Abstract: The present Invention provides novel methods for immortalizing cells that secrete antibodies of one or more specific isotypes. Polyclonal, oligoclonal, and monoclonal populations of cells obtained using the methods of the Invention can be screened on the basis of the functional and/or binding activities of the antibodies they secrete, for example directed to antigens of human or viral origin having medical interest, in cell culture conditions. Using these methods, human B cells that secrete antibodies binding human Cytomegalovirus, Herpes Simplex Virus, or HSP60 protein have been efficiently immortalized with Epstein-Barr virus.

Patent CA-2670204-C (CA)

Abstract: A power module having at least one electric power component, such as a power electronic semiconductor component. An electrical contact for a load current is formed on a lower surface and also on an upper surface of the power semiconductor component. To reduce an explosion pressure and accept power when the power electronic semiconductor component is overloaded, a hollow space filled with at least one electrically conducting particle is formed on an electrical contact surface of the electrical contact. In case of a short circuit, an arc is initially generated above the semiconductor element thickness of the power semiconductor component, whereupon the filling in the hollow space takes over current conduction. Preferably, the filling in the hollow space is a plurality of spherical electrically conducting particles. The explosion pressure can escape into interstices in the filling if there is a short circuit. Furthermore, metal vapors are cooled and are condensed. A duct extending from and out of the hollow space can additionally be provided to reduce the explosion pressure, thus preventing power components from demolishing the surroundings during an electrical overload.  The foregoing power module may be an improved thyristor.

Abstract: Fibers for diamond-impregnated cutting tools and their associated methods for manufacture and use are described. The cutting tools contain a diamond-impregnated cutting portion that contains fibers made from carbon, glass, ceramic, polymer, and the like. The fibers can be in any form, including chopped and milled fibers. The fibers may also be coated with metal, ceramic, or other performance-enhancing coatings. The fibers may be used to both control the tensile strength control the erosion rate of the matrix to optimize the cutting performance of the tools. Additionally, the fibers may also weaken the structure and allow higher modulus binders to be used for the cutting tools at a lower cost, allowing the amount of fibers to be tailored to retain the diamonds in the cutting potion for the desired amount. And as the cutting portion erodes, the fibers may also increase the lubricity at the face of the cutting portion. Using the fibers allows the cutting tools to last longer and make them safer and more economical because they need to be replaced less often.

Abstract: At least one model (214) is associated with one or more manipulated variables and one or more controlled variables, which are associated with a cascade liquefied natural gas facility (100). Adjustments to the one or more manipulated variables are made using the at least one model (214) to maintain the one or more controlled variables within defined limits. For example, a controlled variable may identify an overall load placed on multiple refrigeration systems in the facility. The one or more manipulated variables may be adjusted to increase the overall load placed on the refrigeration systems. The overall load can be determined by identifying a maximum of: a projected feed gas rate to operate a propane refrigeration system (118-128) at maximum load, a projected feed gas rate to operate an ethylene or ethane refrigeration system (130-140) at maximum load, and a projected feed gas rate to operate a methane refrigeration system (144-150) at maximum load.
