Title: Solution-phase dual hybridization assay for detecting polynucleotide sequences
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1986-02-11
Abstract: A dual hybridization assay method for detecting the presence of a particular polynucleotide sequence in a test sample wherein hybridization is accomplished in a solution phase. Two soluble polynucleotide probes are employed which hybridize to mutually exclusive portions of the sequence to be detected. The first, or separation, probe comprises a reactive site for a reaction partner, preferably a binding site (e.g., biotin) for a binding substance (e.g., avidin). After hybridization, the resulting solution is contacted with an immobilized form of the reaction partner whereby dual hybrids comprising the sequence to be detected and the detection and separation probes become immobilized. The immobilized fraction is then separated and the detection probe determined in one of the separated fractions. Preferably, the detection probe is labeled such as with a specifically bindable ligand, e.g., biotin or a hapten, and is detectable by binding of a labeled binding partner, e.g., enzyme-labeled avidin or antibody. The assay method has the advantages of a dual hybridization technique plus the kinetic and manipulative advantages of a solution-phase assay.

IPC: H01J61/36
Filed: 1986-06-03
Abstract: The present invention provides a ceramic arc tube seal 
comprising an electrical feed-through or conductive inlead 
for a high-intensity discharge lamp having a high pressure 
gas discharge tube made of polycrystalline aluminum oxide 
(PCA). The conductive inlead is formed in a frusto-conical 
shape such that a mating relationship is created with tapered 
apertures in the opposed ends of the PCA tube. A seal is 
provided between the conductive inlead and the PCA tube 
such that exposure of the sealing frit glass to the inner 
chamber of the discharge tube and its fill constituents is 
substantially reduced or ideally prevented. An additional 
benefit provided by this invention is improved alignment and 
centering of the electrode that is supported by the conduc­
tive inlead in the discharge tube.

Abstract: A position input system for a vehicular navigation 
apparatus includes an input unit (1) for inputting a 
desired destination and a present position, a memory 
unit (4) for storing desired destination information and 
map information, and a display unit (3) for outputting the

response to input information from the input unit (1). The 
map information is indicative of intersections and a 
geographical point located between intersections and 
possessing useful guidance information. A desired 
destination and present position are capable of being 
inputted by setting the useful guidance information 
between a road leading to and a road leading from the 
geographical point. This makes it possible to enter 
position simply and accurately. Positions are precise 
since they are selected from pre-stored information 
relating to geographical locations. Vehicle direction 
can also be inputted in accurate fashion where parking 
lot exits and intersections are concerned.

Abstract: The present invention provides a disposable manifold plate 
for use in conjunction with a conventional 96 well microtiter 
plate. The manifold plate has 96 wells formed therein and closed 
at the bottom by a plate or plates with provision for withdrawal 
of filtrate by vacuum. Each manifold plate has a self-contained 
vacuum manifold. Depending from the lower surface of each well 
bottom plate are a plurality of skirt members, each skirt member 
being axially aligned with one of the wells of the manifold plate 
and having formed therein a filtrate discharge passage. The 
skirts are of such a length that they will enter into the 
collection wells of a conventional multiwell collection plate at 
a point approximately 1-2 mm below the lip or upper surface of 
the collection plate thus enabling the separate collection of 
filtrate from each of the various wells of the manifold plate. 
The skirt means also functions as a guide for receiving a punch. 
At the completion of filtration the manifold plate may be 
inverted and, by use of the punch, a circular section of the 
filter medium is removed from each well, along with a circular 
blank cut from the bottom of the well bottom plate. This 
apparatus and method is applicable to a wide range of biological 
and biochemical analyses.
