20120319309 | Rechargeable, Portable, Misting Beverage System - A misting system utilizing spent ice comprises a portable housing and an inner frame. The inner frame is secured inside the housing and is configured to receive ice and at least one of food and beverage. The inner frame has an outlet for passing the melted ice. A lid is provided for selectively enclosing the inner frame. The system includes a pump. The pump is inside the portable housing, and is in communication with the inner frame outlet and an outlet of the portable housing. The pump is configured to pump melted ice from the inner frame to the outlet of the portable housing for use as mist. | 12-20-2012 |

20090053725 | Using DNA aptamers and quantum dots for the detection of proteins or other targets - The solutions provided here use DNA aptamers and quantum dots for the detection of bacteria, viruses, proteins or other targets. An example of a method described here comprises: providing a complex of DNA complementary strands, one strand being an aptamer, having one strand covalently linked to a quantum dot, and having the other strand linked to a quencher; and contacting said complex of DNA complementary strands with a microorganism or components thereof, under conditions that permit binding of said aptamer with said microorganism or components thereof. In some examples described here, the methods and systems are extremely simple to use and appear to have several advantages over the traditional ELISA. Since no blocking steps are required and the number of washing steps is reduced, the time required to conduct the test is greatly reduced. In some examples described here, a quantum dot aptamer complex comprises one strand of a duplex DNA molecule linked to the quantum dot by an amide bond. It does not matter if the aptamer or the complimentary strand is attached. However, the strand that is not attached contains a non-radiative quencher. Upon addition of the aptamers' target, the amount of light emitted by the quantum dots increases. In some examples described here, the methods and systems can also be used in reverse, with the aptamers' target immobilized on a microtiter plate. This permits an assay like a competitive immuno-assay. | 02-26-2009 |
