Title: Rouleau automatique a toile/ roll matic
Inventor: NADEAU ALAIN
IPC: B60J7/08
Filed: 2003-04-28
Abstract: Dans un outils qui sert à rouler la toile qui s'appose sur la partie supérieure d'une boite ou d'un contenant qui se dispose sur la partie arrière d'un camion (camion à sable) ou d'une semi remorque tirée par un tracteur de remorque dont l'objet est de transporter du sable ou autres produits, on sait que la toile qui a pour but de couvrir le chargement afin d'évtier qu'une partie de celle-ci tombe sur la route ou ailleurs lors de son transport se pose grâce à l'énergie manuelle, électrique ou à air et se veut fixe, sans possibilité de réinstallation usuelle sur tout autre produit. Dans la présente invention, l'avantage du produit confectionné est qu'il est détachable et peut ainsi être installé tant sur le camion « à sable » que la semi- remorque. Donc, un seul achat peut être fait alors qu'en ce moment, un appareil est dédié uniquement à un seul véhicule. De plus, l'invention utilise un système à engrenage double (deux ensembles d e deux (2) au lieu d'un seul ce qui augmente significativement la puissance de l'appareil, le rendant ainsi plus efficace que l'utilisation manuelle, électrique ou encore les systèmes à pression d'air sur le marché.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des souris transgéniques à déficience de récepteur 2 du facteur de libération de la corticotropine (CRFR2). Les souris présentant une déficience en CRFR1 font preuve d'un comportement de type anxieux diminué et d'une réponse au stress diminuée. Par contraste, les souris présentant une mutation de CRFR2 nulle sont hypersensibles au stress et font preuve d'un comportement de type anxieux accru. Ces souris sont utiles pour étudier l'anxiété, la dépression, et la physiologie de l'axe hypothalamo-hypophyso-surrénalien. Les souris présentant une mutation de CRFR2 nulle, présentent également une angiogénèse accrue dans tous les tissus examinés. On peut ainsi utiliser des antagonistes de CRFR2 pour stimuler l'angiogénèse dans le traitement de troubles divers. Par contraste, on peut utiliser des antagonistes de CRFR2 pour inhiber l'angiogénèse. On a observé qu'une combinaison d'urocortine et de bFGF (facteur de croissance basique des fibroblastes) stimulait la pousse rapide des cheveux.

Abstract: A process for producing a yeast activator which comprises immersing barley, malt or malt root in an acid containing phosphoric acid, etc., then eliminating the solid residue to thereby give a supernatant, neutralizing the supernatant by adding a precipitation accelerator such as calcium chloride, and separating the solid precipitate formed by the neutralization to give a solid yeast activator. In this case, barely and the like contain little moisture and thus can be easily stored and handled. Moreover, barley and the like contain little lipids and thus no procedure for eliminating lipids, etc.  is needed. Thus, yeasts can be fully activated without worsening the qualities of fermented products such as beer.

Title: A method and system of calibrating air flow in a respirator system
Inventor: COOK DAVID
IPC: A62B17/04
Filed: 2001-07-02
Abstract: A method and apparatus for calibrating the air flow in a respirator system is provided. The method provides for the establishment of control set points in a true calibration protocol through the simple triggering of the microprocessor of a controller. When the trigger is initiated, the microprocessor engages and provides the logic for the calibration cycle. The calibration cycle proceeds until a second trigger terminates the process and establishes the control set points. The calibration sequence of the method relies only on an initiation and termination trigger that is facilitated by components integral to the apparatus.

Abstract: Abuse-resistant, controlled release opioid tablets in combination containing an opioid antagonist such as naloxone at a level above that needed to suppre ss the euphoric effect of the opioid, if the combination were crushed to break the controlled release properties causing the opioid and opioid antagonist t o be released as a immediate release product as a single dose. The controlled release nature of the table prevents the accumulation of orally effective amounts of opioid antagonist when taken normally. The opioid antagonist is contained in a controlled-release matrix and released, over time, with the opioid.

Abstract: The sensitivity of regions of genomic DNA from chromatin to DNA-modifying agents are quantitated using real time PCR with careful use of reference regions and standard curves for improved accuracy over previous methods. A wide variety of DNA modifying agents are used to modify DNA, including single strand breakers, which allows analysis of a wider variety of DNA structures with greater precision than was previously possible. Methods also are provided that allow fine detailed analysis of hypersensitive DNA regions from as little as 100 cells. These methods also potentiate the investigation of more fine details of chromatin fiber folding and nucleosome-nucleosome contact.

Filed: 2002-07-22
Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating court calendars. A court date server (108) is coupled to a database (104) of court rules for generation of court dates (116). A user (112) accesses the court date server via a communication s network and submits event and jurisdiction data to court date server (108). The court date server (108) uses the event data and the jurisdiction data to generate a court calendar of event dates that is transmitted to the user. In one embodiment of a court date server, the court date server is coupled to a user database (106). The court date server stores the court calendar in the user database for later retrieval and use by the user (112). In addition, th e court date server uses the stored court calendar to generate court date reminder that are sent to the user and to send notifications to the user whe n court rules are modified that affect the user's already calculated court dates. A Date Calculation Engine (DCE) is coupled to a court date server for generation of the court dates. The court rule database includes formulas written in a Date Calculation Scripting Language (DCSL) for calculating the court dates. The court rules further include instructions for generating a Jurisdiction Selection Expert (JSE) and an Event Selection Expert (ESE) that enable a user to quickly select a jurisdiction and an event using hierarchal data structures. The DCE is combined with other software components to build a complete court date server system (100).

Title: A system and method for uniaxial compression of an article, such as a three-dimensionally printed dosage form
Inventor: MATERNA PETER A
IPC: B29C67/00
Filed: 2002-10-29
Abstract: A uniaxially compressed dosage form manufactured by three-dimensional printi ng that preserves the predetermined internal architecture of the dosage form while producing an improved surface finish. The compression compacts the dosage form, eliminating at least some of the void space that remains at the end of conventional three-dimensional printing. Surface finish obtained as a result of the uniaxial compression process can be essentially equal to that obtained from conventional tablet pressing. Additionally, the internal structure or spatial variation of composition of the dosage form is preserve d during the pressing operation, with geometric shrinkage occurring mostly in the direction of the axis of pressing. Further, as a result of compression, a greater quantity of API can be packed into a given final volume of dosage fo rm.
