Inventor: OSEGOVIC JOHN P
IPC: C07C9/04
Filed: 2009-11-04
Abstract: The invention relates to using gas hydrate to separate specific gases from a gas mixture. In particular, compound hydrate is formed from a mixed gas feedstock to concentrate one or more desired gas species in the hydrate phase and the remainder in the gas phase. The hydrate is then separated from the gas phase and dissociated to pro-duce a gas stream concentrated in the desired species.    Ad-ditives that accelerate the growth of hydrate and a defoam-ing agent are added to change the rate of reaction and elim-inate hard to break foam produced by the catalyst to en-hance total throughput through the process. The addition of some materials can result in changes in the density of the hydrate product, which can be useful for optimizing the separation of hydrate from unreacted liquid and/or rejected gas.

Abstract: In an engine control system for an aircraft diesel engine for a propeller aircraft for controlling the injection valves, charge pressure valves, common rail pressure valves and propeller control valves actuated by non-redundant actuators, comprising a plurality of sensors and a regulating device connected thereto and to the actuators, two engine control units - first and second - which are each connected to a first and a second power supply and are each connected to the sensors, are provided and are interconnected by way of a serial bus and can be connected selectively to the actuators by way of relays that are supplied with power together with the first engine control unit. The two engine control units each have a diagnostic function for calculating the respective health levels (A  and B), which are determined by the defects detected, can be exchanged by way of the serial bus and are compared to one another. If the health level (A) of the first engine control unit is below the health level (B) of the second engine control unit, the power supply to the relay is interrupted, so that the second engine control unit is automatically connected to the actuators by way of the relays that have released, and consequently a redundant engine control system for an aircraft diesel engine is created. The core of the invention is the automatically switchable connection of the two engine control units communicating with one another via relays depending on the calculated health level.

Title: Live attenuated influenza virus vaccines comprising microrna response elements
Inventor: TENOEVER BENJAMIN
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 2010-03-08
Abstract: The invention is directed to novel live attenuated influenza virus (LAN) vaccines comprising one or more microRNA  (miRNA) Response Element(s) (MRE) within an influenza virus genome. The MREs useful for the present invention can be derived from any miRNA which is highly expressed in influenza-targeted cells of an animal in need of vaccination but are not expressed or are expressed at very low levels in species (e.g., embryonated chicken eggs) or cell lines used for a large-scale vaccine production. This allows efficient vaccine production but renders the vaccine virus susceptible to attenuation in the influenza-targeted cells of vaccinated animals expressing a cognate miRNA.
