Abstract: The subject invention pertains to methods for the analysis of pooled samples without the need of retesting through the use of oligonucleotide hybridization and target-specific amplification reactions. Specifically, a series of identifier oligonucleotides with different sequence compositions, each corresponding to a distinct sample, are combined into the target template of interest through nucleic acid synthesis. The aforementioned products are pooled together, and the pooled samples are amplified and detected using the probe-based hybridization assay or a size separation module to identify if any of the pool of samples test positive, as well as simultaneously identifying which sample is positive for the targeted sequence.

Abstract: A pipe body, wherein the pipe body (10) has a welded portion (11) at both ends of the pipe body, aligned in a widthwise direction of the pipe body (10). The thickness of the welded portion (11) decreases gradually from the inside to the outside of the pipe, and an outer end of the welded portion (11) is located at a center portion of the pipe body (10) in a thickness direction. The configuration of the welding structure enhances the strength of the welded portion of the pipe, so that the pipe will not crack easily when it is reworked by flaring or bending, thus having high reworkability. In addition, a pipe (100) made of the pipe body (10) and a method of making the pipe (100) are disclosed.
