Patent CA-2543014-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MULLIGAN JOHN T
IPC: C07H21/00
Filed: 2004-10-13
Abstract: Polynucleotides having in excess of 1,000 nucleotides can be prepared using a solid phase synthesis technique. A feature of the technique is the use of a reusable solid support that contains covalently bound oligonucleotide. This covalently bound oligonucleotide is annealed to a bridge oligonucleotide, where the bridge is also annealed to a first oligonucleotide that forms a portion of the target polynucleotide. After the target polynucleotide is synthesized, it can be removed from the solid support under denaturing conditions, and the solid support re-used to prepare additional target polynucleotides. The yield of the target polynucleotide increases when shearing force is applied to the solid support that is linked to the growing oligonucleotide. This shearing force is thought to extend the growing end of the oligonucleotide away from contact with other oligonucleotide bound to the solid support and make that end more accessible to annealing with solution oligonucleotide. The synthesis is conveniently accomplished on a porous frit, where reagents and washing solutions are pumped through the frit.

Title: High precision feed particularly useful for uv ink jet printing on vinyl
Inventor: QUATTROCIOCCHI ANGELO
IPC: B41L39/00
Filed: 2005-01-28
Abstract: An apparatus (30, 40, 50) and a method of ink jet printing are disclosed that use a system for feeding a substrate longitudinally relative to a support area and a system for moving a printhead parallel to the direction of substrate feed. hldexing between transverse scan rows of a printhead (20) is carried out initially by the substrate feed system (16) and the actual feed distance is ineasured using an encoder or other substrate position measurement device (26). A controller (25) determines the amount of any error that occurs between the actual and the desired feed distances. The controller (25) then sends signals to move the printhead (20) to compensate for any error in the feed system feed. Compensating adjustments are then made to the next subsequent substrate indexing step so that the printhead tends to move back toward its home or zeroed position with its next correction and does not walk away from this home position as a result of cumulative movements. For printers that have bridges (17) moveable relative to the machine frame (11) on which the printhead (20) is carried, printhead motion is achieved by moving the bridge, for example, by actuating a linear servo bridge motion system (31). For fixed bridge roll-to-roll printers, the printhead (20) can be caused to shift longitudinally on the bridge (17) to make the correcting movements.

Abstract: A SYSTEM HAS USER EQUIPMENT (1; 2) EACH HAVING BUFFERS (3, 4, 5, 6; 7, 8, 9, 10) FOR STORING PACKETS CLASSIFIED ACCORDING TO PRIORITY AND READY FOR  TRANSMISSION OVER A RADIO INTERFACE TO A NETWORK ELEMENT (12). IN SUCH A  SYSTEM, USER EQUIPMENT SENDS CAPACITY REQUEST SIGNALS (11; 13) INDICATIVE OF  THE VARIOUS PRIORITIES OF THE BUFFERED PACKETS ON THE RADIO INTERFACE TO THE  NETWORK ELEMENT. RATHER THAN SEEKING A CAPACITY ALLOCATION DECISION FROM A  HIGHER LEVEL IN THE CORE NETWORK, THE NETWORK ELEMENT ITSELF MAKES THE  CAPACITY ALLOCATION DECISION AND PROVIDES A CAPACITY ALLOCATION SIGNAL (14) TO  THE USER EQUIPMENT. PACKETS THAT HAVE THUS BEEN ALLOCATED CAPACITY BY THE  NETWORK ELEMENT ARE THEN SENT FROM THE USER EQUIPMENT TO THE NETWORK ELEMENT.  HAVING THE NETWORK ELEMENT MAKE THE CAPACITY ALLOCATION DECISIONS ITSELF is A  MORE EFFICIENT SYSTEM SINCE THE NETWORK ELEMENT IS IN DIRECT COMMUNICATION  WITH THE USER EQUIPMENT OVER THE RADIO INTERFACE AND THE DECISION IS MADE IN  AN UNMEDIATED WAY.
