The invention relates to a method for the verification of the presence and proper orientation of a component on a printed circuit board. The board has a plurality of areas for receiving a component respectively. Each area is marked in the center thereof with a first marker. Adjacent each area, and indicative of the polarity of the component, a second marker is marked on the board. The presence or absence of a component can be evaluated by inspecting the board after it has been populated and determining whether any of the first markers appear, indicating that a component is missing. Verification of the polarity of a component is done by placing a marker on a portion of a component required to be installed in a predetermined position indicative of polarity. Inspection of the board once it has been populated will determine if the component is in the proper orientation by verifying if the second marker and the marker on the component are in alignment. Preferably, the first marker and the second marker are of different colours, and are preferably UV compatible layers. Additionally, the method of the invention, when applied between the leads of a multi-legged component or between discrete components, such as by the etching of additional portions of the solder mask or by adding an additional layer, will produce a shadow on the reflective surface, thereby identifying a short at that location.

The invention relates to a method for the electrochemical detection of sequence-specific nucleic acid oligomer hybridization events. To this end single DNA / RNA / PNA oligomer strands which at one end are covalently joined to a support surface and at the other, free end, covalently linked to a redox pair, are used as hybridization matrix (probe). As a result of treatment with the oligonucleotide solution (target) to be examined, the electric communication between the conductive support surface and the redox pair bridged by the single-strand oligonucleotide, which communication initially is either absent or very weak, is modified. In case of hybridization, the electric communication between the support surface and the redox pair, which is now bridged by a hybridized double-strand oligonucleotide, is increased. This permits the detection of a hybridization event by electrochemical methods such as cyclic voltametry, amperometry or conductivity measurement.

A new method of electrophoretic nanotube deposition is proposed wherein individual nanotubes are placed on metal electrodes which have their length significantly exceeding their width, while the nanotube length is chosen to be close to that of the metal electrode.

This method offers opportunity to produce oriented arrays of individual nanotubes, which opens up a new technique for fabrication and mass production of nanotube-based devices and circuits. Several such devices are considered. These are MESFET- and MOSFET-like transistors and CMOS-like voltage inverter.
