Abstract: A flexible radiofrequency receiving coil array. The flexible radiofrequency receiving coil array is provided on a flexible panel and comprises several rows of coil units. Adjacent two rows of coil units in the several rows of coil units are alternately arranged. Preamplifiers are provided in the coil units. In the flexible radiofrequency receiving coil array, two preamplifiers in adjacent two coil units are provided on a same preamplifier mounting plate on the flexible panel, where multiple preamplifier mounting plates are provided on the flexible panel, and the preamplifier mounting plates of different columns and rows are linearly arranged. The flexible radiofrequency receiving coil array effectively reduces the distribution density of the preamplifiers, ensures the flexibility and maximum degree of distension of the coil array, and improves the fit of the coil array to the human body, thus increasing image signal-to-noise ration and image quality.

The electronic thermostat includes a first valve for controlling the flow rate of the cooling water supplied to a first passage for connecting a first outlet of the electronic thermostat and a water pump and includes a second valve for controlling the flow rate of the cooling water flowing through a second passage for connecting the outlet of a radiator and a cylinder block of the engine.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the detection of a target nucleic acid sequence from a DNA or a mixture of nucleic acids by a PCE-hCTO (PTO Cleavage and Extension using hCTO) assay on a solid phase. According to the present invention, the extended duplex is formed in a liquid phase in a target-dependent manner and then its presence is detected on a solid phase. Since hCTO is not immobilized onto a solid phase, the extended duplex is more effectively formed in a liquid phase.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the detection of a target nucleic acid sequence by a PTOCE (PTO Cleavage and Extension) assay. The present invention detects a target nucleic acid sequence in which the PTO (Probing and Tagging Oligonucleotide) hybridized with the target nucleic acid sequence is cleaved to release a fragment and the fragment is hybridized with the CTO (Capturing and Templating Oligonucleotide) to form an extended duplex, followed by detecting the presence of the extended duplex. The extended duplex provides signals (generation, increase, extinguishment or decrease of signals) from labels indicating the presence of the extended duplex and has adjustable Tm value, which are well adoptable for detection of the presence of the target nucleic acid sequence.
