Title: Transgenic animal models for type ii diabetes mellitus
Inventor: SOELLER WALTER C
IPC: G01N33/50
Filed: 1996-04-24
Abstract: The generation of transgenic animal models for testing various treatments of Type II Diabetes Mellitus are described. The DNA construct allows pancreatic .beta. cell - specific expression of human islet associated polypeptide (IAPP) under the regulation of the rat insulin II promoter in both cell lines and transgenic animals. The DNA construct is introduced into animal embryos by microinjection as one or multiple copies or into established cell lines by electroporation. The transgenic animals develop amyloid plaque deposits in the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas, fasting hyperglycemia, glycouria and diabetic glomerulosclerosis at 3 to 5 months of age. The cell lines can be screened for treatments that inhibit expression of human IAPP; the transgenic animals can be screened for treatments that either enhance or inhibit the progression of this disease phenotype.

Title: Arbitration method for a communication network
Inventor: DEW LARRY A
IPC: G06F13/36
Filed: 1997-12-22
Abstract: A communications network is used to couple weld controllers and different operator interface units together, regardless of their data structures.  An arbitration system provides a means for one operator interface unit to communicate to a selected weld controller at a given period of time. The operator interface units have one of three modes of operation. These include database master, primary master, and secondary master. During setup of the communications network, the master devices are assigned a physical address that defines the its type and priority within the network.  The database master is the only device which can automatically download data to a weld controller. It has the highest priority as a network arbiter. The primary master will act as the network abitrator in the absence of a database master. A secondary master must listen for an access grant from the current network arbiter, before initiating a message packet on the network. When no database or primary device exists on a network, the secondary device with the highest priority, as defined by its address during startup, assumes the role of network arbitrator.

Patent CA-2229381-A1 (CA)
Inventor: UPTON JOHN D
IPC: G06F1/00
Filed: 1998-02-13
Abstract: A computer system employs a thermal sensor in the main CPU housing to detect operating temperature. If a preselected trip point is reached indicating that overheating may be about to occur, the system goes into an orderly shutdown mode. A standby mode uses a low-power service processor which continues to operate even when the main unit is shut down. The service processor has limited functions, including detecting temperature within the main housing, and communicating by a network with a system administrator unit and reporting on the temperature in the main housing, and on the operating status of the main unit. A mechanism is provided to prevent the main processor unit from beingunnecessarily shut down when the operating temperature is near but not beyond the trip point, as may occur due to variations in the power supply voltage and the voltage-dependence of the thermal sensor. This mechanism employs voltage stabilization of the supply for the thermal sensor when the computer is in its standard operating mode and the power supply for the main processor unit is running. Here the sensor is supplied from a precision voltage reference of a high degree of accuracy. However, when entering the standby mode, the main power supply is shut down, and so the thermal sensor is then operating from an auxiliary voltage source that is not stabilized. A simple isolating circuit allows one sensor to be used in both operating conditions, using one or the other of the power supplies. Since the trip point is much less important in the standby mode, there is no problem caused by the lack of precision in the voltage source.
Patent CA-2230696-A1 (CA)
Inventor: JAKOBSON JEROME T
IPC: E01C23/14
Filed: 1998-03-02
Abstract: A flexible fluid-filled circulation conduit is selectively and removably connectable to a portable hot water heating system. The conduit is configured and arranged so that prior to connection to the hot water heating system, the conduit carries its own fluid supply under pressure within the conduit for circulation through the hot water heating system. Upon removable connection of the fluid filled conduit to the hot water heating system, fluid from the conduit immediately circulates under pressure with fluid from the hot water heating system through both the conduit and hot water heating system. Upon selective disconnection of the conduit from the hot water heating system, fluid within the conduit is retained under pressure within the conduit and fluid continues to circulate through the hot water heating system but is prevented from circulating through the conduit. With this system, fluid need not be directly added or removed relative to the hot water heating system to accommodate adding or removing the conduit relative to the hot water heating system circulation loop. This system can be used in a method of thawing frozen ground or of providing temporary heat within a building.

Patent CA-2235344-A1 (CA)
Title: Method of contact printing on metal alloy-coated polymer films
Inventor: EVERHART DENNIS STEIN
IPC: B41M3/00
Filed: 1997-09-04
Abstract: The present invention comprises methods of contact printing of patterned, self-assembling monolayers of alkanethiolates, carboxylic acids, hydroxamic acids and phosphonic acids on thermoplastic films metallized with an alloy such as nickel/gold, the compositions produced thereby, and the use of these compositions. Patterned self-assembling monolayers allow for the controlled placement of fluids thereon which contain a chemically reactive indicator functionality. The optical sensing devices produced thereby when the film is exposed to an analyte and light, can produce optical diffraction patterns which differ depending on the reaction of the self-assembling monolayer with the analyte of interest. The light can be in the visible spectrum, and be either reflected from the film, or transmitted through it, and the analyte can be any compound reacting with the fluid on the self assembling monolayer. The present invention also provides a flexible support for a self assembling monolayer on a metal alloy.
