Title: Protein arrays for allelic variants and uses thereof
Inventor: BLACKBURN JONATHAN DAVID
IPC: B01J19/00
Filed: 2002-12-05
Granted: 2008-04-03
Abstract: The invention describe protein arrays and their use to assay, in a parallel fashion, the protein products of highly homologous or related DNA coding sequences. By highly homologous or related it is meant those DNA coding sequences which share a common sequence and which differ only by one or more naturally occurring mutations such as single nucleotide polymorphisms, deletions or insertions, or those sequences which are considered to be haplotypes (a haplotype being a combination of variations or mutations on a chromosome, usually within the context of a particular gene). Such highly homologous or related DNA coding sequences are generally naturally occurring variants of the same gene. Arrays according to the invention have multiple for example, two or more, individual proteins deposited in a spatially defined pattern on a surface in a form whereby the properties, for example the activity or function of the proteins can be investigated or assayed in parallel by interrogation of the array.

Title: Duct grease deposit detection devices, systems, and methods
Inventor: SCHROCK DEREK W
IPC: G01N1/00

Granted: 2013-05-23
Abstract: Automatic devices that determine when pollutant deposits have accumulated in ductwork may be employed to notify maintenance personnel or automated cleaning equipment of the need for ducts to cleaned or replaced. Various detection devices may be employed to detect a property of accumulated grease and generate an indication of an accumulation. The detection device may present a surface to the fume stream inside a duct. The surface may be cooled to a temperature that represents a worst case temperature so that the accumulation due to condensation on the detector surface is at least as high as the coolest surface in the ductwork which is being monitored. Alternatively, the detection device may be located external to the duct. The detection device may interrogate the surface of the duct through contact or noncontact measurements to determine the thickness of an accumulated grease layer on the interior of the duct.
