  • Publication number: 20220260525
    Abstract: A system for assaying a biological sample for a presence of a target analyte includes an assaying device and a computer controller. The assaying device includes a housing, a receptacle disposed in the housing, and a source of activation energy. The receptacle is configured to accept an electrophoresis cell. The electrophoresis cell has a recess area configured to accept a chip configured to accept the biological sample. The chip includes a polymeric separation medium with activatable functional groups that covalently bond to the target analyte when activated. The source of activation energy is configured to supply activation energy to activate the activatable functional groups. The computer controller is operably coupled to the source of activation energy and is configured to activate the source of activation energy to direct an application of activation energy to the polymeric separation medium to activate the activatable functional groups.

  • Patent number: 5170146
    Abstract: A leadless electrical resistor (40), comprising a parallelepiped dielectric body (42), or chip, having a resistive film element (44) on one face. A pair of conductive terminations (46) are connected to opposite ends of the resistive element in order to form a chip resistor. A second resistive film element (54) is formed on the opposing face of the dielectric body in a direction perpendicular to the first resistor. A second pair of conductive terminations (56) are connected to opposite ends of the second resistive element (54) in order to form a second resistor on the back side of the chip. The terminations of the second resistor are on adjacent sides of the chip body compared to the terminations of the first resistor, thus forming a chip resistor (40) having two resistive elements (44 and 54) with terminations (46 and 56) on the four vertical walls of the chip.
