Patent CA-2469959-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WILLIAMS L LLOYD
IPC: G06Q20/38
Filed: 2002-12-17
Abstract: Electronic call credits and call connections to be charged thereto are purchased by a customer for a recipient through the Internet (26) and sent via email to the recipient. The recipient requests a call by activating an icon (76) associated with the email. An application server (22) receives the request and sends a call request message via the Internet to a call control node (24) associated with a switched telephone network (25). The call control node initiates actions in the switched telephone network to set up a telephone communication between the recipient and a party to be called. A cost of the communication is deducted from a value of the electronic call credits.
Patent CA-2471706-A1 (CA)

IPC: C12N5/08
Filed: 2002-12-19
Abstract: L'invention concerne des chambres modulaires pour culture cellulaire, à volume adaptable, mais sans perte d'étanchéité ou de stérilité. Le principe consiste à régler ledit volume, c'est-à-dire le volume compris entre deux plaques enserrant un joint compressible et une butée sensiblement incompressible, au moyen d'un joint étanche entre les plaques, selon une pluralité de niveaux de compression. On peut pratiquer la culture cellulaire entre des plaques sensiblement parallèles et rigides, en ayant la possibilité d'utiliser un volume important pour l'ensemencement des cellules et de réduire le volume de rétention pour la perfusion, sans ouvrir ou démonter le système de quelque manière que ce soit et porter atteinte à l'intégrité de l'étanchéité et de la stérilité. Cette chambre de culture cellulaire, fermée, modulaire, à volume adaptable, peut donc être perfusée et utilisée pour la culture cellulaire (par exemple, hépatocytes), en offrant des niveaux élevés de fonction cellulaire dans les systèmes d'assistance d'organe (par exemple, foie), aux fins des applications suivantes: systèmes de production de cellules, ou de production de produits dérivés de cellules, du type protéines et virus, ou encore systèmes de traitement de liquides biologiques pour l'élimination de toxines, du type ammoniac, ou d'adjonction de produits de synthèse cellulaire, voire les deux à la fois.

Patent CA-2487712-A1 (CA)
Inventor: QUAY STEVEN C
IPC: A61K38/00
Filed: 2003-06-24
Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided that include a biologically active age nt and a permeabilizing agent effective to enhance mucosal delivery of the biologically active agent in a mammalian subject. The permeabilizing agent reversibly enhances mucosal epithelial paracellular transport, typically by modulating epithelial junctional structure and/or physiology at a mucosal epithelial surface in the subject. This effect typically involves inhibition by the permeabilizing agent of homotypic or heterotypic binding between epithelial membrane adhesive proteins of neighboring epithelial cells. Targe t proteins for this blockade of homotypic or heterotypic binding can be select ed from various related junctional adhesion molecules (JAMs), occludins, or claudins. The permeabilizing agent is typically a peptide or peptide analog or mimetic, often selected or derived from an extracellular domain of a mammali an JAM, occludin or claudin protein.

Title: Seat assembly with tunable tie bar
Inventor: BONK JEFFREY T
IPC: B60N2/23
Filed: 2003-10-31
Abstract: A seat assembly having a tunable tie bar is provided and includes a main pivot and a housing operably supporting the tie bar. The housing is fixedly attached to a seatback of the seat assembly and includes C-shaped members fixedly joined together to provide a space in which the tie bar is disposed. The tie bar is fixedly attached to the housing and is in engagement with the main pivot, whereby the tie bar reacts against the main pivot to provide the seatback with sufficient support. The tie bar serves to strengthen the housing and ultimately provide the seatback with sufficient strength to support an occupant and the accompanying seatbelt loads associated with a seat-mounted retractor assembly. The tie bar is tunable between different seating applications and as such, allows the housing to be used in various seating applications and does not require extensive design and tooling for each application.
