Patent CA-2522753-A1 (CA)
Title: Immuno-amplification
Inventor: ROSENSTEIN ROBERT
IPC: C12P19/34
Filed: 2004-04-19
Abstract: A highly sensitive, high-throughput immuno-amplification assay is provided for clinically relevant samples, such as blood. The assay comprises the use of two proximity members comprising an analyte-specific binding component conjugated to an oligonucleotide. Binding an analyte brings the oligonucleotide moieties of the proximity members sufficiently close to form an amplicon. The presence of the analyte then is detected through amplification of the amplicon and detection of the amplified nucleic acids. The sensitivity of the assay of the present invention is improved by preventing spurious or non-specific amplicon formation by proximity members that are not complexed with an analyte. In one embodiment, target-independent amplicon formation is prevented by using hybridization blocker oligonucleotides that bind oligonucleotide moieties that are not hybridized to each other. Background is further reduced by providing a solid phase capture oligonucleotide that prevents amplicon formation until the captured complex is released.

Patent CA-2542911-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DANIELS CLIFFORD ORVAL
IPC: F16H37/12
Filed: 2006-04-03
Abstract: A flexible mechanical linkage between two rotating shafts which allows one, the torque output shaft, to rotate at an angular velocity equal to, or variably lesser than the other, the torque input shaft. Such devices are commonly referred to as continuously variable transmissions.   In this invention, a limited range of loads greater than torque input inherently cause the output shaft to rotate at a lesser velocity than the input shaft. This difference in velocities between the two shafts is proportional to the ratio of load over torque input and causes this device to adjust operation to compensate for the ratio of load over torque input.     All component movements are rotational so that all mass movements are fully counter--balanced by the mass movements of other components and friction between components is eliminated by ring type roller or ball bearings. All components are well supported to withstand high torsional loads. This invention is simple, inexpensive to manufacture, compact, lightweight, offers a wide range of torque multiplication ratios, and in automotive applications, transmits engine-braking force.
