Abstract: An electrical connector includes a differential signal pair. A portion of each terminal is disposed in an insulative housing and an electrically conductive shield extends around at least a portion of the terminals and a least a portion of the housing. The housing may have a lower surface and a projection extending downward from the lower surface between a portion of a vertical section of each of the terminals. The terminals may have an angled section including a vertical portion having a first width, an angled portion narrower than the vertical portion, and a horizontal portion narrower than the angled portion. The housing may have a housing mating component spaced from a housing body component and aligned with but spaced from the terminals. The terminals may have a planar termination section with a first portion wider than a second portion.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are matrices for isolating a biological macromolecule from a biological sample, the matrix comprising: a biopolymer capable of binding to the biological macromolecule, wherein the biopolymer is about 0% to about 10% dissolvable in water at a pH of about 6 to about 8 and at ambient temperature but is about 10% to 100% dissolvable in a chaotropic solvent or an organic solvent, and wherein the biopolymer is not squid ring teeth protein; and a surfactant, excipient, or combination thereof. Also provided are methods of using, and kits comprising, the matrices. The disclosed matrices aid in collecting and releasing near quantitative amounts of a biological macromolecule from a biological and/or test sample.
