Inventor: TOUS GUILLERMO I
IPC: C07K16/10
Filed: 2006-06-23
Abstract: The present invention provides methods of optimizing the production and purification of antibody formulations that immunospecifically bind to antigens of interest and are suitable for parenteral administration to a subject, which formulations exhibit increased stability due to reduced degradation and aggregation of the antibody component on long term storage. Such methods provide formulations that offer multiple advantages over formulations produced by non-optimized methods including less stringent or more readily available transportation/storage conditions, and less frequent dosing or smaller dosage amounts in the therapeutic, prophylactic and diagnostic use of such formulations. The invention further provides methods of utilizing the formulations of the present invention.

Abstract: An Internet-based system provides substantially instantaneous communication between two devices for exchanging voice and multimedia signals. The system includes ISP gateways with unique IDs that service a plurality of devices with unique telephone numbers. The system further includes a directory which correlates the devices with ISP gateways. More specifically, the directory includes a RELATIVE records/words/cells in a RANDOM ACCESS TABLE (RRAT) with each entry being identified by a record number, which in this case corresponds to the telephone numbers (as they are or in reverse). The entry relates directly or indirectly the telephone number with the respective ISP gateway.  Communication is established by having the ISP gateway of the calling device looking up the ISP gateway of the called device in the directory using the telephone number of the called device. The ISP gateway then generates a handle for the called ISP and uses the handle to establish a communication channel between two devices quickly and efficiently.
