Abstract: A bandpass filter can be configured, which includes a filter structure that includes a filter chamber and a group of tuned elements including first tuned elements and last tuned elements, wherein the first tuned elements and the last tuned elements include a pin that joins a connection medium to connect to a radio frequency (RF) signal path. An outer perimeter can connect to a ground plane present on the connection medium. The ground plane can form a bottom of the filter chamber. The group of tuned elements can be folded into a shape that occupies a space midway between a top lid and the ground plane. Alternatively, the group of tuned elements can be located above the ground plane on a single side of the filter structure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel system for nucleic acid engineering utilizing components of IS110 family transposons. IS110 transposases encoded by IS110 elements were identified to utilize an RNA sequence, termed the bridgeRNA, which targets donor and target sequence sites for polynucleotide recombination reactions. In certain aspects, the application relates to the utilization and reprogramming of the bridgeRNA to direct IS110 transposases to integrate sequences at predetermined sites. Programmable insertion, excisive recombination, and/or inversion enables the integration or transposition of any polynucleotide sequence encoding a donor site or target site recognized by the IS110 transposase into any other polynucleotide sequence containing a target site sequence or donor site sequence, respectively, using an IS110 transposase and bridgeRNA.

Abstract: A kitchen exhaust hood assembly comprises a front subassembly and a rear subassembly connected together. The connected subassemblies including a top portion and opposed side surfaces. A pair of side panels is connected to opposed sides of the front and rear subassemblies. A series of threaded studs welded to either the front or rear subassemblies or to the side panels project into and through openings formed through either the front or rear subassemblies or the side panels such that the side panels are secured to the front and rear subassemblies secured to the threaded studs.
