Inventor: JONES GREGORY K
IPC: B32B7/02
Filed: 2002-08-13
Abstract: Multilayer microporous films comprise first and second microporous film layers. The first film layer has a first maximum pore size and the second film layer has a second maximum pore size different from the first maximum pore size. In a more specific embodiment, the multilayer microporous films comprise coextruded first, second and third microporous film layers. One of the first, second and third film layers has a maximum pore size smaller than the respective maximum pore sizes of the remaining layers of the multilayer film or larger than the respective maximum pore sizes of theremaining layers of the multilayer film, and the one layer does not have an unconstrained surface in the multilayer film. Methods for producing multilayer microporous films provide a first film layer having a maximum pore size upon stretching which is different from that of a second film layer upon stretching.

Abstract: There is provided a method for judging whether or not a
sequence mismatch or mismatches occur between a sample
single-stranded nucleic acid molecule and a standard single-stranded
nucleic acid molecule, comprising: allowing a
double-stranded nucleic acid molecule consisting of the
standard single-stranded nucleic acid molecule and a
complementary strand thereof to co-exist with the sample
single-stranded nucleic acid molecule in the presence of a
cationic polymer; determining the ratio of the substation of
the complementary strand of the standard single-stranded
nucleic acid molecule:by the sample single-stranded nucleic
acid molecule; and judging whether or not a sequence
mismatch or mismatches occur between the two molecules based
on the value determined. The method makes it possible to
discriminate the occurrence of a sequence mismatch between
single-stranded nucleic acid molecules accurately even when
the mismatch occurs only in a single base.

Abstract: Provided is a plasma display apparatus capable of being
manufactured with higher light emission efficiency and higher yield.
A bus electrode (18) is formed astride a region where a sustain
electrode (37) is formed and a region on a front glass substrate (11)
except for the region where the sustain electrode (37) is formed with
an edge of the sustain electrode (37) on a side opposite to a side
where the sustain electrode (37) is paired with another sustain
electrode (37) in between. The bus electrode (18) has a shape
expanding the whole width without widely coating the sustain
electrode (37), so a cross-sectional area of the bus electrode (18) can
be larger more than previously possible. An end portion of the
sustain electrode (37) in a longitudinal direction has a forward
tapered shape in which a side surface of the sustain electrode (37)
forms an acute angle with the front glass substrate (11), so a step
can be eliminated.

Abstract: This invention provides an improved system for monitoring and recording cell
cultures. An improved lid (10) for the system includes pin sockets (28) interposed
between traces (24) on a printed circuit board (22) and elongated, electrically
conductive pins (38). A method for measuring a delay period for an alternating
current voltage applied across a pair of pins (38) improves the stability of
measurements made with the improved system. A method for applying a voltage
across a pair of pins (38) which avoids exceeding a pre-established voltage avoids
the possibility of damaging and/or destroying cells while monitoring their culture.
Subtracting electrical conductivity measured for a reference well (16) that holds only
cell growth media without cells from the electrical conductivity measured for other
wells (16) during analysis of recorded data improves the presentation of test results
obtained by monitoring and recording cell cultures.
