  • Publication number: 20230417743
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to antibody-linked immuno-sedimentation agent, the antibody being linked to a sedimentation agent by a non-antigen binding region of the antibody, and a method of isolating a target from a sample using the antibody-linked immuno-sedimentation agent. The methods involve forming a mixture including a sample with an antibody linked immuno-sedimentation agent and red blood cells under conditions sufficient to form red blood cell rouleaux and allow antibody-antigen binding.

  • Patent number: 9040000
    Abstract: Devices and methods are described herein that are configured for use in laboratory testing, such as, for example, during a procedure including the monitoring and detection of chemical reactions. For example, the systems and devices described herein can be used during a procedure to monitor and detect polymerase chain reactions (PCR). In some embodiments, a sample container includes a container body that defines an interior volume and has an open end in fluid communication with the interior volume. A cap is sealingly engageable with the open end of the container body. The cap defines a receptacle that is configured to extend within a portion of the interior volume of the container body when the cap is sealingly engaged thereto. The receptacle can receive therein a sensor, such as, a temperature sensor that can monitor the temperature of a sample material disposed within the container body.

  • Patent number: 5378449
    Abstract: Potassium superoxide can be used to generate and regenerate Basic Hydrogen Peroxide, the primary fuel for Chemical Oxygen-Iodine Lasers. The solid reacts with depleted BHP/H.sub.2 O.sub.2 solution consuming one equivalent of hydrogen peroxide and producing two equivalents of hydroperoxide, reversing the chlorine/BHP reaction that evolves singlet delta oxygen, the energetic species in the COIL system. This same regeneration reaction can be used to generate new BHP solutions by reaction of potassium superoxide with dilute hydrogen peroxide or a protic mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid. These reactions of potassium superoxide provide new and useful methods of generating and regenerating BHP, that significantly decrease COIL system weights and environmental impact.
