...inspire them, Saga developed techniques to combine different fur types and colors, as well as to dye, print, shave and twist fur and to treat it so that it can endure dry cleaning. It also helped designers get over any fur hang-ups with an education program. One of Saga's greatest successes has been to create fur that is lighter and thinner. It has made a fox-fur jacket that weighs less than a pound. And if there is one thing fashion people like, it's thin...
...wearing a black suit jacket, white shirt, black Kangol hat with red stripes walked up to her window at the bank and presented a note to her. The reporting person stated, "Excuse me?" The suspect then stated, "Calm down and just give me the 50s, 100s, and 20s, no dye pack, and I'll be out of here." This is also what the note read. There was no mention of weapon...
...Vitro Fertilization Institute of Fairfax, VA announced earlier this month that it has successfully sorted sperm by staining it with a fluorescent dye which helps differentiate male- and female-producing sperm...
...Virginia scientists, though, adapted a technique that has been used for more than a decade to select the sex of cows, horses and pigs. Working with U.S. Department of Agriculture scientist Lawrence Johnson, who invented the method, they stained sperm with a fluorescent dye that latches onto DNA. Measuring the glow of the sperm cells under laser light, they could gauge how much genetic material each one carried. As it happens, X chromosomes have about 2.8% more DNA than Ys. Once the sperm had been distinguished this way, an automated sorting machine separated the Xs from the Ys, and doctors...
...technique perfected by the not-for-profit Genetics & IVF Institute involves staining sperm cells with a DNA-sensitive fluorescent dye and then passing them single file through a laser beam. The cells are sorted based on the amount of light reflected by the fluorescent DNA. It's painstaking work -- sorting a single batch takes the better part of a day -- but the results speak for themselves: Of 14 pregnancies produced so far for couples who wanted a girl, 13 fetuses were female. Not entirely foolproof, but pretty close...
