Abstract: Chemiluminescent bioassays for the presence or concentration of an analyte in a sample use 1,2-dioxetanes as substrates for the enzyme of an enzyme complex that bind to the analyte. The chemiluminescence obtained from the decomposition of the dioxetane triggered by the enzyme through the formation of the corresponding 1,2-dioxetane oxyanion of the enzyme complex is enhanced by the addition of TBQ as an enhancement agent. Other polymeric quaternary onium salts can be used as enhancement agents in conjunction with enhancement additives which improve the ability of the enhancement agent to form hydrophobic regions in the aqueous sample, in which regions the 1,2-dioxetane oxyanion and its chemiluminescent decomposition products can be sequestered. A kit for performing such assays is also provided.

Date Feb. 2, 1995An osmotic device that, following the imbibement of water vapor, provides for the controlled release of a beneficial agent to an aqueous environment. The device comprises a hydrophilic formulation including a beneficial agent, and if needed, an osmagent, surrounded by a wall. The wall is formed at least in part of a semipermeable hydrophobic membrane having an average pore size between about 0.1  mu m and 30  mu m. The pores are substantially filled with a gas phase. The hydrophobic membrane is permeable to water in the vapor phase and the hydrophobic membrane is impermeable to an aqueous medium at a pressure less than about 100 Pa. The beneficial agent is released, for example, by osmotic pumping or osmotic bursting upon imbibement of sufficient water vapor into the device core. These devices minimize incompatibilities between the beneficial agent and ions (such as hydrogen or hydroxyl) or other dissolved or suspended materials in the aqueous medium, since contact between the beneficial agent and the aqueous medium does not occur until after the beneficial agent is released. This results from the semipermeable membrane's selective permeability for water vapor. In addition, the high water fluxes attendant with these vapor-permeable membranes facilitate the delivery of beneficial agents having low solubilities, and the delivery of high dosages of beneficial agents.

The vehicle is carried by two support cables (12,13) on pulleys (18) fitted the roof of the vehicle, on either side. The roof of the vehicle is below the plane of the two cables. The distance between the roof and the cables is sufficient to allow several tractor cables to lie between the two support cables at a slightly lower level than the plane of the support cables. The tractor cables pass round return pulleys at winder stations. Different cables allow different vehicles to be drawn at differing speeds, and vehicles to be stationary while others are moving.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of making a laminated substrate for use in an immunodiagnostic device and a machine or apparatus for marking the substrate with reagent. The method of forming the laminated substrate creates a rollable chromatographic medium. The chromatographic medium can be biphasic or multiphasic. The biphasic chromatographic medium comprises a capture medium precast onto a plastic backing and a release medium. The release and capture media are bonded to a liner material such as a plastic film. The multiphasic chromatographic medium comprises a capture medium precast onto a plastic backing, a release medium, and a sample absorbent medium. The capture medium, the release medium and the sample absorbent medium are disposed on a liner material such as a plastic film. The biphasic and multiphasic laminates are prepared for use as immunoassays by a specially adapted machine or apparatus. The machine includes a leader, an unwind system, a reagent dispensing system, a substrate reject marking system, a drying system, and a rewind system. In one exemplary embodiment, the machine applies four reagents to the substrate. The particular reagents used in the machine will vary depending upon the immunoassay to be performed.
