Title: Method for chemically modifying polysaccharides
Inventor: WENK HANS HENNING
IPC: A23L29/206
Filed: 2006-05-03
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for chemically modifying polysaccharides with the aid of a mechanical device and of at least one modifying reagent. The method is characterized in that the polysaccharide constituent is subjected at least once to a treatment by a roll mill during which at least two adjacent and counter-rotating rolls rotate at different speeds, and the polysaccharide constituent is mixed with the modifying reagent before and/or during the mechanical treatment. During this method, typically pectins, carob seed grain, guar meal and alginates are used as the polysaccharide constituent, and epoxides, amines or carboxylic acid derivatives are used as modifying reagents. The mechanical treatment can be repeated one to three times in a multiple roll mill, preferred rotating speeds of the adjacent rolls typically differing by 200 %. The polysaccharides, which are mechanically modified in an extremely homogeneous manner according to the inventive method, are preferably used as thickening agents, gelling agents, emulsifiers, food additives, cosmetic additives, as well as hair and fiber care agents.

Title: Method for regenerating an immune system
Inventor: GHEN MITCHELL J
IPC: A61K35/26
Filed: 2006-07-27
Abstract: An isolated and purified cell line of hematopoeitic stem cells (HSC) that are incapable of expressing the CCR5 receptor on the cell surface ("the CCR5.DELTA.32 cells" are used to regenerate the immune system in a subject in need thereof and especially to treat a subject infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The method is carried out by transplanting CCR5.DELTA.32 into the recipient subject. Because mature immune cells derived from CCR5.DELTA.32 cells cannot express functional CCR5 receptors, they will be resistant to infection by HIV and other pathogens that use the CCR5 receptor to infect cells. An embodiment of the invention includes administration of a nutritional regimen to the patient that optimizes conditions for CCR5.DELTA.32 cell transplantation. Another embodiment of the invention includes co-transplanting mesenchymal cells along with the HSC in order to enhance the growth and development of the transplanted HSC.

Patent CA-2628897-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FORD MICHAEL BRENT
IPC: E03B7/07
Filed: 2008-04-11
Abstract: A methods and system detecting water system leaks provides detecting of water leakage having very low flows. Very low flow leaks are detected by detecting drops in a building water system pressure when the water supply source is disabled. The water system is disabled by an electrically controllable valve, which may be turned off in response to a motion detector that detects that no human activity is present in the building. The rate of pressure drop is used to determine the magnitude of the leak, and multiple thresholds can be used to detect slow leaks versus more serious leaks. A humidity detector may also be incorporated in the system to detect abnormal humidity conditions and shut the electrically controllable valve in response. Appliance current consumption can be detected and used to override motion-sensor based shut-off of the valve, so that water-consuming appliances can continue to operate.

Abstract: This is a disclosure of a power supply circuit for wall-mounted electronic switches. The disclosed invention is about a power supply circuit for driving circuit inside the wall- mounted electronic switches, which can supply sufficient current demanded by these switch circuits. Recently the functions of wall-mounted electronic switches are being diversified from lamp switching to security, watch, remote control, room temperature control, etc. and the amount of current required inside the switch circuits is increased up to tens of mA. This requires a competitive power supply circuit that can supply a high current. In addition, a space-saving characteristic is also required because the space of a wall- mounted switch is narrow. The invented power supply circuit for electronic switches saves space, supplies a high current, and enhances competitiveness in price and quality, and consequently it makes a considerable contribution to the competitiveness of wall-mounted electronic switches.
