Abstract: SAMPLE WELL INSERT FORMING WEDGE-SHAPED WELLS       FOR ULTRA-THIN SLAB GELS IN ELECTROPHORESIS                         ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A comb to be used for holding samples and defining sample lanes in an ultra-thin slab gel in vertical slab gel electrophoresis is constructed with to form tapered or wedged-shaped sample wells, with the narrowest edge of the wedge opening into the upper edge of the gel. In one embodiment, the comb has a wedge-shaped profile along the contact edge to provide an expanded well at each sample location. Notches alternating with grooves are cut into the wedge shape to form teeth which taper along orthogonal axes, the wells being defined by the space between each adjacent pair of teeth. The gel enclosure which holds the slab gel is formed by plates which are shaped along one edge to provide a complementary wedge-shaped opening leading into the gel space. The comb fits snugly into the opening with the teeth of the comb touching or extending a short distance into the upper exposed surface of the gel. In another embodiment, the comb has arectangular profile, with grooves cut to a varying depth to form the wedge shape.

IPC: C22C38/48
Filed: 1993-12-08
Abstract: A new and useful predictor for maraging stainless steel alloys is created, called the martensite finish temperature, M f (o F). This formula enables one to predict the temperature at which a steel is entirely converted to martensite, and is described as M f = 1027 - 78% Ni - 27% Ti - 34% Mo. A desirable needle alloy for this amount is nickel at 10%, molybdenum at about 2.70, and titanium at about 2%.

IPC: A61P31/04
Filed: 1992-06-02
Abstract: A mutated mycobacterium selected from the class consisting of mutated M.bovis-BCG, mutated M.tuberculosis, and mutated M.leprae. The mutation of M.bovis-BCG, M.tuberculosis, or M.leprae is preferably effected through an insertional mutation of a mycobacterial gene.

Title: Process for production of glass preform for optical fiber
Inventor: ITO MASUMI
IPC: C03B8/04
Filed: 1994-03-01
Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved process for providing the production of a glass preform for an optical fiber which includes substantially no bubbles therein and also which has a substantially uniform shape. The process for the production of a glass preform which comprises at least silica for an optical fiber is comprised of producing a body comprising a rod on which fine glass particles are deposited, preferably by a vapour phase reaction and heating the body to vitrify the body under a reduced atmosphere or a vacuum so that the glass preform is produced. The process includes a first heating step of degassing the body at a first heating temperature, a second heating step of shrinking the body at a second heating temperature which is higher than the first heating temperature and which is lower than a third heating temperature, and a third heating step of vitrifying the shrunken body at the third temperature which corresponds to a vitrification temperature of the fine glass particles so as to produce the glass preform.
