Title: Thermo-kinetic compressor
Inventor: HAIUN JOSEPH
IPC: F04F5/46
Filed: 2001-01-25
Abstract: A device for compressing gas using thermal energy. In a subsonic embodiment the heat gas passes through a convergent pipe C 1 where it is provided with operating velocity, a convergent pipe C 2 where it is simultaneously maintained at high speed and cooled by evaporation of liquid sprayed by nozzles R with adjustable position distributed in C 2. In a supersonic embodiment, the gas reaches sonic velocity at the throat of C 2 and supersonic velocity in a divergent DG, then compressed in a convergent CG 1 and simultaneously cooled by evaporation of sprayed liquid. In both embodiments, the gas is finally compressed in a subsonic divergent DG 1. Pipes with variable geometry enable to modify the cross-sections of the throats of the device. The device is essentially designed for thermoelectric power stations.

Title: Detection and amplification of rna using target-mediated ligation of dna by rna ligase
Inventor: FARUQI A FAWAD
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2001-04-12
Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for detection of nucleic acids, amplification of nucleic acids, or both, involving ligation by T4 RNA ligase of DNA strands hybridized to an RNA strand. These techniques are particularly useful for th e detection of RNA sequences and for amplification of nucleic acids from, or dependent on, RNA sequences. It has been discovered that T4 RNA ligase can efficiently ligate DNA ends of nucleic acid strands hybridized to an RNA strand. In particular, this ligation is more efficient than the same ligatio n carried out with T4 DNA ligase. Thus, techniques involving ligation of DNA ends of nucleic acid strands hybridized to RNA can be performed more efficiently by using T4 RNA ligase. Many known ligation-based detection and amplification techniques are improved through the use of T4 RNA ligase actin g on DNA strands or ends. Such techniques include ligase chain reaction (LCR),  ligation combined with reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR), ligation-mediated polymerase chain reaction (LMPCR), polymerase chain reaction/ligation detection reaction (PCR/LDR), ligation-dependent polymeras e chain reaction (LD-PCR), oligonucleotide ligation assay (OLA), ligation-duri ng- amplification (LDA), ligation of padlock probes, open circle probes, and oth er circularizable probes, and iterative gap ligation (IGL).

Patent CA-2437098-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STRAND CARL OLAF
IPC: F03D3/04
Filed: 2003-07-08
Abstract: This invention is a new machine and process for generating electricity from the naturally occurring wind. Unlike other wind machines that face into the wind, this machine operates vertically, with the blades turning horizontally to the earth's surface.     This machine does not have to turn to face the incoming winds to make it turn. Instead, the vertical blades are surrounded 360° by vertical fins.  These fins are adjustable and are shaped to create a venturi effect as the wind passes by therm on the way to the inner turbine blades. The venturi effect speeds up the natural wind to give it more power when it hits the blades. Since these fins direct the angle of the wind, the natural wind can blow from any direction and the turbine blades will always operate at their maximum speed, based upon the venturi effect and the natural wind speed.  The wind turbine turns a generator which creates electricity.
