Abstract: A method of forming a viewing panel for a microwave oven can comprise: placing a film including a conductive coating into a mold and molding a substrate to a surface of the film having the conductive coating to form the viewing panel; or injection molding a substrate and applying a conductive coating to a surface of the substrate after molding to form the viewing panel; wherein the substrate is selected from a transparent polymer or glass; the conductive coating has an EMI shielding effectiveness of greater than 25 d B from 30 MHz to 3.0 GHz as determined by ASTM D4935; and the viewing panel has a transmittance of greater than or equal to 50% of incident light having a frequency of 430 THz to 790 THz.

Abstract: A method for designing a primer for real-time PCR comprises retrieving a primer set using a known primer search algorithm and based on primer design conditions, visually displaying the retrieved primer set together with its splicing information and base sequence, narrowing the primer set using narrowing conditions, and visually displaying a narrowed primer set together with its splicing information and base sequence.

Abstract: A technology that allows a consensus sequence targeted for primer design to be easily displayed is provided. In sequence data of analysis targets, a consensus nucleotide sequence is generated by performing multiple sequence alignment based on nucleotide sequence, and a consensus amino acid sequence is generated by performing multiple sequence alignment based on amino acid sequence, followed by generating additional consensus nucleotide sequence by reverse translation of the consensus amino acid sequence. In other words, two consensus sequences consisting of the consensus sequence based on nucleotide sequence and the consensus sequence based on amino acid sequence are generated. One of these two consensus sequences can be chosen as a target for primers on a screen to input parameters for primer design.
