摘要:
Methods for efficiently capturing a target nucleic acid from a sample by using a mixture that contains a capture probe specific for the target nucleic acid, the target nucleic acid, and a denaturant chemical, which mixture is incubated at elevated temperature for a short time, are disclosed. Compositions that include a capture probe that specifically binds to a target nucleic acid and a denaturant chemical, which when mixed with the target nucleic acid and incubated at elevated temperature for a short time, promote efficient hybridization of the capture probe and target nucleic acid are disclosed.
摘要:
Methods of the invention separate a target nucleic acid from a sample by using at least one capture probe oligonucleotide that contains a target-complementary region and a member of a specific binding pair that attaches the target nucleic acid to an immobilized probe on a capture support, thus forming a capture hybrid that is separated from other sample components before the target nucleic acid is released from the capture support and hybridized to a detection probe to form a detection hybrid that produces a detectable signal that indicates the presence of the target nucleic acid in the sample. Compositions for practicing the methods of the invention include a capture probe oligonucleotide made up a target-complementary region sequence and a covalently linked capture region sequence that includes a member of a specific binding pair.
摘要:
The present invention concerns oligonucleotides containing one or more modified nucleotides which increase the binding affinity of the oligonucleotides to target nucleic acids having a complementary nucleotide base sequence. These modified oligonucleotides hybridize to the target sequence at a faster rate than unmodified oligonucleotides having an identical nucleotide base sequence. Such modified oligonucleotides include oligonucleotides containing at least one 2′-O-methylribofuranosyl moiety joined to a nitrogenous base. Oligonucleotides can be modified in accordance with the present invention to preferentially bind RNA targets. The present invention also concerns methods of using these modified oligonucleotides and kits containing the same.
摘要:
A coating based on diamond-like is formed from a plurality of films of diamond-like carbon formed alternatingly over one another and in this respect a film in which no portion or only a much lower portion of doped fluorine is contained. A film in which fluorine or at least fluorine with a higher portion than the film arranged thereunder or thereabove are formed alternatingly over one another. The coating could be manufactured by using a target of pure carbon. Films are deposited on a surface of a substrate by means of a PVD process, with the portion of fluorine contained in doped form. Films are formed alternately being varied by varying a supplied volume flow of a fluorine/carbon compound or sulfur/fluorine compound as a precursor.

The present invention relates to a method of regenerating a ruthenium catalyst suitable for hydrogenation, which comprises flushing the catalyst with inert gas in a regeneration step until the original activity or part of the original activity has been attained. The method is particularly useful for ruthenium catalysts which are used for the hydrogenation of aromatics.
摘要:
A covering system includes a flexible, web-like membrane having first and second portions. A first cross support is connected to the first portion of the membrane, and a second cross support is connected to the second portion of the membrane. A drive mechanism is provided for moving the second cross support relative to the first cross support so that the membrane is movable between a first, retracted position and a second, deployed position. The drive mechanism includes a force multiplication mechanism for facilitating a longitudinal tensile stress application to the membrane when it is in the second, deployed position. A transverse tensioning mechanism that includes a catenary linkage is also provided for tensioning the membrane in a direction that is transverse to the longitudinal direction.
摘要:
A tube unit for the enteral feeding of a patient, with a tube segment that extends along at least a segment of the axial direction (S) and a retention device on the distal end of the tube segment, which extends in at least one direction radially to axial direction (S) beyond the distal end of the tube segment in an extended position and which has a smaller diameter in an elongated position, in which the retention device is elongated along axial direction (S). The retention device moves from an extended position into the elongated position is supported by a control device.

An apparatus for combining under sterile conditions a liquid component held in a first container and a solid or liquid component held in a second container is provided. In one embodiment, two hollow bodies for receiving the two containers are provided, the two hollow bodies being arranged one within the other and being slidable relative to one another in a guided manner in the longitudinal direction. A cannula holder forms a pot-shaped structural unit with the first hollow body. Alternatively, the cannula holder is provided with at least one cannula. The cannula holder and the first hollow body may be separate components, in which the cannula holder is pot-shaped.
摘要:
A mixture of platelet-shaped, copper-containing metallic effect pigments having a copper content of 60% to 100% by weight, based on the total metal content, with at least one further component, where the copper-containing metallic effect pigments have a thickness distribution, determined via thickness counting by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and represented as cumulative undersize distribution, a) with an h50 of 10 to 100 nm, and b) with an h90 of 20 to 150 nm, and in that the at least one further component is a cellulose derivative selected from the group consisting of alkylcellulose, hydroxyalkylcellulose, alkyl(hydroxyalkyl)cellulose, and mixtures thereof, and/or is at least one additive having antioxidative and/or radical-inhibiting properties. The disclosure further relates to a method for producing this mixture, and to a coating composition.
