Patent CA-2808476-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LAJOIE STEPHANE
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2010-09-24
Abstract: The system and method allows finding candidates for job offers using a reward scheme, in which members of the public provide contact information on one or more potential candidates for available job offers. Considering that most employment opportunities are communicated by acquaintances, available job offers are presented as "wanted notices", with an attached reward to encourage members of the public to participate in an employee search for filling one or more available job positions. These participants become "third-party submitters" and only need to provide contact information required for the system to send an invitation message to the corresponding potential candidate. The potential candidate does not need to be registered or otherwise known by the system beforehand. Ultimately, when a candidate is hired by a hiring entity, the corresponding third-party submitter receives at least a portion of the associated reward.

Abstract: An automated slide scanning system is described. The system comprises an automated focusing unit that is simple and that provides a fine adjustment of a focusing tube without any backlash. The focusing unit comprises a block that is cut or fabricated in a pattern forming a head to support a focusing tube and at least one elongated and rigid arm projecting perpendicularly from the head. One end of the at least one arm is integrally joined to the head. The focusing unit further comprises an elongated, rigid, lever which is substantially parallel and spaced apart from the at least one arm. The lever is pivotally mounted to a hinge and has a first end that is linked to the head of the focusing unit and a second free end. The focusing unit further includes a drive mechanism with a roller coupled to a motor. The roller is eccentric roller and is in constant contact to the lever's second end. When the roller rotates it engages the lever which subsequently engages the at least one arm and thus produces a substantially vertical movement in both direction to the head of the focusing unit. The scanning system further comprises a scanning stage that supports the focusing unit and which provides a continuous movement in Y-direction (back and forward) of the scanning stage, and a scanning track that moves the slide holder continuously in one direction along the x-axis until the last slide in the slide holder is scanned. The scanning system of the present invention is suitable for automated screening or prescreening of samples.

Abstract: The present invention provides a simpler and more energy efficient process for the preparation of marine microalgae Chlorella fatty acid methyl ester (CME) from hydrolysate of deoiled cake of Jatropha (JOCH) and crude glycerol co-product stream (GL7and GL8) (WO2011/027353) along with seawater diluted with tap water ( 1 :2). A small part of the crude glycerol layer in case of JME is processed to recover glycerol for the purpose of glycerol washing and the otherwise problematic still bottom is utilized for microbial synthesis of PHAs and the rest is utilized for Microalgal conversion of JME byproducts into CME. The remaining part of the methanol- depleted glycerol layer is utilized, along with hydrolysate of the Jatropha deoiled cake(JOCH), for single-stage Microalgal production of lipids by a marine Microalgal isolate (Chlorella sp.) without the need for any other nutrients. Waste streams from the microalgal processes can be discharged directly into agricultural fields as biofertilizer or recycled back in the mass cultivation.
