  • DIAGNOSTIC METHODS FOR COLITIS
    Publication number: 20130164753
    Abstract: A method of screening for, diagnosing or detecting the presence of Brachyspira sp. Sask30446 and/or colitis in a subject comprising detecting a Brachyspira sp. Sask30446 polynucleotide or polypeptide in a sample of the subject, wherein detection of the Brachyspira sp. Sask30446 polynucleotide or polypeptide is indicative of the presence Brachyspira sp. Sask30446 and/or that the subject has colitis or has an increased risk of developing colitis.

  • Electronic die positioning device and method
    Patent number: 7066788
    Abstract: An autocollimator is relied upon to orient an electronic die such that its frontside is parallel to a polishing surface. The polishing device is configured such that a beam of light that is projected by the autocollimator is able to reflect off of the backside surface of the die. Measurement off of the backside surface allows the die's parallelism relative to the polishing surface to be established without removing the die from the polishing surface and allows the die's orientation to be monitored and adjusted while the frontside is being deprocessed.
