Title: Methods of tangential flow filtration and an apparatus therefore
Inventor: COUTO DANIEL E
IPC: C07K1/34
Filed: 2003-08-06
Abstract: Processes and apparati are provided for separating molecules of interest from a mixture containing them which comprises subjecting the mixture to an improved method of tangential flow filtration (TFF). The improved TFF was used to clarify, and process various feedstreams for the removal of a molecule of interest. According to a preferred embodiment, a transgenic milk feedstream is stabilized and particulate matter such as fat, casein miscelles and bacteria are removed. The method of TFF used in the current invention utilizes optimized process parameters that include temperature, transmembrane pressure, cross-flow velocity, and milk concentration. Cleaning and storage procedures were also developed to ensure long membrane life. An aseptic filtration step was also developed to remove any bacteria remaining in a clarified transgenic milk feedstream.

Title: Overlapping spectrum cellular communication networks
Inventor: MCKENNA DANIEL BERNARD
IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 2005-01-06
Abstract: The overlapping spectrum cellular communication network functions to provide multiple cellular communication systems in the same spectrum as the existing NATS-based cellular communication system, while also providing wideband services to subscribers. This is accomplished by enabling two system operators to each have a dedicated 1.25 MHz slice of the NATS spectrum. However, given that there is only 2 MHz available, this results in a 0.50 MHz overlap of 1.25 MHz carriers. To mitigate the inter-network overlap and the potential for interference between the two systems, the overlapping spectrum cellular communication network swaps forward and reverse path allocations on a per system basis.
