20100003701COVALENT MODIFICATION AND CONJUGATION OF LUCIFERASE - A process for reversible chemical modification of the luciferase, a process for the covalent conjugation of a reversibly modified luciferase to a chemical moiety (a protein or a binding partner such as biotin or an antibody), a process for reactivation of the reversibly-modified and inactivated luciferase, a process for making the said luciferase conjugates and a bioluminescent assay method that uses covalently conjugated firefly luciferase are taught. The present invention also relates to a composition comprising a reversibly modified luciferase, as well as a composition comprising a reversibly modified luciferase covalently conjugated to a chemical moiety.01-07-2010

20100116812DRY FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM - A dry fire protection system for a water heater is provided. The water heater includes a body having an elongated hollow for holding water to be heated, an inlet opening and an outlet opening in communication with the hollow for flowing water therethrough. A heating element is coupled to the body for heating the water within the hollow. The dry fire protection system comprises a sensing element disposed in the hollow of the body for detecting the presence of water in the hollow. The sensing element is spaced from and operably connected to the heating element. The sensing element is configured to generate a voltage in response to a temperature of the sensing element. A controller is operably connected to the sensing element for monitoring the generated voltage across the sensing element. The controller is configured to prevent a supply of electrical power to the heating element as a function of the generated voltage.05-13-2010

20100043486HEATING APPARATUS FOR AN APPLIANCE - A heating apparatus for heating a subcompartment in a compartment of an appliance is disclosed. The heating apparatus includes an electromagnetic member disposed in the compartment, and a metal member thermally coupled to the subcompartment. The metal member is magnetically coupled to the electromagnetic member to generate an eddy current in the metal member in response to a magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic member for heating the subcompartment. A related heating method and a refrigerator incorporating such a heating apparatus are also disclosed.02-25-2010
