  • Kite stability and weight
    Patent number: 6016998
    Abstract: A combination of a kite and a helium balloon wherein the whole is lighter than air so allowing the said combination to fly with or without wind.The kite hangs from the bottom of the balloon and is secured flush with the balloon by adhesive tape. New balloons can be put on at any time using the tape. The kite has a large keel for stability and a tail.

  • Methods for measuring telomere length
    Patent number: 5834193
    Abstract: Methods and compositions for the measurement of telomere length have application in medical diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic procedures. The methods for measuring telomere length include primer extension-based methods and probe-based methods. The primer extension methods involve elongation of telomeric, linker, and/or subtelomeric based primers under conditions such that the telomere serves as a template for primer extension and that the resultant primer extension products can be compared to standards of known length to provide a measure of telomere length. The probe based methods allow for telomere length measurements using DNA from lysed or whole cells and involve hybridizing an excess of probe to all telomeric repeat sequences in the telomere, measuring the amount of bound probe, and correlating the amount of bound probe measured with telomere length.
