20100323369 | Diagnostic Testing Process - A method and apparatus for use in a flow through assay process is disclosed. The method is characterised by a “pre-incubation step” in which the sample which is to be analysed (typically for the presence of a particular protein), and a detection analyte (typically one or more antibodies bound to colloidal gold or a fluorescent tag) which is known to bind to the particular protein may bind together for a desired period of time. This pre-incubation step occurs before the mixture of sample and detection analyte come into contact with a capture analyte bound to a membrane. The provision of the pre-incubation step has the effect of both improving the sensitivity of the assay and reducing the volume of sample required for an assay. An apparatus for carrying out the method is disclosed defining a pre-incubation chamber for receiving the sample and detection analyte having a base defined by a membrane and a second membrane to which a capture analyte is bound. In one version the pre-incubation chamber is supported above the second membrane in one position but can be pushed into contact with the membrane carrying the capture analyte thus o permitting fluid transfer from the incubation chamber through the capture membrane. In another version the membrane at the base of the incubation chamber is hydrophobic and its underside contacts the capture membrane and when a wetting agent is applied to the contents of the pre-incubation chamber fluid transfer occurs. | 12-23-2010 |

20120260827 | FIBER CEMENT BUILDING MATERIALS WITH LOW DENSITY ADDITIVES - This invention relates to a formulation with the addition of low density additives of volcanic ash, hollow ceramic microspheres or a combination of microspheres and volcanic ash or other low density additives into cementitious cellulose fiber reinforced building materials. This formulation is advantageously lightweight or low density compared as compared to current fiber cement products without the increased moisture expansion and freeze-thaw degradation usually associated with the addition of lightweight inorganic materials to fiber cement mixes. The low density additives also give the material improved thermal dimensional stability. | 10-18-2012 |

20140138045 | COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS REFRIGERATED VEHICLE AND REGULATOR THEREFOR - The present invention concerns in a broad aspect refrigeration systems, and, in particular, mobile refrigeration systems that are powered by compressed natural gas. The system efficiently stores compressed natural gas (CNG) and converts the CNG to natural gas that can be used to power a refrigeration unit throughout the course of a day independently of the refrigeration vehicle's main engine thereby reducing operational costs and minimizing harmful emissions. The system includes a compressed natural gas storage source providing compressed natural gas, a regulator receiving the compressed natural gas and converting it to natural gas by reducing the pressure, a generator adapted to run on natural gas and output power in single or 3-phase mode and to receive the output of the Regulator; and a refrigeration unit powered by the generator. | 05-22-2014 |

20100206142 | Pipe plug and cap holding tool - The pipe plug and cap holding tool includes an elongate shaft having a magnetic square drive end and an opposite rotating handle. The handle end may include a square drive socket, and the medial portion of the shaft preferably includes a padded handgrip surface. The tool is used for the installation and removal of ferrous pipe fittings, i.e., caps and plugs, from relatively inaccessible installations. Cap or plug removal is accomplished by first loosening the fitting conventionally and installing a square drive socket of appropriate size or diameter on the drive end of the tool. The socket is positioned over the fitting and the tool is rotated using the medial grip portion, with the rotary handle held stationary to steady the tool. The fitting is retained in the socket due to the magnetic tip of the square drive. Installation of a fitting is accomplished by reversing the above procedure. | 08-19-2010 |
