摘要:
The present invention is a multiple channel electrophoresis system which includes a multiple laser diode illumination source. The multiple laser diode illumination source has a plurality of individual laser diodes, each of which is situated so as to provide independent fluorescence inducing illumination to one of the electrophoresis channels in the multiple channel electrophoresis system. The channels in the multiple channel electrophoresis system can be of many embodiments. And use of the present invention system in a multiple angle light scattering mode is also described.
摘要:
The present invention is a system for nebulizing sample analyte containing solutions which allows liquid solution and gas entry, and is tyically utilized in combination or integration with an interface for directing sample analyte containing solution which is nebulized. The present invention provides improvement in the form of system design that prevents sample delivery tube component damage, sample solution electrical charging, sample solution "re-nebulization" effects, and sample analyte carry-over memory effects during a present invention method of use for introducing nebulized sample analyte containing solution into, for instance, a mass-spectrometer sample analysis system.

A long-path absorbance-cell optical imaging system, appropriate for use in cold vapor mercury analysis, which long-path absorbance-cell optical imaging system achieves decreased internal reflection mediated system-element-parameter-change-based sensitivity in use, by appropriate placement of apertures, is disclosed.
摘要:
Fractional-volatilization separation systems and methods are disclosed which enable a stable, continuous, non-bubbling liquid flow, essentially constant surface area/volume ratio, temperature controlled, fractional volatilization of volatile/semi-volatile components in a liquid analyte or component containing sample. The fractional volatilization separator system can be utilized in small scale analytical and large scale chemical purification, concentration and desalinization applications. Continuous rapid removal of residual liquid sample can provide concentrated non-volatile component/analyte solution, and allows quick and easy washout between sequential use with different liquid samples. Examples of relevant analytical chemistry applications of the present invention system are found in conjunction with long-path absorbance-cell "cold-vapor" mercury analyzers, cold vapor mercury fluorescense photometers, infrared spectrophotometers, organic mass spectrometers, plasma emission spectrometers, and plasma mass spectrometers.
摘要:
The present invention facilitates improvements in laser ablation of solid samples to be analyzed by an external inductively coupled plasma (ICP) emission spectrometer, ICP/mass-spectrometer (ICP-MS), or flowing afterglow (FAG) mass spectrometer (FAG-MS) for elemental analysis (ICP and ICP-MS) or molecular analysis (FAG-MS). A novel invention mirror-with-hole beam combiner eliminates chromatic aberration in the invention sample view and allows rad-hardening the laser ablation invention for use in a radiation hot cell for analysis of high activity nuclear waste. Many other novel invention rad-hardening attributes facilitate a comprehensive rad-hardened laser ablation system (the world's first). In other embodiments, invention novelties include unusually large homogeneous focused laser spot diameters, unusually long laser objective lens focal length, wide range operationally variable laser path length with built-in re-alignment, operationally variable demagnification ratio and diameter of the focused laser spot, the use of significantly higher powered SMR lasers in a large spot diameter to facilitate high sensitivity bulk analysis of solid samples, a demountable and gravitationally self-sealing stack assembly laser ablation cell, and the world's first auto-samplers (mechanized sample changers) for analytical laser ablation.

摘要:
The present invention is for valved musical wind instruments in the musical keys of BB-flat, CC, E-flat, and F with progressive cylindrical mid-section bore or gradual conical mid-section bore expansion or a combination, not to exceed 0.85 inch bore within the first 65% of instrument length and bell throat diameters not to exceed 3 inches measured 10 inches from the bell flare, in which bass trombone tone qualities prevail. Progressive mid-section bore is novel, enhances responsiveness, and enables “early” valve placement options. A 4-valve B-flat bass valve trombone, B-flat cimbasso, or B-flat Tu-Bone is claimed, and may have a single constant cylindrical mid-section bore, or progressive cylindrical mid-section bore or gradual conical mid-section bore expansion or a combination. A valved B-flat bass inverted full double trombone, cimbasso, or Tu-Bone is claimed, as well as a “compensated” version and a full double euphonium. Invention valves may be any piston or rotary valves.
