Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé continu de polymérisation en phase gazeuse permettant de préparer des homopolymères et des copolymères d'éthylène et de propène, dans lequel de l'éthylène, du propène ou des mélanges contenant de l'éthylène ou du propène et des mono-.alpha.-oléfines en C¿3?-C¿8? sont polymérisées dans la zone de polymérisation d'un réacteur de polymérisation en phase gazeuse, à une température comprise entre 30 et 125 ·C pour une pression de 1 à 100 bars dans la phase gazeuse, dans un lit comprenant un polymère finement divisé et en présence d'un catalyseur.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système et des procédés permettant d'améliorer la résolution verticale de diagraphies RMN, fondés sur des procédés d'acquisition de données et sur des techniques de traitement de signaux ne nécessitant pas l'application de l'empilement de paires à alternance de phase (PAPS). Ce procédé est fondé sur la réduction du niveau de signaux cohérents externes à la formation, par évaluation de ces signaux puis, par extraction des évaluations des trains d'échos d'impulsions RMN sous-jacents. Une fois soustraites les composantes des signaux externes à la formation évalués, des procédés de traitement RMN classiques sont appliqués de manière à déduire des propriétés pétrophysiques de la formation en cours d'analyse. Dans un mode de réalisation privilégié, le procédé NOPAPS décrit dans cette invention est mis en oeuvre conjointement avec une séquence d'acquisition de données qui peut être utilisée pour augmenter un peu plus la vitesse de diagraphie de l'outil ou la résolution verticale des mesures.

Title: Glycosaminoglycan-polycation complex crosslinked by polyfunctional crosslinking agent and process for producing the same
Inventor: TANAKA JUNZO
IPC: A61P19/02
Filed: 2002-07-31
Abstract: In a conventional process for producing a glycosaminoglycan-polycation compl ex to be used in producing tissue regeneration matrixes for cartilage, etc., a crosslinking reaction is carried out in an alcohol or water. Therefore, it i s feared that an injectable crosslinked biological substance might exert an undesirable effect (cell death) on cells and tissues. Moreover, a polyion complex (a non-homogeneous precipitate) is formed in this case. A glycosaminoglycan-polycation complex is formed by crosslinking glycosaminoglycan and polycation under physiological conditions with the use of 0.3 to 3 mM of a crosslinking agent which has two or more electrophilic leaving groups (for example, succinimidyl group or its derivative) at the carboxyl end of polyethylene glycol. Since the synthesis can be carried out under physiological conditions, the crosslinking can be achieved by preliminarily mixing the cells.

Title: An improved continuous liquid stream blender
Inventor: PHALLEN IVER J
IPC: B01F25/60
Filed: 2004-05-10
Abstract: Continuous stream ratio blending of two or more liquids. Each stream flow is time synchronized to all others and turned on and off to dose precise ratios into a constant pressure streams combining chamber. Combined on-off flows constitute a net flow rate exceeding some maximum continuous flow demand for the blended liquids. Dosed streams are pumped from the streams combining chamber at a rate matching their inflow, then through a mixing element into a finished blend tank. Use of a constant pressure streams combining chamber feeding a mix pump allows decoupling of individual streams ratio dosing flows and pressures one from another and from the combined stream. Blended liquid is available on demand as a continuous stream from the level controlled finished blend tank. The level sensor automatically starts and stops blended flow into the tank. Streams flow can be stopped upon completion of any dose cycle.

Title: Protein sustaining undifferentiated stem cells as such
Inventor: NAKAUCHI HIROMITSU
IPC: C07K14/47
Filed: 2002-03-11
Abstract: It has been successfully achieved to sustain stem cells (for example, hematopoietic stem cells) while holding the undifferentiated state and pluripotency by providing a polypeptide having a WIF domain (for example, WIF-1) to the stem cells. This polypeptide preferably contains an EGF-like repeat too. It has been achieved by providing a polypeptide preferably having the WIF  domain together with a stem cell survival factor such as SCF. Thus, it becomes possible to easily provide a large amount of stem cells (for example, hematopoietic stem cells) containing functional precursor cells. It also becomes possible to more efficiently transfer a gene into the stem cells.  Because of being homogeneous and almost free from impurities, the stem cell composition can remarkably relieve the side effects (for example, infection) occurring in the conventional therapy with the use of hematopoietic stem cells.

Abstract: Transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs) are typically used within optical receiver modules to amplify weak photocurrents received from the photodetector, in the form of photodiode, or a PIN diode. Since TIAs are used to amplify weak photocurrents, noise in the resultant amplification of the weak photocurrent is typically a problem. However, TIAs must not only provide low noise amplification of weak photocurrents, but must also operate when a much higher optical power is received by the photodetector and hence a much higher photocurrent is provided to an input port of the TIA. Of course, with the higher photocurrent received from the photodetector the TIA must also exhibit acceptable bit error rate performance as with the lower photocurrents. An elevated front end TIA (EFTIA) is thus provided that offers low noise performance while providing a wide dynamic range, which overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art.
