Title: Sensitive immunochromatographic assay
Inventor: FONG WHALLEY K
IPC: G01N33/18
Filed: 2003-04-10
Abstract: Methods for quantitatively measuring the amount of an analyte of interest in a fluid sample, and kits useful in the methods, are disclosed. The methods involve providing a solid phase apparatus comprising a membrane having an application point, a sample capture zone, and a control capture zone, where the sample capture region is between the contact region and the control capture zone; and providing a sample collection apparatus comprising a population of analyte binding particles or a population of analyte coated particles. In the assays, a fluid sample is introduced into the sample collection apparatus, and the resultant mixture is applied to the applicatio n point of the membrane. The fluid allows transport components of the assay by capillary action to and through the sample capture zone and subsequently to and through the control capture zone. The amount of analyte in the fluid sample is related (e.g., either directly or inversely) to a corrected partic le amount, which can be determined, for example, as a ratio of the amount of particles in the sample capture zone and the amount of particles in the control capture zone.

Patent CA-2482371-A1 (CA)
Title: Fluid filter assembly
Inventor: STANHOPE KENT C
IPC: B01D27/00
Filed: 2004-09-23
Abstract: A filter assembly has a housing open at one end, with an annular filter media/core assembly disposed in the housing. An end plate having at least two inlet openings and an outlet opening is disposed in the open end of the housing. The end plate is affixed to a lid which is secured to the end of the housing.  A combination valve is retained between the filter media/core assembly and the end plate. The combination valve has a first portion that cooperates with the first inlet opening in the end plate and a second portion cooperating with the second inlet opening. In use fluid will pass through the first inlet opening, the filter media/core assembly and be discharged from the housing through the outlet opening. When the filter media begins to clog, pressure will build and upon attainment of a predetermined pressure the second portion will open the second inlet opening and fluid flow can pass through the second inlet opening to the outlet opening, for discharge from the filter assembly and return to the engine, thereby bypassing the filter media. A spring is disposed between the end of the filter media remote from the end plate and the housing for biasing the filter media/core assembly toward the end plate to retain the combination valve in place.

Title: Simple data control
Inventor: BALA SOHAIB I
IPC: G06F12/14
Filed: 2004-12-07
Abstract: Currently, most personal computers are not strategically using the hard disk layout itself to increase system security. Not only is the structuring and placement of files or directories unorganized and cluttered, critical system files are often mixed with non-critical files within the same directory. The average personal computer system can greatly benefit by implementing a clear, categorized, and concise file organization system which dynamically controls read and write accesses. A common security concern is system, application files or registry values that are altered for malicious purposes, or are disfigured by a viral infection.     The idea is simple. Besides using security determined by user privileges, a personal computer can increase overall system security by creating various sub-partitions within a main partition and decisively controlling the read and write accesses for these sub-partitions.

Abstract: The invention provides a slicing and conveying system (10) that includes a slicing blade (33) that cuts slices from a loaf (32), and an output conveyor (31) located below the slicing blade (33) for receiving the slices in a draf t. A control system (62) automatically adjusts a lateral movement of the output conveyor (31) to form a laterally shingled draft of a consistent width in response to a sensed lateral dimension of the loaf (32) being sliced. The control system includes a displacement sensor (70) carried by a laterally adjustable guide assembly adjacent to the slicing blade (33). The displaceme nt sensor (70) is signal-connected to a control (62). The control is signal- connected to the output conveyor (31) to control the lateral movement of the output conveyor according to the lateral dimension of the loaf (32) sensed b y the displacement sensor (70). As an additional aspect, the slices can be shingled in the longitudinal direction to form a two dimensional footprint. A length sensor (162) can sense the length of the shingled draft and send a feedback signal to the control (62) to make adjustments to the longitudinal movement of the output conveyor (31) to adjust the degree of longitudinal shingling.

Ce fil peut être pourvu d'un canal d'insertion de stylet (40) qui s'étend d'une section légèrement incurvée ou sensiblement droite (30) jusque dans la section très incurvée (71) du fil (150). Puisqu'il est souhaitable que le fil présente une grande élasticité dans le cadre d'applications de stimulation cochléaire, cette élasticité est non seulement contrôlée par le cône à l'extrémité distale (72) du fil (150) et sur toute l'épaisseur du fil, mais également par le choix de la dureté du matériau du support/revêtement (60) du fil et l'emploi d'un fil conducteur en zigzag élastique (202). De plus, on peut obtenir une élasticité/rigidité de fil différentielle en utilisant un tube rigide (41) qui fait partie du canal d'insertion de stylet (40).
