  • Patent number: 11501747
    Abstract: Aspects are disclosed of a filler for occupying a volume. The filler includes an expandable filler positioned in the volume so that it occupies a percentage of the volume. The expandable filler can permanently expand from a first dimension to a second dimension upon the application of an expansion trigger. The filler also includes an acoustic filler made up of a plurality of acoustically active beads positioned with the expandable filler in the volume so that the acoustic filler can adsorb gas flowing into the volume. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20220073962
    Abstract: The present invention is concerned with methods for analyzing RNA molecules. The provided methods involve conjugates for RNA cleavage comprising a chemical moiety with RNA cleaving activity and an oligonucleotide. The oligonucleotide is designed based on a target sequence present in an RNA molecule, and the cleavage of the RNA molecule is inter alia carried out at conditions allowing the hybridization of the oligonucleotide to the target 5 sequence. Thereby, the method is easily applicable to RNA molecules of any sequence. The method further involves the analysis of the RNA fragments obtained after cleavage to obtain information on the physical properties of the RNA molecule.
