Abstract: Biomolecules are provided having multiple binding sites for attachment to a substrate surface. The multiple attachment sites may be produced directly on the biomolecule or through use of branched phosphoramidite moieties that can be added in multiple to form dendritic structures which can in turn provide attachment sites for substrate binding moieties. Substrate binding moieties may include noncovalent binding moieties. For covalent binding moieties oligonucleotides containing hydrazides are provided. These hydrazides can be introduced via protected building blocks such as phosphoramidites or via building blocks containing precursor forms of such hydrazides.

Abstract: The invention is an apparatus and method for obtaining accurate sample weight measurements during sample heating within a heating cavity by substantially reducing the convection currents that disrupt accurate sample weight measurement. The apparatus includes a heating cavity in which a sample can be placed, a source for introducing microwaves into the heating cavity, and an analytical balance for measuring the weight of the sample while the sample is in the cavity, and an air shield that is secured to the inside of the heating cavity so that the air shield will not contact the analytical balance. The air shield, which is made of material that is permeable to microwave radiation and yet absorbent of volatiles, is positioned in the heating cavity to reduce the convection current rising from the sample as the sample is heated.

Abstract: An electrostatic fluid accelerator having a multiplicity of closely spaced corona electrodes. The close spacing of such corona electrodes is obtainable because such corona electrodes are isolated from one another with exciting electrodes. Either the exciting electrode must be placed asymmetrically between adjacent corona electrodes or an accelerating electrode must be employed. The accelerating electrode can be either an attracting or a repelling electrode. Preferably, the voltage between the corona electrodes and the exciting electrodes is maintained between the corona onset voltage and the breakdown voltage with a flexible top high-voltage power supply. Optionally, however, the voltage between the corona electrodes and the exciting electrodes can be varied, even outside the range between the corona onset voltage and the breakdown voltage, in to vary the flow of fluid. And, to achieve the greatest flow of fluid, multiple stages of the individual Electrostatic Fluid Accelerator are utilized with a collecting electrode between successive stages in order to preclude substantially all ions and other electrically charged particles from passing to the next stage, where they would tend to be repelled and thereby impair the movement of the fluid. Finally, constructing the exciting electrode in the form of a plate that extends downstream with respect to the desired direction of fluid flow also assures that more ions and, consequently, more fluid particles flow downstream.

Abstract: A method and system for the insertion of local signals (165), including digital media advertisements, into statistically multiplexed streams (135) is presented. The rate control (120) and timing information is computed and is used to specify the insertion time and rate parameters for digital advertisements. In one embodiment, a maximum bit rate over the advertisement duration is specified. The maximum bit rate may be constant or may vary in time, such that high bit rate portions of the advertisement are supported. High bit rate portions of the advertisements in different program streams may be staggered, such that the total bandwidth required does not exceed a maximum, but allowing for high bit rate portions of advertisements. Custom bit rate profiles for advertisements may also be defined, with the profiles being defined at a high granularity or a low granularity.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (40) produced using microstructure technology, for passing media. The device (40) is particularly suitable for evaporating liquid media and has a layered structure comprising at least one first layer (41), which has a number of microchannels (42) through which the medium to be evaporated flows, and at least one second layer (50), which has a number of microchannels (51) and through which a heat carrier medium flows. Said microchannels (42; 51) each have an inlet opening (43; 52) and an outlet opening (44; 53). The invention provides that the outlet openings (44) of the microchannels (42) for the medium to be evaporated are smaller in surface terms and/or have a diametrically different shape to their inlet openings, in order to achieve satisfactory evaporation of the liquid medium. This causes the pressure of the liquid medium in the microchannels (42) to increase so that overheated, still liquid medium is abruptly transformed from its liquid state to a vaporous state after leaving the outlet openings (44) with the smaller surface area. The microchannels may advantageously have a surface structure that promotes turbulence, tuning the laminar flows into turbulent flows. The inventive device can be advantageously used in a device for producing/processing a fuel for a fuel cell system.

Abstract: Methods of extracting and removing hyperpolarized gas from a container include introducing an extraction fluid into the container to force the hyperpolarized gas out of an exit port. The hyperpolarized gas is forced out of the container separate and apart from the extraction fluid. Alternatively, if the fluid is a gas, a portion of the gas is mixed with the hyperpolarized gas to form a sterile mixed fluid product suitable for introduction to a patient. An additional method includes engaging a gas transfer source such as a syringe to a transport container and pulling a quantity of the hyperpolarized gas out of the container in a controlled manner. Alternatively, one or more gas syringes can be employed to mete out predictable quantities of hyperpolarized gas or gas mixtures including quantities of buffer gases. Another method includes introducing a quantity of liquid into a container and covering at least one predetermined internal surface or component with the liquid to mask the surfaces and keep the hyperpolarized gas away from the predetermined internal surface, thereby inhibiting any depolarizing affect from same. Examples of surfaces or components suitable for masking include valves, seals, and the like. Yet another extraction method includes expanding a resilient member inside the container to force the hyperpolarized gas to exit therefrom. Containers include a resilient member positioned in fluid communication with the hyperpolarized gas in the container. An additional container includes inlet and outlet ports in fluid communication with the chamber and positioned on opposing sides or end portions of the container. Another container includes a port configured to receive a portion of a syringe therein. An additional aspect of the disclosure relates to calibration methods and apparatus for identifying the hyperpolarization status of the gas.

Abstract: A cleaning method and a corresponding cleaning device offer adequate protection to individuals, devices and installations, for cleaning component parts of installations that carry an electrical high-voltage and which are not disconnected during cleaning. Towards this end, the component parts to be cleaned are subjected to the action of a two-phase particle stream (PS) consisting of a compressed gas (DGA) serving as a carrier medium and of carbon dioxide ice particles (TP) carried therein. Possible superficial accumulations of dirt are removed from the component parts by way of low-temperature embrittlement and by the kinetic energy of the impacting carbon dioxide particles. The carbon dioxide ice particles themselves sublimate without leaving residues. A sufficiently safe distance of cleaning personnel from the high-voltage carrying insulation component parts is ensured by the provision of an electrically insulating distance mechanism (L, SFR) that is provided approximately in the form of a lance (L) or of a stream guided tube (SFR). A further increase in protection is offered by monitoring the quantity of moisture of compressed gas and/or ambient air, whereby the cleaning device is immediately shut off when predetermined limiting values are exceeded.
