Patent CA-2614301-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BURROWS GREGORY G
IPC: C12N5/00
Filed: 2005-07-07
Abstract: The present invention provides T cell hybridomas and related compositions and assay systems for investigative, diagnostic, and therapeutic use in modulating T cell receptor (TCR)-mediated immune response. The T cell hybridomas of the invention are typically constructed by fusing a naïve or early central memory T cell isolated from a mammalian subject with an immortalizing fusion partner (e.g. mammalian lymphoid tumor cell) to yield clonal T cell hybrids. The resulting T cell hybridomas exhibit antigen (Ag)-specific proliferation responsiveness over a background level of proliferation of the hybridomas.  These hybridomas are useful for screening, identifying, and characterizing T  cell immune modulatory agents, for example recombinant T cell receptor ligands (RTLs) and other agents that can modulate TCR-mediated T cell immune responses. Ag-specific proliferative response profiles exhibited by the T cell hybridomas of the invention show sufficient amplitude, sensitivity and fidelity to distinguish and/or quantify the presence and/or activity of a test RTL or other test modulatory agent in screening and sensitivity assays employing the hybridomas. These and other aspects of the invention yield powerful tools and methods for developing and characterizing novel RTLs and other immune modulatory agents for use in treating immune disorders, including a wide range of autoimmune diseases, in mammals.

Title: Carbonylation process
Inventor: BEAVIS RICHARD
IPC: C07C53/08
Filed: 2006-11-22
Abstract: A process for the carbonylation of an alcohol and/or reactive derivative thereof, in which one or more reaction zone feed streams are fed to a reaction zone in which exothermic carbonylation takes place to produce one or more product streams. Heat from at least a portion of the one or more product streams is fed to a first heat-exchange stream, such as a supply of pressurised steam. The process is characterised by heat from a second heat-exchange stream, having a temperature lower than that of the one or more product streams, being transferred to a reaction zone feed stream, so that the one or more product streams comprise heat originating from the second heat-exchange stream and heat generated by the exothermic carbonylation reaction.  Thus, heat originating from the second heat-exchange stream can be transferred to the first heat-exchange stream, resulting in reduced heat loss and greater process efficiency.

Abstract: A cable, which is especially suitable as a suspension cable for cable railways, is described. The cable comprises a core (31) and several outer strands that surround the core and consist, for example, of several wires (32.1...32.6, 34.1 ... 34.12). The cable is characterized by an integrated antifreezing device (33.1 ... 33.6) which can be controlled from one end of the cable, preferably to prevent or specifically remove ice formations on an outer side of the cable. The antifreezing device (33.1 ... 33.6) is thereby preferably integrated in at least one of the outer strands, however, it can also be integrated in the area of the core (31) of the cable or in inserts that fill spaces between individual wires (32.1...32.6, 34.1 ... 34.12) of the cable. As the antifreezing device (33.1 ... 33.6) is preferably configured as resistance heating, its heat intensity can be accurately adjusted by the flow of the current. By means of the cross sections that can be changed along the cable or changeable material properties of the heating wires (33.1...33.6), it is possible to heat, especially intensely, in a concentrated manner, sections of the cable to be heated. In this way, the overall energy consumption of the device described can be as low as possible. Various constellations of strand wires (32.1...32.6, 34.1 ... 34.12), of the core (31) of the cable and the antifreezing devices (33.1 ... 33.6) can occur, from the integration of the antifreezing devices (33.1 ... 33.6) in the core (31) of the cable to their positioning on parts of the outer surface of the cable.
