Abstract: This invention relates to functional gene arrays of yeast. Novel aspects include the individual yeast cells, methods for making the yeast and the arrays, the arrays and uses for the arrays. A diploid bearing special genetic properties has been constructed to facilitate cloning of heterologous genes capable of providing essential functions. A selection method, using this strain allows the identification haploid yeast strains dependent for life on heterologous essential genes. The arrays of these strains comprise a library of unique members where each member is dependent for survival on the function of a heterologous gene complementing a different essential host gene which has been inactivated by the insertion of a dominant selectable marker. These arrays provide screening platforms for agents that specifically target the activity of these heterologous genes.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for delivery of a drug or compound (25) into a fluid flowing within a tube or catheter (20). In one embodiment a catheter includes an inner surface coated with a polymer matrix (55) such as a hydrogel. The hydrogel includes captured within it a therapeutic agent (65). The method of capture may be by various means, including photolabile bonds between the therapeutic agent (65) and the hydrogel (55). The therapeutic agent (65) is released from the hydrogel (55) by the application of energy to the hydrogel (55), such as by laser emitting wavelength (35) which resonates and breaks the photolabile bond. The released therapeutic agent (65) diffuses out of the hydrogel (55) into the liquid flowing within a lumen (60) of the catheter (20).

Abstract: A technique for encoding a signal used in a digital communication system in which individual traffic channel data rates may be adapted to specific channel conditions. In particular, a forward error correction coding rate is adapted for individual channels while at the same time maintaining a fixed block size independent of the FEC coding rate. This allows the system data rate to adapt to the channel conditions experienced by a specific user. Thus, users experiencing good communication conditions with low multipath distortion may be allocated higher capacity, whereas users with significant multipath distortion may make use of lower rate (higher levels of coding) error codes to maintain high quality. Messages are sent from a transmitter to a receiver to inform the receiver of the coding rate implemented at any given point in time. These parameters may be adjusted independent of tranmitted power level through the expedient of ensuring that size of a transmitted frame remains constant, while permitting the ability to changeFEC coding rates and FEC block sizes.

Abstract: The rotating bolt (9) is assembled in the seat (3) of the joint bush (1), so that its tooth (309) projects perpendicularly into the cavity or female (U) of the bush itself. The tooth (309) is characterized by a wedge-shaped outline, with a lower inclined plane which in the phase of the insertion of the bush female onto the male (M) of the joint bracket (12), co-operates with said male which makes it move back, even because said bolt is assembled in its own seat so to be able in case of need to perform an oscillation and/or a translation allowing said tooth to move away from the female of the joint, in contrast with the action of elastic means (6). In the phase of insertion of the bush onto the joint bracket, the bolt (9) tooth is then able to automatically snap into the seat (15) of the male (M). The bolt (9) is provided on the opposite ends with carvings (10, 10') in order, in case of need, to be rotated by means of a tool inserted through an hole (16) of the base of the bracket (12) or through a hole (11) open on the upper face of the plane (R) having the bush (1) of the joint. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides experimentally-generated cold-adapted equine influenza viruses, and reassortant influenza A viruses comprising at least one genome segment of such an equine influenza virus, wherein the equine influenza virus genome segment confers at least one identifying phenotype of the cold-adapted equine influenza virus, such as cold-adaptation, temperature sensitivity, dominant interference, or attenuation. Such viruses are formulated into therapeutic compositions to protect animals from diseases caused by influenza A viruses, and in particular, to protect horses from disease caused by equine influenza virus. The present invention also includes methods to protect animals from diseases caused by influenza A virus or other infectious agents utilizing the claimed therapeutic compositions. Such methods include using a therapeutic composition as a vaccine to generate a protective immune response in an animal prior to exposure to an infectious agent, as well as using a therapeutic composition as a treatment for an animal that has been recently infected with an infectious agent leading to respiratory disease, or is likely to be subsequently exposed to such an agent in a few days whereby the therapeutic composition reduces such respiratory disease, even in the absence of antibody-mediated immunity. The present invention also provides methods to produce cold-adapted equine influenza viruses, and reassortant influenza A viruses having at least one genome segment of an equine influenza virus generated by cold-adaptation.
