Inventor: WU JIE
IPC: G01N27/02
Filed: 2013-01-22
Abstract: Systems, methods and a iab-on-a-chip product are described for the detection of pathogens, infectious diseases and physiological conditions by quantifying change over time of one of capacitance or impedance when a bioiogical sample is loaded onto the chip. The lab-on-a-chip utilizes AC electrokinetic phenomena such that molecules move or are carried in an electric field generated by the application of a signal of predetermined voltage and frequency to an electrode array. In particular, an electrode array of a conductive material is constructed on a substrate that may comprise silicon or quartz/glass or other known substrate, in one embodiment, a molecular probe comprising a bacterial antigen, an antibody against pathogen an antibody against protein or other biomarker is dispersed on the electrode array and blocked. A test for detection of diseases or conditions in animal or human including but not limited to Johne's disease, mastitis, pregnancy, heart attack and diabetes comprises taking the biological sample, dropping the sample on the chip, applying the predetermined signal to the chip for a predetermined time and detecting the biomarker through measuring the change in one of capacitance and impedance over time.

Inventor: CUMMINGS W JASON
IPC: C12N15/70
Filed: 2013-03-13
Abstract: The disclosure relates generally to the targeting of genes to, and their integration into, an innnnunoglobulin (antibody) heavy chain locus. In particular, the methods described herein contemplate replacing the single rearranged heavy chain V, D, and J genes of a B cell lymphoma such as DT40 with independently rearranged VH-D-JH genes of chicken, in a system for generating immunoglobulin diversity. Also contemplated is replacement of the chicken VH-D-JH with rearranged VH-D-JH genes of other vertebrates including human in a system for generating immunoglobulin diversity, with the exception of any substitution disclosed and claimed in PCT application WO 2009/029315 A2. Regions upstream of the rearranged VH gene, and downstream of the rearranged JH genes, are identified and incorporated into the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene-targeting vectors for efficient gene replacement. Also described is construction of a diverse chicken immunoglobulin heavy chain VDJ library in DT40 by homologous gene replacement of the single endogenous rearranged VDJ gene with a chicken VDJ repertoire using the described targeting vectors. The methods are useful for generating a diverse library of immunoglobulins that can be screened for binding to desired target antigens. Compositions include the unique targeting vectors, the diverse chicken heavy chain VDJ library in the targeting vectors, and the diverse chicken VDJ DT40 library that is created by homologous gene replacement of the single endogenous rearranged VDJ gene with a chicken VDJ repertoire, using the targeting vectors.

Abstract: A tool for both perforating a well casing in a hydrocarbon formation and for subsequently fracturing the formation. The tool allows not only perforation and fracking, but in a preferred embodiment allows both perforation of the casing and fracking of the formation without having to further reposition the tool within the wellbore. The tool comprises a cylindrical member having thereon an upper and lower seal member and a longitudinal bore therein, and a cooperating piston which operates a punch to perforate the well casing. A  flushing port is provided immediately uphole of the upper seal member, which port when said tool is lowered downhole allows fluid flowing up a longitudinal channel to flush an annular region immediately uphole of said upper seal, thereby greatly reducing the incidence of sand impaction and thereby better allow the tool to be moved uphole for further perforation and fluid injection into the formation.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for sensing a leakage current along a primary conductor are provided. A first fault detection module is deployed at a first location along the primary conductor and a second driver module is deployed at a second location along the conductor, where the conductor passes through current sensors at each of the modules. The modules are further linked by a safety cable, which also passes through the current sensors. The driver module drives a compensation current in the safety cable to drive the net current passing through the driver current sensor to zero. The fault sensing module senses the net current passing through its current sensor. When the sensed current deviates significantly from zero, the fault sensing module generates a leakage current indication signifying a potential ground fault between the two modules.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for determining inheritance of maternal and paternal haplotypes in pregnancies with multiple fetuses. Maternal inheritance can be determined at loci where the mother is heterozygous and the paternally inherited alleles are known (e.g., the father is homozygous). Two types of loci may be used, where one type has the paternal allele appear on a first maternal halo type, and another type has the paternal allele appear on a second maternal haplotype. Paternal inheritance can be determined from loci where the father is heterozygous and the mother is homozygous. Amounts of different alleles at each locus can be measured. A comparison of the amounts (e.g., using a fractional concentration of each allele and cutoffs) can be used to determine the haplotype inheritance. A haplotype can be linked to a condition of interest.

Abstract: To prevent misdetection in a technique of detecting dryness of an electrolyte membrane on the basis of an impedance of a fuel cell. When a cooling medium temperature is below a predetermined temperature (step S310, NO) dryness detection (steps S320, S330, and S340) is not performed based on the real part of impedance. As a result, a misdetection that may occur when the cooling medium temperature is below a predetermined temperature is prevented.
