20140302492 | METHOD OF DETECTING AND/OR QUALIFYING AN ANALYTE IN A BIOLOGICAL SAMPLE - An aptamer-based SERS detection technique that directly monitors an aptamer-analyte capture event by generating spectroscopic information regarding the identity of the analyte that has been bound to the aptamer from a complex biological sample. A reproducible SERS spectrum is measured for an aptamer-analyte complex formed on a metal surface and this spectral information is used directly to identify the specific aptamer-analyte complex and optionally also to quantify the analyte in the sample, thus enabling discrimination between true and false positives in quantitative analyte assays on complex biological samples. In one embodiment the aptamer is attached directly to the metal surface and surrounded by a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of amphiphilic molecules. In an alternative embodiment the metal surface is coated with a SAM and the aptamer is attached to the amphiphilic molecules of the SAM. | 10-09-2014 |

20110174513 | Shielding Device for Wires Located in Light-Emitting Apparatuses - A shielding device is provided for protecting wires, cables and the like from rays, heat and the like, in a wire harness manufacturing assembly. The shielding device comprises at least one wire-covering member, such as a tube through which the wire extends. The tube is adapted to be displaced between a wire-revealing position and a wire-concealing position, wherein in the former position, the tube allows the wire to be exposed to the rays, whereas in the latter position, the tube is in a ray-exposure area and at least partly shields the wire from the rays. Typically there are two aligned tubes slidably displaceable towards and away from each other so as to respectively assume the wire-concealing and wire-revealing positions. A compressed air source, in fluid communication with an inside of the tubes, cools the wire when in the wire-concealing position. | 07-21-2011 |

20080314352 | Edge-pivot charge-motion control valve system for an internal combustion engine manifold runner - An edge-pivot charge-motion control assembly for controlling air turbulence comprising a molded sleeve inserted into a runner port of an intake manifold of an internal combustion engine. A control valve element is pivotably mounted in the sleeve for external actuation. The valve element pivots into a formed recess in a wall of the sleeve and thus may be fully removed as desired from the air stream. The system allows customizing of the valve shape and also the entrance and exit geometry of the runner sleeve as desired for any engine intake manifold, thus affording great flexibility in use with a series of engines of various displacements using essentially the same head. The charge motion function between engines, and even between runners in a given engine, can be changed inexpensively by changing a small, relatively inexpensive mold tool, rather than a large, very expensive manifold mold tool. | 12-25-2008 |

20090097703 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CAPTURING IMAGES MOVING AT HIGH SPEED - An image of a moving object, such as a postage indicium barcode on a mail piece, is captured with the object in motion (e.g., while being transported through a mailing machine). An array of CMOS picture elements is held in a reset condition. A signal asserted on control pin ends the reset condition and places the picture elements in an image capture condition. With the picture elements in a picture capture condition, a strobe light is actuated at a time when the barcode is predicted to be present at the picture element array. After the strobe light has been actuated, the signal on the control pin is de-asserted to initiate a read-out of the image data from the picture elements. | 04-16-2009 |
