Patent AU-728343-B2 (AU)
Title: Reaction vessels
Inventor: LEE MARTIN ALAN
IPC: B01L/
Filed: 1997-11-20
Granted: 2001-01-04
Abstract: A reaction vessel for holding reagents is described, which vessel comprises an electrically conducting polymer capable of emitting heat when an electric current is passed through it. Suitably the reaction vessel comprises a reagent container, such as a capillary tube, slide or chip, in close contact with the electrically conducting polymer. For example, the polymer may be in the form of a film which is wrapped around the tube to form a sheath. This provides a readily controllable heating supply which may be heated and cooled to desired temperatures rapidly.  An apparatus suitable for thermal cycling reactions, such as the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and comprising one or more reaction vessels as described above, as well as methods for carrying out such reactions are also described and claimed.

Title: Low depth nestable tray for cans or the like
Inventor: APPS WILLIAM P
IPC: B65D71/70
Filed: 1993-10-20
Granted: 1997-03-13
Abstract: A low depth nestable tray for holding cans of similar capacities and body diameters but with varying top and bottom rim diameters. The tray has structural features that prevent spreading or fraying of the walls. The tray comprises a floor, a band around the periphery of the tray and columns interconnecting the band to the floor. Nesting ledges are disposed on columns and on corner posts of the wall structure. The ledges are equal in height and act as supports for the weight of a stack of nested empty trays which prevents the walls from having to support the weight and results in the walls maintaining their shape and structural integrity. The floor is configured with support areas for the containers and has features for accommodating bottom rims of varying diameters. The support areas have a circular groove for engaging the bottoms of cans and the bottom surface of the floor has downwardly projecting redoubts for facilitating stacking and handling of trays loaded with cans. One set of redoubts are located to be disposed inside the top rims of cans and a second set of redoubts are located to be disposed between the top rims of cans in a loaded tray therebeneath.
