Title: Fetal cell recovery method
IPC: C12N5/073
Filed: 1991-03-27
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/AU91/00115 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 2, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 2, 1992 PCT Filed Mar. 27, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO91/14768 PCT Pub. Date Oct. 3, 1991.The present invention provides a method for selectively recovering fetal cells from a maternal blood sample. The method is performed on a blood sample from a pregnant woman having different first and second cell surface antigens expressed by a first allele of a polymorphic genetic locus and a second allele of a polymorphic genetic locus. The method separates maternal and fetal cells based on differential reactivities of the cells to antibodies specific for polymorphic cell surface antigens, particularly the HLA antigens. In particular, the fetal and maternal cells are separated based on the non-reactivity of the fetal cells to an antibody specific for a cell surface antigen encoded by a non-transmitted maternal allele. The method can be performed using solid phase-affixed antibody and recovering non-bound cells or using fluorescent labeled antibody and recovering unlabeled cells by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. In a preferred embodiment, the cells are also contacted with a second antibody specific for the second cell surface antigen. Fetal cells are separated based on their reaction with, at most, one of the antibodies.

Patent EP-0623252-A4 (EP)
Title: Method and apparatus for charging, thawing, and formatting a battery.
Inventor: PODRAZHANSKY YURY
IPC: H02J7/00
Filed: 1993-01-19
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for rapidly charging a battery. The preferred charging method comprises applying one or more charging pulses (C1, C2), separated by a waiting period (CW1), with the last charging pulse, if there are more than one, being followed by a second waiting period (CW2). This is then followed by a series of discharging pulses (D1, D2, D3), which are separated by waiting periods (DW1, DW2), and followed by a last waiting period (DW3) before the occurrence of the next charging pulse (C1). The discharging pulses preferably have a magnitude which is approximately the same as the magnitude of the charging pulses but which have a duration which is substantially smaller than the duration of the charging pulses. The discharging pulses serve to create and disperse ions throughout the electrolyte of the battery so that the ions do not shield the plates of the battery from further charge transfer. Multiple discharge pulses are used rather than a single discharging pulse so that natural chemical and electrical gradients within the battery will serve to disperse the ions more evenly throughout the electrolyte. The use of discharging pulses of an extremely small duration does not cause any significant discharge of the battery but does increase the rate at which the battery can be charged and the efficiency with which the battery can be charged, thereby minimizing charging time and battery heating. Also disclosed are a method and an apparatus for thawing and charging a frozen battery, for formatting a new battery, for determining the state of formation of a battery, and for determining the state of charge of a battery.

Title: Transformed current sensing relay for use in switched network modems and circuit incorporating same
Inventor: REYMOND WELLES K
IPC: H01H51/28
Filed: 1994-05-11
Abstract: A transformed current sensing relay (k2) with reduced AC impedance of the operating coil is accomplished by adding a shorted secondary winding (14) to an otherwise conventional current sensing reed relay. The shorted secondary winding (14) is preferably implemented with a copper tube over the existing coil and inside the magnetic circuit. This transformed current sensing relay (k2) is particularly advantageous for the line current sensing function in switched network communications equipment such as high speed modems, where the transformed relay (k2) exhibits substantially lower impedance at high frequencies than the conventional current sensing relay. This transformed current sensing relay (k2) allows for the elimination of bypass capacitors and results in significant cost and space savings. Moreover, the transformer nature of the transformed current sensing relay (k2) allows for the elimination of suppression resistors from the interface resulting in additional cost and space savings.

Title: Hierarchical cylinder lock and key system
Inventor: FIELD PETER H
IPC: E05B27/06
Filed: 1994-12-07
Abstract: A hierarchical lock and key system includes a plurality of locks and keys wherein each key is provided with at least one unique bitting surface that engages a complementarily shaped tumbler pin tip to cause the tumbler pin to rotate and be positioned at a predetermined location. In one system, one key is provided with bittings to rotate the tumbler pins in a lock that is able to determine the rotational position of the tumbler pins. The one key may also operate a lock which does not determine the rotational position of the tumbler pins by positioning a tumbler pin at its proper elevation in the cylinder. Another key which has at least one different bitting from the one key will operate the latter lock (in which the tumblers do not have to be rotated). However, the other key will not operate the former lock because the bitting does not, properly rotate the tumbler pin to its unlocking location. The complementarily shaped contacting surfaces of the tumbler pin and key are generally sloped from one edge to an opposite edge in tapered form and may be flat, concave, convex, or a combination thereof.
