Inventor: RENFREW JOHN A
IPC: G01N27/447
Filed: 1995-10-31
Abstract: An apparatus for the rapid filling and polymerization of electrophoresis gels comprises: (a) a housing; (b) a filling fixture removably disposed within the housing and adapted to receive a gel holder having an internal gel compartment; (c) an injection system, which is connectible to a reservoir for holding a polymerizable solution; (d) a solution injection connector adapted to couple the injection system to a gel holder placed within the filling fixture, (e) a controller for the injection system, which causes the injection system to inject polymerizable solution from the reservoir into the gel compartment; and (f) a radiation source disposed within the housing in a location effective to irradiate polymerizable solution within the gel compartment of a gel holder in the filling fixture. The filling fixture may be mounted on a base which is slidable between a position inside the housing, and a position outside the housing to permit easy placement of a gel holder into the filling fixture.

Title: Intracellular selection
Inventor: TSE ERIC
IPC: C07K16/32
Filed: 1999-07-30
Abstract: A general immunoglobulin-target assay system is provided, in which a positive outcome (the generation of a signal) depends only on the intracellular interaction of immunoglobulin with target.

Title: Electronically switched fiber optic directional coupler
Inventor: PAVLATH GEORGE A
IPC: G02B6/28
Filed: 1985-05-28
Abstract: This invention relates to an electrically switchable fiber optic directional coupler. Two oppositely oriented blocks of an interaction material are placed adjacent the fibers in an evanescent field coupler. Application of an electromagnetic field to the interaction material increases the refractive index of one fiber and decreases the refractive index of the other. The change in refractive indices of the blocks of the interaction material increases the propagation constant of one fiber and decreases that of the other fiber. The coupling of optical signals between the fibers may be varied between zero and 100% by controlling the aplied field to change the propagation constants between values that provide complete cross coupling of light from one fiber into the other and straight through propagation provides an electrically controllable switching action.

Title: A genetically engineered cell line for detecting infectious herpes simplex virus and method therefor
Inventor: OLIVO PAUL D
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1993-06-17
Abstract: A diagnostic assay for detecting the presence of an infectious herpes virus in a specimen and a genetically engineered cell line for use in such assay are disclosed. The cell line used in the assay expresses a reporter gene only if infectious herpes virus is present in the specimen. The assay involves inoculating a DNA-transfected cell line with a specimen suspected of containing a herpes virus, allowing a sufficient period of time for the herpes virus infectious cycle to proceed, and detecting and quantifying the number of herpes virus-infected cells to determine the number of infectious herpes virus virions in the specimen. The cell line is a DNA-transfected cell line susceptible to infection by a herpes virus which is stably transformed with a chimeric gene comprising a herpes virus inducible promoter and a gene coding for an enzyme, the expression of the enzyme being dependent upon and quantitatively proportional to the presence of herpes virus. A kit for such assay is also provided.

Title: Process of decreasing the emission of sox in the exhaust gas from sintering plants
Inventor: MAGEDANZ NORBERT
IPC: C22B1/20
Filed: 1989-12-22
Abstract: Iron oxide-containing materials and solid fuel are loaded onto a movable grid (1) and the mixture is ignited at the surface and is sintered by sucking through oxygen-containing gases. To reduce the SOx content in the waste gas, a bleed stream of the waste gas (19) having a high content of total SOx produced is taken off separately and is again passed (22) through the load in the final part of the movable grid. An SOx-binding material, for example CaO or Ca(OH)2, as a solution or powder, is added (23) to the load before or in the recycled zone of the bleed stream, which material reacts with the SOx compounds and thus removes them from the waste gas. <IMAGE>

Title: Process for the continuous bulk production of high impact vinylaromatic (co)polymers
Inventor: BUONERBA CLAUDIO
IPC: C08F279/04
Filed: 1990-05-23
Abstract: Described is a process for the continuous bulk production of high impact vinylaromatic copolymers in which a vinylaromatic monomer, an optional vinyl-cyanide comonomer, a rubber, a part of a diluent solvent and a catalyst are premixed at a temperature below 100 DEG C and fed to an agitated tubular plug-flow reactor which is divided into several stages or zones. The excess mixture is recycled to the premixer and the remaining portion of the diluent solvent is injected in the top of the reactor to prevent the formation of incrustations. In the first zone of the reactor, the temperature and the residence time of the mixture are controlled so as to halve the catalyst lifetime. The polymerization is continued in the subsequent zones of the reactor until at least 40% by weight of solids have been formed.

Title: System and method for resolving frequency and timing uncertainty in access channel acquisition in a spread spectrum communication system
Inventor: CHOCKALINGAM ANANTHANARAYANAN
IPC: H04B7/00
Filed: 1999-08-27
Abstract: A method for reducing the number of required frequency and time hypotheses to acquire an access transmission in a satellite communication system. By reducing the number of required hypotheses, the amount of hardware required to acquire the access transmission is reduced. The method of the present invention reduces the number of required hypotheses by reducing the range of possible frequency and timing values of the access transmission. The range of possible frequency and timing values is reduced by determining the frequency and time uncertainties over individual satellite beams rather than over an entire satellite footprint.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for culturing cells includes a waste removal and product concentrating loop in which waste is removed from the medium and product produced by the cells is concentrated for harvesting. The apparatus includes a reservoir (12) for retaining a supply of medium. The reservoir is in fluid communication with a cell culturing loop (14) wherein medium flows from the reservoir to the cells and back to the reservoir. The medium waste removal and concentrating loop (16) removes waste components produced by the cells and is in fluid communication with the reservoir such that medium is transferred from the reservoir to the waste removal and concentrating loop and back to the reservoir. The waste removal and concentrating loop includes a device having a semipermeable membrane (50). The medium flows along one side of the membrane for selective transfer of the waste components through the membrane. A mechanism for selectively producing a back pressure (52) in the medium is included downstream of the membrane and aids in transfer of waste components through the membrane to remove the waste components from the medium.
