Title: Vehicle headlight and tailight, high visibility retroreflective safety markings, to enhance vehicle recognition, when a vehicle is been driven with head/dim or tail lights, which are not functioning correctly, or have not been turned on
Inventor: RENEHAN ANNE
IPC: B60Q1/00
Filed: 2013-03-28
Abstract: The invention relates to the visual safety of vehicles in the automotive industry, in particular the invention provides vehicle headlight and taillight regions, with high visibility retroreflective safety markings, to enhance vehicle recognition, when a vehicle is been driven with head/dim or taillights, which are not functioning correctly, or have not been turned on.

Title: Complementation assay assessing protein solubility and folding
Inventor: THOMAS PHILIP JORDAN
IPC: G01N33/15
Filed: 2001-02-14
Granted: 2006-09-14
Abstract: Many proteins, when produced recombinantly, suffer from improper processing, folding and lack normal solubility. Modified proteins, including those indicative of disease states, also can have such defects. The present invention is directed to methods of identifying proper and improper protein folding, aberrant processing and/or insolubility. The method relies on the use of two components: a specialized fusion protein and structural complementation. The fusion protein contains sequences from the protein of interest and one portion of a marker protein that, by itself, is not active. A host cell then provides the remainder of the marker protein that serves to "complement" the function of the fused marker protein such that their association restores activity, permitting detection.

When the measured amount of filler present is lower than a desired level, the addition is increased. When the measured amount of filler present is higher than a desired level, the addition is reduced. The continual addition of filler is based, exclusively on the concentration level of filler measured in the white water or the stock.

Title: Improved method of developing subsurface freeze zone
Inventor: KAMINSKY ROBERT D
IPC: E21B43/26
Filed: 2007-10-10
Granted: 2013-03-28
Abstract: A method for lowering the temperature of a portion of a subsurface formation is provided. Preferably, the formation is an oil shale formation. The method includes the step of injecting a cooling fluid under pressure into a wellbore, with the well bore having been completed at or below a depth of the subsurface formation. In one embodiment the wellbore has an elongated tubular member for receiving the cooling fluid and for conveying it downhole to the subsurface formation. The wellbore also has an expansion valve in fluid communication with the tubular member through which the cooling fluid flows. The method then includes the steps of injecting a cooling fluid under pressure into the wellbore, and expanding the cooling fluid across the first expansion valve. In this way, the temperature of the cooling fluid is reduced. The temperature of the surrounding formation is likewise reduced through thermal conduction and convection.
