Title: Die cushion device for press machine
Inventor: SOMUKAWA MINORU
IPC: B21D24/02
Filed: 2006-01-17
Abstract: A die cushion device for a press machine, where a discharge opening of a liquid hydraulic pump/motor is directly connected to a pressure chamber on the cushion pressure production side of a liquid hydraulic cylinder and the torque of a rotating shaft of the liquid hydraulic pump/motor is controlled to control the pressure (die cushion pressure) of the pressure chamber on the cushion pressure production side. The construction enables the die cushion pressure to be controlled with good follow-up performance in response to a die cushion pressure command and also enables occurrence of surge pressure to be prevented. Further, the die cushion device has excellent energy efficiency because energy required for die cushioning that a cushion pad receives when die cushioning of the press machine is effected is recovered as electric energy through the liquid hydraulic cylinder, liquid hydraulic pump/motor, and electric motor.

Title: Reporter hepatocytes and other cells for drug screening and toxicity testing
Inventor: WOLF C ROLAND
IPC: C12N5/10
Filed: 2006-06-22
Abstract: This invention provides a system for rapid determination of pharmacologic effects on target tissue types in cell populations cultured in vitro. The cells contain a promoter-reporter construct that reflects a toxicologic or metabolic change caused by the agent being screened. The promoter is taken from a gene known to be up- or down-regulated according to the metabolic state of the cell, and linked to a reporter gene that provides an external signal for monitoring promoter activity. The promoter-reporter cells may be produced by placing these genetic alterations into a line of human embryonic stem cells, bulking up the cells to any extent desired, and then differentiating the cells into the desired tissue type. This disclosure explains some of the powerful features of the promoter-reporter cells of this invention, and shows various ways the skilled reader can use the invention for pharmaceutical development and testing, or to monitor graft survival.

Title: Reduction of chemical noise in a maldi mass spectrometer by in-trap photodissociation of matrix cluster ions
Inventor: KOVTOUN VIATCHESLAV V
IPC: B01D59/44
Filed: 2006-08-11
Abstract: A MALDI mass spectrometer includes a radiation source, such as a gas or solid state laser, that emits a beam of radiation (typically in the UV or IR  wavelengths) directed along the central axis of a linear ion trap in which analyte ions and matrix cluster ions are confined. The radiation beam has a wavelength that is strongly absorbed by the matrix cluster ions. The absorption of radiation by the matrix cluster ions produces dissociation of the matrix cluster ion into fragments having mass-to-charge ratios that lie below a mass-to-charge ratio range of interest. Thus, chemical noise associated with matrix cluster ions is reduced or eliminated.
