20120118815 | METALLIC-CERAMIC COMPOSITE MEMBRANES AND METHODS FOR THEIR PRODUCTION - Metallic-ceramic composite membranes and methods for producing the metallic-ceramic composite membranes are disclosed. The metallic-ceramic composite membranes include the advantages of a metallic substrate relative to known ceramic substrates, such as high permeability, better mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance, and the advantages of a ceramic membrane, such as high permeability, high permselectivity, mechanic strength, and thermal stability. Therefore, a three-layer metallic-ceramic composite membrane, including a porous metallic substrate, a first, intermediate mesoporous γ-alumina membrane layer, and a second, top mesoporous γ-alumina membrane layer, is disclosed. Because of the high mechanical strength of the metallic-ceramic composite membrane and because the pores of the second mesoporous γ-alumina membrane have a narrow size distribution and average size of about 2.1 nanometers, the metallic-ceramic composite membrane can be used to separate gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO | 05-17-2012 |

20110186448 | DETECTION AND DISCRIMINATION OF TARGET DNA SEQUENCE AND SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE POLYMORPHISM DIRECTLY ON DOUBLE-STRANDED OLIGONUCLEOTIDE AND PCR PRODUCT WITHOUT DENATURATION OF DSDNA SAMPLE BASED ON PNA-DSDNA HYBRID AND UTILIZING PNA PROBE - A method of detection and discrimination of target DNA sequences and of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) directly on double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) samples without the need for denaturation of the target dsDNAs. This is achieved by the use of a PNA chain as a probe. This probe is self-assembled on a gold electrode; hybridization of the probe with the target dsDNA forms a PNA-dsDNA hybrid. The hybrid is then labeled with a mediator, and the PNA-dsDNA hybridization is monitored. Monitoring of the hybrid formation can be achieved using an electrochemical approach. This method is able to detect and discriminate target DNA sequences and SNPs on ds-oligonucleotides. Furthermore, this method is able to detect and discriminate target DNA sequences and SNPs on double-stranded PCR products. | 08-04-2011 |
