Methods and apparatus for nucleic acid synthesis using oligo-templated polymerization

A method and apparatus for synthesizing nucleic acid (NA) by sequential addition of nucleotide triphosphates to a single stranded NA molecule (growing-chain) is described. The growing-chain is annealed to an oligonucleotide, wherein the 3′ end of the oligonucleotide is complementary to the 3′ end of the growing-chain and wherein the protruding 5′ end of the oligonucleotide has the correct sequence to serve as a template for the growing-chain to produce a NA product. The growing-chain is then brought into contact with a polymerase in the presence of one or more nucleotide triphosphates under conditions permitting the polymerase to catalyze addition of one or more nucleotide triphosphates to the 3′ end of the growing-chain using the annealed oligonucleotide as a template. After polymerization has occurred, the annealed growing-chain and oligonucleotide are denatured so that the steps can be repeated until the NA product of desired length is synthesized.

Method and apparatus for trace based adaptive run time compiler

InactiveUS7725885B1High execution speed without performing unnecessary compilationCost timeProgram controlMemory systemsParallel computingByte
The present invention relates to a mechanism for adaptive run time compilation of traces of program code to achieve efficiency in compilation and overall execution. The mechanism uses a combination of interpretation and compilation in executing byte code. The mechanism selects code segments for compilation based upon frequency of execution and ease of compilation. The inventive mechanism is able to compile small code segments, which can be a subset of a method or subroutine, and comprising only single path execution. The mechanism thereby achieves efficiency in compilation by having less total code as well as having only straight line, or single path execution, code to compile.

Harnessing Flowing Fluids to Create Torque

An apparatus and method for producing high output and low cost / time, sustainable energy (e.g., wind or water) via natural currents that is environmentally friendly and includes a gravity-assisted equalizing control system is provided. Wings with a large surface area can be included in the design, as well as an optional counterbalance system that synchronizes the wings' position and speed with a mechanical leverage point on the body of the device. When a fluid flows past wings of the device, the fluid flow induces motion in the wings, which causes a shaft to move, creating torque at the generator. The outcome is a coordination of harmonizing the wings pitch angle to the natural frequency of a fluids specific velocity. The device can adapt itself to the velocity of the surrounding fluid through a rotational sweeping control system that produces a more streamlined profile to maximize reliability.

Power factor correction circuit with a coil

The switched-mode power supply according to the invention has a power factor correction circuit, which operates on the principle of a current pump and has a first coil for damping voltage spikes, as well as a second coil for power factor correction. The two inductances are in this case connected in series and are arranged on a coil former and on a common core. In one preferred exemplary embodiment, an E / E ferrite core is used as the core, and a coil former with chambers is used as the coil former, with the windings of the two inductances being arranged in different chambers. An empty chamber, which is located in the region of the air gap in the core, is advantageously arranged between the two inductances. This partially decouples the two inductances by means of the air gap, so that the damping response of the first inductance is better.

Application for Informing Physicians and Patients of Tapered Medical Doses

Process for the computer generation of prescribing information, and printable calendar, for a medicinal drug taper (escalating or deescalating). This process allows the user, generally a practicing physician, to use an application on a variety of different platforms. This is useful in any medication in which the dosage must be escalated or de-escalated. This is perhaps most common with respect to steroid prescriptions, wherein the physician prescribes dosages that steadily decrease over time, especially if the patient has been on the steroids for an extended period of time. The application also gives physicians the option to increment dosage over time, and ultimate control over when the daily doses are determined. The calculation and dosing calendar will be available to the physician, patient, any attending nurse, and any prescribing pharmacist.
