Title: Shaft clutch mechanism and its production
Inventor: MILLER JAMES R
IPC: B21D35/00
Filed: 1993-03-12
Granted: 1997-07-31
Abstract: A shaft clutch mechanism, and method and apparatus for its production are disclosed. The shaft clutch mechanism has an upper body folded into a polygonal cross section with a plurality of fingers, each finger attached to and extending from a flat section of the upper body. The shaft clutch mechanism is pressed on to one end of an inner nested element of a telescoping body and is placed inside an outer element where the fingers are slightly deformed, providing slight friction sufficient to hold the inner element in place, but still allowing it to slide relative to the outer element. The method and apparatus for producing the shaft clutch mechanism use a two stage press and a bending device to take a continuous strip of material to form blanks which then are bent to form the shaft clutch mechanism that is pressed on to the inner element of the telescoping body.

Title: Virucidal low toxicity compositions
IPC: A01N35/02
Filed: 1989-11-14
Granted: 1993-02-18
Abstract: Very potent, stable, odorless, and phenol-free virucidal solutions are active at high dilution when used for surface decontamination of animate and inanimate objects. The virucidal compositions described are efficacious in a matter of minutes against both the lipophilic and the more resistant hydrophilic viruses. The three active ingredients in these virucidal compositions are the glutaraldehyde monomer in equilibrium with its hydrates and polymers, hydrogen-bonded glycol molecules to eliminate aldehydes odor, and an anionic surfactant of the alkyl sulfate, alkyl sulfonate, alcohol sulfate or alkyl aryl sulfonate type. A preferred anionic surfactant would be the Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS), which exhibits strong cidal synergism against the Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 when mixed at a concentration as low as 0.0005% in diluted glutaraldehyde aqueous solutions (0.0025%). Improved virucidal killing at higher dilutions of the same formula were observed with the more resistant Coxsackie B viruses. Because of the low concentration of active ingredients, these solutions exhibit a very low toxicity, making them suitable for topical applications as antiseptics.

Title: Covalently linked oligonucleotide minor groove binder conjugates
Inventor: KUTYAVIN IGOR V
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1996-04-03
Granted: 2000-02-17
Abstract: Conjugates between a minor groove binding molecule, such as the trimer of 1,2-dihydro-(3H)-pyrrolo[3,2-e]indole-7-carboxylate (CDPI3), and an oligonucleotide form unusually stable hybrids with complementary target sequences, in which the tethered CDPI3 group resides in the minor groove of the duplex. These conjugates can be used as probes and primers. Due to their unusually high binding affinity, conjugates as short as 8-mers can be used as amplification primers with high specificity and efficiency. MGB conjugation also increases the discriminatory power of short oligonucleotides, providing enhanced detection of nucleotide sequence mismatches by short oligonucleotides. The MGB-conjugated probes and primers described herein facilitate various analytic and diagnostic procedures, such as amplification reactions, PCR, detection of single-nucleotide polymorphisms, gene hunting, differential display, fluorescence energy transfer, hydrolyzable probe assays and others; by allowing the use of shorter oligonucleotides, which have higher specificity and better discriminatory power.
