A busbar current sensor assembly includes a busbar member that includes a first cavity and a second cavity. The second cavity is disposed opposite the first cavity. The busbar current sensor assembly also includes a first current sensor disposed in the first cavity such that the first cavity at least partially surrounds the first current sensor and a second current sensor disposed in the second cavity such that the second cavity at least partially surrounds the second current sensor.

Keyed column chromatography apparatus comprises a polymer body having a channel extending therethrough, means for coupling the column to insertion apparatus having complimentary coupling means, and keying means on the outer surface of the column. In addition, a collecting tube comprises a hollow body having one end having an aperture therethrough and having keying means on the outer surface of the tube. Further, a rack for receiving generally cylindrical bodies having complimentary keying means comprises a top surface and a plurality of legs sufficient to support the top surface. The kit comprising and facilitating the same method is included.

A self-contained swab unit comprises a cylindrical plastic tube having a foam rubber swab capping one end. The tube is closed at the opposite end by a heating and crimping process. A cleansing or sterilizing solution is loaded into the tube. The tube is sealed by a plug having a diameter slightly larger than the inside diameter of the cylinder, so that the solution is sealed away from the foam rubber swab when not in use. Squeezing the tube causes the plug to pivot in relation to the wall of the tube so that the seal is broken and liquid may saturate the swab. Releasing the squeeze pressure on the tube causes the plug to pivot back into a partial seal so that the amount of fluid used in swabbing can be controlled.

A two-piece telescoping cylinder made of a flexible plastic material forms a disposable container for a swab and a liquid culture medium. The upper piece serves as a handle for the swab and cooperates with the lower piece to form a sealed container for the swab and liquid. A generally conical plug having a base slightly larger than the inside diameter of the cylinder divides the lower piece into two compartments, sealing the liquid from the swab. When the telescoping parts are pushed together, the swab contacts the plug and pivots it in relation to the side walls of the tube so that the seal is broken and the liquid may saturate the swab or a cotton wad immediately above the swab.

A changeable-configuration geometric device including four right tetrahedrons hinged together with an equilateral tetrahedron in such a manner that the various tetrahedrons may be swung relative to one another to form an infinite number of different overall configurations for the device. One configuration which is producible is that of an equilateral cube, in which configuration the equilateral tetrahedron forms the central core of the cube.
