February 23, 2010. Estimated Expiration Date is calculated based on simple USPTO term provisions. It does not account for terminal disclaimers, term adjustments, failure to pay maintenance fees, or other factors which might affect the term of a patent.Patent References 3915647 Sample applying position marking device for film for electrophoresis Slab gel mold and electrophoresis apparatus Method and apparatus for obtaining an aliquot of a liquid in a gel medium Electrophoretic gel container Balanced oscillator with constant emitter voltage level Process for amplifying nucleic acid sequences Gel inserts useful in electrophoresis Container for an electrophoretic support medium Electrophoresis device with removable buffer tank InventorAssigneeApplicationNo. 438592 filed on 11/17/1989US Classes:435/288.3, Including a dish, plate, slide, or tray204/462, With posttreatment of gel to purify or recover a desired component204/613, With means for posttreatment of gel to purify or recover a desired component422/104, Holder, support, housing, or hood422/947, Using capillary action, including fluid transfer through absorbent matrix [B01L 3/00C6C]436/515, Through a gel (e.g., Ouchterlony technique, etc.)436/516ImmunoelectrophoresisExaminersPrimary: Warden, Robert J.Assistant: Trembley, Theresa A. Attorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassesG01N 033/559G01N 033/561 AbstractThe matrix carrier is a hinged compartment facilitating automation of DNA- and RNA-based diagnostics and genetic surveillance and detection. Specimens are embedded in a matrix in the carrier. The matrix is then treated by one or more of the techniques such as amplification, electrophoresis, and hybridization as selected for the desired analysis and then the sample is treated to detect the cellular component.Field of SearchSorption testingIncluding means for separating a constituent; e.g., filter, condenser, extractor, etc. Container Holder, support, housing, or hood Liberation or purification of sample or separation of material from a sample (e.g., filtering, centrifuging, etc.) Including use of a solid sorbent, semipermeable membrane, or liquid extraction Through a gel (e.g., Ouchterlony technique, etc.) Immunoelectrophoresis |
