  • Publication number: 20180223303
    Abstract: The present invention provides DNA molecules that constitute fragments of the genome of a plant, and polypeptides encoded thereby. The DNA molecules are useful for specifying a gene product in cells, either as a promoter or as a protein coding sequence or as an UTR or as a 3? termination sequence, and are also useful in controlling the behavior of a gene in the chromosome, in controlling the expression of a gene or as tools for genetic mapping, recognizing or isolating identical or related DNA fragments, or identification of a particular individual organism, or for clustering of a group of organisms with a common trait. One of ordinary skill in the art, having this data, can obtain cloned DNA fragments, synthetic DNA fragments or polypeptides constituting desired sequences by recombinant methodology known in the art or described herein.

  • Publication number: 20090201577
    Abstract: An apparatus for providing light to molecules of a specimen in a fluorescence microscope includes a light emitting diode and an optical element including a phosphor. The molecules have a peak excitation wavelength. The LED emits light at a first wavelength; the phosphor is capable of receiving the light at the first wavelength and emitting light at a preselected second wavelength different than the first wavelength. The second wavelength is substantially similar to the peak excitation wavelength of the molecules.

  • Publication number: 20090040763
    Abstract: A light source for fluorescence microscopy is designed to provide relatively constant illumination (lumens) of the specimen over the useful life of the light generator, such as the bulb, arc, or filament. In another aspect, the present invention provides for a light source for fluorescence microscopy designed to reduce heat transmission to optical components from the light generator, while providing adequate transmission of the required excitation wavelengths of light.
