| 20090093065 | ASPIRATING AND DISPENSING SMALL VOLUMES OF LIQUIDS - A metering device for aspirating and dispensing a liquid includes a housing; a pumping medium, preferably a gas containing chamber contained within the housing; a channel having a proximate end in fluid communication with the chamber and a distal end in fluid communication with an external environment; a heat or cold source providing a source of heat or cold to the gas containing chamber; and a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature inside the chamber. In a preferred embodiment, the device further includes a pressure sensor for measuring gas pressure inside the chamber, or multiple chambers. A method for aspirating and dispensing a liquid includes: providing a metering device for aspirating and dispensing a liquid that includes a housing; a gas containing chamber contained within the housing, the chamber; a channel having a proximate end in fluid communication with the chamber and a distal end in fluid communication with an external environment; a heat or cold source providing a source of heat or cold to the gas containing chamber; and a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature inside the chamber; providing a source of liquid to be aspirated; bringing the distal end of the channel into contact with the liquid; cooling the gas containing chamber with the heat or cold source to aspirate a first volume of liquid into the device; and heating the gas containing chamber to dispense a second volume of liquid out of the device. In a preferred embodiment, the metering device is a used in a diagnostic analyzer for determining the presence of one or more analytes in a sample. | 04-09-2009 |

| 20100015690 | USE OF FLUID ASPIRATION/DISPENSING TIP AS A MICROCENTRIFUGE TUBE - A fluid aspirating/dispensing member includes a sample cavity for sample acquisition and a sealable cavity that, once sealed, permits the separation of particles from the remainder of a fluid sample within the sample cavity after centrifugation or other separation means. The fluid aspirating/dispensing members, either individually or as part of an array, increase the efficiency of sample processing before analysis by a clinical analyzer. | 01-21-2010 |

| 20080230935 | Methods for producing a pitch foam - Methods to produce a pitch foam from a hydrocarbon carbonaceous precursor material. A gaseous blowing material is dissolved in the carbonaceous precursor material, and the resultant solution is pressurized in a vessel. As the solution is exhausted from the vessel, the gaseous blowing agent and the hydrocarbons of the carbonaceous precursor material evaporate from the pressurized solution to form a foam-like solution. The pitch foam is formed from the foam-like solution by directing the foam-like solution onto a surface, whereupon, the foam-like solution solidifies into the pitch foam. | 09-25-2008 |
