Title: Producing copies of nucleic acids
Inventor: MINTER STEPHEN JOHN
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1995-05-30
Granted: 1999-07-08
Abstract: Amplification of nucleic acids using oligonucleotides immobilized on solid phase supports is disclosed. Target nucleic acid strands (in a sample to be analyzed) are hybridized to the oligonucleotides and copy target strands (incorporating immobilized oligonucleotide) are produced using the target strands as templates. The target strands are denatured from the copy target strands and rehybridized to non-extended oligonucleotides. In the next step, new copy target 1 strands are synthesized from the oligonucleotides hybridized to the target strands, and simultaneously copy target 2 strands are synthesized using previously generated copy target 1 strands. Sequence of denaturing, rehybridizing, and producing copy target 1 and copy target 2 strands is repeated as often as necessary to give the desired degree of amplification.

Title: Method of obtaining acceptable configuration of a plastic container after thermal food sterilization process
Inventor: MCHENRY ROBERT J
IPC: B65D81/18
Filed: 1984-04-26
Granted: 1988-12-22
Abstract: Methods are provided for obtaining an acceptable configuration of a thermally processed plastics container packed with food; improvements in container configuration are attained by proper container design, by maintaining a proper headspace of gases in the container during thermal processing by establishing a vacuum in the container as it is sealed and/or by controlled reforming of the bottom wall of the container. Reforming is achieved by creating an excess external pressure on the container which is sufficient to cause the bottom wall but not any portion of the sidewall to move inwardly. Further improvements are attained by controlling the thermal history of the empty container, such as by pre-shrinking the container before it is filled with food and sealed.

Title: Event location using a locating member containing discrete impedances
Inventor: HAUPTLY PAUL D
IPC: G01R31/08
Filed: 1985-04-11
Granted: 1990-02-15
Abstract: Method and apparatus for detecting and obtaining information about (particularly locating) an event. i.e. a change in a variable, for example an increase in the concentration of a fluid as a result of a leak, a change in the physical position of a movable member such as a valve, a change in temperature, or a change in pressure. In a preferred embodiment, three conductors follow an elongate path. One of them (called the locating member (11)) comprises a plurality of spaced-apart resistors (111) separated by low resistance intermediate components (112), so that the locating member has known impedance characteristics along its length. The second conductor (12) is connected to one end of the locating member, but is otherwise insulated from the locating member. When the event occurs, connection is made between the locating member (11) and the second conductor (12) at one or more of a plurality of available connection points, each of which lies between a pair of resistors. With the aid of the third conductor (16), a current of known size is passed through, and the voltage drop is measured between, the connection point and one end of the locating member. The location of the event can then be calculated.

Title: Chew toys for domestic carnivorous animals and method for making same
Inventor: SHERRILL LES R
IPC: A01K29/00
Filed: 1997-09-25
Granted: 2000-07-27
Abstract: Chew toys (10) for domestic carnivorous animals having rawhide (11) and jerky sheets or members (12). The jerky sheets (12) are wrapped in a rawhide sheet (11) by either rolling or folding. This provides an outer layer (18) of rawhide containing jerky therein. A seam (19) is created in rawhide outer layer (18) by the rolling or folding of the rawhide sheet (11). The jerky (12) preferably extends through this seam (19) to provide an initial attractive odor and taste for the dog and provide an immediate starting point for chewing. The benefits of the jerky (12) and the rawhide are maximised throughout the entire chewing process of the chew toy (10). Dogs are highly attracted to the scent and taste of jerky (12), which causes the dog to chew on the rawhide (11) for extended periods of time. This better satisfies the dog's instinctive urge to chew, channeling it in a healthy direction, while simultaneously reducing the tartar on their teeth. The jerky (12) is positioned with respect to the rawhide (11) to enable the odor and taste sensations of the jerky (12) to always be present and fresh to the dog.
