Patent CA-2563625-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MAKER JOE BERT
IPC: B08B7/00
Filed: 2005-04-29
Abstract: Anatase titanium dioxide pigment calcined to a crush strength and density meeting the requirements for an acceptable scour medium is effectively utilized as a scour medium in the chloride process for producing rutile titanium dioxide. The calcining process converts a portion of the anatase pigment to rutile. This calcined anatase can, consequently, be utilized as a scour medium in the chloride process for producing rutile titanium dioxide.  The calcined anatase is not a contaminant to the process for producing rutile titanium dioxide. Thus, relatively inexpensive anatase can be converted into a rutile scour medium that can be processed into pigment.
Patent CA-2565133-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TELFER GEORGE
IPC: E21B34/00
Filed: 2005-04-29
Abstract: A ball valve seat (10) is disclosed which provides a temporary seal for a plug (40). The valve seat comprises a substantially cylindrical body (30) of a first volume, which defines a seating surface (34). A pressure differential is developed across the valve seat when the plug sealingly engages the seating surface. The body is formed of an elastic material which compresses from a first volume to a smaller second volume by application of a force on the plug, to provide a clearance which is greater than a plugging dimension of the plug, thus allowing passage of the plug downstream. After passage of the plug, the body returns to the first volume.

Patent CA-2572229-A1 (CA)
Title: Engine oil leak test method with egr valve leak offset
Inventor: RANKIN BRENT C
IPC: G01M3/28
Filed: 2006-12-22
Abstract: A method for pressure testing an engine to detect possible oil seal leaks. The engine is charged with a predetermined pressure while air pressure is also applied to an EGR valve intake port to offset leakage inherent in the EGR valve.  Thereafter, a pressure drop in the engine pressure is used to determine whether an oil seal leak may be present. Applying pressurized air to the EGR valve intake port compensates for EGR valve leakage and prevents the EGR valve leakage from masking possible oil seal leaks, thereby making the system more sensitive to such potential oil seal leaks.

Title: Process for producing carbon-reduced aldose compounds
Inventor: KAMEI KATSUHIDE
IPC: C07C323/12
Filed: 2005-12-28
Abstract: A process by which 5-deoxy-L-arabinose, which is important as a material for the production of saproterin, a useful therapeutic agent for atypical hyperphenylalaninemia, can be industrially and efficiently produced even with a simple production apparatus. The process for 5-deoxy-L-arabinose production is characterized by reacting L-rhamnose with a C11-16 linear alkyl mercaptan compound in the presence of an acid catalyst to yield an L-rhamnose di(alkyl mercaptal), subsequently subjecting the resultant compound to an oxidation reaction to obtain a sulfonyl derivative, and then subjecting it to a carbon diminution reaction. This production process is applicable to a process for the production of a compound formed by removing one carbon atom from another aldol compound. Thus, the process is one for producing carbon-diminished compounds of general aldoses.

Filed: 2006-09-21
Abstract: Disclosed is a single stranded primer-pronioter-selector construct comprising (in 3' to 5' orientation) a primer subsequence annealing to the target, a T7 or other promoter subsequence (the template strand), and a selector subsequence. The primer can be extended by template mediated elongation, including reverse transcription, or ligation to another oligonucleotide. The promoter sequence is oriented to direct the in-vitro transcription (IVT) opposite to that of primer extension, where the selector subsequence serves as a template for IVT. The selector is associated with the target subsequence of interest and it, and the amplified product are unique subsequences, dissimilar to other sequence present in the sample. The constructs is useful for determination of the presence and relative abundance of designated subsequences in the sample, multiplex gene expression analysis, multiplex allele counting, determination of polymorphic/mutation site, and loss of heterozygosity.
