Patent CA-2366509-A1 (CA)
Title: Automated 2-dimensional analysis of biological and other samples
Inventor: DOVICHI NORMAN J
IPC: G01N21/05
Filed: 2000-03-10
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for separation and detection of components within a sample, particularly biological samples. The sample is subject to a first separation technique, for example isoelectric focusing, electrophoresis or the like. After this first separation step, the sample is separated into fractions, and each fraction is then subject to a second separation technique, which for example can be some form of chromatography, the components leaving the second separation step and then detected. This enables a two-dimensional separation technique to be applied, wherein the two separation techniques are different, for example isoelectric focusing and an SDS/gel capillary technique. The first and second separation techniques are conveniently carried out in first and second capillaries. A further aspect of the invention provides a manifold connecting together pairs of capillaries, so as to provide multiple dual separation systems operated in parallel, for example 96 pairs of capillaries. The invention is particularly intended to provide high solution separation and high sensitivity of detection for components in biological samples.

Title: Method of manufacturing a wall thickness program into an elastomeric tubular component for incorporation into a packing device for use in a subterranean well
Inventor: CARISELLA JAMES V
IPC: B29C53/58
Filed: 2000-04-05
Abstract: A method of manufacturing a wall thickness program onto an elastomeric tubular component, such as an expandable bladder and/or cover element, for incorporation into a packing device for use in a subterranean well includes steps of contouring upon a surface a diametrical configuration defining a wall thickness program for the tubular component. The diametrical configuration is transferred from the surface onto at least one of the walls of the tubular component as a wall thickness program whereby the transfer diametrical configuration conforms substantially as a mirror image of the program on the contoured surface. An elongated mandrel may be provided as the surface onto which the diametrical configuration of the wall thickness program is contoured, such as by machining. Thereafter, the elastomeric tubular component may be prepared on the mandrel, such as by wrapping elastomeric ribbon in layers therearound as the mandrel is manipulated. Extrusion abating heat shrinkable tape may be applied around the uncured elastomer and the elastomer on the mandrel cured under heat to transfer the diametrical configuration from the mandrel onto the tubular component. Alternatively, the diametrical configuration of the elastomeric tubular component may be machined along a constant outer diameter of a blank elastomeric tubular component.
