Abstract: A transient electromagnetic device with variable shape and turns includes squares, a transmitting coil carrying frame, a transmitting coil, a turns-variable device, a current generator and a working power supply. The transmitting coil carrying frame is arranged inside the transmitting coil; the transmitting coil carrying frame is configured as a carrier of the transmitting coil, and configured for adjusting a side length of the transmitting coil and a shape of the transmitting coil; the square is configured for clamping and connecting the transmitting coil and the transmitting coil carrying frame to fix the transmitting coil to the transmitting coil carrying frame. The current generator is configured for generating transient current; the turns-variable device is configured for changing the turns of the transmitting coil; and the transmitting coil is configured for transmitting the transient current to a target area to be measured.

Abstract: Methods useful for human adapting non-human monoclonal antibodies are disclosed. The methods select candidate human antibody framework sequences from a human germline framework database.

Abstract: Described herein are novel methods to purify plasmid DNA from host cells. After a standard lysis procedure that releases plasmid DNA from the host cells, two sequential precipitation procedures separate plasmid DNA from essentially all impurities of the host cells. An optional third precipitation procedure further polishes the plasmid DNA for its most demanding applications, such as for gene therapy or pharmaceutical uses.

Abstract: Compositions comprising OB-R agonists and methods of treatment for conditions such as systemic inflammatory response syndrome are provided. One suitable OB-R agonist ligand is recombinant human OB protein, also known as leptin. Also provided are methods and compositions for the treatment of obesity and OB resistance. Assay methods and kits relating to these conditions are also included.

Abstract: A method for cloning a nucleic acid fragment into a vector by flanking the fragment with first and second adapter sequences, and contacting the fragment with the vector having sequences homologous to the first and second adapter sequences under conditions such that the nucleic acid fragment is incorporated into the vector by homologous recombination in vivo in a host cell. Additionally, a method for selecting for a successful transformation of a vector by a nucleic acid insert. Also, systems for cloning a nucleic acid fragment into a vector without at least one of a restriction enzyme, a ligase, a gyrase, a single stranded DNA binding protein, or other DNA modifying enzymes. Further, a kit for cloning a nucleic acid fragment into a vector.
