Title: Methods and compositions for imaging and cleaning lithographic printing plates
Inventor: LEWIS THOMAS E
IPC: B41C1/10
Filed: 1997-09-12
Granted: 2000-07-13
Abstract: Cleaning compositions for ablation-type lithographic printing plates include solvent, non-solvent and lubricating components, the vapor pressures and concentrations of the various components being chosen such that the mixture never becomes too rich in solvent. In this way, the solvent's effect is directed primarily at thermal byproducts, which, because they are exposed and already partly decomposed, are more vulnerable to solvent action than the intact, anchored plate constituents in unimaged regions. The compositions are used in conjunction with mechanical rubbing of the plate surface following imaging.

Title: Method and reagent combination for determining nucleotide sequences
Inventor: SODERLUND HANS ERIK
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1989-11-29
Granted: 1992-05-07
Abstract: The invention provides for detection of changes in a nucleotide sequence based on the determination of the nucleotide sequence over the region of interest. The first step of the process involves obtaining an amplified DNA sample in which at least one attachment moiety has been introduced into at least one strand of a target polynucleotide by a modified polymerase chain reaction. This can be accomplished by synthesizing DNA using the target nucleic acid polymer as a template and using at least one amplification primer, which includes an attachment moiety bonded to the oligonucleotide. The resulting amplification mixture is repeatedly cycled between a polymerization condition and a denaturation condition occurs for a number of cycles sufficient to produce copies of the target nucleic acid polymer in a quantity suitable for use in a DNA sequencing procedure to form an amplified sample comprising copies of the target nucleic acid sequence bonded to the attachment moiety. After amplification, the strands of target nucleic acid polymer carrying an attachment moiety are captured using a solid matrix coated with an attachment site to which the attachment moiety or a modification thereof can bind. In this way, the strands of target nucleic acid become bound to the solid matrix and can be readily separated with the solid matrix from unbound reactants for sequencing.
