Patent EP-3959192-A2 (EP)
Inventor: RICHARDS ALAN K
IPC: C07C303/06
Filed: 2019-04-25
Abstract: Improved initiators, solvents, and processing equipment and methods are disclosed for improving the yields and efficiency of a manufacturing process which uses a radical chain reaction to convert methane (CH4), which is a gas under any normal conditions, into methane sulfonic acid (MSA), a liquid. MSA is useful and valuable in its own right, and it also can be processed to create desulfured fuels and other valuable chemicals. A preferred type of initiator combination has been identified, comprising at least two different peroxide sulfate compounds. One will act as a "primary" initiator for the chain reaction, while the other will act as a "chain-lengthening oxidant", which can eliminate chain-terminating species, such as sulfur Di-oxide, in the MSA-forming reactor. Integrated continuous-loop processing systems also are disclosed, including a first variant which uses a mixture of sulfuric acid and MSA as the solvent, and a second variant which completely avoids sulfuric acid and uses MSA only, as the solvent. Options are also disclosed which can avoid any need for distillation, to create reduced-cost "rough grades" of MSA with purity levels which will be entirely adequate for various types of uses in bulk.

Abstract: Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a defective mono-stranded DNA virus, endemic in human population (35-80%). Recurrent clonal AAV2 insertions are associated with the pathogenesis of rare human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) developed on normal liver. The aimed of the inventors was to characterize the natural history of AAV infection in the liver. Viral DNA was thus quantified in tumor and non-tumor liver tissues of 1461 patients. Presence of episomal form and viral mRNA expression were analyzed using a DNAse/TaqMan based assay and quantitative RT-PCR. In silico analyses using viral capture data explored viral variants and new clonal insertions. AAV DNA was detected in 21% of the patients equally distributed in 2 major viral subtypes: one similar to AAV2, the other hybrid between AAV2 and AAV13 sequences. Thus the inventors provided an integrated analysis of the wild type AAV infection in the liver with the identification of viral genotypes, molecular forms, helper virus relationship and viral integrations. These findings are important to understand wild type AAV biology and particularly relevant considering the large usage of AAV vector in liver-targeted gene therapy. Thus, the present invention relates to new adeno-associated virus (AAV) variants and uses thereof for gene therapy.

IPC: G06N20/00
Filed: 2020-04-30
Abstract: Disclosed is a machine-learning model-based chunker (the "Sequencer") that learns to predict the next element in a sequence and detects the boundary between sequences. At the end of a sequence, a declarative representation of the whole sequence is stored, together with its effect. The effect is measured as the difference between the system states at the end and at the start of the chunk. The Sequencer can be combined with a Planner that works with the Sequencer to recognize what plan a developing incoming sequence can be a part of and thus to predict the next element in that sequence. In embodiments where the effect of a plan is represented by a multi-dimensional vector, with different attentional weights placed on each dimension, the Planner calculates the distance between the desired state and the effects generated by individual plans, weighting its calculation by the attentional foci.

Abstract: Dilutable concentrates useful for hard surface cleaners with improved film/streak performance on high-energy surfaces are disclosed. The concentrates comprise a nonionic alkoxylated surfactant and a polyetheramine. A relatively minor proportion of a polyetheramine can resolve film/streak issues that characterize hard surface cleaners formulated with nonionic surfactants. The efficacy of polyetheramines for improving film/streak performance of hard surface cleaners formulated with nonionic alkoxylated surfactants far exceeds the benefits available from known improvements, such as the use of hydrotropes. Other inventive dilutable concentrates and hard surface cleaners comprise an amine-functional hydrophobe and an auxiliary surfactant. Still other dilutable concentrates or hard surface cleaners comprise a nonionic alkoxylated surfactant and lactic acid. An improved method for measuring film/streak properties of hard surface cleaners is also disclosed.
