Patent CA-2514148-A1 (CA)
Title: Apparatus for molding a plastic closure with air-assisted ejection technical field
Inventor: ABNEY LINDSEY N
IPC: B29C43/50
Filed: 2004-01-23
Abstract: An apparatus for molding a plastic closure includes a male mold assembly (12) including a forming pin (14) and an outer pin sleeve (16) which cooperate with a female mold (20) for defining a mold cavity (22). To facilitate mechanical stripping of a molded closure from the forming pin (14), pressurized air is introduced into the molded closure through at least one air passageway which extends axially between the forming pin (14) and pin sleeve (16). By outwardly expanding and forming the plastic closure during ejection from the forming pin, forces to which the closure is subjected during ejection are significantly reduced, thereby desirably reducing the amount of cooling of the closure that is required during the molding cycle prior to ejection.  Significantly increased operating speeds for compression molding apparatus can thus be achieved.

Title: Modified resorcinol resins and applications thereof
Inventor: DURAIRAJ RAJ B
IPC: C08G8/30
Filed: 2004-02-13
Abstract: A modified resorcinol resin is prepared by reacting a phenolic compound (e.g., resorcinol) with an olefinically unsaturated compound (e.g., styrene) and two types of aldehyde: a formaldehyde and an alkyl aldehyde (e.g., butyraldehyde).  The reaction is typically carried out in the presence of an acid catalyst. The resulting resin has a lower softening point and can be used as a methylene acceptor compound in a vulcanizable rubber composition.

Title: Polypeptides related to natriuretic peptides and methods of their identification and use
Inventor: YIP TAI-TUNG
IPC: G01N33/53
Filed: 2004-04-19
Abstract: The present invention relates to the identification and use of polypeptides that bind to antibodies directed to a desired polypeptide of interest. Using natriuretic peptides and their precursors, and in particular BNP, as an example, the present invention describes a number of natriuretic peptides fragments produced in biological samples, most preferably blood-derived samples, that bind to antibodies directed to BNP. Because production of such fragments is an ongoing process that may be a function of, inter alia, the elapsed time between onset of an event triggering natriuretic peptide release into the tissues and the time the sample is obtained or analyzed; the elapsed time between sample acquisition and the time the sample is analyzed; the type of tissue sample at issue; the storage conditions; the quantity of proteolytic enzymes present; etc., such fragments may be used when both designing an assay for one or more natriuretic peptides, and when performing such an assay, in order to provide an accurate prognostic or diagnostic result.

Patent CA-2529958-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ORMBSY WILLIAM
IPC: C02F1/48
Filed: 2005-12-13
Abstract: A device and method for the treatment of fluids using electrostatic fields generated by a high voltage electric current, which reduces or eliminates calcification, scaling and microbiological contamination. A high voltage negative DC current is applied to a core electrode, generating an electrostatic field which traverses a dielectric sleeve surrounding the core electrode and charges the exterior surface of the dielectric sleeve.  Organic and inorganic particles as well as biological contaminants which pass through the electrostatic field or contact the surface of the dielectric sleeve are then charged. Fluid flowing through the device is agitated by a combination of spiral vane sections surrounding the dielectric sleeve and helical baffle sections lining the housing wall. Charged inorganic particles coalesce into spherical aggregates which resist adhesion to pipes and vessels and can be filtered by techniques such as RO without deteriorating the filter membrane. The device can thus be used to pre-treat water so as to enhance the performance and durability of purification systems such as RO filtration systems.
