers can for example, be used as probes which can exhibit enhanced sensitivity and/or which are capable of detecting a genus of nucleotides each species of which has a common target nucleotide sequence of interest bridged by different sequences not of interest.

An implantable dental screw comprising (i) an elongated body portion, which comprises a distal end and an external surface, which is axially threaded, (ii) a top portion, which is connected to the body portion at an end opposite to the distal end, and which comprises a proximal end, which comprises a seat that engages a tool for securing the screw into an osseotomy site and a chamfer that engages a dental prosthesis, and an external surface, (iii) at least one core channel disposed longitudinally within the screw and open at the proximal end and, optionally, at the distal end, and (iv) a plurality of delivery channels disposed within the body portion, each of which connects a core channel with the exterior of the screw; and a method of implanting the dental screw into a patient.
摘要:
A method and computer program product are presented for selecting and arranging an appropriate combination of network components, or elements, in a communications network. The selection of network components is done in a manner that maximizes the net present value of cash flow resulting from the provision of communications services between nodes of the network. The method comprises the steps of receiving information that constrains network design and price establishment, and then using the constraint information to select a combination of network components for each link in the communications network. According to the invention, the selection of network components is performed for each of several successive time periods, effectively planning the evolution of the network. The selections are made so that the network components satisfy demand over time while maximizing the net present value of the cash flow that results from the provision of communications services.

摘要:
Compositions and methods are provided for the detection of small RNA target nucleic acids, preferably miRNA target nucleic acids, wherein the compositions and methods provide for sensitive and specific detection of the target nucleic acids. The compositions and methods include using one or more of a first amplification oligomer that is preferably an extender primer, a target capture oligomer that is preferably at least partially double stranded, a promoter primer/provider, a reverse primer that is preferably a universal primer and a detection probe. The compositions and methods are useful for diagnostics, prognostics, monitoring the effectiveness of treatment and/or determining a treatment.
摘要:
A multiple sprocket chain guide includes a guide structure mounted onto the movable metal cage of a conventional front bicycle derailleur such that the entire guide structure moves between inner and outer gear positions with the movable cage. The guide structure includes opposing outer and inner guide plates and a bridge that is rigidly connected between the guide plates to define a chain guide channel for directing the bicycle's chain onto a selected front sprocket. When the derailleur is positioned to guide the chain onto the outer front sprocket, the outer guide plate is positioned over the outer bash guard such that a gap there between is smaller than the height of the chain, thereby preventing derailment. When the derailleur is positioned to guide the chain onto the inner front sprocket, the inner guide plate is positioned over an inner plate to prevent derailment in a similar manner.
摘要:
Methods are provide for determining the relative amounts of individual polynucleotides in a complex mixture. The polynucleotides, after fluorescent labeling, are contacted under hybridization conditions with an array having element disposed at discrete locations on a substrate. The elements comprise two or more distinct polynucleotides that are combined prior to arraying. The level of fluorescence associated with each element provides a measure of its relative amount in the mixture.
