Patent CA-2354682-A1 (CA)
Title: Method for the detection of specific nucleic acid sequences by polymerase nucleotide incorporation
Inventor: CASTRO ALONSO
IPC: C12Q1/686
Filed: 1999-12-03
Abstract: A method for rapid and efficient detection of a target DNA or RNA sequence is provided. A primer having a 3'-hydroxyl group at one end and having a sequence of nucleotides sufficiently homologous with an identifying sequence of nucleotides in the target DNA is selected. The primer is hybridized to the identifying sequence of nucleotides on the DNA or RNA sequence and a reporter molecule is synthesized on the target sequence by progressively binding complementary nucleotides to the primer, where the complementary nucleotides include nucleotides labeled with a fluorophore. Fluorescence emitted by fluorophores on single reporter molecules is detected to identify the target DNA or RNA sequence.

Title: Water-swellable hot-melt-type adhesive
Inventor: KOPANNIA SIEGFRIED
IPC: C09J123/08
Filed: 1999-12-14
Abstract: Water-swellable hot-melt adhesives based on a tackifying resin, a water-dispersible EVA wax, an ethylene/acrylic ester copolymer, a water-soluble homo- or co-polymer and a super absorber polymer powder having an average particle size of less than 80 µm display a clearly improved swelling behavior in comparison with the prior art. Furthermore, the swelling agent is significantly more homogeneously distributed in the matrix. Such hot-melt adhesives are suitable for ensuring longitudinal water impermeability in modern cable structures, as water-swellable jointing compounds in the building industry in the area of building conservation and restoration. Such hot-melt adhesives are further suitable for the manufacture of absorbent textile fabrics in the personal hygiene sector.

Patent CA-2364326-A1 (CA)
Inventor: YEO HAROLD O
IPC: B23B5/04
Filed: 2001-12-04
Abstract: An improved brake lathe station has an on-vehicle brake lathe and a lift with one or more support posts for raising a vehicle. A support structure is provided to support the lathe while allowing it to be moved with respect to a horizontal plane about the vehicle to assist the lathe operator in positioning the lathe with respect to wheel hubs of the vehicle. The lathe is preferably connected to the support structure by an adjustable coupling which allows vertically tilting a lathe rotation axis of the lathe, as well as allowing rotation of the lathe substantially about its lathe rotation axis. Preferably, the lathe can also be moved with respect to a vertical plane. To prevent transmission of vibrations during the machining process, it is preferred for the lathe to be floated with respect to the support structure while the lathe is mounted on the wheel hub. The coupling can be designed to allow attaching a dolly to the lathe while it is still supported by the support structure, and to allow the lathe thereafter to be released from the support structure so the lathe can be moved on the dolly.

Abstract: A recording and/or reproducing apparatus for a magneto-optical recording medium housed within a disc cartridge includes a casing, a recording and/or reproducing unit, a transporting unit and a driving unit. The casing includes an opening for introducing and ejecting the disc cartridge. The recording and/or reproducing unit includes a magnetic head for applying a perpendicular magnetic field on the magneto-optical recording medium and is housed within the casing. The transporting unit loads the disc cartridge inserted via the opening on the recording and/or reproducing unit. The transporting unit includes a holding section for holding the inserted disc cartridge and a pair of cam members for moving the holding section in the horizontal direction in the casing and in the vertical direction in the casing in continuation to the movement in the horizontal direction. The driving unit causes the cam members to be moved in the horizontal direction in the casing.      The cam members are moved in a first direction as a result of insertion of the disc cartridge and set the driving unit into operating states as a result of insertion of the disc cartridge.      The cam members cause the holding section to be moved in the horizontal direction by a movement of the cam members in a second horizontal direction consecutive to the movement in the first horizontal direction by the driving unit. The cam members cause the holding section to be loaded on the recording and/or reproducing unit by a movement of the cam members in a third horizontal direction consecutive to the movement in the second horizontal direction by the driving unit.

Title: Travel direction device and travel warning direction device
Inventor: TAKEZAKI MANABU
IPC: G01C21/36
Filed: 2002-02-19
Abstract: The present invention provides a travel direction device in which a user can listen to voice directions or warning voice direction about a traveling route. The travel direction device according to the present invention sets a direction about the traveling route, and if the user drives the same traveling route a plurality of times, the direction is given less frequently than a number of times the user drives the traveling route.      Accordingly, the voice direction is not given all the time, thus not annoying for the user who uses the same route repeatedly.      Consequently, the user would not turn off the voice direction function itself, and thus, the voice direction function can be used effectively.

Title: Method for avoiding mechanical damage of pulp
Inventor: SVEDMAN MIKAEL
IPC: D21C9/00
Filed: 2000-05-22
Abstract: A method for producing chemical pulp from cellulosic material by means of alkaline cooking, including cooking the material to pulp at cooking temperature in a digester, reducing the temperature at the end of the cook, substantially relieving the overpressure in the digester and then discharging the pulp from the digester by means of pumping. The method is characterized in that the pulp is cooled to essentially 85 °C to 70 °C before pumping cooked material as a fluid suspension from the digester, and that the temperature of the cooked material is maintained in the same temperature range and at a pH level being between 10 and 13, between the digester and a first delignification/bleaching stage, thus avoiding mechanical damage of cellulosic material.
