Publication number: 20220364156Abstract: A synthetic molecule can be added to a sample at a specified concentration to accurately and/or precisely quantify target molecules included in the sample. The synthetic molecule can include a number of nucleotides. Some of the regions of the synthetic molecule can include sequences that correspond to primers used in an amplification process and other regions of the synthetic molecule can include sequences that are machine-generated. In implementations, an initial number of target molecules included in the sample can be determined based on a number of the target molecules included in an amplification product in relation to the number of synthetic molecules added to the sample.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2020Publication date: November 17, 2022Inventors: Thomas Ishoey, Brian Clement, Jonathan Sanders, Heather Callahan

Patent number: 8246203Abstract: A low profile light comprises mating front and back housings (12, 14), between them defining the thickness of the light. An attachment is provided on the back housing, whereby the light is attachable to a base on which the light is to be mounted. A circuit board (16) mounts circuit elements (36) and interconnecting conductive tracks to which LED devices (28) are connected. The board is enclosed and sandwiched between said front and back housings. The front housing is transparent or translucent to transmit light emitted from the LED devices. The circuit elements and LED devices are arranged to be powered by AC mains electricity. The thickness of the light is no greater than 10% more than the sum of the thicknesses of said front and back housings and the maximum 15 dimension of a minimum power-rating two-core mains electricity power cable (18). That is, it is less than 10 mm thick.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2008Date of Patent: August 21, 2012Assignee: Benchmark Electronics LimitedInventors: Gavin Hancock, Elliott Makin, Anthony Jonathan Sanders
