Title: Improved receptor detection
Inventor: SINGH RAJENDRA
IPC: C12Q1/37
Filed: 2003-05-29
Abstract: Improved results are obtained using in an enzyme fragment complementation assay, as an enzyme donor a fragment of .beta.-galactosidase of from 36 to 50 amino acids joined to a ligand capable of binding to a receptor other than an immunoglobulin or fragment thereof. Conveniently, for enzyme assays, enzyme binding site inhibitors are conjugated to the enzyme donor, whereby binding of the enzyme to the binding site inhibitor results in a reduction in the turnover rate of .beta.-galactosidase in the presence of EA and a substrate capable of producing a detectable signal. Analogously, ligands for membrane receptors may be conjugated to the ED for measurement of membrane receptors.

Title: One sided styrofoam insulated concrete
Inventor: DOTZERT PAUL EDWIN
IPC: E04B2/86
Filed: 2005-05-05
Abstract: This invention relates to a improved way of building residential and commercial buildings. The main idea is a new way to attach Styrofoam to a solid cement wall.   The energy efficiency of this building system maybe one of the best available.  Three inches of Styrofoam blue SM is on the outside (exterior) of the concrete wall.  The thermal mass on the inside is maximized by the cement not being covered by insulation. The Styrofoam is placed inside regular cement forms before pouring. Plastic inserts hold the Styrofoam to the cement after curing. Rebar is placed vertically and horizontally forming 18" squares. The electrical is run through pvc pipe. The pvc is put into the forms before pouring. Electrical utility boxes are attached to the pvc pipe every 8'. After curing the cement is coated on the inside with Westroc 90 cement base. Finish is then put on with drywall compound. Dry wall compound is put directly onto cement after the westroc 90.   The plastic strips imbedded in the Styrofoam allow brick ties or siding to be put on the exterior. This system also allows stucco to be applied. The cement should cure for a month or more before plastering. This system maybe up to 2 to three times more energy efficient then conventional stick frame construction. It also should be less expensive than stick frame construction. The Styrofoam concrete system can be applied to residential or commercial building. Another great advantage is the walls are fire proof, tornado proof, earth quake proof, bullet proof, sound proof, and flood proof.

Title: Method and system for protecting cable television subscriber-specific information allowing limited subset access
Inventor: CHEN MICHAEL A
IPC: H04N7/173
Filed: 2005-12-06
Abstract: A television program ratings method and system includes transferring information associated with households from a cable provider to a ratings provider such that the ratings provider has access to information associated with sampled households and lacks access to information associated with non-sampled households. To this end, identity information and usage information associated with the households are respectively anonymized and encrypted. Knowledge of the identities of the sampled households enables the anonymized identity information and the encrypted usage information for the sampled households to be respectively de-anonymized and decrypted. The ratings provider knows which households are sampled households. As such, the ratings provider de-anonymizes and decrypts the information associated with the sampled households and then uses the de-anonymized and decrypted information to determine television program ratings. The cable provider anonymizes and encrypts the information for all households as the cable provider does not know which households are sampled households.
