Patent CA-2201712-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SINGH PRATAP
IPC: C07K17/08
Filed: 1996-08-09
Abstract: Compositions are disclosed, comprising dendrimers to which a first polypeptide is controllably coupled. Such polypeptide-dentrimer compositions are effective for controllably coupling a second polypeptide to the dendrimer. The first and second polypeptides have separate and distinct defined biological activities, for example, two antibodies with first and second binding specificities or an antibody and an enzymatic label. Such compositions are useful as indicators in specific binding assays, e.g., immunoassays. Methods for sequentially coupling two different polypeptides to a dendrimer to form compositions of the invention also are disclosed.

Patent CA-2203801-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ALBERTSEN MARC C
IPC: C07K14/415
Filed: 1994-10-28
Abstract: Nucleotide sequences mediating male fertility in plants are described, with DNA molecule and amino acid sequences set forth. Use of the nucleotide sequences to mediate fertility in plants is also described. In one such method, an inducible promoter is used to regulate expression of the DNA  molecule. The control sequences are modified so that it is normally "off" and as a result the plants are male sterile. When it is desired to reproduce the male sterile plants, male fertility is restored by treating the plants with a non-phytotoxic chemical which induces expression of the critical gene.
Patent CA-2204414-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RYLES LOUIS
IPC: B01D29/62
Filed: 1995-11-06
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un appareil de filtrage de liquide (10) comprenant une chambre (11) contenant une membrane filtrante (55). La membrane filtrante (55) est couplée à une vanne (27) régulant le débit du fluide via un conduit d'amenée (21). En filtrage normal, le liquide est envoyé par la vanne (27) dans une partie (59) de la chambre (11) de sorte qu'il traverse la membrane filtrante (55). Lorsque la pression dans cette partie de chambre (59) augmente du fait de l'obstruction de la membrane (55) par des débris, la membrane (55) applique une force sur la vanne (27) de sorte que l'amenée de liquide dans la chambre (11) soit inversée et qu'un écoulement en sens inverse du liquide au travers de la membrane (55) soit induit et permette de nettoyer celle-ci.

Patent CA-2216673-A1 (CA)
Title: Dual connection ep brake system
Inventor: BEZOS ANGEL P
IPC: B60T13/66
Filed: 1997-09-24
Abstract: A dual connection system is used with an electrical apparatus having power and return lines each of which requiring interconnection between parts of the apparatus. The system includes a connector at each end of each part through which the parts interconnect serially. Each connector has a pair of bidirectional circuits each of which interconnecting a main node and a backup node for each such line on a part such that one main node affixes to the power line and the other main node affixes to the return line. When a pair of connectors are mated, the main nodes affixed to the power line communicate as a primary path and the backup nodes corresponding thereto communicate as a redundant path. Likewise, the main nodes affixed to the return line communicate as a primary path and the backup nodes corresponding thereto communicate as a redundant path. Each redundant path provides backup to its corresponding primary path thereby providing the apparatus with more reliable electrical connections. The system includes a control device in each part that during a test mode tests the integrity of the primary and redundant paths located between the part on which the device is situated and a previous part. The system further includes a central computer that controls each control device so each pair of mated connectors is tested sequentially during the test mode and that receives from each control device results of the testing and that reports the results to an operator of the apparatus.

Title: Interface layer for navigation system
Inventor: KILLEY GRANT S
IPC: G09B29/00
Filed: 1997-10-23
Abstract: An improved method and system that provides for a data access interface layer in a navigation system. The navigation system is of the type that includes a navigation application software program that provides navigating features to a user of the system and a geographic database stored on a computer-readable storage medium wherein the geographical database includes information relating to the geographical region about which the navigation system provides the navigation features to the user. The data access interface layer is preferably stored in the navigation system as a library of software functions. The data access interface layer operates in conjunction with the navigation system application software. The data access interface layer isolates the navigation application software from the geographic data which are stored on the storage medium. The data access interface layer intercepts requests by the navigation application software for geographic data. The data access interface layer retrieves geographic data from the storage medium and converts the data into a format usable by the navigation application software. The data access interface layer also provides for memory management that facilitates accessing and using geographic data from the particular storage medium quickly and efficiently. By recognizing that different media types have different physical formats, the data access interface layer accommodates and isolates the differences so that the portions of the data access interface layer that interact with the navigation application software can be generic.

Title: Low-profile composite material bedding foundation system
Inventor: CONSTANTINESCU EUGEN
IPC: A47C23/02
Filed: 1996-06-05
Abstract: A low-profile composite material bedding foundation system and methods of manufacture and assembly uses spring modules (16) made of molded composite materials and supported by inner frame members (22). The low-profile of the spring modules, and the composite material spring property of return to uncompressed state from total depth deflection without set, greatly decreases the height of the bedding foundation (10) in which the spring modules are attached directly to foundation frame members (18, 20, 21). The small size and simple geometry of the spring modules is especially suited for flexible arrangement and automated assembly of low-profile foundations.

Title: Dna polymerase of gamma herpes viruses associated with kaposi's sarcoma and retroperitoneal fibromatosis
Inventor: STRAND KURT
IPC: C12N1/19
Filed: 1996-07-12
Abstract: This invention provides isolated polynucleotides encoding DNA polymerases of three members of a subfamily of gamma herpes viruses. Two were obtained from macaque monkeys affected with retroperitoneal fibromatosis, the other from human AIDS patients affected with Kaposi's sarcoma. A 454-base pair fragment encoding a region near the active site of the DNA polymerase is 69-83 %  identical amongst the three viruses, but only 54-68 % identical with other known gamma herpes sequences and < 55 % identical with alpha and beta herpes sequences. Also provided are ploynucleotides encoding DNA polymerase from related viruses in the RFHV/KSHV subfamily. Polynucleotides prepared according to the sequence data can be used as reagents to detect and characterize related sequences. Such reagents may be used to detect members of the RFHV/KSHV subfamily, including but not limited to RFHV, RFHV2, and KSHV.  Corresponding polypeptides and peptide fragments may be obtained by expressing the polynucleotide or by chemical synthesis. They may be used for detecting specific antibody potentially present in the serum of infected subjects. They may also be used for designing or screening pharmaceutical compounds that limit viral replication by inhibiting DNA polymerase activity.
Patent CA-2230781-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DEMARCO GIUSEPPE

Filed: 1998-02-27
Abstract: A locking mechanism used to secure any number of window sashes closed against a window frame includes one or more keepers mounted to the window sash, and a tie bar having thereon a corresponding number of rollers, and an actuator assembly mounted to the window frame. The actuator assembly is configured to reciprocally move the tie bar and includes a housing and a handle lever and actuator arm pivotally mounted to the housing. A camming pin is coupled to the handle lever so that the rotation of the handle lever rotates the camming pin along an arc of a circle centered on the handle pivot. The pin extends into a slot formed in the actuator arm remote from an end coupled to the tie bar. As the camming pin moves along its arcuate path, its engagement with the slot urges the actuator arm in pivotal movement which in turn moves the tie bar.
