Title: Measurement of speed and/or length.
Inventor: EVERETT JONATHAN RICHARD
IPC: G01P3/68
Filed: 1981-06-09
Abstract: Method and apparatus for determining both relative speed between two bodies and length measurement of linearly moving material (21), particularly of moving strip or sheet material. A pair of non contacting detectors in a sensing head (11) derive two time sequences of signals characteristic of physical variations of material passing through two locations spaced apart (d) in direction of movement. The time delay between the two sequences of signals for which the two sequences most closely match one another is determined by a correlation unit (12) as a measure of time for material to travel between the two said locations to provide speed determination on a speed display unit (14). Length determination is made by determining instantaneous material speed values (by above-mentioned method) throughout a time interval during which the material passes the detectors and integrating these speed values over the time interval to obtain the length of material.

Title: Composition to improve survival of biological materials
IPC: C12N5/073
Filed: 1991-01-17
Abstract: The present invention relates to aqueous compositions of substances, such as organic molecules, which are useful to protect and preserve viable plant or animal cell membrane and tissue exposed to hypothermal and hyperthermal temperatures or nonphysiological chemical conditions, and to modify the freezing process of liquids in biological plant or animal cells or tissue. More specifically, the present invention relates to the use of antifreeze polypeptide or antifreeze glycopeptide which is derived, for example, from the fluid or serum of Artic and Antarctic fish. Preferred antifreeze compounds are related to those polypeptides having multiple alanine-alanine-threonine- or alanine-alanine-alanine- segments. In some embodiments, a pendant sugar group is covalently attached to each threonine moiety. An aqueous solution of the peptide or glycopeptide is contacted with cells ova, sperm, oocytes, embryos, tissue, an organ, or a whole living plant or animal. The cells, tissue, organ or plant or animal is then carefully cooled and/or frozen at 0 C or below (in some cases to -196 C or to 4 K) and held at the low freezing (or vitrification) temperatures. The ice forms, if at all primarily along the c-axis with the result that cell membranes are not disrupted and the cells are not dehydrated. The cells, tissue, whole plant or organ or animal are carefully thawed, and all are found to be viable. The preserved organs are particularly useful transplant organs for a human being.
