Abstract:
The method and apparatus of this invention accommodate vibrations that occur in a body rotating about its geometric axis when the body passes through critical speed by maintaining the moment of inertia of the body while allowing the body to shift its rotational axis to that of its mass center. A disk (40) is bearing mounted on the drive shaft (11) of the rotating body and supported in its peripheral position by sliding bearings (60, 64, 68).
Abstract:
Apparatus and process for producing frozen particles of a liquid product having a liquid product nozzle (8) for introducing liquid product droplets (63) to be frozen and a plurality of cryogenic nozzles (12) for introducing a cryogenic liquid (36) directed away from the liquid product droplets (63).

Abstract:
The present invention provides a novel carbamazepine hydrazide compound suitable for covalent attachment to a polymer particle reagent, having general formula (1). The present invention also provides a novel carbamazepine acid compound suitable for attachment to proteins for the production of carbamazepine immunogens. The carbamazepine antigen of the present invention has general structure (2), where X is C=O, CH2 or SO2; Y is C=O, CH2, SO2; R is an alkyl and P is a protein or a hapten.
Abstract:
This concerns a method for substantially eliminating erroneous results in an immunoassay by using an immunoreactive antibody fragment conjugate as the detector antibody and non-polymerized IgG.
Abstract:
A diagnostic assay for lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme LD1, utilizing high molecular weight polyol and an ionic amphiphile to inactivate selectively the lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes LD2, LD3, LD4, and LD5, is provided.
Abstract:
A method for measuring or controlling the volume of a liquid segment confined within a tube and having a leading edge and a trailing edge. The tube is exposed to radiation at an angle and radiation refracted from the inner surface of the tube is measured at the leading and trailing edges of the segment while the liquid segment is moving through the tube.
Abstract:
This invention relates to quinidine derivatives and immunogenic conjugates and reporter conjugates prepared therefrom. The immunogenic conjugates and reporter conjugates are useful for eliciting antibodies and for performing immunoassays for quinidine. A particle agglutination immunoassay for quinidine is also provided.
