| 20100203516 | DETECTING ANALYTES USING BOTH AN OPTICAL AND AN ELECTRICAL MEASUREMENT METHOD - Provided is a method for detecting an analyte, wherein the analyte is labelled with one or more labels relatable to the analyte, which method comprises: a) performing an optical detection method on the labelled analyte to obtain optical data from the one or more labels; b) performing an electrical detection method on the labelled analyte to obtain electrical data from the one or more labels; and c) determining the identity and/or quantity of the analyte from both the optical and electrical data. Further provided is a method for detecting a plurality of analytes, wherein the each different analyte is labelled with one or more different labels relatable to the analyte, which method comprises: a) performing an optical detection method on a plurality of labelled analytes to obtain optical data from the labels; b) performing an electrochemical detection method on the plurality of labelled analytes to obtain electrical data from the labels; and c) determining the identity and/or quantity of the plurality of analytes from both the optical and electrical data. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20100315622 | LENS MOUNTING ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF ALIGNING LENSES IN A MOUNTING ASSEMBLY - A lens mounting assembly includes a lens barrel with a first lens assembly. A lens mount includes an image sensor, and the lens barrel matingly connects with the lens mount in a manner which allows the first lens assembly to be moved along an optical axis to adjust a focus on the image sensor. A second lens assembly is provided for adjusting the focus on the image sensor during use of the lens. An alignment projection is provided on at least one of the first or second lens assemblies, the alignment projection being adapted to mate with a portion of the other of the first or second lens assemblies in order to directly optically align the first and second lens assemblies with the image sensor | 12-16-2010 |
| 20110077166 | SURFACE ATTACHMENT - Provided is a method of attaching a substance to a surface, which method comprises contacting a surface comprising amine reactive groups with a substance labelled with a peptide tag such that the substance is covalently attached to the surface via the peptide tag, wherein the peptide tag comprises one or more histidine residues, one of which is a terminal histidine residue having a free N-terminal amino group. Also provided is a method of processing or analysis which comprises a method of attaching a substance to a surface as detailed above and comprises one or more further steps of processing or analysing the substance. The present invention further provides a method of processing or analysis comprising the steps of:

| 20100098074 | Systems and methods for providing a network link between broadcast content and content located on a computer network - The invention relates, in various aspects, to systems and methods for linking content stored on a computer network with content broadcast over a television network. The system includes a database, a trigger mechanism, a communications interface, and a packet generator. The database stores tokens representative of links to the stored content and delivery information representative of at least a duration for delivering the token. The trigger mechanism indicates an instruction to deliver a token over the television network, generating a signal indicating a respective one of the stored tokens and a time for starting the delivery of the respective token. The communications interface has a channel in communication with a television set box device for transferring the respective token to the television set box device. The packet generator generates packets within a stream of television content to be broadcast over the television network. | 04-22-2010 |
