Abstract: A process for prodn. of plastic products with hollow chambers comprises: (a) injecting plastic melt into a mould cavity (2); (b) simultaneously and/or subsequently injecting a pressurised fluid, esp. a gas, into the melt with a nozzle (7) to create a hollow chamber; (c) cooling the moulding (6) to below the polymer m.pt.; (d) releasing fluid pressure from the cavity (2) and demoulding the prod. (6). During and/or after the injection of pressurised fluid the vol. of an overflow cavity (8) connected to the mould cavity (2) is increased, allowing some polymer to be forced into the overflow cavity (8) by fluid pressure. Process appts.. comprises an injection unit (4,5) with nozzle (7) for injecting pressurised fluid, a two or more part tool (1) with one or more overflow cavities (8) connected to the mould cavity (2) and a mechanism (9) for varying overflow cavity(8) volume. Pref. overflow cavity (8) vol. change is controlled according to the time from the start of cavity filling and/or to cavity pressure. The connecting channel between the mould (2) and overflow (8) cavities is heated to maintain constant melt fluidity between them. Prior to cooling the injected polymer the overflow channel (8) is reduced in size to force polymer back into the mould cavity (2) and close the opening between the cavities (2,8) to prevent polymer re-entering the overflow cavity (8). A piston and cylinder unit (9) forms the overflow cavity (8) and the mechanism (9) for varying the volume of this cavity (8). Heaters (10) are located between the mould (2) and overflow (8) cavities.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé d'amplification d'acides nucléiques cibles à l'aide de deux paires complémentaires de sondes oligonucléotidiques. Chaque élément de la paire contient un groupe de fonctionnalité chimique qui permet la liaison des sondes lorsque les groupes de fonctionnalité sont adjacents l'un par rapport à l'autre suite à l'hybridation des paires de sondes avec la matrice. Dans chaque paire, une sonde est composée de deux régions: une première région qui est hydridée avec la cible et qui contient le groupe de fonctionnalité chimique, et une seconde région de protection qui empêche les jonctions indépendantes de la cible, comme indiqué dans la figure. L'autre sonde de la paire contient le groupe de fonctionnalité chimique correspondant. Au moment de la jonction d'une première paire de sondes il peut y avoir une amplification au cours de laquelle la première paire de sondes de jonction récente tient lieu éventuellement de matrice pour la seconde paire de sondes complémentaires, qui peut à son tour faire effet de matrice pour les premières paires de sondes non jointes. Cette amplification cyclique est suffisamment sensible pour entraîner une amplification à discrimination des séquences qui se différencient simplement par une mutation ponctuelle: elle est donc appropriée à la détection des mutations ponctuelles et à la détermination des génotypes ainsi qu'à la détermination de la présence ou de l'absence d'un acide nucléique spécifique dans un échantillon.

Abstract: An improved assay system for homogeneous assay detection and/or measuring target nucleic acid sequence replicated in a PCR amplification procedure is provided by employing a nucleic acid polymerase having 5' to 3' exonuclease activity and devoid of 3' to 5' exonuclease activity, oligonucleotide analytical probe blocked against chain extension at its 3' terminus and labeled at its 5' terminus with an energy transfer donor fluorophore, and oligonucleotide detection probe labeled at its 3' terminus with an energy transfer acceptor fluorophore, said probes being complements of each other but differing in nucleotide length so that their Tm's are at least 10 DEG  C. apart, the Tm of the oligonucleotide analytical probe is equal to or greater than the Tm's of the oligonucleotide primers used in the PCR amplification procedure and the Tm of the oligonucleotide detection probe is lower than the temperature required to conduct the PCR thermal cycling steps of the PCR amplification procedure so that during the PCR thermal cyclic steps 5' fluorophore labeled nucleotide fragments are produced during the PCR extension phase by the 5' to 3' exonuclease activity of the nucleic acid polymerase on oligonucleotide analytical probe annealed to denatured strands of the target nucleic acid sequence. Detection or measurement of either (a) the 5' fluorophore labeled nucleotide fragments produced during the thermal cyclic steps and measured by fluorescence polarization or (b) oligonucleotide analytical probe hybridized to oligonucleotide detection probe measured spectrophotometrically by energy transfer measurement, provide a measure of the amount of oligonucleotide analytical probe used up in the amplification of the target nucleic acid sequence and thus provide a measure of amount of target nucleic acid sequence amplified in the PCR replication procedure.

Date Oct. 9, 1997The invention relates to a method and device for the electrochemical treatment of electrically mutually insulated, electrically conductive areas on an item to be treated by means of a treatment liquid. Insulated, for example etched structures on circuit boards cannot be treated electrochemically with known methods since there exists no electrical connection to the bath current source from individual areas. According to the invention, this connection is produced by brushes which touch the structured surfaces to be treated with their electrically conductive and thin fibres. A large number of brushes which are arranged transversely to the direction of transportation take care of the fact that all the electrically conductive areas on the item to be treated which are arranged in an insulated manner from one another are contacted electrically at least one after another and that the achieved contact time is sufficiently long. Counter-electrodes, which may be also designed as movable brushes, are situated preferably between the brush electrodes. In electrochemical processes, in which metal is deposited, the brushes are deplated cyclically. For this purpose, various possible solutions are proposed.

Abstract: A protocol interface gateway connects a telecommunication system emulator to a communications network. The gateway receives signals from the network and sends signals to the network that are formatted in a network protocol. The gateway converts signals received from the network into instructions in emulator code, and sends the instructions in emulator code to the emulator for processing. The emulator executes code in blocks of application software utilized in a target telecommunications node. The gateway then receives the processed instructions in emulator code from the emulator, converts the processed instructions into signals formatted in the network protocol, and sends the signals to the communications network. The protocol interface gateway utilizes a UNIX socket that replaces Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) layers 1 and 2 of the network protocol to send and receive the signals from the network.
