摘要:
An assay for detecting gene fragments, including: amplifying gene fragments comprising single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to form an initial amplification product; isolating single strand oligonucleotides of interest from the initial amplification product; forming a solution comprising the oligonucleotides of interest and reporter molecules, each reporter molecule having a first oligonucleotide domain configured to hybridize with a complementary oligonucleotide of interest, and a second oligonucleotide domain configured to hybridize with a complementary capture probe; hybridizing, in the solution, the oligonucleotides of interest with the reporter molecules that have complementary first domains; applying the solution to the surface of a microarray including an array of capture probes fixed to a microarray slide; capturing the oligonucleotides of interest on the microarray by hybridizing the second oligonucleotide domains of the reporter molecules with complementary capture probes of the microarray; and detecting the hybridized oligonucleotides of interest captured on the microarray.
摘要:
Complex workpieces, particularly aeronautical parts made of solid stock presenting a bottom wall and at least one stiffening rib transverse to the bottom wall, are machined using a device having a tool head furnished with a transmission component rotatable about a relative longitudinal axis, and a tool, typically a milling cutter, connected to the transmission component and capable of piercing the transverse rib. The longitudinal axis of the tool is disposed obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the transmission component so that the stiffening rib can be pierced at a point close to the bottom wall of the workpiece. The device also incorporates a feeler mechanism associated with the tool head and designed to engage the bottom wall during the movement of the tool toward the machining location, in such a way that the position of the tool head can be actively controlled and the tool deployed at a selected distance from the bottom wall.
摘要:
Workpieces of large dimensions, typically body pressings or fuselage panels, are supported and secured for machining by a device capable of movement in a vertical direction and adaptable thus to the particular geometry of the workpiece. The vertical movement is produced by a rod of which the top end carries a head incorporating a pivotable fixture mechanism, equipped with a suction cup connected to a source of negative pressure by way of a suction duct and activated to clamp the work once the head is in position.

Base compositions, methods of manufacturing base compositions and frozen food products including a base composition are described. According to one or more embodiments, a base composition for a frozen food product includes at least one insoluble fiber, at least one soluble fiber, at least one emulsifier and at least one stabilizer. In one or more aspects of the invention, methods are provided for processing the base composition with additional ingredients to provide flavor, sweetness and the like for a variety of frozen food products such as: frozen desserts; ice creams; gelato; and mousse, either confectionary, seafood-type or savory vegetable-type, with desirable organoleptic and stability properties. In one or more embodiments, base compositions and methods described herein are suitable for preparing many types of frozen food products ranging from dairy-type products to those having low-fat, low calorie, fruit flavors and the like.
摘要:
A toolhead for use on a multi-axis machine tool consists of a support assembly equipped with a pivoting spindle designed to accept a removable tool-holder, and centered on a machining axis about which a tool clamped to the tool-holder can be driven in rotation. Also forming part of the toolhead is a depth stop affording an active surface substantially transverse to the machining axis and positionable against a surface of a workpiece. The depth stop is mounted to the support assembly and capable of movement along the machining axis between a first position, distanced from the spindle, and a second position of proximity to the spindle. Transducers incorporated into the toolhead are able to sense the position of the active surface relative to the support assembly, and thus used to control the depth to which the workpiece is penetrated by the tool.
摘要:
A machine tool equipped with a supporting body and at least one tool-holder spindle, rotatable about a respective axis, also has a built-in dust extraction device comprising an extractor hood located in close proximity to the spindle and presenting a suction port positionable near to a machining area, so as to extract chips and dust generated in the course of machining operations; the hood is capable of movement along a direction parallel to the axis of rotation, extended and retracted by the action of respective translating members operating in conjunction with sensors able to read the profile of a workpiece, in such a way that the suction port can be positioned to best advantage.

The automatic machine tool comprises two parallel longitudinal guides supported by a plurality of columns standing on a base, the guides being slidably engaged with two parallel sliding crossbeams that mount respective machining units. The drive motion for the sliding crossbeams running in the guides is provided by linear electric motors.

A device for checking countersink dimensions comprises a measuring head (2) associated with a spindle (3) of a multi-axis process machine (4), and a processing unit operatively associated with the spindle (3) to control spindle movements, the measuring head (2) comprising a contact element (5) that can be inserted into a countersink (101) and a comparator element (7) which, by coming into contact with the countersink and withdrawing, detects the stroke of the contact element (5) inside the countersink (101). A floating member (22) automatically corrects any alignment errors between the contact element (5) and the axis of the countersink (101).
