Abstract: The present invention provides a receptor protein specifically recognizing bacterial DNA having an unmethylated CpG sequence, a genomic DNA encoding it, an experimental animal model useful for examining responsiveness of a host immune cell against a bacterial infectious disease. DNA encoding a receptor protein specifically recognizing bacterial DNA having an unmethylated CpG sequence is screened by BLAST search, a number of EST clones having high homology with various TLRs is screened, these clones are used as a probe to isolate a full-length cDNA from mouse macrophage cDNA library, and the sequence of bases of the cDNA is analyzed to confirm that it is TLR9 comprising a conserved regions such as LRR and TIR regions, and then a knockout mouse is produced to confir m that TLR9 is a receptor protein of oligonucleotides having an unmethylated CpG sequenc e of bacterial DNA.

Title: System and method for attaching drilling information to three-dimensional visualizations of earth models
Inventor: SANSTROM WILLIAM C
IPC: G01V1/34
Filed: 2001-09-10
Granted: 2010-01-12
Abstract: A system and method for perceiving drilling learning through visualization i s provided. In one embodiment using three-dimensional visualization of the earth model as a foundation, a new IT development strategy focuses on perceiving "Drilling Learning" by an intuitive method. Symbols, known as "Knowledge Attachments" are attached to each wellbore trajectory displayed in the three - dimensional environment, with each symbol indicating a specific event- such as one related to drilling operatio ns or problems. A Knowledge Attachment system proves particularly useful to represent disparate data at once, in such a manner that the interdependencies between the earth model and drilling operational data are evident and correlated. Operational issues and lessons learned from prior wells are easily accessed and perceive d in the context of the earth model. By understanding this information at the beginning of the well planning process , operational efficiencies may be improved.

Abstract: Current methods for detecting influenza A subtype H5 virus, for example cell culture, haemagglutination-inhibition, fluorescent antibody and enzyme immunoassay, and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) may have the disadvantages of low sensitivity and low specificity. Furthermore, such methods are relatively difficult to use, and may not be suitable for routine detection on a daily basis. The kit for detecting H5 virus of this invention may provide a user-friendly alternative that is relatively more sensitive and specific to H5 virus. The detection kit utilizes two specially designed primers A and B for the replication of H5 virus, and a specific capture probe for immobilizing the amplified viral RNA. An additional primer C  is also designed for the detection of pathogenic H5 virus. The detection of H5 virus by the detection kit may be accomplished within one day if desired.
