Abstract: An apparatus for testing emissions from a packaged integrated circuit is described. The apparatus comprises an ATE for generating input stimulus to said integrated circuit, a universal PEM board. The apparatus further has an electrical connector between said ATE and said universal PEM board and means for wiring the connections from ATE leads to pin leads of said packaged integrated circuit so that the packaged integrated circuit can be biased and stimulated correctly. Jumper wires are provided to allow many to one and one to many connections; and the apparatus includes a photodetector to collect the emitted photons.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a matured, glycosylated Spike (S) protein of SARS Coronavirus, fragments of the S protein, methods for producing the same, their use in detecting SARS infection, and their use or the use of their corresponding antibodies to treat patients suffering from SARS.

Abstract: Compositions related to expressed severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus group-specific polypeptides are provided. Further provided are methods and compositions related to the use of these polypeptides, in particular use for inducing apoptosis in cells, diagnosing SARS infection and screening for modulator and inhibitor compounds of such polypeptides and in turn the virus itself, and in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of disease caused by SARS infection.
