Inventor: FISCHER TIMOTHY J
IPC: G01N33/92
Filed: 2001-06-08
Abstract: A method for diagnosing a condition of a patient involves the steps of (a) adding one or more reagents to a test sample from a patient, the test samples comprising at least part of a blood sample from the patient, in order to cause formation of a complex comprising at least one acute phase protein at at least one human lipoprotein, while causing substantially no fiber polymerization; (b) measuring the formation of the complex over time so as to derive a time-dependent measurement profile, and (c) determining a slope and/or total change in the time-dependent measurement profile, so as to diagnose a condition of the patient. A greater formation of the complex is correlated to increased probability of death of the patient.

Title: A method for extracting quantitative information relating to an influence on a cellular response
Inventor: THASTRUP OLE
IPC: C12Q1/48
Filed: 1998-04-07
Abstract: Cells are genetically modified to express a luminophore, e.g., a modified (F64L, S65T, Y66H) Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP,EGFP) coupled to a component of an intracellular signalling pathway such as a transcription factor, a cGMP- or cAMP-dependent protein kinase, a cyclin-, calmodulin- or phospholipid-dependent or mitogen-activated serine/threonin protein kinase, a tyrosine protein kinase, or a protein phosphatase (e.g. PKA, PKC, Erk, Smad, VASP, actin, p38, Jnk1, PKG, IkappB, CDK2, Grk5, Zap70. p85, protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1C, stat5, NFAT, NFkappaB, RhoA, PKB). An influence modulates the intracellular signaling pathway in such a way that the luminophore is being redistributed or translocated with the component in living cells in a manner experimentally determined to be correlated to the degree of influence. Measurement of redistribution is performed by recording of light intensity, fluorescense lifetime, polarization, wavelength shift, resonance energy transfer, or other properties by an apparatus consisting of e.g. a fluorescence microscope and a CCD camera. Data stored as digital images are processed to numbers representing the degree of redistribution. The method can be used as a screening program for identifying a compound that modulates a component and is capable of treating a disease related to the function of the component.

Title: Internal references for use in analyte-receptor assays
Inventor: VALKIRS GUNARS EDWARD
IPC: G01N33/543
Filed: 1987-03-20
Abstract: A method is disclosed for providing internal reference for use in an analyte-receptor assay, for the determination of a target analyte in a sample. The assay uses a signal producing system and an analyte receptor capable of binding the target analyte at a discrete test zone on a solid phase, in an amount directly proportional to the amount of target analyte in the sample. The method comprises binding a reference receptor, selected to bind with an analyte receptor conjugate capable of complexation with the target analyte, at a discrete reference zone on a solid phase. The reference receptor is selected such that the rates of binding of the analyte receptor conjugate to the reference receptor and to the target analyte are directly proportional to the amounts of reference receptor at the reference zone and target analyte bound at the test zone on the solid phase, and the rate constants are substantially equivalent.
Patent AU-7051400-A (AU)
Title: Security chip architecture and implementations for cryptography acceleration
Inventor: KRISHNA SURESH
IPC: G06F9/38
Filed: 2000-07-07
Abstract: An architecture and a method for cryptography acceleration is disclosed that allows significant performance improvements without the use of external memory. Specifically, the chip architecture enables "cell-based" processing of random-length IP packets. The IP packets, which may be of variable and unknown size, are split into fixed size "cells." The fixed-size cells are then processed and reassembled into packets. The cell-based packet processing architeture of the present invention allows the implementation of a processing pipeline that has known processing throughput and timing characteristics, thus making it possible to fetch and process the cells in a predictable time frame. The architecture is scalable and is also independent of the type of cryptography performed. The cells may be fetched ahead of time (pre-fetched) and the pipeline may be staged in such a manner that attached (local) memory is not required to store packet or control parameters.

Patent AU-7647591-A (AU)
Title: Two and three wire utility data communications system
IPC: H04L69/14
Filed: 1991-05-13
Abstract: A two wire/three wire utility data communications system for remotely reading utility meter registers. In the two wire version, a hand-held reading unit is inductively coupled over two wires via a port located remotely from a meter register. Alternatively, a meter interface unit (MIU) may be connected directly to the register via three wires. Each register includes one or more wheel position encoders. An AC interrogation signal is applied by the reading unit to encoder circuitry at the meter which powers the circuitry and causes the position of each encoder wheel to be read. In the two wire mode, register display information (e.g. the current meter reading) is transmitted back to the reading unit by varying the load (impedance) presented by the register side of the circuit. This causes a corresponding variation of the amount of current drawn from the reading unit. The current-modulated signal is decoded by the reading unit and converted into a register reading. The system can also operate in a three wire mode and read older fourteen wire encoded registers. Other features include remote programmability of register characteristics, the ability to interrogate multiple registers which share a common data bus, verification of encoder wheel positions before accepting a reading, real-time flow rate/leak detection, pulse output, and the capability of reading compound meters (i.e. meters having two registers to separately measure high/low flow rates). <IMAGE>

Patent AU-8074201-A (AU)
Title: Second order complementary global positioning system/inertial navigation system blending filter
Inventor: MILLER RONALD J
IPC: B64D45/00
Filed: 2001-07-24
Abstract: A second-order filter that blends accurate position information from a one source, and velocity information from another source, both suitably scaled, in a second-order complementary filter. The filter is arranged such that an internal integrator maintains a value that represents the difference in the rate of change of the accurate position information, and the velocity input of the other source. This velocity difference is applied to another integrator outside the filter, whose initial condition is the position error between the two sources to the second order filter. The output of this latter integrator is a correction signal that grows at a rate equal and opposite to the rate of error build-up of position data from the source whose velocity is used in the second order filter. This correction signal is summed with the original position signal. In addition, the output of the second order filter may be used as a highly accurate position signal.
