Abstract: A hybrid polypeptide composed of an identification peptide and a desired functional protein are produced by recombinant DNA techniques. A DNA expression vector is constructed that includes segments of DNA coding for the identification peptide and the desired functional protein. The identification peptide consists of a specific sequence of amino acids that has the desired affinity for a non-antibody capture protein. This peptide maybe linked to either the amino or carboxyl terminal of the functional protein. The identification peptide may or may not contain a sequence of amino acids that can be fragmented by sequence specific proteases or chemical agents to yield the native protein. The hybrid polypeptide produced by either cell or cell-free based expression systems is now suitable for further processing. This fusion protein can be purified by affinity chromatographic techniques using an immobilized non-antibody capture protein that has the desired affinity for the identification peptide. Alternately the capture protein may contain a label that will allow for the tracking of the functional protein in the system being studied.

Abstract: A method of establishing yield and moisture content maps involves the continuous recording of yield of moisture content of a harvested crop, as a harvesting machine traverses a field. The recorded yield or moisture content is associated with data from a positioning system, in order that a map of yield or moisture content across the field can be generated. The yield or moisture content is compared with a second measurement of yield or moisture content, and a correction factor is determined. The correction factor is applied to the first yield or moisture content data in order to produce a more accurate yield or moisture content map.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring changes in microviscosity serving as an immune test, whereby a liquid sample contains a specific reaction constituent such as antigens or antibodies, which possibly lead to the formation of immune complexes, and contains magnetic microparticles. The inventive method is characterized in that the sample consisting of a first reaction constituent and of inert magnetic particles is irradiated with a stabilized laser and has a stabilized temperature. In addition, the sample is located in a transparent microcuvette (4), the contents of the microcuvette (4) are exposed to a homogeneous, stabilized and pulsed magnetic field, and the magnetic microparticles are moved with the aid of the pulsed magnetic field. Registerable intensity fluctuations of the speckle patterns are converted into electrical signals, which can be clearly associated with the microviscosity. A second reaction constituent was subsequently added to the contents of the microcuvette. In the event of the formation of immune complexes, the increasing microviscosity is used for qualifying and quantizing the immune complexes.
