Abstract

A coreless-coil shock tube package system includes a "coreless" bundle of shock tubing, meaning that the tubing is not wrapped around a spool. The bundle may be a generally cylindrical coil of shock tubing. Optionally, two washer-like end plates abut the ends of the tubing coil for axial support. A self-adhesive tape covering partially covers the coil and end plates. A detonator is attached to one end of the tubing and lies tucked into the coil, through an end plate, for storage and transport. An igniter is attached to the tubing's other end. In use, the detonator is removed from the coil and attached to an explosive device. Then, the package is pulled away from the detonator and explosive, thereby uncoiling the tubing through the end plate for deployment. The igniter is actuated for igniting the shock tubing and activating the detonator and explosive.

One aspect of the present disclosure involves a networked initiation system having one or more non-energetic hold-down and release mechanisms (“HDRMs”), a control unit and an interface bus connected between all of the HDRMs and the control unit. Other aspects of the present disclosure involve networked initiation systems having one or more of each of non-energetic HDRMs, energetic HDRMs and other (generic) energetic devices. The systems also include a control unit and an interface bus connected between all of the HDRMs and/or energetic devices and the control unit. The system may be used on a spacecraft for holding various elements in place on the spacecraft during launch, and then activating the HDRMs and/or energetic devices at selected points in time after launch to release the elements for movement, e.g., into orbit or beyond.

The present invention features compositions and methods for quantifying detection of a target oligonucleotide in a sample in real time comprising one or more primer oligonucleotides comprising a 5′ nicking enzyme recognition site and a 3′-terminal region comprising a 2′-modified nucleotide. These methods are compatible with amplification of target oligonucleotides in a test sample, including biological samples, using a nicking amplification reaction.

Abstract

The present invention features compositions and methods for detecting Huanglongbing (HLB) in citrus trees and insects. In one aspect, the invention provides a method of detecting a Huanglongbing (HLB) infection in a citrus grove involving obtaining an extract from a biological sample derived from a citrus grove, contacting the extract with forward and reverse primers that specifically bind a Candidutus nucleic acid molecule in the presence of a nicking enzyme, dNTPs, and a polymerase under conditions permissive for the isothermal amplification of the nucleic acid molecule; and detecting a Candidutus amplicon in the extract.
