20090117622 | MIXTURE OF REVERSIBLY INHIBITED ENZYMES - The invention relates to composition or a kit containing an enzyme that is reversibly inhibited by means of a chemical modification and an enzyme which is reversibly inhibited using non-covalent binding, the use of a mixture of enzymes reversibly inhibited in such a manner for processing or multiplying polynucleotides, and a method for specifically amplifying DNA by simultaneously using both types of reversibly inhibited enzymes. | 05-07-2009 |
20120107813 | QUANTIFICATION OF NUCLEIC ACIDS - The invention relates to a method for the quantification of one or more nucleic acids in a sample. The method comprises the following steps: making a sample available which contains at least one nucleic acid to be quantified, adding an oligonucleotide probe to the sample, the oligonucleotide probe comprising a sequence which can specifically hybridize to the nucleic acid to be quantified or to a common sequence of the nucleic acids to be quantified, incubating the sample under conditions which allow the hybridization of the oligonucleotide probe to the nucleic acid(s) to be quantified, incubating the sample under conditions which allow the extension of hybridized probes, the nucleic acid(s) serving as a template in each case, removing the non-hybridized probes from the sample and quantifying the hybridized oligonucleotide probes to measure the quantity of the nucleic acid(s) to be quantified. The invention also relates to a kit for carrying out said method. | 05-03-2012 |
20140154748 | THERMOSTABLE CHIMERIC NUCLEIC ACID POLYMERASES AND USES THEREOF - Novel thermostable chimeric nucleic acid polymerases and methods for their generation and use are disclosed. It is shown that these chimeric nucleic acid polymerases, such as DNA polymerases, can be constructed using enzymatically active domains, isolated from different proteins or chemically synthesized. It is demonstrated that chimeric nucleic acid polymerases of the present invention possess the chemical and physical properties of their component domains (e.g., exonuclease activity, thermostability) and that the chimeric polymerases are thermostable. | 06-05-2014 |

20130176687 | EXPANDABLE CONTROL UNIT AND CONTROL SYSTEM FOR INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS - A control unit for industrial applications is provided comprising a first compute box having a first microprocessor and being configured to run at least one first operating system. A second compute box may also be provided having a second microprocessor and being configured to run at least one second operating system. The first and second operating systems may be the same or different. The compute boxes may be mechanically coupled together or connected via one or more copper or fiber-optic cables, for example. Additional compute boxes may be added to expand the capabilities of each control unit. An integrated or detachable display may also be added. A control system for controlling a plurality of local input and output drops or devices is also provided. The control system includes a plurality of control units that may be distributed around an industrial installation and capable of data transfer between each control unit. | 07-11-2013 |
20130177017 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REFLECTIVE MEMORY - A node has at least one memory module comprising at least one reflective memory region configured to reflect at least one reflective memory region of one or more other nodes, and the node and the one or more other nodes being configured to communicate on a packet-based serial point-to-point topology network. The node also comprises at least one network switch configured to provide at least two links each configured to connect to at least one non-host peer node on the network, multicast to the one or more other nodes at least one change to the at least one reflective memory region, receive from the one or more other nodes at least one other change to the at least one reflective memory region, and communicate to the at least one memory module the received at least one other change to the at least one reflective memory region. | 07-11-2013 |
20130179621 | EXTENSIBLE DAISY-CHAIN TOPOLOGY FOR COMPUTE DEVICES - Devices, systems and methods for providing a daisy-chain topology for networking compute devices having PCIe bridges are disclosed. The daisy-chain topology is an extensible PCIe or similar standard solution that allows for a variable number of nodes. The topology has no chassis and no fixed slots, and there is no single device or bridge designated as the PCIe root. This topology allows additional devices to be added to the daisy-chain without construction of a new chassis. Some or all of can be mechanically coupled to provide a common communication channel. Once connected on the expansion link, any device has the ability to communicate to any other device on the daisy-chain. The devices on the daisy-chain are able to let their CPU or processors directly talk to those of another device. This results in a master/master relationship rather than one device serving as the master and the remaining devices the slaves. | 07-11-2013 |
20130179722 | RING TOPOLOGY FOR COMPUTE DEVICES - Devices, systems and methods for providing a ring topology for physically connecting compute devices having PCIe bridges are disclosed. Each device, having an internal PCIe bus or other similar standard that natively support a tree structure, is connected in a ring to neighboring compute devices. Two physical links connecting each device to the ring are provided, enabling each device to communicate with all of the other devices on the ring, without requiring a server or main host to enumerate or control the flow of information between devices. If a failure occurs in the physical connection at any single point in the ring, there is still an alternate path to communicate with every device. Methods for performing data transfer between PCIe compute devices connected to the ring are also disclosed. | 07-11-2013 |
