20090029388Detection of Antibodies - The present invention relates to a method for detecting antibodies against a target antigen in a sample which comprises contacting the sample with labelled target antigen, subjecting the sample to immunoprecipitation to precipitate antibodies in the sample and detecting the presence of antibodies against the target antigen in the sample by means of the presence of labelled target antigen in the immunoprecipitate, wherein the labelled target antigen is a fusion protein comprising the target antigen and a fluorescent protein label and the presence of labelled target antigen in the immunoprecipitate is detected by means of the fluorescence of the fluorescent label. The method is particularly suitable for use where the target antigen is an autoantigen and can also be used to identify autoantigens implicated in a particular autoimmune disorder by screening serum samples from patients with a clinical phenotype indicative or suggestive of an autoimmune disorder and suitable controls. The target protein may be from the cys-loop acetyl choline receptor ion channel gene superfamily, the voltage-gated calcium, sodium or potassium ion channel gene superfamily, the glutamate receptor gene family, a receptor tyrosine kinase, or other membrane associated channels such as aquaporin gene family.01-29-2009

20090108814Battery Switch Sensor - The invention relates to a battery switch for use in a multi-battery vehicle to selectively connect or isolate batteries from each other. It includes a detector to monitor the voltage of at least a first battery to detect consistently present transient voltages and on detection of such voltages to connect or maintain connected the battery to at least a second battery. The detector monitors the continuance of transient voltages and additionally monitors the voltage of at least the first and second battery, and isolates the batteries from each other where the voltage of either battery falls below a specified voltage despite the detection of transient voltages at the first battery. The invention also relates to a method of initiating the interconnection or disconnection of at least two batteries on a single vehicle, and to a method of detecting the existence of a charging supply on a supply line to an open battery isolating switch.04-30-2009
