Title: Assay for polynucleotides employing oligonucleotides to eliminate undesirable cross reactions
Inventor: ARNOLD LYLE JOHN
IPC: C12Q1/6876
Filed: 1988-07-29
Granted: 1992-05-07
Abstract: In an assay for a target nucleotide sequence employing hybridization with a target probe nucleotide sequence, cross reaction between the target probe and a non-target nucleotide sequence, capable of hybridizing with the target probe, is prevented or diminished by introducing, at some point during the hybridization, a non-target probe which hybridizes preferentially with the non-target nucleotide sequence. The melting temperature for the non-target probe/non-target nucleotide sequence hybrid is preferably greater than that of the target probe/non-target sequence hybrid. The hybridization can be carried out under isothermal conditions or preferentially with gradual cooling.

Title: Valve gating apparatus and method for injection molding
Inventor: SCHAD ROBERT D
IPC: B29C45/28
Filed: 1999-02-15
Granted: 2001-09-20
Abstract: A valve gating apparatus and method for injection molding includes at least one shutter disposed between the gate and the cavity melt channel into a mold cavity. The shutter is moved laterally, between a closed position wherein flow of melt from the nozzle into the cavity is inhibited, and an open position wherein flow of melt into the cavity is unimpeded by the shutter. Intermediate these two positions, the shutter can be employed to reduce the cross-sectional area of the gate to throttle the gate. Embodiments are disclosed wherein one shutter or pairs of shutters are employed to gate the gate. Further, when pairs of shutters are employed, the shutters can abut each other in the close position or can overlie each other. This novel design prevents generation of waste material and eliminates the need to have means for removing cold plugs.

Title: Method of processing data
Inventor: NAKAGAWA YOSHIHIRO
IPC: G06T9/00
Filed: 1992-12-24
Granted: 1996-01-04
Abstract: At a data output apparatus side (100), raster image information, which is obtained by means of performing an exclusive OR operation between raster image information on the preceding line and raster image information on the current line, is compression-processed in a raster direction and then transmitted to a data processing apparatus (200). In the data processing apparatus (200), the received image information is expansion-processed, an exclusive OR operation between image information after the expansion and image information on the preceding line is carried out, and a processing for recording and the like is performed taking the thus obtained information as the raster image information on the current line. Thus it is possible to provide a higher compression rate of the image information with a simple processing and to improve a processing speed. <IMAGE>

Title: Low-carbon steels of superior mechanical and corrosion properties and process of making thereof
Inventor: THOMAS GARETH
IPC: C21D1/22
Filed: 2000-03-28
Granted: 2003-12-11
Abstract: Alloy steels that combine high strength and toughness with high corrosion resistance are achieved by a dislocated lath microstructure, in which dislocated martensite laths that are substantially free of twinning alternate with thin films of retained austenite, with an absence of autotempered carbides, nitrides and carbonitrides in both the dislocated martensite laths and the retained austenite films. This microstructure is achieved by selecting an alloy composition whose martensite start temperature is 350° C. or greater, and by selecting a cooling regime from the austenite phase through the martensite transition region that avoids regions in which autotempering occurs.

Title: Method and means for the further processing of printing products
Inventor: HONEGGER WERNER
IPC: B65H33/16
Filed: 1989-08-16
Granted: 1992-09-17
Abstract: Printed articles are converted and conveyed with high performance by a method wherein the printed articles are organised in clusters (2, 2'). A cluster of printed articles is a group of at least two individual printed articles which are jointly processed in cluster streams over a partial section or in a partial process. Such a cluster stream can be divided or reduced to a cluster stream of lower magnitude (decreasing number of printed articles per cluster). It is also possible to mix or combine cluster streams. As a result, it becomes possible to provide a processing performance at the desired positions, within an overall system, which in principle has no upper limit. At the same time, the process permits increased flexibility by means of special buffer facilities, redundancy, etc, with relatively low expenditure of materials and costs.
