C12Q001/68
C12Q001/70

US Classification:

435/006000, 435/005000

Abstract:

Currently, three technologies are utilized for analysis of gene expression: hybridization-based technologies, PCR-based technologies, and sequence-based technologies. The present invention provides a method for analyzing the presence and/or amount of a specific nucleic acid using a solid support and a capture probe complementary to a region of a target nucleic acid, and polymerizing a labeled extension complementary to the target nucleic acid. The invention provides a method of analysis of all types of nucleic acids, and can be used to study multiple genes in a single assay using different capture probes conjugated to different class of microspheres that can be mixed in any desired combination.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/02

US Classification:

705 1445, 705 1441

Abstract:

System and methods are provided for analyzing and displaying digital content and advertisements over electronic networks. In accordance with one implementation, a method is provided that calculates, using at least one processor, an engagement metric (including, for example, click probability) for a specific combination of time, promotion slot, and user segment, for an individual promotion of a set of promotions, and calculates a value of a landing page associated with the promotion. The method then can multiply the engagement metric and the value to determine the valuation of the promotion. The method can operate recursively by using previous calculations in later runs of the same method.

International Classification:

F01M 11/03

US Classification:

208179, 21016708, 21032189

Abstract:

An oil circulation system and method for continuously purifying engine oil including an engine operably connected to an oil reservoir, wherein at least one stream of oil is conveyed from the oil reservoir to the engine via a conduit, and circulated through the engine and conduit via engine operating pressure and/or one or more pumps, and at least one membrane unit positioned in a path of the oil stream such that oil containing dissolved/emulsified droplets of water is fed continuously through the membrane unit. A cross flow hollow fiber module adapted to be positioned in a system for continuously purifying engine oil, the hollow fiber module having a central feed distributor tube, hollow fiber membranes positioned around the central feed distributor tube, end caps with ports for receiving and emitting a flow of sweep air, and optionally a shell casing, wherein the central feed distributor tube includes openings sized and positioned to allow oil to flowing into the feed distributor tube to flow out radially.

Abstract:

Fresh produce is preserved by coating the exterior surface of the produce with a coating composition comprising an aqueous solution of from about 0. 5 to about 4 percent by weight of a cellulose derivative, preferably sodium carboxymethylcellulose, from about 0. 05 to about 0. 5 percent by weight of konjac, and from about 0. 03 to about 0. 1 percent by weight of surfactant, preferably dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate. Optional constituents include antimicrobials, plasticizers and antifoaming agents. The coating composition is effective to control respiratory exchange, i. e. , the passage of gases, particularly oxygen, ethylene, carbon dioxide and water vapor, into and out of the produce, thereby to control maturation and ripening of the produce.

Abstract:

A method for forming a fluorinated oxostannate film involves vaporizing a volatile fluorinated alkyltin compound having at least two hydrolytically sensitive functional groups or at least two reactive functional groups which are sensitive to oxidation at a temperature greater than 200 C.; providing a substrate; physisorbing or chemisorbing the fluorinated alkyltin compound onto the substrate; and exposing the physisorbed or chemisorbed fluorinated alkyltin compound to a sequence of hydrolysis, irradiation, and/or oxidation steps to form the fluorinated oxostannate thin film on the substrate. Fluorinated alkyltin compounds having formula (I) are also described, in which Ris a fluorinated or partially fluorinated linear or branched alkyl group having about 1 to about 5 carbon atoms, X is a dialkylamino group having about 1 to about 4 carbon atoms, and n is 1 or 2:
