Title: Improved methods of detecting viability-associated molecules
Inventor: WILSON STUART
IPC: C12Q1/25
Filed: 2006-07-03
Abstract: Kits and devices for performing a method of detecting a molecule associated with viability of one or more cells or organisms in a sample are provided. The method comprises the initial step of contacting the sample with an enzyme, which enzyme is capable of adding or removing a chemical moiety to or from a nucleic acid molecule in the presence of the molecule associated with viability of the one or more cells or organisms. This thereby generates a novel detectable nucleic acid molecule. The next step involves detecting the presence of the molecule associated with viability of the one or more cells or organisms by detecting the novel nucleic acid molecule generated only in the presence of the molecule associated with viability of the one or more cells or organisms. A most preferred molecule associated with viability is ATP, although NAD may also be detected. A preferred enzyme for use in the methods is ligase. The kits and devices for performing the method have numerous applications, in particular in monitoring viability of cells, toxicology testing and determining whether there is contamination in a sample or on a surface.

Abstract: A downlink time/frequency tracker for a receiver terminal, which may be mounted to a static platform on the earth, or to a dynamic platform, such as a ship. The tracker is operative to acquire and track time and frequency variations in time- and frequency-hopped synchronization signals from different data rate sources in a dynamic platform, such as a satellite. Characteristics of the Kalman filter are updated in accordance with data representative of timing error and frequency error measurements carried out on the synchronization signals, as well as data representative of local kinematic domain measurements carried out with respect to the receiver terminal. The Kalman filter outputs minimum mean square error estimates of timing and frequency errors in the receiver terminal's demodulator clock. These error estimates are used to synchronize the demodulator's clock with the clock embedded in the downlink signal, so as to enable demodulation and recovery of data.
