  • Patent number: 7513781
    Abstract: An improved heating element connector assembly includes an insulative, rectangular frame with a central opening, and a plurality of conductive terminals which are press fit into openings in the frame. The terminals are spaced apart from each other lengthwise of two opposing sidewalls of the frame, and pairs of terminals are aligned with each other between the two sidewalls. A plurality of conductive strips are held together in an assembly and the ends of the strips are interconnected along two spaced apart lines by carrier members that may be molded over the ends of the conductive strips. The carrier members extend down into cavities on the frame and terminals are pushed into the cavities to bear against the ends of the strips and effect an electrical connection between the terminals and the strips.

  • Publication number: 20020164777
    Abstract: A device for measuring electrophysiological properties of a cell membrane of an individual cell comprises a plate provided with at least one opening. The opening is bounded by a surface and the surface is modified, such as via heat treatment, to facilitate formation of a gigaseal. A chamber is adjacent to the plate. The chamber is in fluid communication with at least one opening and is adapted to hold an electrically conductive solution. The plate further comprises a first electrode located in the chamber and a second electrode located adjacent to the plate.

  • Patent number: 6309889
    Abstract: The invention provides exemplary devices and methods to facilitate the performance of assays. In one embodiment, one such device comprises a holding member having a top surface, a bottom surface, and a plurality of holding locations that are adapted to hold at least one article, such as a solid support and/or a cell. When within the holding locations, the articles are preferably disposed below the top surface. A membrane is positioned above the top surface of the holding member, and a pressure system is provided to apply positive pressure to the membrane to force the membrane against the top surface of the holding member. In this way, a seal may be provided between the holding locations.
