Abstract: The process uses a perforated sheet (3) of a hard metal (4). Each hole (6) in this is made with a lip (5) whose end (7) projects towards the surface of the metal (1) to which it is to be added. The lips form an angle (A) with the surface of the sheet and their ends are perpendicular to the plane of the sheet (D). The sheet is pressed on to the surface of the softer metal so that the lips straighten and the metal creeps into the holes to anchor the sheet. <IMAGE>

IPC: C12Q1/6816
Filed: 1994-06-15
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of amplifying and detecting single or double stranded target nucleic acid molecules. Amplification of the target nucleic acid molecule is accomplished by using at least two chemically modified oligonucleotide probes per target nucleic acid molecule to form a joined oligonucleotide product. Each oligonucleotide probe is comprised of a long and short sequence. The long sequence of each probe hybridizes to adjacent regions of the target nucleic acid molecule. The short sequences of each probe hybridize to each other. Chemical functionality groups attached to the short sequences of each oligonucleotide probe covalently combine linking the probes to form a joined oligonucleotide product. The joined oligonucleotide product is formed without the use of enzymes. The reactivity of the chemical functionality groups on each probe is target dependent. The chemical functionality group on each probe is prevented from reacting with other chemical functionality groups on other probes unless the probes are properly hybridized to the target molecule and to each other, as described above. The chemical functionality groups are covalently attached to the short sequence of each probe in such a way that they are sheltered or protected from the chemical functionality groups of other probes while the probes are in solution. Only when the short sequences of adjacent probes are hybridized to each other are the chemical functionality groups on the probes brought into close enough proximity to form a covalent bond and join the probes to form a joined oligonucleotide product.

Abstract: A disk pack (3) is clamped between an external flange (17) adjacent one end of a hub (13) and a ring clamp (19) adjacent the other end of the hub (13). The hub (13) terminates in a tubular section (13b) at the location of the ring clamp (19). The tubular section (13b) has substantially cylindrical internal and external (13b1, 13b2) surfaces. The ring clamp (19) has a central opening (19b) defined by a wall in the ring clamp (19). The wall of the central opening (19b) of the ring clamp (19) is a sliding fit over the substantially cylindrical external surface (13b2) of the tubular section (13b) of the hub (13). The periphery of a circular expander wedge (25) has an interference fit engagement within the substantially cylindrical internal surface (13b1) of the tubular hub section (13b). When the circular expander wedge (25) is in place in the tubular section (13b1) of the hub (13) the tubular section (13b) is expanded. The substantially cylindrical external surface (13b2) of the tubular section (13b) is compressed against the wall of the central opening (19b) of the ring clamp (19). The radial pressure or force is maintained by the presence of the circular expander wedge (25) which, in the best mode for practicing the invention, remains in place. The radial pressure is uniformly circumferentially distributed around the circular wedge (25) and is correspondingly uniformly applied to the ring clamp (19) to frictionally secure the ring clamp (19) to the hub (13).

Abstract: An optical fiber system and method is disclosed that overcomes the effects of polarization gain anisotropy in rare-earth doped optical fiber amplifiers. An optical fiber has at least one rare-earth doped fiber portion for amplifying a light signal. Light signals are passed through the doped fiber portion in a first incident polarized state. This light signal is reflected back from a Faraday effect mirror and through the doped fiber portion in its orthogonal polarized state so as to overcome the effects of polarization gain anisotropy. The rare-earth doped amplifier is preferably an erbium-doped fiber amplifier. A signal is initially passed through one part of a Faraday optical circulator and out a second port into the doped amplifier. On its return pass, the light signal enters the second port and then exits a third port. The optical amplifier can include a wavelength division multiplexor coupler for merging the pump signal with the original light signal. Various amplifier configurations are also disclosed which are either co-propagating or counter-propagating and reflect only the signal, reflect only the pump signal, or reflect both the pump signal and original light signal.
