Title: A method for genomic substractive hybridization
Inventor: XIAO SHENG
IPC: C12Q1/6809
Filed: 1999-11-02
Abstract: The invention is a method for genomic subtractive hybridization. Specific nucleic acid sequences are removed from a sample of nucleic acid sequences b y specifically hybridizing the sequences to a complementary nucleic acid sequence bound to a target molecule such as biotin. The target molecule is then contacted with a binding partner such as avidin and separated from the sample of nucleic acid sequences. As the target is separated from the sample  the hybridized nucleic acid sequences are also removed from the sample. The method preferably involves the removal of repetitive nucleic acid sequences from a nucleic acid sample to generate a library of probes that are substantially free of repetitive nucleic acid sequences.

Title: Regenerative type carbon dioxide separator and carbon dioxide separating system
Inventor: GOTO KAZUSHIGE
IPC: C01B32/50
Filed: 2000-10-20
Abstract: A regenerative type carbon dioxide separator and a carbon dioxide separating  system, capable of reliably effecting carbon dioxide separation with extreme ly high efficiency by a much simpler arrangement than in the prior art. Carbon dioxide in exhaust gases can be absorbed and separated by defining a high temperature region and a low temperature region around a rotor and simply rotating the rotor. Therefore, it is possible to realize a maintenance-easy,  highly reliable absorption separation system which can be extremely simplified, greatly reducing regeneration costs. The same effect can also be  attained by a stationary arrangement. Further, the use of lithium zirconate,  alkali metal oxides and/or oxides of alkaline earth metals as an absorption- separation agent provides chemical and mechanical stability and enables reversible stabilized absorption and release of carbon dioxide.

Title: Inorganic shaped bodies and methods for their production and use
Inventor: ERBE ERIK M
IPC: A61F2/00
Filed: 2000-01-26
Abstract: Shaped, preferably porous, inorganic bodies are provided which are prepared from a reactive blend. In accordance with one preferred embodiment, the solution is absorbed into a porous sacrificial substrate such as a cellulose sponge. The solution-saturated substrate is heated and an oxidation-reduction reaction occurs thereby forming an inorganic solid.  A shaped, inorganic body is formed in situ. Optional, but preferred additional thermal treatment of the shaped, inorganic body removes the organic substrate, leaving an inorganic body that faithfully mimics the porosity, shape, and other physical characteristics of the organic substrate. Inorganic substrates may also be used to good effect.  Large varieties of shaped bodies can be prepared in accordance with other embodiments of the invention and such shapes find wide use in surgery, laboratory and industrial processes and otherwise. The invention also provides chemically and morphologically uniform powders, including those having iniformly small sizes.

Inventor: KING RICHARD A
IPC: G01N21/35
Filed: 2000-03-10
Abstract: A method of determining the analyte concentration of a test sample is described. A temperature gradient is introduced in the test sample (102).  Infrared radiation detectors measure radiation at selected analyte absorption peak, and reference wavelengths (104). Reference, and analyte signals are detected. In the presence of the selected analyte, parameter differences between reference, and analytical signals are detectable. These parameter differences, having a relationship to analyte concentration, are measured, correlated, and processed to determine analyte concentration in the test sample (106). Accuracy is enhanced by inducing a periodically modulated temperature gradient in the test sample. The analytical, the reference signals may be measured continuously, and the parameter difference integrated over the measurement period to determine analyte concentration.
