20090087919Method and Apparatus for Measuring Protein Post-Translational Modification - The present invention includes a method for analyzing reactions. The method includes the steps of providing a solution of at least one acceptor chemical and at least one donor chemical. The donor chemical is capable of donating a chemical moiety to the acceptor chemical. The solution further includes at least one controller chemical that affects the reaction between the donor chemical and the acceptor chemical. The solution is then incubated so that a portion of the acceptor chemical reacts with the donor chemical to form an acceptor product. Unreacted donor chemical is separated from the acceptor product. The acceptor product or the donor chemical is then measured using X-ray fluorescence. Another aspect of the present invention includes a method for analyzing protein function. The method includes the steps of providing a solution of at least one acceptor chemical and at least one donor chemical. The donor chemical is capable of donating a chemical moiety to the acceptor chemical. The donor chemical includes a functional group selected from ester, anhydride, imide, acyl halide, and amide. The solution is then incubated so that a portion of the acceptor chemical reacts with the donor chemical to form an acceptor product. Unreacted donor chemical is separated from the acceptor product. The acceptor product or the donor chemical is then measured using X-ray fluorescence. Yet another aspect of the present invention includes a method for analyzing protein function. The method includes the steps of providing a solution of at least one acceptor chemical and at least one donor chemical. The solution is then incubated so that a portion of the acceptor chemical reacts with the donor chemical to form an acceptor product. Unreacted donor chemical is separated from the acceptor product. The acceptor product or the donor chemical is then measured using X-ray fluorescence. An additional analytical method is also used to measure either the acceptor product or the donor chemical.04-02-2009

20090203017Use of Nucleic Acid Probes to Detect Nucleotide Sequences of Interest in a Sample - The invention relates to methods for the determination and detection of nucleic acids sequences in a sample. The nucleic acid may be RNA or DNA or both. The invention also relates to methods for the determination of the presence and species of various microorganisms in a sample. We have also identified a set of oligonucleotide nucleic acid sequences within the rRNAs of Gram-negative organisms that facilitates both the broad identification of Gram-negative organisms as a class when used as a pool, or in combination, for example in a hybridization assay. This set of oligonucleotides may detect sequences that are indicative of the presence of organisms of the broad class of Gram-negative organisms while exhibiting little or no false identification of Gram-positive organisms, and fungi, or other microorganisms. The assay includes concurrent incubation with at least one nucleotide sequence of interest, at least one nucleic acid probe, a fluorosurfactant, and a nuclease. The assay may further be employed to detect the presence of bacteria, fungi, or other microorganisms by use of additional specific probes, or to detect and/or identify target nucleic acid sequences in a sample. Further, the invention also relates to methods of reducing non-specific binding and facilitating complex formation in a binding assay. The binding assay may be, but is not limited to, a nucleic acid hybridization assay or an immunoassay. The invention also relates to methods of detection that employ at least one target of interest, which may be a nucleotide sequence, at least one probe, which may be a nucleic acid probe and a nuclease.08-13-2009

20090123655PROCESS FOR MAKING INKJET RECORDING ELEMENT - A method of making an inkjet recording element is disclosed in which the inkjet recording element has a support and, on the support, (a) a porous base layer comprising particles of fumed silica and a hydrophilic binder and (b) an optional porous gloss layer above the base layer comprising particles of colloidal silica and a hydrophilic binder, wherein the particles of fumed silica and colloidal silica are anionic. The method can produce an inkjet recording element having improved image quality, including reduced coalescence and higher gloss.05-14-2009
20090123674INKJET RECORDING ELEMENT - An inkjet recording element is disclosed having a support and, on the support, (a) a porous base layer comprising particles of fumed silica and a hydrophilic binder and (b) a porous gloss layer above the base layer comprising particles of colloidal silica and a hydrophilic binder, wherein the particles of fumed and colloidal silica are anionic. Also disclosed is a method of printing on such an inkjet recording element. The inkjet recording element can potentially have, in some embodiments, the advantages of improved image quality (reduced coalescence) and higher dye ink optical densities.05-14-2009
