Did You Know...
...that the Eveready Battery began as an invention called the "electric flowerpot," which was a tube with a battery and light bulb inside? The idea was to fasten this gizmo to the side of a flowerpot so it would illuminate the flowers from the bottom. The idea died on the vine and the businessman who licensed the flower pot, Conrad Huber, was left with a pile of useless tubes -- until he found a way to market them as batteries to light the world!

| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 4150105 | 3-Ketosteroid antigenic conjugates, their preparation, antibodies and use Antigenic 3-ketosteroid hapten-carrier conjugates are produced by activating a carbon atom in the 1,2 or 4 position of the steroid hapten and coupling to an immunogenic carrier through a linking agent. Specific antibodies are raised in animals and used in... | 04/17/1979 |
| 4097586 | Immunochemical assay method Haptens and antigen derivatives are coupled, through an azo bond, to proteins to form a conjugated material. The conjugate is injected into laboratory animals to raise antibodies which are useful in immunochemically assaying for the original haptens and a... | 06/27/1978 |
| 4064228 | Antigens and immunoassays for morphine and related 3-oxybenzomorphan compounds Antigens capable of generating antibodies specific to morphine and other 3-oxybenzomorphan compounds are prepared by conjugating 3-oxybenzomorphan derivatives with immunogenic carriers employing a linking site on an aryl group of the 3-oxybenzomorphan oth... | 12/20/1977 |
| 4036823 | Barbituric acid antigenic conjugates, their preparation, antibodies and use Antigenic barbituric acid conjugates are produced by coupling the hapten acid through its 3-position to an immunogenic carrier. The antigens thus produced can be used to raise antibodies in animals, the antibodies being specific to the barbituric acid hap... | 07/19/1977 |
| 4022878 | Methods and compounds for producing specific antibodies This invention relates to a novel method of producing purified antibodies which are truly specific for native homologous hapten or antigen by administering artificial antigens as described therein to an antibody producing host followed by isolation and pu... | 05/10/1977 |
| 4016146 | Phenethylamine antigenic conjugates, their preparation, antibodies, and use Antigenic phenethylamine conjugates are produced by blocking the amine of the phenethylamine hapten with a group, coupling of the phenethylamine to a carrier, and removal of the blocking group. Specific phenethylamines useful in this invention are ampheta... | 04/05/1977 |
| 3996344 | Phenethylamine antigenic conjugates, their preparation, antibodies and use Antigenic phenethylamine conjugates are produced by blocking the amine of the phenethylamine hapten with a group, coupling of the phenethylamine to a carrier, and removal of the blocking group. Specific phenethylamines useful in this invention are ampheta... | 12/07/1976 |
| 3995021 | Antigens of 5,5'alkylphenyl barbituric acids and related hydantoin compounds Antigens comprising 5,5'-alkylphenyl barbituric acid haptens and related 5,5'-phenylhydantoin haptens coupled to a carrier through an azo group connected meta or para on the phenyl ring are prepared by diazotization of the corresponding amine. Specific an... | 11/30/1976 |
| 3975342 | Tyrosyl-class antigenic conjugates, their preparation and antibodies raised thereto Tyrosyl, thyronine, and histidyl compounds of the formulas: ##SPC1## Where R' is selected from the group consisting of --OH and --NHPp and R" is selected from the class consisting of --H and --COPp, where Pp is a polypepti... | 08/17/1976 |
| 3940475 | Radioimmune method of assaying quantitatively for a hapten A radioimmune method of assaying quantitatively for a hapten comprising contacting an aqueous sample containing the hapten under assay, a known quantity of a radioactively labeled marker which incorporates a hapten homologous to the hapten under assay, an... | 02/24/1976 |
