Filed: 2010-09-30
Abstract: The arrangement has a detection-and evaluation device (11) detecting and evaluating signals that are detected by sensors (7, 8) e.g. Hall-sensors. A deformable element (1) produces a magnetic field (9), and the sensors detect changes of the magnetic field, where strength of the magnetic field depends upon a distance of a surface (10) of a membrane to the sensors. The deformable element has magnetic field producing layers (2) that are made of elastomer and fleece, where magnetized particles are embedded in the layers. The deformable element comprises a coating layer (1a), which is made of PTFE. An independent claim is also included for a method for detecting cracks in a surface of a deformable element.

IPC: C12Q1/689
Filed: 1997-02-05
Abstract: The present invention describes a method for identifying one or more of a plurality of sequences differing by one or more single base changes, insertions, deletions, or translocations in a plurality of target nucleotide sequences. The method includes a ligation phase, a capture phase, and a detection phase. The ligation phase utilizes a ligation detection reaction between one oligonucleotide probe, which has a target sequence-specifc portion and an addressable array-specific portion, and a second oligonucleotide probe, having a target sequence-specific portion and a detectable label. After the ligation phase, the capture phase is carried out by hybridizing the ligated oligonucleotide probes to a solid support with an array of immobilized capture oligonucleotide at least some of which are complementary to the addressable array-specific portion. Following completion of the capture phase, a detection phase is carried out to detect the labels of ligated oligonucleotide probes hybridized to the solid support. The ligation phase can be preceded by an amplification process. The present invention also relates to a kit for practicing this method, a method of forming arrays on solid supports, and the supports themselves.

Abstract: Provided is a method and apparatus for sharing information from a communication device. The communication device is to send first information to a first apparatus and second information to a second apparatus. In accordance with an embodiment of the application, the communication device combines the first information and the second information in a single message and then sends the message to a network node. In accordance with another embodiment of the application, the network node separates the first information from the second information and sends the first information and the second information to the first apparatus and the second apparatus, respectively. Note that the communication device did not have to send separate messages to the apparatuses and therefore there is a reduction in number of messages sent by the communication device. This reduction has an effect of reducing network utilization by the communication device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a micro-reactor (100) for observing small particles, cells, bacteria, viruses or protein molecules in a fluid. The micro-reactor shows a first channel (106) formed between two layers (102, 104) for containing the fluid, with an inlet (112) and an outlet (114), the two layers separated by a first distance. A likewise second channel (108) with an inlet (118) and an outlet (116) is placed adjacent to the first channel. A gap connects the first channel and the second channel, at the gap at least one layer showing a window (120) transparent to the method of inspection and at the window the two layers being separated by a very small distance of, for example, 1 µm or less. 
     The micro-reactor may be used with an optical microscope (in which all particles are in focus), inspection with a Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope (in which the range of the electrons is limited), inspection with soft X-rays in the 250-500 eV range (also showing a limited range), etc. 
     A method of using the micro-reactor includes applying a gradient over the gap, thereby causing the particles to cross the gap. The gradient may be static or dynamic, and may be a gradient in concentration, of a chemical or biological material, in pressure, in temperature, in electric potential, or in magnetic field. By detecting a property of the particles upstream in the first channel, e.g. using fluorescent labels on the particles, and then applying a pressure burst over the channels when the property meets certain preset criteria, only selected particles can be placed in the gap.
