Abstract: The invention relates to a container (1) of wipes with a dispensing nozzle (20). A housing (2A, 2B) is provided containing wipes (10). The wipes (10) formed on a continuous sheet of impregnated material with spaced lines of perforations (11) dividing the sheet of material into wipes. A dispensing nozzle (20) extends from the housing. The nozzle (20) is formed with a resilient aperture (21) through which wipes can be withdrawn from the housing.  The resilient aperture (21) is expandable to allow withdrawal of (wipes 10) therethrough, but is biased towards a contracted state. In use a wipe can be withdrawn through the nozzle and separated by rupturing the perforations joining the wipe to a next adjacent wipe with the nozzle expanding as required to allow passage of the wipe through the nozzle aperture. The nozzle contracts around the tail of the next adjacent wipe to prevent release of moisture from the inside of the housing and to help prevent wicking of moisture from a wipe tail.

Abstract: A method for extracting proteins from heterogeneous fluids by precipitation using microfluidics. The method uses a digital microfluidic device having an array of discrete actuating electrodes formed on a substrate surface, a hydrophobic working surface coating the substrate surface and array of discrete actuating electrodes, an actuating electrode controller for exciting or de-exciting discrete actuating electrodes for translating liquid droplets over the hydrophobic working surface. Droplets containing protein are dispensed onto positions on the hydrophobic working surface, and droplets containing a protein precipitant are deposited as well. All the drops are translated to one or more corresponding designated protein extraction positions on the hydrophobic working surface where they mix. The mixed drops are incubated at the extraction positions to precipitate the protein contained in the droplets to separate the precipitated protein from a drop of supernatant above the precipitate. Supernatant drops are removed and the precipitants are washed and then precipitants are dried.  The method uses an automated protocol for precipitation of proteins onto surfaces, rinsing the precipitates to remove impurities, and resolubilization in buffer for further analysis. The method is compatible with proteins representing a range of different physicochemical properties, as well as with complex mixtures such as fetal bovine serum and cell lysate.

Abstract: Disclosed are compositions and methods for providing fluid-loss control in subterranean wells. Well-completion fluids contain fine particulate additives whose glass-transition temperatures are below the anticipated bottomhole temperature. The particles soften upon injection into the well, whereupon they soften and become deformable. The particles then migrate to the borehole wall and form a seal that reduces further fluid flow from the borehole into the formation. The additive may be supplied as a powder or in the form of a liquid suspension.
