摘要:
A rapid diagnostic test system or process uses a gated measurement of the fluorescent light from quantum dots after shutting off an illuminating light source. A delay between shutting off the illumination and measuring allows background fluorescence from substances other than the quantum dots to drop significantly when compared to the intensity of the fluorescence from the quantum dots. Using quantum dots permits high measurement repetition rates and good extinction of background fluorescence.

The present invention allows an applicant to apply for an account based service via a network connection. When an applicant applies for the account based service, he or she is supplied with features that enhance the value of the account based service. The applicant may select from the features provided, determine how this selection may affect the value of the account based service in relation to its cost and determine if he or she wishes to receive the account based service with the added features. Examples of account based services include credit cards, insurance accounts and telecommunications accounts.

The invention provides barcode libraries and methods of making and using them including obtaining a plurality of nucleic acid constructs in which each construct comprises a unique N-mer and a functional N-mer and segregating the constructs into a fluid compartments such that each compartment contains one or more copies of a unique construct. The invention further provides methods for digital PCR and for use of barcode libraries in digital PCR.
摘要:
An insert comprising a lightweight structure configured for filling the gaps between axially spaced C-shaped lamination stacks and circumferentially spaced non-magnetic cradles on a permanent magnet rotor. The insert is secured to a rib by a dovetail tongue that fits within a dovetail groove provided along the length of each rib. The insert engages the adjacent cradles and has a circumferential surface that has the same radius of curvature as the top surface of the cradles.
摘要:
A dynamically configurable list management system that supports list elements of multiple content types is presented. Each list element is associated with an element type via an element type identifier. The element type identifier uniquely identifies the element type to the list management system. Each property associated with each element type is included in the list. Each property is identified by a unique property identifier. When adding a list element of a new element type to an existing list that does not include any elements of the new element type, the list management system identifies every property associated with the new element type. For each property associated with the new element type, the list management system determines which properties are not already included in the list, and adds those properties that are not already including to the list.

Apparatus (20) for carrying out a prophylactic or treatment procedure on tissue comprises a device (21) having a chamber (22) and at least one active element such as an electrode (23) within the chamber (22). The chamber (22) has an opening (26) through which tissue is drawn into the chamber (22). Means for drawing the tissue into the chamber may comprise a vacuum lumen with vacuum orifices (25) in the chamber (22). Treatment such as electroporation may be applied to tissue in the chamber (22).
摘要:
Devices, systems, kits, and methods for detecting and/or identifying a plurality of spectrally labeled bodies well-suited for performing multiplexed assays. By spectrally labeling the beads with materials which generate identifiable spectra, a plurality of beads may be identified within the fluid. Reading of the beads is facilitated by restraining the beads in arrays, and/or using a focused laser.
摘要:
A method of performing a handover as shown in FIGS. 2-3 for a mobile station in a multicellular environment including the steps of determining to handover from one of the plurality of microcells to the macrocell, performing handover from the one of the plurality of microcells to the macrocell; and sending a false neighbor list to the mobile station.
摘要:
The invention generally relates to droplet based digital PCR and methods for analyzing a target nucleic acid using the same. In certain embodiments, methods of the invention involve forming sample droplets containing, on average, a single target nucleic acid, amplifying the target in the droplets, excluding droplets containing amplicon from the target and amplicon from a variant of the target, and analyzing target amplicons.
摘要:
A method of slip casting wherein reduced pressure is applied to the mold during casting by virtue of a network of piping extending through the mold. The mold has an impermeable outer coating. Heat may also be applied to the mold during casting, by for example a heated fluid passing through piping located in the walls of the mold.
