Title: Power demand management on a low voltage network with a plurality of intelligent sockets
Inventor: SINCLAIR JOHN SEAN
IPC: H02J3/14
Filed: 2012-03-29
Abstract: An electricity substation (11) receives a high voltage electricity supply and transforms it to a low voltage supply distributed to a plurality of properties (13). The substation (11) is also provided with a demand management unit (14) incorporating a load monitoring means (15) operable to measure the load on the or each low voltage supply cable (12) and each property (13) is provided with at least one intelligent socket (20) for high load appliances. The intelligent socket (20) comprises contacts (21) for making a connection with the conductors of the charging lead; a use monitor (22) operable to detect when a load (i.e. an electric vehicle) is drawn from the contacts (21); a switch (23) operable to disconnect or connect the electricity supply to the contacts; and a control unit (24). The control unit is operable to communicate with the demand management unit (14) via a suitable communications link (16). In operation, the demand management unit (14) monitors communications from each intelligent socket (20) to determine which intelligent sockets (20) are in use and the measured load on the low voltage supply cable (12). When the measured load exceeds a threshold, the demand management unit (14) enters a power rationing mode. In this mode, the demand management unit (14) sends signals to the control unit (24) of each intelligent socket (20) in use. In response to the signals the switch (23) is cyclically operated. This causes the contacts (21) (and hence the electric vehicle 18) to be cyclically disconnected and connected from the electrical supply.

Title: Probability mapping for visualisation and analysis of biomedical images
Inventor: EFTESTOL TRYGVE
IPC: G06T7/40
Filed: 2012-12-12
Abstract: The invention provides a method of image transformation of a biomedical image, said method comprising: for each voxel of said biomedical image, calculating a transform value indicative of the likelihood of that voxel representing a first tissue type (such as scar tissue); wherein calculating said transform value includes: applying at least one feature function to calculate at least one feature value from the original image voxel value for said voxel and/or from the original image voxel values of one or more voxels proximate to said voxel, said feature function or functions being capable of discriminating between said first tissue and a second tissue type (e.g. healthy tissue); and deriving said transform value from said one or more feature values. The method allows more detail to be extracted from images about the locations of scar and healthy tissue and thus facilitates diagnosis.

Title: Method and apparatus for tensile colonoscopy compression
Inventor: HATHORN JAMES P
IPC: A61B1/31
Filed: 2012-12-07
Abstract: A method and apparatus for applying pressure to the abdomen of a patient to facilitate the insertion of a colonoscope is characterized by the use of a tensile compression device in the form of an elastic band which is wrapped around the patient's abdomen and secured in place. The tension of the band is adjusted to apply a desired degree of pressure to the patient's abdomen to reduce loops in the patient's colon so that the colonoscope can be fully inserted into the colon with minimal discomfort to the patient. The ends of the device are connected together when the desired degree of tension is obtained so that constant pressure and support are provided to the patient's colon. Addition pressure can be manually applied simultaneously with the pressure from the tensile device to reduce or eliminate more distal loops in the colon.

Title: MicroRNA molecules
Inventor: LAGOS-QUINTANA MARIANA
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 2013-04-05
Abstract: F:1IDPERffMPMe.PickCmSchalo407SnIV ,aadw 11700 In Caenorhabditis elegans, lin-4 and let-7 encode 22- and 21 -nucleotide RNAs, respectively, that function as key regulators of developmental timing. Because the appearance of these short RNAs is regulated during development, they are also referred to as "small temporal RNAs" (stRNAs). We show that many more 21- and 22-nt expressed RNAs, termed microRNAs, (miRNAs), exist in invertebrates and vertebrates, and that some of these novel RNAs, similar to let-7 stRNA, are also highly conserved. This suggests that sequence-specific post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms mediated by small RNAs are more general than previously appreciated.

Title: Method for isolation of soluble polypeptides
Inventor: TANHA JAMSHID
IPC: G01N33/50
Filed: 2013-04-12
Abstract: Abstract Polypeptides with desirable biophysical properties such as solubility, stability, high expression, monomericity, binding specificity or non-aggregation, including monomeric human VHs and VLs, are identified using a high throughput method for screening polypeptides, comprising the steps of obtaining a phage display library, allowing infection of a bacterial lawn by the library phage, and identifying phage which form larger than average plaques on the bacterial lawn. Sequences of monomeric human VHs and VLs are identified, which may be useful for immunotherapy or as diagnostic agents. Multimer complexes of human VHs and VLs are also identified. The VHs and VLs identified may be used to create further libraries for identifying additional polypeptides. Further, the VHs and VLs may be subjected to DNA shuffling to select for improved biophysical properties.
