Abstract: A method for identifying non-sex specific and sex specific molecules associated with animal cell membranes is described. The method involves preparing a cell membrane fraction from adult, fetal, or embryonic animal cells; treating the cell membrane fraction with one or more substances which bind to non-sex specific molecules in the cell membrane fraction to form conjugates between the non-sex specific molecules and the substances; separating the material in the cell membrane fraction which does not bind to the substances to obtain a subfraction containing sex specific molecules; optionally, removing the substances in the conjugates to obtain a subfraction containing non-sex specific molecules; and, isolating the sex specific molecules and optionally non-sex specific molecules in the subfractions. Sex specific and non-sex specific molecules and methods of using the sex specific and non-sex specific molecules for sexing are also described.

In another embodiment, Fig. 4, a quartz crystal oscillator circuit 1 for a watch, comprises an amplifier as above having a positive feedback path which includes capacitors C D , C G <SP>1</SP>. The value of a capacitor C G <SP>11</SP> is selected such that the biasing of the gates of Q N1 , Q P1  is proportional to the supply voltage V DD  even under transient conditions. A transient drop in supply voltage may occur when the motor winding M of the watch is pulsed.
