Abstract: A heat sink assembly for a power module is provided. The assembly includes a main body having a first cooling circuit and a second cooling circuit. The first cooling circuit includes a first plurality of channels, at least one first end channel, at least one second end channel, a first inlet, and a first outlet. The first cooling circuit is adapted to provide a first flow of a coolant through the main body. The second cooling circuit includes a second plurality of passages, at least one first end passage, at least one second end passage, a second inlet, and a second outlet. The second cooling circuit is adapted to provide a second flow of the coolant through the main body. The first cooling circuit and second cooling circuit is adapted to provide a cross flow of the first flow and second flow through the main body respectively.

Abstract: A size standard, kit includes a size standard, method of defining a size standard and method of analysis using a size standard. The size standard is intended to include size standard elements which have a size greater than and/or less than and/or different from the components of a sample which are to be sized. This means that the same characteristic unit, such as a dye, can be used to label the component and the size standard. A further characteristic unit, from amongst a limited number of such characteristic units is liberated from use only on size standards for use on components. The method is therefore particularly useful in multiplex amplification of STRs.
