Abstract: The present invention provides labeling reagents and methods for labeling primary antibodies and for detecting a target in a sample using an immuno-labeled complex that comprises a target-binding antibody and one or more labeling reagents. The labeling reagents comprise monovalent antibody fragments or non-antibody monomeric proteins whereby the labeling proteins have affinity for a specific region of the target-binding antibody and are covalently attached to a label. Typically, the labeling reagent is an anti-Fc Fab or Fab' fragment that was generated by immunizing a goat or rabbit with the Fc fragment of an antibody. The present invention provides for discrete subsets of labeling reagent and immuno-labeled complexes that facilitate the simultaneous detection of multiple targets in a sample wherein the immuno-labeled complexes are distinguished by i) a ratio of label to labeling reagent, or ii) a physical property of said label, or iii) a ratio of labeling reagent to said target-binding antibody, or iv) by said target-binding antibody. This is particularly useful for fluorophore labels that can be attached to labeling reagents and subsequently immuno-labeled complexes in ratios for the detection of multiple targets.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un joint d'arrêt actionné thermiquement pour un arbre pivotant ayant une voie d'écoulement liquide annulaire étroite entourant l'arbre. Le joint entoure l'arbre avec l'anneau interposé en fonctionnement normal et est comprimé contre l'arbre lorsque l'arbre ralentit ou arrête de tourner. L'anneau est maintenu ouvert en fonctionnement normal par un écarteur interposé entre les extrémités opposées d'un anneau fendu. Lorsque l'arbre arrête de tourner, la température de l'anneau augmente ce qui actionne le retrait de l'écarteur hors de l'anneau fendu, comprimant ainsi l'anneau fendu contre l'arbre bloquant l'anneau. L'anneau bloqué provoque un différentiel de pression à travers le joint qui comprime un anneau joint de polymère, en aval de l'anneau fendu, contre l'arbre qui ferme l'anneau de façon étanche. Dans un mode de réalisation, l'écarteur est formé par un matériau fusible. Dans un second mode de réalisation, l'écarteur est retiré de l'anneau fendu par un actionneur thermoréactif.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods, software, devices and APIs for defining touch events for application level software. Furthermore, some embodiments are directed to simplifying the recognition of single and multiple touch events for applications running in multi-touch enabled devices. To simplify the recognition of single and multiple touch events, each view within a particular window can be configured as either a multi-touch view or a single touch view. Furthermore, each view can be configured as either an exclusive or a non-exclusive view. Depending on the configuration of a view, touch events in that and other views can be either ignored or recognized. Ignored touches need not be sent to the application. Selectively ignoring touches can allow for simpler software elements that do not take advantage of advanced multi touch features to be executed at the same device and time as more complex software elements.

Abstract: In a multilayer optical disc having information layers conforming to a plurality of different optical disc standards, because the type of each information layer is not recorded in the other information layers, in read and write operations by a compatible optical disc device conforming to a plurality of optical disc standards, every time the information layer being accessed changes, it has been necessary to read the type of the information layer and select a method of generating a tracking error signal adapted to the type of information layer, so access has taken time.  In order to solve the above problem, in the optical multilayer disc according to the present invention, having information layers conforming to a plurality of different optical disc standards, in an area in one of the information layers, information about the other information layers is recorded. The time required to access the other information layers can be reduced by using this information to select a tracking error signal generating method.
