International Classification:

H01R 1200

US Classification:

439 83, 29739

Abstract:

A method for providing a mechanical/electrical interconnection between two circuit boards, and the interconnection components required therefore, include a pin and socket each having a tail portion, a shoulder portion and a head portion. The tail portion of the pin is sized so as to fit into a plated through hole of the first board, the head portion is sized so as to allow an automated device to capture the head portion and to rest on top of the plated through hole when inserted therein, and the shoulder portion is sized in relation to the plated through hole so as to rest inside the plated through hole and to allow a predetermined amount of solder to flow under the head portion and down into the plated through hole, but not as far down as the tail portion, thereby assisting in centering the pin in the through hole. Upon heating to a solder reflow temperature, a ring of solder, around the periphery of the head portion of the pin and the shoulder portion of the socket, flows under the head of the pin and the shoulder of the socket, thereby forming a soldered electrical connection between the pin and the first board, and the socket and the second board. By aligning the pin with the socket and inserting the tail portion of the pin into the cavity of the socket, a separable reliable mechanical and electrical interconnection is formed between the first board and the second board.

Abstract:

A water-soluble reference standard is useful for immunoassays of a lipophilic drugs. The reference standard is a compound of formula (I):G-(L)—Y;  (I)where G is a lipophilic drug; L is a linker which is an alkyl group or heteroalkyl group containing from 1 to 20 carbon atoms; n is 0 or 1; and Y is a water-solubilizing group such as —SO, —NR—SO, —P(═O)(OH)(O), or —O—P(═O)(OH)(O); where R is H or an alkyl group of 1 to 10 carbon atoms.

US Classification:

702 19, 435 6, 702 20, 703 2, 703 11

Abstract:

Provided herein are methods for evaluating associations between candidate genes and a trait of interest in a population. The methods include a combination of genome-wide association analysis and one or more of nested association mapping (NAM), expression QTL analysis (eQTL), and allele epistastic analysis (AEA). Markers are selected or prioritized if they are shown to be positively-correlated with a trait of interest using GWA and a combination of one or both of NAM and eQTL. Also provided are models for evaluating the association between a candidate marker and a trait in a nested population of organisms. These methods include single marker regression and multiple marker regression models. Markers identified using the methods of the invention can be used in marker assisted breeding and selection, as genetic markers for constructing linkage maps, for gene discovery, for identifying genes contributing to a trait of interest, and for generating transgenic organisms having a desired trait.

US Classification:

800278, 435 6, 800295

Abstract:

Provided herein are methods for mapping quantitative trait loci in a connected population of organisms. The invention includes evaluating associations between markers and a trait of interest using network population mapping (NPM). The methods include assembling a network of individual members for association mapping, wherein the members are connected at the allelic level. Members of the network are grouped according to a shared haplotype at one or more marker loci, and the network can be used to identify or validate QTL within the chromosomal region surrounding or flanked by the marker loci. The methods further include a means for estimating and ranking the effects of multiple alleles across the mapping population. Further provided is a novel simple interval mapping model as well as a novel composite interval mapping model for evaluating allele-specific associations across a connected mapping population.
