Inventor: HIRSCH LUCIAN
IPC: H04Q7/34
Filed: 2000-11-07
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a communication system for managing a communication network. The aim of the invention is to provide a method with which communication networks can be automatically tested from a superordinate producer--independently managing network management center (NMC), for example at times when subordinate, producer-specific operation and maintenance centers (OMC) are not occupied. To this end, at least one producer-dependent information is transmitted when an alarm report is sent and producer-specific hardware tests are automatically generated in the network management center. The information model of the OMC-NMC interface does not have to be familiar with the producer-specific object classes. The tests automatically generated in the network management center NMC can be triggered specifically, that is when errors of a certain hardware board have occurred, or preventively, for example for the entire hardware of a network unit.

Patent CA-2661642-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WHITE THOMAS
IPC: B01D57/02
Filed: 2007-08-27
Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for trapping, releasing and/or separating sample components in solution passing through a channel with or without packing material present by passing ion current through the channel driven by an electric field. A portion of the ion current comprises cation and/or anion species generated from second solution flows separated from the sample solution flow path by semipermeable membranes. Cation and/or Anion ion species generated in the second solution flow regions are transferred into the sample solution flow path through ion selective semipermeable membranes. Ion current moving along the sample solution flow path is controlled by varying the composition of the second solutions and/or changing the voltage between membrane sections for a given sample solution composition. The sample composition may also be varied separately or in parallel to enhance trapping, release and/or separation efficiency and range. The invention when interfaced to an Atmospheric Pressure Ion Source, that may include Electrospray Ionization, with mass spectrometric analysis enables independent control of the on-line sample separation process and the Atmospheric Pressure Ion Source or Electrospray ionization processes.

Patent CA-2665920-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MEHLER KLAUS-DIETER
IPC: C02F1/50
Filed: 2007-10-02
Abstract: The invention relates to the production and use of novel bioactive devices and metallic coatings for example for sterilizing, disinfecting, and decontaminating water or aqueous solutions. The known oligodynamic effect of silver for reducing the amount of germs is thereby improved and increased by combining silver with ruthenium and a vitamin or derivative thereof. The novel properties of these bioactive metal surfaces lead to faster and more efficient killing of microorganisms. Simultaneously, these novel bioactive metal surfaces prevent infestation by microorganisms and attachment or permanent deposition of problematic biomolecules such as for example DNA, RNA, or proteins. A self-cleaning surface is thus obtained, which very quickly and efficiently and over extended periods of time sterilizes water and aqueous solutions when they come in contact with said surface.

Patent CA-2668294-A1 (CA)
Title: Method of making ketals and acetals
Inventor: SELIFONOV SERGEY
IPC: C07D265/06
Filed: 2008-10-07
Abstract: The reaction of alcohols with oxocarboxylates to form acetals or ketals is catalyzed by unexpectedly low levels of protic acids. By employing low acid catalyst levels compared to amounts conventionally used, rapid formation of acetal or ketal is facilitated while the formation of oxocarboxylate esters is minimized. Further employing a significant molar excess of oxocarboxylate in conjunction with low acid catalyst level gives rise to the rapid and clean formation of acetals and ketals from oxocarboxylates and alcohols.
Patent CA-2669338-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NORTON JEFF
IPC: B01D69/12
Filed: 2007-06-13
Abstract: The present invention relates to the production of filter membranes (10) and in particular to multilayered filters. The invention related to a method of producing a filter membrane (10) wherein at least two layers (12, 14) are sequentially built upon a forming member (18) such that, when the forming member (18) is removed, the resultant membrane (10) includes a plurality of apertures extending therethrough, and at least some of said apertures increase in cross-sectional area from a first surface of the membrane to a second surface of the membrane. The method of production reduces the risk of permanent plugging from particulates being trapped within the membrane itself and has strong bonds between the layers which reduce the risk of separation of the layers. The present method produces an even coverage of the forming member (18) which in turn results in a layer of uniform thickness. The layer can be controlled by changing the viscosity of the mixture into which the former (18) is dipped.
