Title: Modulators of amyloid aggregation
Inventor: MOLINEAUX SUSAN
IPC: A61K38/17
Filed: 1996-03-14
Abstract: Compounds that modulate the aggregation of amyloidogenic proteins or peptides are disclosed. The modulators of the invention can promote amyloid aggregation or, more preferably, can inhibit natural amyloid aggregation. In a preferred embodiment, the compounds modulate the aggregation of natural .beta.-amyloid peptides (.beta.-AP). In a preferred embodiment, the .beta.-amyloid modulator compounds of the invention are comprised of an A.beta. aggregation core domain and a modifying group coupled thereto such that the compound alters the aggregation or inhibits the neurotoxicity of natural .beta.-amyloid peptides when contacted with the peptides. Furthermore, the modulators are capable of altering natural .beta.-AP aggregation when the natural .beta.-APs are in a molar excess amount relative to the modulators. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of the invention, and diagnostic and treatment methods for amyloidogenic diseases using the compounds of the invention, are also disclosed.

IPC: A63B67/14
Filed: 2004-01-14
Abstract: A curling broom is provided having a main shaft and at least one telescoping shaft mounted on the main shaft for relative sliding movement therebetween. A broom head mounts an end of one of the shafts. A stop mechanism permits sliding movement of said at least one telescoping shaft in relation to the main shaft to be selectively restricted for retaining the shafts in an extended position at one of various selected lengths in use or in a retracted position for convenient storage. For certain persons depending upon sweeping style, adjustment of an overall length of the handle by use of telescoping shafts assists in increasing sweeping efficiency. Connecting the telescoping shaft with the main shaft in a sliding telescoping manner ensures proper strength of the handle in use due to the overlapping configuration upon which the shafts become coupled.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for modelling degradation of hydrocarbons trapped in an oil deposit, or trapped by action of the bacterial population in a subjacent water zone. On the basis of data concerning the oil reservoir examined, concerning the shape and height of the reservoir, the physical characteristics of the porous environment, the thickness of the transition zone between the hydrocarbons and the water, the composition of the hydrocarbons, the flux of electron acceptors coming into the reservoir and data on the bacterial population in the water zone, a modelling is performed by discretizing the deposit by a meshing whereof the height of each mesh is the thickness of the transition zone, and the variation on the height of the deposit, of the proportion of heavy hydrocarbon fractions under the effect of biodegradation is determined by iterative adjustment within each mesh of the bacterial population to the amount of available hydrocarbons, to the available porous space, to the amount of electron acceptors present in the reservoir and the degradation capacities of said population. The invention is useful for determining the composition of oils in a deposit and in particular for locating the heaviest fractions.

Abstract: A coal syngas or other syngas fired power plant is provided with no atmospheric emissions. Coal or other starter fuel is gasified within a gasifier which also receives oxygen and steam therein. The oxygen is provided from an air separator. Syngas produced within the gasifier is combusted within a gas generator along with oxygen from the air separator. Water is also introduced into the gas generator to control the temperature of combustion of the syngas with the oxygen. Products of combustion including steam and carbon dioxide are produced within the gas generator. The combustion products are expanded through a turbine for power output and then separated, such as within a condenser. Water discharged from the condenser is at least partially recirculated back to the gasifier and the gas generator. Carbon dioxide from the separator is compressed for capture without release into the atmosphere.

Title: Respirator assembly
Inventor: BRIDGES PETER CLIVE
IPC: A62B18/04
Filed: 2003-04-25
Abstract: A respirator assemby e.g. for NBC protection is formed from two separate sub-assemblies (1 and 2). The first sub-assembly (1) comprises a flexible hood (3) (or other suitable headgear), a rigid mounting ring (4) and a peripheral face seal (6). The second sub-assembly (2) comprises a face plate (7) with lens (8), oronasal mask (10) and inlet and outlet valves (15, 16), and is demountably attachable to the ring (4). The first sub-assembly can be worn on its own with the user breathing ambient air through the open front, the second sub-assembly being added if and when a hazard is encountered. The positioning of the face seal (6) in the first sub-assembly means that a comfortable and reliable fit can be ensured when that sub-assembly is donned prior to a mission, but the user is relieved of the physiological burden of wearing the complete respirator unless and until protection is required.
