Abstract: A board game apparatus including a game board divided into a plurality of playing spaces connecting a starting space with a destination point. The players roll a die and move along the playing spaces accordingly. Upon landing on a playing space, the player has the choice to either answer an objective question or a subjective question in order to continue moving toward the destination point or pass. If the player incorrectly answers a question, he or she must move backward along the path between the starting point and the destination point. The objective cards each include a question and a correct answer, while the subjective cards include a question and two possible answers. The correct answer to a subjective question can be determined either by selecting a pre-determined answer printed on the card based on a poll of the general public or other selected group, or by polling the players.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for detecting the occurrence of a binding or complex-forming reaction between specific substances by utilizing the binding reaction to modify an electrical circuit, and then measuring a change in the electrical state of the circuit. A diagnostic element useful in such a method includes a layer of a biogenic substance, such as an antigen, coated onto a non-conductive base between a pair of electrical conductors superposed on the base. Antibodies which react with the antigen are treated so that they become bound to particles. The particles having antibody bound thereto are then added to is the antigen lay e base and allowed to react therewith. The particles are thereby bound to the base due to the binding reaction between the antigen and antibody to thereby form aggregates of electrically conductive particles which modify the circuit. The particles are then selectively coated with a conductive substance.

A diagnostic element useful in such a method includes a layer of a biogenic substance, such as an antigen, coated onto a non-conductive base between a pair of electrical conductors superposed on the base. Antibodies which react with the antigen are treated so that they become bound to fine electrically conductive, metallic particles. The electrically conductive particles having antibody bound thereto are then added to the antigen layer deposited on the base and allowed to react therewith. Electrically conductive particles are thereby bound to the base due to the binding reaction between the antigen and antibody to thereby form aggregates of electrically conductive particles which modify the circuit.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for detecting the occurrence of a binding or complex-forming reaction between specific substances by utilizing the binding reaction to complete an electrical circuit, and then measuring a change in the electrical state of this circuit. In a preferred embodiment, a layer of antigen is coated onto a non-conductive base between a pair of electrically conductive layers superposed on the base. Antibodies which react with the foregoing antigen are treated so that they become bound to fine electrically conductive, metallic particles. The electrically conductive particles having antibody bound thereto are then added to the antigen layer deposited on the base and allowed to react therewith. Electrically conductive particles are thereby bound to the base due to the binding reaction between the antigen and antibody to thereby form aggregates of electrically conductive particles which bridge the electrically conductive layers and complete the circuit.
