Abstract: The invention relates to a method for identifying and quantifying a polypeptide from a library of polypeptides. The method comprises the steps of: 1—providing a polypeptide library and a detection tag library, 2—generating a nested library comprising the polypeptides and the detection tags, 3—sequencing the nested library, 4—selecting a member of the nested library in one or several selection steps that are independent of a physical genotype-phenotype linkage, 5—isolating the detection tag from the selected polypeptide, 6—identifying and quantifying the detection tag by mass spectrometry, 7—obtaining the sequence of the selected polypeptide. The invention also relates to a collection of polypeptides, a collection of detection tags, and a collection of plasmid vectors.

Abstract: A process for the manufacture of an electrooptical display device including a circuit board and a liquid crystal display cell mounted on the circuit board, including forming a circuit board having at least one light conducting region; disposing the liquid crystal display cell adjacent the light conducting region of the circuit board; locating at least one light emitting element in the circuit board for illuminating the light conducting region; and attaching a semi-transparent reflector to the liquid crystal cell; wherein at least part of the circuit board is manufactured by combining a reflecting layer, which is produced by the deposition of a reflective material on a substrate or on one side of a mesh, with a light diffusing substance, by embedding these two materials together in a transparent polyester or epoxy resin.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display, and process of manufacture therefor, emloying an integrated reflector internal to the liquid crystal cell, and consisting of a guest-host liquid crystal layer sandwiched between two cell plates and located between front and rear electrodes. At least the front electrode is composed of segments and parts of the reflector and/or rear electrode that lie opposite the conduction paths leading to these segments are at an electrical potential whose difference from the potential of the conduction paths is smaller than the threshold voltage of the liquid crystal layer used.

Abstract: An electrooptic display device which can be operated either in the transmission or reflection mode. The display device consists of a liquid crystal display cell and a semitransparent reflector located in or on a circuit board having a light emitting element disposed therein and characterized by at least one light conducting region.

Abstract: A novel light scattering reflector and methods of making and using it are disclosed. The reflector, which can advantageously be used in conjunction with liquid crystal displays, includes a layer carrier formed of glass or rigid PVC foil. The layer carrier is roughened by sandblasting, impressing with a grooved die, or by other techniques to provide an irregular surface. A reflective metal coating is subsequently evaporated onto the roughened surface to complete the reflector structure. Auxiliary materials may also be coated onto the layer carrier to improve the characteristics of the device.
