20110098935 | TECHNIQUES FOR DETERMINING THE EFFECTS ON A SYSTEM OF A COMPONENT THAT HAS FOUR STATES - Techniques for determining effects on a biological system include determining rate constants for a particular time interval starting at an initial time. Each rate constant indicates a rate of transition from one of four states to a different one of the four states for a component of a biological system in presence of an external factor. A temporal change in a probability that the component is in a particular state after the initial time is determined without numerical iteration over multiple time steps. This includes determining three relaxation time constants that describe exponential changes based on the rate constants. The effect of the external factor on the biological system is determined based on the temporal change in the probability that the component is in the particular state.

The disclosed methods may comprise fluorescent labeling of natural tRNAs (i.e., tRNAs that have been synthesized in a cell, for example, in a bacterium, a yeast cell, or a vertebrate cell) at dihydrouridine (D) positions, or fluorescent labeling of synthetic tRNAs. In another aspect, the present invention provides methods for assessing protein synthesis in a translation system comprise providing a tRNA having a fluorophore substitution for the uracil component of a dihydrouridine in a D loop of the tRNA; introducing the labeled tRNA into the translation system; irradiating the translation system with electromagnetic radiation, thereby generating a fluorescence signal from the fluorophore; detecting the fluorescence signal; and, correlating the fluorescence signal to one or more characteristics of the protein synthesis in the translation system. The disclosed methods are useful in single molecule as well as in ensemble settings. | 10-27-2011 |

20090293195 | EASILY CHANGEABLE ABSORBENT PANEL FOR BED CLOTHING - The securing layer such as a fitted sheet is modified to provide one half of a fastener, such as a zipper, and a separable, absorbent panel as adapted to overlay the top surface of a mattress and to underlay and be in direct contact of the occupant on the mattress. The separable, absorbent panel includes another fastener portion, such as the other side of a zipper, so as to secure the absorbent panel to the securing layer. The first and second fastener portions are to be located on the side surface of the mattress at the top, outer circumference of the mattress when the securing layer is applied to the mattress. In this manner, the fastener cannot be easily accessed by an infant so as to prevent the infant from loosening and becoming entangled in the absorbent panel. However, the absorbent panel is easily removed for quick changes in case the occupant of the mattress such as a baby, soils the absorbent panel. | 12-03-2009 |

20090300921 | LOTTERY TICKET SCRATCHER WITH LIGHT - A combination lottery ticket scratcher and light that can be in the shape of a icon, such as animals, mythological creatures, religious figures, symbols of luck, greed, sports teams, or other interest or affinities, etc. The lighted scratcher optionally has a key chain or other securing attachment and/or a brush, particularly for bearded characters or characters depicted as having many teeth. The light (e.g., one or more LEDs or light bulbs) projects light onto the end or work area of the lottery ticket scratcher. The light can represent a part of the character, such as the eyes, flame of a dragon, etc., can be colored to any color, have multiple colors or time varying colors, or project white or black light, or combinations thereof. The light can be activated by the user via a switch (e.g., push, squeeze, slide, etc.) or activated when the scratching tool is engaged with a surface during a scratching or scraping operation. The icon can symbolize good luck or good fortune, can be symbols of birth years, mascots, religious figures, mythical figures, or nearly an other character of interest to a potential user. The lighted lottery scratcher can be sold in combination with a gift pack of lottery tickets, for example. | 12-10-2009 |
