Abstract: A holder device for holding a head portion of a hand holdable elongate member comprises a mounting bracket (20) with a base (36) and two side walls (38) and a pair of side flaps (14,16) partially rotatable about a common axis. The flaps (14, 16) when in a closed position form an enclosed chamber with an aperture (32) at one end to accommodate the elongate member. The side flaps (14, 16) are pivotably mounted onto the mounting bracket (20). When force is applied onto bases (30) of the side flaps (14,16), the side flaps (14,16) will be triggered to close or open.

Abstract: The device of present invention is used for cutting and recovery of a selected gel piece from a larger gel mass. The gel piece suitably contains molecules that will be used in further work. The preferred device is made up of at least two parts: a hollow member with a distal end terminating in a cutting edge, a proximal end, and a lumen in between the proximal and distal ends; and a piston member. The lumen part of the hollow member close to the proximal end has a larger cross section than a lumen part close to the distal end. The piston body has at least a first body that fits snugly in the lumen part having the larger cross section and a second body is longer than length of the lumen part with a smaller cross section and fits within the smaller cross section portion of the hollow tube, creates reduced pressure when moved towards proximal end of the hollow tube is disposed within the lumen. After cutting a selected portion of the gel mass with the cutting end of the hollow member, and thereby forcing a cut portion of the gel mass into the smaller cross section portion of the lumen, movement of the piston away from the cutting edge reduces the pressure in the smaller cross section of the lumen and this serves to keep the cut gel piece in lumen of the hollow member. The cut gel can then be ejected by reversing the movement of the piston. In a preferred embodiment, the cut gel portion can be recovered.

Abstract: Improved dipstick assays for testing for the presence of a target nucleic acid in a sample solution are described. A dipstick is provided which comprises a contact end for contacting the sample solution and a capture zone remote from the contact end for capturing target nucleic acid. Sample solution is contacted with the contact end to cause sample solution to move by capillary action to the capture zone. Target nucleic acid in the sample solution is captured at the capture zone and is detected by a plurality of different labelled detection probes each capable of hybridizing to a different region of the target nucleic acid. The detection signal is thereby enhanced. In other methods a plurality of different capture probes are added to the sample solution which can then be bound by a capture moiety at the capture zone to indirectly capture target nucleic acid. Capture of target nucleic acid is thereby improved. Kits and dipsticks for carrying out such methods are also described.

Abstract: Low-density glass or ceramic micro-balloons are esp. mixed with a suitable solvent in a process to prepare paint or a coating system for application. The solvent, e.g. water, binds the micro-balloons by adhesive forces in a suitable charge which is admixed to the paint pigment or coating agent by a retailer or end-user.  The admixture of solvent forms a uniform suspension and minimises separation arising from density differences. In the process, only the micro-balloon outer surface is spray-wetted. The adhesive force is regulated by the degree of wetting. The spray application of solvent to micro-balloons minimises the escape of micro-balloons as dust to the atmosphere.

Abstract: In a color image forming apparatus, a looped belt member is stretched and circulated by at least a drive roller and a driven roller so as to have a tensed side and a slack side. Each of plural image supporting members supports a single color toner image thereon, and abuts onto the tensed side of the belt member to define a transferring position at which the toner image is transferred onto either the belt member or a recording medium held by the belt member, while being rotated. A circumferential velocity of each image supporting member is determined so as to be lower than a circulation velocity of the belt member. Further, a circumferential velocity of an image supporting member which is further from the driving roller may be lower than a circumferential velocity of an image supporting member which is closer to the driving roller. <IMAGE>
