Abstract: Methods for the rapid detection of the presence or absence of Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2) in a biological or non-biological sample are described. The methods can include performing an amplifying step, a hybridizing step, and a detecting step. Furthermore, primers, probes targeting the genes for HSV-1 viral DNA polymerase B (HSV-1 Pol) and HSV-1 thymidine kinase C(HSV-1 TK), and also target the genes for HSV-2 thymidine kinase C(HSV-2 TK) and HSV-2 glycoprotein B (HSV-2 gB), along with kits are provided that are designed for the detection of HSV-1 and/or HSV-2.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a thermal management system and method between a heat generating chip and a housing in an electronic apparatus. The system comprises: a housing; a heat generating chip arranged in the housing, wherein an air gap between the heat generating chip and adjacent portion of the housing is not less than 5 mm, and the dominant heat transfer mode is radiation; a heat insulation layer filled in the air gap between the heat generating chip and the housing, wherein the heat insulation layer is in contact with the heat generating chip, the heat insulation layer has an area no less than that of the heat generating chip, and the heat insulation layer has a thermal conductivity not smaller than that of air.

Abstract: A method of simultaneously amplifying genotypes 1, 2, 3 and/or 4 of HEV is disclosed comprising amplifying the genotypes 1, 2, 3 and/or 4 of HEV with one single none-degenerate forward primer partially overlapping the 5?UTR region of HEV and at least one reverse primer. Also disclosed are related methods comprising a probe, and kits for the detection of genotypes 1, 2, 3 and/or 4 of HEV.
