摘要:
New electron transfer moiety labeled nucleic acid analogue probes are provided that can be used in methods for determining nucleic acids in a sample. The new probes can be prepared using novel monomer subunits in a chemical synthesis route. The nucleic acids can be determined by binding the probe molecules to the nucleic acid and inducing electron transfer within the complex formed. The occurrence of the electron transfer is determined as a measure of the nucleic acid.

The present invention is directed to novel double-stranded short interfering (siRNA) analogues comprising locked nucleic acid (LNA) monomers. Such compounds induces sequence-specific post-transcriptional gene silencing in many organisms by a process known as RNA interference (RNAi). The compounds disclosed herein has improved properties compared to non-modified siRNAs and may, accordingly, be useful as therapeutic agents, e.g., in the treatment of various cancer forms. More particularly, the present invention is directed to siRNA analogues comprising a sense strand and an antisense strand, wherein each strand comprises 12-35 nucleotides and wherein the siRNA analogues comprise at least one locked nucleic acid (LNA) monomer.

The present invention is directed to novel oligonucleotides with improved antisense properties. The novel oligonucleotides comprise at least one Locked Nucleic Acid (LNA) selected from beta-D-thio/amino-LNA or alpha-L-oxy/thio/amino-LNA. The oligonucleotides comprising LNA may also include DNA and/or RNA nucleotides. The present invention also provides a new class of pharmaceuticals which comprise antisense oligonucleotides and are useful in antisense therapy.

The present invention relates to large scale preparation of LNA phosphoramidites using a 2-cyanoethyl-N,N,N′,N′-tetra-substituted phosphoramidite and a nucleophilic activator, e.g. 2-cyanoethyl-N,N,N′,N′-tetraisopropylphosphoramidite and 4,5-dicyanoimidazole. The method is faster and more cost efficient that previously known methods.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of purifying a flow of a gas, in particular an exhaust gas from a Diesel engine, which is contaminated with a particulate material (e.g. nanoparticles) using an apparatus comprising (i) a conduit for passage of the gas flow, (ii) means for applying electromagnetic radiation, e.g. microwaves, and (iii) means for supplying a dipolar liquid, e.g. water, said method comprising the steps of allowing the contaminated gas to flow through the conduit; and applying the electromagnetic radiation to said gas and said liquid. The invention also relates to an apparatus, e.g. a diesel engine exhaust system for purifying a continuous exhaust gas flow contaminated with particulate material(s), e.g. nanoparticles, in order to reduce the content of nanoparticles.
