Title: Test strip with an asymmetrical end insuring correct insertion for measuring
Inventor: JINA ARVIND N
IPC: G01N33/487
Filed: 1995-09-07
Granted: 1998-01-29
Abstract: For measuring an analyte in a liquid, a test strip and apparatus each have an asymmetry. The asymmetries combine to permit a test strip to be inserted into the apparatus when it is correctly aligned but prevent the test strip from being fully inserted if it is wrong side up. The apparatus also detects whether or not the strip has been fully inserted.

Title: Planar optical waveguides with double grooves
Inventor: ROGERS DAVID CARNEGIE
IPC: G02B6/34
Filed: 2000-05-19
Granted: 2005-02-10
Abstract: A method of producing a planar waveguiding device having a core [10] and a cladding [17]. The cladding has groves [11,12] directly interfacing [15,16] with the core [10]. A layer of core glass [10] is deposited on the surface of a substrate [23,24]. This layer is etched to produce a shaped layer which includes a first core portion [10] having the same configuration as the intended core [10] and an expanded core portion [30] wherein the core glass extends beyond the intended core boundary. A glass covering layer [21] is deposited over the etched core glass and grooves [11,12] are produced by etching through the covering layer [21] and into said expanded core portion [30]. This removes the core glass [30] extending beyond the intended core [10] boundary to produce interfaces [15,16] between the core [10] and the grooves [11,12]. All of the glasses are silica with additives to adjust the refractive index and/or the melting point.

Filed: 1997-11-06
Granted: 2001-07-05
Abstract: Fast and highly accurate mass spectrometry-based processes for detecting a particular nucleic acid sequence in a biological sample are provided. Depending on the sequence to be detected, the processed can be used, for example, to diagnose a genetic disease or chromosomal abnormality; a predisposition to a disease or condition, infection by a pathogenic organism, or for determining identity or heredity. A method and apparatus for creating multiple branch wells from a parent well is disclosed. A multiple branching sub is provided for placement at a branching node of a well. Such sub includes a branching chamber and a plurality of branching outlet members. The outlet members during construction of the branching sub, have previously been distorted into oblong shapes so that all of the branching outlet members fit within an imaginary cylinder which is coaxial with and substantially the same radius as the branching chamber. After deployment of the branching sub via a parent casing in the well, a forming tool is lowered to the interior of the sub. The outlet members are extended outwardly by the forming tool and simultaneously formed into substantially round tubes. Next, each outlet member is plugged with cement, after which each branch well is drilled through a respective outlet member. If desired, each branch may be lined with casing and sealed to a branching outlet by means of a casing hanger. A manifold placed in the branching chamber controls the production of each branch well to the parent well.

Title: Recombinant dna vectors capable of expressing apoaequorin
Inventor: CORMIER MILTON J
IPC: C12N1/00
Filed: 1985-12-18
Granted: 1989-10-26
Abstract: Homogeneous peptide of formula (I) and the corresp. DNA nucleotide sequence (II) are claimed. In an example E. coli transformed with pAEQ1 was extd. as well as the host strain. To 0.5 ml of each extract was added beta-mercaptoethanol (2mM) and coelenterate luciferin (0.1 mM) and the mixt. allowed to incubate at 4 deg.C for 20 hrs. This mixt. was then assayed for Ca2+-dependent photoprotein activity. Ca2+-dependent luminescence was observed in extracts from the recombinant pAEQ1, but no such luminescence was observed in extracts of the host strain or in extracts derived from any other transformant. The inserts in pAEQ1-6 cross hybridised suggesting that they contain homologous DNA sequences. However if the cDNA inserts in pAEQ2-6 were not of sufficient length or oriented improperly within the plasmid, apoaequorin activity in those extracts would not be expected.

Title: Revolving door
Inventor: ROCKENBACH MANFRED
IPC: E05F15/608
Filed: 1999-08-12
Granted: 2003-03-20
Abstract: A revolving door with a ceiling drive beam that is integrated into the ceiling construction, whereby the ceiling construction consists of two circular segments. The ceiling drive beam is located between the segments and is continuous over the inside diameter of the face band and is connected on the face side to the face band. The result is a component that braces and stiffens the ceiling construction, so that other elements of the ceiling construction, such as the struts that support the face band, can be realized lighter in weight and can be manufactured more economically. When the ceiling drive beam is adapted to accommodate face bands of different diameters, all that is necessary is an elongation of the ceiling drive beam on the end, while retaining its cross section.
