Inventor: EVERETT WILLIAM
IPC: C09K3/32
Filed: 2009-10-23
Abstract: L' installation comprend trois cuves de réaction (100, 200, 300) en série, chacune contenant une phase aqueuse et une population bactérienne spécifique. Elles permettent, successivement, de solubiliser la charge liquide à traiter par hydrolyse enzymatique, puis biodégrader l'effluent résultant par digestion biologique, et enfin réduire les composants bactériens résiduels par action biologique. Les cuves sont isolées entre elles par des filtres tangentiels (108, 208, 308) et des séparateurs centrifuges (212, 312) pour filtrer la biomasse des produits de réaction. Le résultat est un effluent liquide final (EFF/N) essentiellement non organique, la biomasse filtrée en aval constituant un déchet organique ultime (DU) de volume réduit.

Abstract: A feed gas comprising CO2, H2S and H2 is treated to produce an H2-enriched product and a CO2 product. The feed gas is separated by pressure swing adsorption to provide a stream of the H2-enriched product, and two streams of sour gas depleted in H2 and enriched in H2S and CO2 relative to the feed gas. One of the streams of sour gas is processed in an H2S to elemental sulfur conversion system, in which H2S in the sour gas is converted to elemental sulfur order to obtain a stream of sweetened gas, from which the CO2 product is formed. The other of said streams of sour gas is processed in an oxidation system, in which H2S in the sour gas is oxidized to SO x (SO2 and SO3), the SO2 from the oxidation effluent or sulfuric/sulfurous acid obtained therefrom being introduced into the H2S to elemental sulfur conversion system as a reagent.

Title: Immunodominant mycobacterium tuberculosis peptides from cell wall proteins for early diagnosis and immunization
Inventor: LAAL SUMAN
IPC: G01N33/569
Filed: 2009-04-20
Abstract: A number of peptide epitopes and fragments from three Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) cell wall proteins have been identified as early antigens that induce antibodies early during Mtb infection in humans. The proteins are Proline-Threonine Repetitive Protein (PTRP), PE-PGRS51, and LipC. These peptides, alone or in mixtures, or as parts of fusion polypeptides or peptide multimers, are useful as antigens for serological detection of early in infection by detecting the presence of early antibodies against these proteins, thereby permitting earlier diagnosis of Mtb infection than was heretofore possible by conventional means. The above peptides and other peptide-based compositions are also used as immunogens for inclusion in TB vaccines. Also provided are methods for early diagnosis of Mtb infection and for immunizing a subject to prevent or treat Mtb infections and tu-berculosis.

Title: Subglottic suctioning system
Inventor: CUEVAS BRIAN J
IPC: A61M1/00
Filed: 2010-06-25
Abstract: A subglottic suctioning system with a tracheal tube (10) having a ventilation lumen, a cuff inflation lumen (14), and a suction lumen (16) are disclosed which may help reduce the incidence of ventilator associated (or acquired) pneumonia. The suction lumen communicates with the space in the trachea above the cuff (22) where secretions accumulate. The suction lumen has a valve (36) on the proximal end for connection to a source of vacuum. The valve is adapted to interrupt the supply of vacuum to the suction lumen to allow for the introduction of a rinsing fluid in its place and to automatically re-establish the connection to the source of vacuum upon completion of rinsing. The rinsing fluid aids in maintaining an open suction lumen and may include medicaments and mucolytic agents to enhance or promote healing or to alter the properties of the mucus to make removal easier. The user may easily and repeatedly alternate suction and rinsing fluid through the suction lumen, i.e., the user may "pulse" the line to loosen, break up and remove secretions and deposits that may partially or completely block or clog the suction lumen.
