Patent EP-0629706-B1 (EP)
Inventor: KIEVTS TIM
IPC: C12Q1/6865

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved method for the amplification of nucleic acid. The invention is characterized in that ribonucleotides are introduced during amplification that weaken normal basepairing. Preferably the ribonucleotides are inosine-triphosphate nucleotides which partly substitute guanine-triphosphate nucleotides normally present in the amplification reaction mixture. The incorporation of nucleotides, during amplification, that weaken normal base pairing prevents the formation of secondary structures in the amplificate. The efficiency of the amplification is thereby increased. The introduction, during amplification, of nucleotides that weaken normal base pairing also results in an improved sensitivity during detection of the amplified nucleic acid, when the detection method comprises the hybridization of the amplified nucleic acid to a complementary sequence.

Abstract: Tantalum electrode material is produced which has extremely low tortuosity, exceptionally low ESL and ESR, potentially extended high frequency performance, very high volumetric efficiency, and reduced tantalum consumption per electrode. The electrode material is characterized by having a cross-section composed of plates of tantalum separated by spaced gaps resulting in a highly dense (volumetric efficiency) electrode. The plates are electrically interconnected which also adds to the structural stability of the article. This is made possible by being able to carefully control the geometry of the tantalum material during processing. A method for producing such material includes extruding a billet filled with a (preferentially geometrically uniform) mixture of rods of tantalum and an extrudable metal. When the billet has been sufficiently reduced in size and severed, the extrudable metal is removed by selectively dissolving with acid. In addition to the above advantages, the resulting article is particularly adapted for use in super-miniaturization applications.

Abstract: Diagnostic methods capable of discriminating between cell mediated immunologic responses due to on the one hand active tuberculosis caused by bacteria belonging to the tuberculosis complex (Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium africanum and Mycobacterium bovis) and on the other hand vaccination with an immunogenic agent conferring immunity to tuberculosis. A diagnostic kit is also provided, comprising a polypeptide (e.g. MPT64) capable of eliciting a delayed type hypersensitivity reaction (Dth) in animals with active tuberculosis, but not in animals vaccinated against TB with an immunogenic agent (e.g. M. bovis BCG strain: Danish 1331). Vaccination with certain BCG strains is thus possible without interfering with the diagnosis of active tuberculosis. Also provided are polypeptide fragments comprising a T-cell epitope of MPT64 as well as nucleic acid fragments encoding these polypeptide fragments.
