Title: Cartilage or bone matrix as a nucleic acid delivery vehicle
Inventor: GROOMS JAMIE M
IPC: A61F2/44
Filed: 2000-07-28
Abstract: The present invention relates to tissues, including but not limited to bone and cartilage implants, as carrier matrices for delivery of biologically active nucleic acids to sites where such tissues are to be implanted. Upon implantation, the nucleic acids associated with the implants are taken up by cells within the implant site and are expressed, to produce growth factors, regenerative factors and the like encoded by the nucleic acids. In this manner, for example, where the nucleic acid encodes bone morphogenetic protein or the like, the rate of bone induction, conduction of healing and the rate of cartilage formation or repair is enhanced, without the attendant need to manufacture, purify, isolate and deliver protein or peptide growth factors.

Title: Off-set reduced hall element
Inventor: SAUERER JOSEF
IPC: G01R33/07
Filed: 2000-08-18
Abstract: A Hall element comprises a region (100) having a non-zero Hall constant, a first contact (K1) for supplying an operating current (I) to said region (100), a third contact (K3) for conducting the operating current (I) from said region (100), said first and third contacts defining a direction of the operating current within said region, a second (K2) and a fourth contact (K4) for tapping a Hall voltage, and a conductor pattern (10) connected to the first contact or to the third contact and substantially surrounding said region laterally or being arranged above or below said region. The conductor pattern has the effect that the intrinsic field of the operating current through the Hall element is suppressed outside the Hall element such that the Hall element effects an at least reduced offset in adjacent Hall elements. In addition thereto, the arrangement of the conductor pattern has the effect that effects of the current return on the Hall voltage generated by the Hall element itself are also at least reduced. An offset reduction is possible simultaneously on an element, by way of suitable implementation, also for both operating current directions in a spinning-current operating mode.

Title: Integrated obstacle detection system
Inventor: HAWLEY STEPHEN A
IPC: G01V8/12
Filed: 2000-08-04
Abstract: A hybrid obstacle detection system for a power driven closure (12) including a non-contact obstacle detection system (14) and a contact-based obstacle detection system (100). The hybrid system combines the beneficial aspects of contact and non-contact systems while avoiding the deficiencies characteristic of the constituent systems when employed alone. In the non-contact system, physical contact with an obstacle is required before the obstacle can be detected and corrective action can be taken. Inputs from both the contact-based system and the non-contact system may be utilized over the entire closure travel path, or may be invoked only within a specific portion of the closure travel path. Either or both of the constituent systems may be used to ascertain the location of the closure. A central controller (202) may be used for coordinating the inputs from the two systems, or a controller associated with one of these systems may be adapted for this purpose. If the central controller is employed, it may be a controller dedicated to this function, or one which is already utilized in the environment of the aperture for another purpose.
