Abstract: A bladeless cooling light includes an airflow assembly, a light assembly, and a housing. The airflow assembly includes an air circulation assembly positioned within the housing and an air passage structure connected to the housing, wherein the air circulation assembly draws air through the housing into the air passage structure. The air passage structure has a separation wall that delineates the air passage structure into an inflow air channel and an outflow air channel to improve the airflow through the air passage structure. A cone-tip hole grid and a wired heater within the air passage structure further improve airflow characteristics; the cone-tip hole grid constricts the flow, while the wired heater increases internal pressure by heating the air. The lighting assembly is mounted to the housing with the air passage structure being positioned around the lighting assembly, such that the light and expelled airflow are projected in the same direction.

Abstract: Arrays for genome-wide analysis of methylation are disclosed. In a preferred aspect arrays comprising a plurality of probes complementary to a plurality of identified CpG islands in the human, mouse and rat genome are disclosed. The arrays may be used to detect methylation within CpG islands in samples from human, mouse and rat genomes.

Abstract: The invention provides arrays for analysis of compromised nucleic acid samples, for example, nucleic acids obtained from formalin fixed paraffin embedded samples and methods to analyzed these compromised samples. Arrays are disclosed in which the probe selection region used to select probes for the array is the 300 bases of the target MRNA that are immediately upstream of the start of the poly(A) tail of the mRNA. The probes selected for the array are more biased toward the 3? end of the mRNA than other arrays that are currently available.

Abstract: The invention provides arrays and probes for resequencing a SARS virus using an array of probes that are complementary to a SARS reference sequence and to each possible single nucleotide substitution of the reference sequence. Methods of identifying mutations in viral sequences and methods of characterizing viral isolates are also provided. The invention also provides high throughput methods to monitor epidemics and pandemics caused by pathogens such as viruses.
