Inventor: DUBREUIL RICHARD EDWARD
IPC: E04C2/38
Filed: 2005-07-21
Abstract: A panel structure suitable for walls and floors has interior reinforcing members acting in compression wherein the reinforcing members are positioned in mutually supporting relation. For partition walls, the reinforcing members are supported intermediate their ends, so as to increase the buckling strut load capacity.  For shallow floor panels and the like, and in the floor support system. the reinforcing members are in lateral compression. The reinforcing members may be selected from plywood, wood, particle board, wafer board, oriented strandboard, cardboard, strawboard, low, medium and high density fiberboard panels, hardboard, laminated panels and fiberglass, metal and plastic sections. The paired reinforcing members are in back-to-back, mutually supporting, mutually inclined relation. The edges of the reinforcing members may be glued to the adjoining panel face sheets. Tension elements, strapping and foamed plastic reinforcement may be used to stabilize the members.

Patent CA-2515200-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DOONG RON LOU
IPC: C12N15/82
Filed: 2004-02-05
Abstract: The invention provides an isolated nucleic acid molecule encoding the polypeptide having galacturonosyltransferase (GaIAT) activity. The GALA T 1 disclosed represents the first pectin biosynthetic glycosyltransferase gene isolated from plants. The invention further provides 14 GALAT and 10 GALAT-like gene superfamily members. The identification of the GALAT gene superfamily offers new opportunities to modulate pectin synthesisin vivo and in vitro by modulating the GALAT gene, for example, transgenic plants that produce modified pectins can be generated by altering the GALAT gene. Since modified pectins are predicted to affect plant growth, development, and plant defense responses, the transgenic plants are expected to have improved agricultural value. The modified pectins isolated from such transgenic plants are useful as gelling and stabilizing agents in the food, neutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries. The expressed proteins, and variants thereof, of the GALAT superfamily are useful to produce in vitro modified pectins of commercial value.

Title: Altered fad2 and fad3 genes in brassica and the molecular marker-assisted detection thereof
Inventor: GUPTA MANJU
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2004-02-11
Abstract: The present invention provides methods of marker assisted selection for high oleic/low linolenic traits in canola and in other oil seed crop species, as well as isolated nucleic acids for use as molecular markers in such methods.  In particular, molecular markers and Brassica nucleic acid corresponding to fad2 and fad3 gene mutations are disclosed. The markers of the present invention are highly useful for the direct selection of desirable fad2 and fad3 alleles during marker-assisted trait introgression and breeding. In a one aspect of the embodiment, two single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers are provided which correspond to the alleles.Thus, the present invention advantageously permits one of skill in the art to breed for the molecular markers described herein, or derivatives thereof, rather than breeding for a high oleic/low linolenic phenotype.

Abstract: A lithium ion battery includes an anode, a cathode, and an electrolyte between the two. When the battery is in its initial charged state, as it is upon exiting the manufacturing process, the anode is composed of a first portion of lithium-deficient electrode material, and a second portion of lithium-rich or lithium-intercalated material coated on at least a part of the surface of the first portion. And the cathode is composed of lithium-deficient material adapted to react reversibly with lithium ions from the lithium-rich second portion of the anode during subsequent discharge of the battery from its initial charged state as the second portion becomes fully consumed. During each subsequent charge-discharge reaction cycle, free lithium ions from the cathode are inserted into the lattice structure of the solely remaining first portion of the anode to render it lithium-rich in the charged state, without plating lithium metal onto the anode, and lithium ions from the anode are re-inserted into the lattice structure of the cathode to render it lithium-rich in the discharged state. Methods of manufacture are described.

Title: Endoscope reprocessor connectors having reduced occlusion
Inventor: NGUYEN NICK NGOC
IPC: A61B1/12
Filed: 2006-05-24
Abstract: An occlusion minimizing connector connects a lumen in a lumen device to a source of sterilization fluid in an endoscope reprocessor. The connector has a sealing portion shaped to engage a surface on the lumen device. The sealing portion is formed of a resilient material biasing a sealing surface into contact with the surface on the lumen device. The biasing is such that the seal is maintained when pressure within the flow passage is below a predetermined level preventing leakage of the flow past the sealing portion. When pressure within the flow passage is above the predetermined level fluid leaks past the sealing portion to bathe the surface on the lumen device.      Thus, the surface will not be occluded during a cleaning process.
