Title: Homogeneous biospecific assay method using lanthanide chelates as labels
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1988-09-20
Granted: 1992-12-30
Abstract: Method for a homogeneous biospecific affinity assay for determining the content of a substance (analyte) in a biological sample. The assay is carried out in an aqueous reaction medium by means of time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and with a biospecific affinity reactant labeled with a lanthanide chelate in which a lanthanide ion exhibiting ionic fluorescence is chelated by a ligand bound covalently to the reactant. The characteristic feature is   (i) that the lanthanide chelate formed by the lanthanide ion together with the covalently bound ligand forms a fluorescent chelate, and (ii) that a modulator is added which stabilizes the lanthanide chelate so that the lanthanide fluorescence as measured from the medium becomes a practically pure function of the analyte concentration therein. o

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for amplifying and detecting any desired specific nucleic acid sequence that exists in a nucleic acid or mixture thereof. The process comprises treating single strand RNA or separated complementary strands of DNA target with a molar excess of oligonucleotide complement pairs in which these oligonucleotide complement pairs have sequences complementary to the target, under hybridizing conditions. In one embodiment, the oligonucleotide complement pairs may have a gap of one or more bases which may be repaired (filled) by enzymes. The oligonucleotide complement pairs are joined together, forming joined, oligonucleotide product. The target/joint product hybrid nucleic acids are then denatured to single strands again, at which point both the target and the joined products can form hybrids with new oligonucleotide complement pairs. The steps of the reaction may be carried out stepwise or simultaneously and can be repeated as often as desired.

Abstract: In a soldering device with at least one bow-shaped electrode (B1), which can be heated by means of electrical resistance heating, its rectangular working surface (A1) is intended to be capable of being positioned exactly parallel on the solder point which is located, for example, on a printed-circuit board. This is made possible by means of a pivotable suspension of the bow-shaped electrode (B1), the dislocated rotation axis (Da1) of this pivotable suspension having to run in the plane of the working surface (A1), centrally and at right angles to the longer side of the working surface (A1). In consequence, a more secure contact of the parts to be soldered to one another and to the working surface of the soldering bracket (B1) is ensured. In the case of soldering devices having two or four soldering brackets, each individual one of these soldering brackets is pivotably suspended individually.

Abstract: In the digital communication system (VA) which exhibits a relatively small number of access possibilities, there are, in addition to the central control unit, several peripheral control units (PCU1...PCU6) which are in each case allocated to a certain number of subscriber (TE) or line access modules (AE). The useful PCM data obtained via these modules are output to at least two PCM-structured line accesses for each control unit (PCU). First line accesses (HW0) of all control units (PCU1...PCU6) are connected directly to one another and to the corresponding access of the central processor. These accesses are connected to a conference chip so that conference connections can be established without inserting a switching matrix chip. The control units (PCU1...PCU6) are combined group by group and for each group, the second line accesses (HW1) are in each case connected to one another at the transmitting and receiving end and conducted to the central processor via a group-specific line feed (RHW10...RHW12; THW10...THW12). They can be connected to their second useful-data PCM accesses. The connecting or the switching, respectively, of the PCM line runs (HW10...HW12) formed in the structure described can be effected with the highway connections, corresponding to them, of the central control unit (CCU) via a plugging-in-type connecting unit (V1...V11) or after removal of this connecting unit via a digital switching matrix chip (MTS) then inserted. Combining the highways results in a reduction in the high-frequency PCM lines on the backplane. In small systems, conference connections are possible in spite of the saving of a switching matrix chip. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A measuring arrangement for measuring the variation of a fluid quantity in a storage space (2) which receives the liquid has a measuring chamber (8) and a reference measuring chamber (10) of identical construction. Both chambers (8, 10) are connected to the storage space (2) so as to communicate before the measurement so that identical liquid levels (14, 15, 16) are established. For the measurement, the connection between the reference measuring chamber (10) and the storage space (2) is interrupted. Therefore, when liquid is consumed, the liquid level (14) in the measuring chamber declines in the same manner as the liquid level (16) in the storage space (2) while the liquid level (15) in the reference measuring chamber essentially remains the same. The levels (14, 15) are measured by means of interval measuring devices (24, 25) and subtracted from one another in an evaluation device (36) and processed, if appropriate, to form a liquid consumption value after correction due to temperature-related changes in the liquid levels (14, 15). <IMAGE>
