Patent CA-2177215-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LOSTRACCO GREGORY
IPC: C09J5/06
Filed: 1996-05-23
Abstract: An  optical fiber pack (42) having layers (52) of  optical  fiber (22)  is  formed on a bobbin (32) using  an ultraviolet-curable adhesive.  A layer (50) of  a  UV-curable adhesive is deposited, and a length of  the  optical fiber  (52) is wound over the layer (50)  of  ultraviolet-curable  adhesive.  Ultraviolet radiation   is   directed   at   the  layer  (50)  of ultraviolet-curable  adhesive  through the layer (52) of  optical  fiber  wound  over  the  layer  (50)  of adhesive,  to cure the adhesive.  The approach can be used,  for  example,  to  apply  adhesive  to  entire layers  of  the optical fiber, or to tack the ends of the optical fiber layers into place.

Abstract: The Brassica ALS3 promoter is operably linked to a foreign structural gene to provide high level, and generally constitutive or tissue general expression of the structural gene in transformed plants. The Brassica ALS3 promoter exhibits a non-tissue-preferred mode of expression at a level comparable to, and in some cases higher than, the widely used CaMV 35S promoter. Accordingly, DNA constructs comprising the Brassica ALS3 promoter operably linked to any number of different gene coding regions can be used for constitutive and tissue-general expression of the gene in transformed plants. The Brassica ALS3 promoter is used to direct expression of agronomically important genes and selectable marker genes.
