Title: Methods of detecting an analyte in a sample
Inventor: ROTHACKER JULIE ANNE
IPC: C12Q1/48
Filed: 2005-11-16
Abstract: The invention relates to methods for detecting an analyte in a sample. The methods rely on the activity of polymerases upon polynucleotide substrates which are linked to a molecule, for example an antibody, which binds the analyte. Activity of the polymerases can be detected by the incorporation of suitably labelled nucleotides, and/or the incorporation of hapten conjugated nucleotides capable of binding a suitably labelled ligand of the hapten.

Title: Non-disconnectable positive luer-lock connector
Inventor: KRUEGER PETER
IPC: A61M39/10
Filed: 2007-10-16
Abstract: The invention concerns a positive Luer-lock connector to connect all standardised negative Luer-lock connectors with a Luer taper, a rear shaft joining the Luer taper and a lock's thread. Such detachable connectors are available with various designs. Especially when administering toxic and generally environmentally hazardous media, like for example cytostatic agents, it is desirable to prevent any disconnection of the Luer-lock connection, so that neither patients, nor personnel would get into contact with it. According to the invention this is achieved by that the connector has cogs effectively joined with the lock's thread and that a capping sleeve is placed undetachably from and rotatably on the shaft, the capping sleeve having on its inside counter-cogs matching the cogs, while the cogs and counter-cogs are so constructed, that in a first direction of rotation they engage one another in an arresting manner so that to lock the Luer-lock connection of the capping sleeve on the shaft, in a second direction of rotation, that is opposing the first direction of rotation, they slide off one another in a free-wheeling manner.

IPC: G06G7/48
Filed: 2005-11-21
Abstract: A method for enhancing the allocation of fluid flow rates among a plurality of well bores in fluid communication with at least one subterranean reservoir is disclosed (24). An objective function and system equations are generated which utilize constraint violation penalties associated with soft constraints. The soft constraints are constraints which may be violated if necessary to arrive at a feasible solution to optimizing the objective function and the system equations. The fluid flow rates are then allocated among the well bores (30) as determined by the optimizing of the objective function and system equations. Fluid flow rates among well bores (30), particularly those exhibiting similar fluid characteristics, may be related to one another.  Initial flow rates of components (oil, gas, and water) and pressures in the well bores (30) may be determined by an initial simulation run.
