Title: Transgenic fish in the treatment of diabetes
Inventor: WRIGHT JAMES R JR
IPC: C12N5/00
Filed: 1996-03-22
Abstract: This invention relates to transgenic fish containing a humanized insulin gene which has been altered to secrete human insulin and its use in the treatment of diabetes. In the transgenic fish of the present invention, the fish insulin gene has been modified to code for human insulin gene while leaving the regulatory sequences of fish insulin gene intact. Islet transplantation may provide the meticulous glycemia control required in the treatment of diabetes. The islet tissue of the present invention offers an inexpensive and a nearly unlimited supply of human insulin-producing tissue and therefore, may be useful in the treatment of diabetes. In this regard, an improved method of mass isolation of islet tissue is provided by the present invention. The present invention also provides the use of the humanized insulin gene to promote growth in fish.

Abstract: In a multiuser receiver for use in a Code
Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system to produce first
through N-th demodulated signals for N-th users in
response to an input signal where N is an integer not
smaller than unity, the receiver has first through M-th
stages, where M is an integer not smaller than unity. In
each stage, first through N-th interference cancellation
units are included to form the first through the N-th
users. Each interference cancellation unit is supplied
with a cancellation error signal obtained from a
previous interference cancellation to produce an
interference replica signal and a spread signal concerned
with a difference between the interference replica signal
and a previous interference replica signal. An n-th
interference replica signal is successively sent to an
n-th user of the following stages to be demodulated into
an n-th demodulated signal which is received by an n-th

Abstract: In a process of controlling the heating and evaporation process of wort during the production of beer, the wort (3) is held in a kettle with heater (2) which discharges energy. The heat discharged is regulated by regular comparison of one measuring parameter with another target measuring parameter. The novelty is that: (a) the parameter constantly measured is the liquid level in the wort kettle (1), and that it is registered either continually or intermittently; (b) the level registered in the kettle (1) is compared with a target value, and the difference used to calculate and regulate any change required in the heat discharged (2), and (c) the level of wort is registered using a manometer (6) linked to the control system (7). Also claimed is a suitable assembly.

Abstract: A dielectric laminated filter has a first dielectric
laminated block including a first strip line electrode and a
second dielectric laminated block including a second strip line
electrode and a coupling element, wherein the first and the
second dielectric laminated blocks are laminated via a first
shield electrode 11 and wherein the first and the second strip
lines are connected via a third strip line. This configuration
allows the unwanted electromagnetic coupling between a
resonator and the coupling element to be neglected, and uses
the third strip line electrode to form the first and the second
strip line electrodes so that they extend across different
layers, thereby enabling the size of the resonator to be reduced.
In addition, since the third strip line electrode serves to
adjust the filter characteristics, a small high-performance
dielectric laminated filter that can be designed easily can
be provided.

Abstract: A compact loop four-wave mixing phase conjugator that can be used in practical optical applications comprises a reflective nonlinear cell (12), relay optics (2, 4, 6, 8), an optical gain medium (26), and an optical diode (24) that together form a unidirectional ring laser resonator. In operation, a signal beam (ε 1 ) is directed to the nonlinear cell (12), where it passes through a nonlinear medium (14) contained within the cell and is reflected out of the cell as loop beam (ε 2 ). The relay optics direct loop beam (ε 2 ) through the optical diode (24), optical gain medium (38), and back to the nonlinear cell (12), where it intersects and optically interferes with the signal beam (ε 1 ) to form a refractive index grating (22) in the nonlinear medium (14). The optical diode (24) and gain medium (38) are positioned in the loop so that an oscillation beam (ε 3 ) builds up from optical noise in the resonator and oscillates in a direction counter to the propagation direction of loop beam (ε 2 ). A portion of oscillation beam (ε 3 ) is transmitted by the refractive index grating, reflects off the reflective portion (16) of the nonlinear cell (12) and emerges from the cell as phase conjugate output beam (ε 4 ).

Abstract: An ink containment and dispensing device for an ink-jet
printer is provided with a main reservoir in the form
of a flexible pouch, which is typically maintained at
ambient pressure. The main reservoir is coupled to a
variable volume chamber via a one-way valve which allows
the flow of ink from the reservoir to the chamber and
prevents the flow of ink from the chamber to the
reservoir. The chamber is coupled to a fluid outlet,
which is normally closed to prevent the flow of outward
ink. However, when the ink supply is installed in a
printer, the fluid outlet establishes a fluid connection
between the chamber and the printer. The chamber is part
of a pump provided with the ink supply that can be
actuated to supply ink from the reservoir to the printer.
The pump has a linearly acting pumping member and a
flexible diaphragm that overlies the pumping member, the
diaphragm being impervious to the transmission of oxygen
and moisture therethrough to prevent degradation of the
ink within the chamber.
