Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to emitting organic molecules, including but not limited to, pyrazoles such as 2-phenyl-2H-pyrazol-3-yl acetate, etc. In some cases, the molecules are able to emit in blue or green wavelengths. In some aspects, such molecules may be used in organic light emitting diodes. In certain embodiments, the molecules may comprise one or more bridge moieties and one or more chromophores. In some embodiments, these molecules can be used as electroluminescent media in devices requiring light emission as a function of applied voltage. Other embodiments of the disclosure are generally directed to systems and devices using such molecules, methods of using such molecules, e.g., to control the emission of light, kits involving such molecules, or the like.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to optoelectronic compounds, including certain nitrobenzoyl compounds, for example 2-(4-nitrobenzoyl)oxazole. In certain embodiments, these compounds can be used as electrochromic media in devices requiring change of optical absorbance or transmittance as a function of applied voltage. Examples of such devices include electrochromic mirrors, windows, displays, or the like. One specific example is solar and thermal control by smart, dynamic windows for energy-efficient buildings. Other embodiments of the invention are generally directed to systems and devices using such compounds, methods of using such compounds, e.g., to control the absorbance or transmittance of light, kits involving such compounds, or the like.

Abstract: Two amino acid sequences are joined together using an electron acceptor moiety and a linking moiety, such as a chelating agent. In particular, an amino acid sequence specific for binding to a material interest is linked to an enzyme which acts on an indicator, such as a colorimetric, phosphometric, fluorometric or chemiluminescent substrate. The linking composition is useful in immunoassays.

Abstract: The present invention is directed toward the use of a synthetic peptide as the antigen in an immunoassay for the detection of antibodies against the equine infectious anemia virus in the serum of horses. The synthetic peptide corresponds to the amino acid sequence of an antigenic portion of the GP-45 envelope protein of the equine infectious anemia virus. The immunoassay may be a direct second antibody immunoassay, a one or two step sandwich immunoassay, or a competitive immunoassay.
