Abstract: The present teachings provide methods, compositions, and kits for quantifying target polynucleotides. In some embodiments, a reverse stem-loop ligation probe is ligated to the 3′ end of a target polynucleotide, using a ligase that can ligate the 3′ end of RNA to the 5′ end of DNA using a DNA template, such as T4 DNA ligase. Following digestion to form an elongated target polynucleotide with a liberated end, a reverse transcription reaction can be performed, followed by a PCR. In some embodiments, the methods of the present teachings can discriminate between polymorphic polynucleotides that vary by as little as one nucleotide.

Abstract: In a terminal 106 having a receiver 202 for receiving the signals from plural transmission sources 101-105 whose positions and transmission time offsets are unknown within the terminal, a method is provided for determining the change in the time at the terminal between two instants. At a first position of the terminal a first set of measurements, aligned to a first instant, of a signal parameter representative of the time or phase of receipt of said signals from said plural transmission sources relative to one or more of them, or to a reference, or to a terminal clock is obtained. Then at a second position of the terminal a corresponding second set of measurements, aligned to a second instant, of a signal parameter representative of the time or phase of receipt of said signals from said plural transmission sources relative to one or more of them, or to the reference, or to the terminal clock is also obtained. The aligned measurements of the first and second sets are combined, and the change in the time at the terminal between the first and second instants is calculated from the change in the combined aligned measurements of the first and second sets.

Abstract: In a structure of an ink tank having a deformable sheet that constitutes the tank and a spring for imparting a negative pressure, unstableness of the negative pressure attributable to the deformation of the sheet as a result of ink consumption is prevented. For this purpose, a plate-like member (109) is joined to a top section of a sheet (106) formed in a convex shape, and a spring member (107) for generating the negative pressure in a tank is mounted to the same member. This makes it possible to maintain a high volume ratio of the ink tank and to achieve stableness of the negative pressure by adequately regulating the deformation of the sheet (106) when the sheet is displaced in the direction of retracting toward the interior of the tank as a result of a reduction of the amount of ink in the tank.
