Patent CA-2847928-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MCCARTHY ANDREW N
IPC: E03F7/06
Filed: 2014-04-02
Abstract: The Beaver Control Gate is designed to prevent Beavers (Beaver Eager) from building blockages inside a culvert. This guard was designed for permanent placement at the upstream opening of a culvert to prevent Beaver from entering the culvert and also provides an effective means for removing the obstruction which the Beaver will build against the guard. The Beaver Control Gate is a two piece apparatus with one unit mounted permentaly on the upstream end of the culvert and the second is a removable gate consisting of longitudinally extending, evenly spaced rigid steel bars.  The spacing of the bars is sufficient to extend across the culvert opening to prevent the Beaver from entering the structure and allow unrestricted fish passage. The gate can be vertically raised and locked to allow the user to remove the obstruction and then let it back down.  The Gate section can be removed for winter storage or after Beaver activity ceases. This apparatus is designed to drastically reduce the cost of culvert maintenance, eliminate damage to the structure that occurs when backhoes/excavators are used to remove a blockage and minimize environmental damage from siltation entering the watercourse.

Title: Noninvasive prenatal diagnosis of fetal trisomy by allelic ratio analysis using targeted massively parallel sequencing
Inventor: CHIU WAI KWUN ROSSA
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2013-04-08
Abstract: Whether a fetus has an aneuploidy associated with a first chromosome is detected using ratios of alleles detected in a maternal sample having a mixture of maternal and fetal DNA. DNA from the sample is enriched for target regions associated with polymorphic loci and then sequenced. Polymorphic loci (e.g., single nucleotide polymorphisms) in the target regions with fetal -specific alleles are identified on a first chromosome and on one or more reference chromosomes. A first ratio of the fetal-specific alleles and shared alleles is determined for the loci on the first chromosome. A second ratio of the fetal-specific alleles and shared alleles is determined for the loci on the reference chromosome(s). A third ratio of the first and second ratio can be compared to a cutoff to determine whether an aneuploidy is present, and whether die aneuploidy is maternally-derived or paternally-derived.

Abstract: L'invention a trait à un appareil destiné à améliorer la résolution d'un détecteur pour l'imagerie dans l'infrarouge fermé sous vide et refroidi à très basse température. Un détecteur mosaïque bidimensionnel utilisant des pixels photosensibles est exposé successivement à une scène d'image, acquérant plusieurs échantillons d'imagerie. Un filtre de masquage disposé entre le détecteur mosaïque et le plan focal de la scène d'image est maintenu à une position fixe par rapport audit détecteur mosaïque et réduit la région de pixels collectant le rayonnement incident pour chaque échantillon d'imagerie, de sorte que seule une partie de chaque zone de pixel de la scène d'image soit imagée dans le pixel de détecteur mosaïque correspondant. Un moyen de déplacement déplace successivement le trajet optique de la scène d'image par rapport au filtre de masquage, selon un incrément de déplacement ou une valeur de réduction de facteur de remplissage égaux à une fraction de la largeur de pixel de la mosaïque, afin d'imager différentes régions de sous-pixels dans chaque échantillon d'imagerie. Un processeur reconstitue un cadre d'image ayant une résolution supérieure à la résolution intrinsèque du détecteur, cette supériorité étant égale à la valeur de réduction de facteur de remplissage.

Title: Optical device for detecting abnormalities in milk
Inventor: KRIEF HAIM
IPC: A01J5/013
Filed: 2013-09-27
Abstract: An arrangement for detecting colour changes in fluids is proposed that comprises an optical arrangement for detecting the intensities of certain colour frequencies. The optical arrangement includes a white light emitter (410) and a detector (420) arranged to generate signals representing the detected intensity of red, blue, green and white light. A processor (440) receives the signals and calculates values representing the ratio of detected red to white light, blue to white light and green to white light. The processor further compares these ratios with reference values and to generate a signal when the results of the comparison indicate that the ratios differ from the reference values. By generating the ratio of intensity of each received colour to the intensity of received white light, the values are rendered virtually self- compensating and thus largely insensitive to variations in temperature and in intensity that may occur over time with aging of the components.
