  • Publication number: 20230193357
    Abstract: Presented herein are methods and compositions for enhancing specific enrichment of target sequences in a nucleic acid library. Off-target hybridization probes may be used to reduce binding and/or capture of off-target regions of a nucleic acid library in a targeted sequencing workflow. The off-target hybridization probes may be specific for locations known to generate off-target sequencing reads for a particular set of hybridization probes.

  • Patent number: 11678642
    Abstract: A carrier for an animal includes a plurality of panels, a wire frame, a clip and an iso clip. The plurality of panels are configured to form a hollow enclosure for housing the animal. The wire frame supports at least one of the panels so as to maintain the shape of the enclosure. The clip is on a front surface of the carrier, and configured to receive a belt portion of a seat belt of a vehicle. The iso clip is on at least one of a rear surface and a bottom surface of the carrier, and configured to couple to an iso anchor of the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 7909579
    Abstract: A rotor head includes a hub and two joint members. The hub has opposite tubular end portions, each formed with a socket that extends inwardly from an end face thereof along a tube axis and that has inner and outer socket sections. Each of the joint members includes a link and a vibration absorbing component. The link has a hub coupling segment retained rotatably in the inner socket section of a respective socket, an intermediate segment extending from the hub coupling segment and disposed movably in the outer socket section of the respective socket, and a blade coupling segment extending from the intermediate segment and outwardly of the outer socket section. The vibration absorbing component is mounted on the intermediate segment, and is disposed in the outer socket section.
