Title: A method for forming metal matrix composites having variable loadings and products produced thereby
Inventor: AGHAJANIAN MICHAEL KEVORK
IPC: C04B41/88
Filed: 1989-11-09
Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel method for forming metal matrix composite bodies and novel products produced by the method. Particularly, a permeable mass of filler material or a preform (1) has included therein at least some matrix metal powder. Moreover, an infiltration enhancer and/or an infiltration enhancer precursor and/or an infiltrating atmosphere are in communication with the filler material or a preform (1), at least at some point during the process, which permits molten matrix metal to spontaneously infiltrate the filler material or preform (1). The presence of powdered matrix metal in the preform (1) or filler material reduces the relative volume fraction of filler material to matrix metal.

Title: Compositions and diagnostic methods using monoclonal antibodies against CD44v6
Inventor: JALKANEN SIRPA
IPC: C07K14/705
Filed: 1994-06-20
Abstract: CD44 is a family of glycoproteins involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. In addition to the major 90 kD form present on most hematopoietic cells, larger forms are found on keratinocytes and carcinoma cell lines. These bigger isoforms of CD44 arise by alternative splicing that results in insertion of one or more of the "variant" exons into the extracellular part of the 90 kD constant form of the molecule. Antibodies were raised against a synthetic peptide containing a sequence encoded by the human exon 6A mAb thus obtained (designated Var3.1) strongly reacted with the plasma membranes of squamous cells in upper layers of skin and tonsil surface epithelia. Weaker staining was seen in germinal centers, vascular endothelia and enterocytes. CD44v6 was absent from tissue leukocytes and connective tissue components. In comparison, Hermes-3 epitope (on the constant part) containing forms of CD44 were preferentially localized in basal layers of epithelia, present on the surface of most leukocytes and connective tissue cells, and undetectable on the luminal surface of high endothelial venules. In benign neoplasms, epithelial cells stained with mAb Var3.1 like in normal tissues. In contrast, immunostaining of 30 squamous carcinoma specimens (both primary and metastatic lesions) revealed that malignant transformation resulted in down-regulation or disappearance of Var3.1 epitope, but in majority of cases, not in diminished expression of the Hermes-3 epitope. An examination of serum samples from normal individuals and from patients with inflammatory diseases indicated that CD44v6 was increased in samples from patients with rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract: It has been discovered microparticles formed from natural or synthetic polymer with thicker walls have significantly enhanced echogenicity as compared with microparticles having thinner walls. The effect of wall thickness has been determined experimentally as well as inserted into a formula for use in predicting the optimum conditions. In the preferred embodiment, the polymers are synthetic biodegradable polymers and the wall thickness is between about 100 and 660 nm, although wall thicknesses from about 20 nm to in excess of 500 nm can be used. The microparticles are manufactured with a diameter suitable for the targeted tissue to be imaged, for example, with a diameter of between 0.5 and 8 microns for intravascular administration, and a diameter of between 0.5 and 5 mm for oral administration for imaging of the gastrointestinal tract or other lumens. Preferred polymers are polyhydroxy acids such as polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid, polylactide or polyglycolide, most preferably conjugated to polyethylene glycol or other materials inhibiting uptake by the reticuloendothelial system (RES). The microspheres may be used in a variety of ultrasound imaging applications including cardiology applications, blood perfusion applications as well as for organ and peripheral vein imaging.

Title: Mobile radio communication system
Inventor: RAYNE MARK WENTWORTH
IPC: H04W12/00
Filed: 2001-03-30
Granted: 2002-10-09
Abstract: In a mobile radio communications system comprising mobile radio units and a fixed infrastructure including a key management controller for managing the encryption keys used for secure communication, each mobile radio unit is provided with means which enable the user or the unit itself to initiate deletion of an encryption key, eg as a consequence of tamper detection or perceived threat to the user, and also with means which are capable of sending a key deletion report (which may be a deletion initiated, deletion successfully completed and/or deletion unsuccessful report) to the key management controller. On the basis of received report(s) from a unit, the system can determine whether an encryption key has been deleted successfully and only discard a key on the likelihood that it has been compromised. The key deletion reports can be pre-encrypted using the current encryption key in that unit and then sent on successful deletion of that key; acknowledgements back from the management controller can also be verified against pre-encrypted expected acknowledgements even after deletion of that key. Time lags in reporting deletions can also be used to assess likelihood of a key being compromised.

Title: Radio systems
Inventor: NAYLOR MICHAEL
IPC: H04L1/00
Filed: 1982-12-08
Granted: 1986-10-08
Abstract: A radio system employs a method of controlling the transmitted power of a radio signal such that a minimum power level for efficient reception is maintained. Data is simultaneously transmitted between two radio stations using an error correction code. Each block of the code is accompanied by a power bit. The transmitted power bit is set high or low in dependence upon whether the number of errors in a sample of received blocks, as determined by processing of the received code, is equal to, above or below a predetermined threshold value. At the other station the received power bit is directed to a power control device and used to adjust the output power of the transmitter of that station by continuously variable slope delta demodulation.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP93/01435 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 10, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 10, 1995 PCT Filed Jun. 7, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/25706 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 23, 1993Nucleic acid analogues such as peptide-nucleic acids (PNAs) which hybridize strongly to nucleic acids are used to inhibit nucleic acid amplification procedures such as PCR. False positives in subsequent PCR assays are prevented by hybridizing a PNA to PCR amplification products. Assays capable of discriminating between single base mutants are conducted by using a PNA hybridizing to one of the two allelic forms to inhibit a PCR amplification of that form selectively. Asymmetric PCR amplifications are carried out by starting a PCR symmetrically using like quantities of forward and reverse primers, and, once the amplification is established, disabling one primer by hybridizing a PNA thereto.
