Patent CA-2489685-A1 (CA)
Title: Polymerisation d'hydrogels consistant a modifier des composes de sorte qu'ils contiennent une faible quantite de monomeres et de sous-produits residuels et de maniere a optimiser les proprietes du materiau
Inventor: GOLDMAN STEPHEN A
IPC: C08F20/04
Filed: 2003-06-20
Abstract: L'invention concerne des hydrogels polymérisés et des procédés de fabrication de tels hydrogels, notamment des adhésifs d'hydrogel capable de se fixer à la peau humaine et pouvant être utilisés dans divers produits de soin, tels que des articles de gestion des déchets, et une variété d'articles fonctionnels portés par des êtres humains. Les hydrogels décrits dans cette invention sont caractérisés en ce qu'ils contiennent une faible quantité de monomères d'impuretés et/ou de sous-produits de base résiduels pouvant être formés au cours de la polymérisation. Plus particulièrement, les hydrogels sont fabriqués par ajout d'épurateurs et/ou d'un agent de transfert de chaîne avant la polymérisation. On a découvert, que lorsque des épurateurs sont ajoutés, les propriétés du matériau d'hydrogel polymérisé diffèrent des propriétés de gels polymérisés sans épurateur. Ceci est dû à ce que ces épurateurs spécifiques agissent également en tant qu'agents de transfert de chaîne dans la polymérisation radicale. D'autres études ont démontré que les agents de transfert de chaîne, qui ne sont pas des épurateurs pour un/des monomère(s), des impuretés ou des sous-produits résiduels ont une influence sur les propriétés du matériau de l'adhésif d'hydrogel polymérisé.
Patent CA-2494202-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VANDENBERG JOHN L
IPC: D06Q1/10
Filed: 2003-06-10
Abstract: A transfer film configured for transferring optical beads to a substrate is disclosed. The transfer film typically contains optical beads (68), a temporary bead carrier layer (62) retaining the optical beads, and an option al adhesive layer (74) configured to permanently adhere the optical beads to a substrate. The temporary bead carrier layer contains a carrier backing (64) and a heat-resistant carrier coating (66) that temporarily holds the beads during application at elevated temperatures to a substrate. The carrier coating is formed such that it initially softens to retain the beads, but is then hardened or thermoset (such as by crosslinking) to prevent the carrier coating from softening during transfer of the beads to a substrate.

Title: Surface modification of castings
Inventor: LIU XING YANG
IPC: B22D19/14
Filed: 2005-03-14
Abstract: A method of modifying a surface of a casting involves providing a casting mould; placing a perforated mask with the mould to define a masked area of the mould; spray-coating the masked area of the mould with a coating material selected for forming a surface layer on the casting; introducing a liquid casting material to the mould; and, solidifying the liquid casting material to form a surface modified casting.

Title: Personal activity sensor and locator device
Inventor: WEGNER JUERGEN WERNER
IPC: G08B25/10
Filed: 2005-08-08
Abstract: A rescue device has a motion detector and a transceiver that operates either to transmit a locating signal, which can be tracked by others, or to receive and track a locating signal transmitted by another. A control logic circuit suppresses transmission of the locating signal by the transceiver unless a motion signal, generated by the motion detector responsive to the user's movement, indicates that the user has not moved for a predetermined time interval. Thus, the rescue device can transmit the locating signal when the user is motionless, providing notice that the user is immobile and aiding others in locating the user. When the receiver is operating, it guides the user in locating the source of a transmitted locating signal to aid the user in locating an immobilized person or a building exit. An override can be provided to allow transmission of the locating signal regardless of movement.

Title: Multifunctional biomaterials as scaffolds for electronic, optical, magnetic, semiconducting, and biotechnological applications
Inventor: NAM KI TAE
IPC: C12Q1/70
Filed: 2004-10-15
Abstract: One-dimensional ring structures from M13 viruses were constructed by two genetic modifications encoding binding peptides and synthesis of a heterobifunctional linker molecule. The bifunctional viruses displayed an anti-streptavidin peptide and hexahistidine peptide at opposite ends of the virus as pIII and pIX fusions. Stoichiometric addition of the streptavidin-NiNTA  linker molecule led to the reversible formation of virus-based nanorings with circumferences corresponding to lengths of the packagable DNAs. These virus-based ring structures can be further engineered to nucleate inorganic materials and form metallic, magnetic, or semiconductor nanorings using trifunctionalized viruses.
