Title: Method and products for detection of human t cell leukemia virus.
Inventor: ESSEX MYRON E
IPC: C07K14/155
Filed: 1984-04-13
Abstract: A first glycoprotein having a molecular weight of approximately 61,000-68,000 daltons in the MJ, C5-MJ, C91 PL or HUT-102 cell lines, of which 46,000 to 48,000 is the unglycosylated moiety, is obtained from cells infected with human T cell leukemia virus. A second glycoprotein having a molecular weight of approximately 45,000-52,000 daltons is also obtained from such cells and is in large part identical to the NH2-terminal end of the first glycoprotein. The presence, in a biological specimen, of antibody to the antigenic determinant of either of these proteins is indicative of the presence of cells infected by human T cell leukemia virus. An assay for the antibody is a useful diagnostic procedure for determining such infection in biological specimens.

Title: High definition b-mac television signal transmission system
IPC: H04N7/083
Filed: 1989-10-10
Abstract: A method for encoding a high definition television signal comprising a first frequency spectrum portion for standard resolution and a second high frequency spectrum portion for high resolution consistent with the B-MAC composite signal format comprises the steps or orthogonally sampling the high definition signal, diagonally filtering diagonal resolution information, and decimating alternate samples of alternate lines for folding in high frequency horizontal resolution information by means of a skew-symmetric low-pass filter. A method at a standard television resolution receiver for decoding the high-definition television signal uses a simple low pass filter to recover the baseband television spectrum at standard television resolution. A method at a high-definition television receiver comprises the steps of unfolding the high frequency horizontal resolution information and thereafter line doubling the unfolded high frequency resolution informtion to improve vertical resolution of the high-definition television signal. Thus, the encoding method is compatible for reception at either a standard resolution or high-definition television receiver.

Title: Improved flow measurement system
IPC: G01F1/66
Filed: 1991-06-26
Abstract: A block (41) secures a conduit (43) in a channel (42) and positions at least one transducer (50) so acoustic signals travel along a precisely defined path through a flowing fluid. For small tubes, two transducers (72, 73) are coupled to a tube and launch acoustic interrogation signals along an axial path within the tube. For larger conduits, two transducers (420, 430) launch oblique signals which follow a zig-zag path through the fluid, reflecting off an inner wall of the conduit. A transducer mounting includes a plurality of massive elements placed in the acoustic propagation path to remove crosstalk. In a preferred embodiment, the elements are rings (10, 11), which are attached to, or are machined from, a thick cylinder to leave a thin-walled cylinder (14) that holds a transducer (220) off from a conduit (4a) wall. In one embodiment, a thick-walled tube (230) with radially oriented slots (232) constitutes the transducer mounting structure.

Title: Resilient pavement marker.
Inventor: PAULOS DEAN
IPC: E01F9/07
Filed: 1993-02-18
Abstract: A resilient pavement marker for delineating lanes and shoulders of roadways which is not susceptible to the forces associated with plowing of the road or damage from environmental conditions. The marker incorporates an assembled unit which may be readily installed within the roadway including a base housing, a depressible piston which carries a detachable lens assembly, and a compressible biasing assembly to facilitate depression of the piston and return to its original position. The piston is retained within the housing by a cap cooperating with the base. The cap includes an opening which has a lobed or scalloped configuration adapted to cooperate with the scalloped configuration of the piston thereby preventing rotation of the piston within the housing. The lens assembly is removable from the piston to facilitate simple replacement of the reflective lenses without removal or disassembly of the marker. The compression assembly fills substantially the entire interior of the housing and includes closed-cell members to eliminate absorption of moisture and damage from freezing.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif d'ablation rapide, efficace, précise et non traumatisante de tissus biologiques, par utilisation d'un système laser (10) produisant des impulsions de durée ultracourte avec des cadences élevées de répétition des impulsions. La durée de chaque impulsion laser est de l'ordre d'environ 1 fs (1 femtoseconde) à moins de 50 ps (50 picosecondes) de façon que le dépôt d'énergie se limite à une faible profondeur et se réalise avant que ne puissent se produire des phénomènes de conduction thermique et de mouvement hydrodynamique relativement importants, causes accessoires de lésions. L'épaisseur de substance enlevée par chaque impulsion est de l'ordre d'environ 1 micromètre. En outre, les effets thermiques et mécaniques minimum liés à ce procédé d'ablation autorisent un fonctionnement utilisant une cadence élevée de répétition atteignant la zone des 10 à plus de 1000 Hertz, ce qui permet des taux élevés d'enlèvement de matière. L'énergie de l'impulsion laser est faible par rapport au volume de tissu enlevé. L'une des réalisations de l'invention concerne l'utilisation, comme source, d'un laser amplifié, de type saphir dopé au titane, à impulsions comprimées.

Title: Use of prostate tumor inducing gene for detection of cancer cells
Inventor: FISHER PAUL B
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1997-09-05
Abstract: This invention provides a method for detecting cancer cells in a sample comprising detection of the expression of a Prostate Tumor Inducing Gene in the sample, wherein a positive detection of the expression indicates the presence of cancer cells in the sample. In an embodiment, the expression is performed by measuring the level of PTI mRNA. The mRNA is measured by reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction using at least a pair of appropriate primers. It is well known in the art that once the sequence of the Prostate Tumor Inducing Gene is determined, appropriate pair of primers may be selected. This invention also provides the above method, wherein the expression is performed by measuring the level of PTI protein. The level of PTI protein is measured by steps of: a) contacting the sample with antibody capable of specifically recognizing PTI-1 protein under conditions permitting formation of complexes between the PTI-1 protein and the antibody; and b) measuring the complex formed, thereby measuring the level of PTI-1 protein expressed in the cancer cells.

Patent EP-1027805-A4 (EP)
Title: System and method for maintaining timing synchronization in a digital video network
Inventor: LAWRENCE PETER H
IPC: H04H20/82
Filed: 1998-11-04
Abstract: A novel system and method for maintaining timing synchronization in a digital video network, in conjunction with a digital video and data delivery system, makes possible the delivery of digital video content, bi-directional data services, such as Internet data (14), and plain old telephone service (POTS) to an end user over a communications channel. The channel is typically the copper wire pair that extends between a telephone company central office (100) and a residential premises (1300), but may be any communication medium that supports the communication of compressed digital video, bi-directional data, such as Internet data, and POTS, and indeed, may be a wireless connection. The digital video and data delivery system capitalizes on a bus, or broadcast backplane, created by circuitry contained within the central office. The broadcast backplane enables a plurality of video program data to be available to each end user, and allows a plurality of end users access to a plurality of video programming content without the necessity of delivering the entire program content to each user. The digital video and data delivery system employs novel architecture to synchronize the timing of the digital video signal to ensure that the digital video program received is of high quality and that it also complies with the MPEG-2 standard.
