...strands can be found in several lengths and 8 cool colors, but more than that they are reusable if you change the batteries.The illuminated strands don't fade suddenly, but in time so you have enough time to get the new batteries, and this happens in about 11 hours of use." Source

...strands. In addition, the tSMS method simplifies the DNA sample preparation process and maximizes throughput by packing individual strands of DNA at high densities onto the sequencing surface A look at Helicos' True Single Molecule Sequencing(tSMS) technology: tSMS enables the simultaneous sequencing of large numbers of strands of single DNA...

...strands of the molecule, and then using the individual strands as templates to create two daughter strands, again with the help of proteins. The second half of Szostak's experiment showed that his protocell could have carried out the template-copying part of the reaction The group created a protocell containing a single-stranded genetic...

...strands in a bowl of cooked spaghetti. Contrast that to the vast majority of other proteins, whose individual strands have similar structures, like the individual strands of uncooked spaghetti With a 'normal' protein," Stultz said, "you can measure the lengths of individual molecules and the average will be a pretty good description of any...

...strands to create the open lattice IsoTruss structure of each frame tube. Each bundle of carbon fiber strands are wrapped with Kevlar and then baked at 255 degrees Fahrenheit for four hours. The ends of the baked tubes are then machined before being joined with molded carbon fiber lugs to make a complete frame. The completed frame weighs just...

...strands of DNA which only have about 10 pairs of chemical bases. This new research shows that much longer strands of DNA with hundreds of pairs of chemical bases seem able to recognise each other as a whole without protein involvement. According to the theory, this recognition mechanism is stronger the longer the genes are The researchers...

...strands. The scientists found that the enzyme readily recognized and repaired lesions on one of the DNA's two strands that occurred all to one side of a reference lesion on the opposite strand (think of it as "upstream"). These upstream lesions were successfully repaired regardless of whether there were only two or many lesions in the damage....

...strands. When you place the brush on an object, the strands will sense it and turn on a light to give the camera a clear picture of what object you are trying to pick up. Then it'll take a snapshot of the object and store it in internal memory. When you're ready to paint, it will recall the image and "paint" it onto a digital canvas sort of...
