Title: Immunoassays using casein coating of particles
Inventor: NI WEI-CHAO
IPC: G01N33/53
Filed: 2000-01-26
Abstract: It has been found that casein and salts of casein are useful as replacements for, or in addition to, BSA as materials for coating solid phases, particularly magnetic particles, used in immunoassays and other binding assays for separation of the desired analyte. By using casein, immunoassays having improved stability and fewer discordant samples have been developed. Casein used at a concentration of 0.05-4.0 grams per gram of paramagnetic particle (optimally approximately 0.78-1.2 grams of casein per gram of magnetic particle) has been found to confer this benefit. In addition, a process for coating solid phases has been invented, said process comprising the mixing of casein with 15 magnetic particles at 30-60° C. for 5-180 hours, said process resulting in casein-coated paramagnetic particles which either (1) already have combined therewith active ingredients needed in the binding assay or (2) are capable of reacting with active ingredients needed in the binding assay. Furthermore, a process for using the casein-coated paramagnetic particles has been developed, said particles being directly or indirectly combined with active ingredients used in the immunoassays.

Title: Hot plate welding system
Inventor: WEBER WOLFGANG
IPC: B29C65/18
Filed: 1999-03-23
Abstract: The invention disclosed hereunder is a process and a device for the preparation and formation of a plastic weld connection between a workpiece (13) and a second component to be attached thereto by heating by means of a heating device (12). If force is applied, the heating element (12) tends to deform the contact surface especially in the case of hollow, thin-walled workpieces such as plastic containers. So far, methods were disclosed for the measuring of the degree of deformation by means of a sensor, subsequently readjusting the position of the heating device according to the determined deformation. The invention disclosed here under dispenses with any measurement of deformation, instead using an elastic element which automatically readjusts the position of the heating element (12) in the case of deformation of the workpiece (13) to effect a pre-load between the heating device (12) positioned at the contact surface of the work-piece (13) and the workpiece (13).

Title: Toy motorcycle configurable as a hovercycle
Inventor: HIPPELY KEITH A
IPC: A63H33/00
Filed: 2001-01-18
Abstract: A toy motorcycle body supports a pair of front-to-back extending chassis shafts in a pivotal attachment. A front wheel and a rear wheel are each formed of respective wheel halves and supported by the pivotable chassis shafts. The chassis shafts each support respective lever cams which cooperate with a pivotally supported lever actuated by the user. The chassis shafts also support a pair of spring cams which cooperate with a return spring. The action of the spring upon the spring cams pivots the chassis shafts to place the front and rear wheel halves together configuring the toy motorcycle as a conventional motorcycle. The manipulation of the pivotally supported lever by the user overcomes the spring force and pivots the chassis shafts so as to move the respective wheel halves to a split outwardly extending configuration to mimic a hovering device.

Patent AU-3374789-A (AU)
Title: Acoustic range finding system
Inventor: WOODWARD STEVEN J
IPC: G01S7/52
Filed: 1989-04-28
Abstract: Acoustic level sensing apparatus is provided, in which pulses of acoustic energy are transmitted by an electrically energized transducer towards a surface to be sensed, and the electrical output from the transducer following the pulse received by a receiver is digitized and analyzed by a programmed microprocessor to detect a return echo from the surface, so as to produce a digitized echo profile. The digitized echo profile is enhanced by removing narrow peaks likely to correspond with certain types of spurious echo (REMOVE_NARROW_ECHOES_F0), and narrow valleys which may represent fragmentation of a wanted echo (REFORM_FRAGMENTED_ECHOES_F0). Echoes are identified by comparing the profile with a time varying threshold generated derived from a linear regression performed on part of the echo profile (TVT_IN_F2), various different types of comparison being performed and their results combined (ALF_ALGORITHM) prior to selecting the most likely true echo on the basis of the combined results (SELECT_BEST_ECHO_FROM_FILE_3).

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/US93/00228 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 30, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 30, 1994 PCT Filed Jan. 11, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/00228 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 11, 1993A peptide linkage unit is employed for joining peptide and pseudopeptide sequences, including peptides and pseudopeptides that inhibit aspartic proteinase enzymes. The peptide linkage unit includes a phosphinate methylene ammonium linkage in place of a peptidyl carboxamide bond. If the peptide linkage unit is incorporated into a peptide sequence that would otherwise serve as an aspartic proteinase substrate and if it is positioned at a cleavage site within such peptide sequence, the phosphinate methylene ammonium linkage is resistant to cleavage and serves as an exploding transition state analog of such cleavage site. When so incorporated, the phosphinate methylene ammonium linkage can bind or interfere with the active site of aspartic proteinase enzymes and inhibit its activity. Preferred inhibitors contain a phosphinic acid methylene amine group joining the P1 and P1' residues and have a length of 3 to about 15 amino acid residues.

Abstract: In one aspect of the present invention there is provided a method for determining the risk of developing a complication of preterm birth in a patient born before 40 weeks of gestation or weighing 10% less than the average for the patient's gestational age. The method involves measuring serum IGF-I and/or IGF-I binding protein levels after birth of the patient to obtain an IGF-I or IGF-I binding protein level; and correlating said IGF-I or IGF-I binding protein level with an in utero baseline level of IGF-I or IGF-I binding protein based on gestational age matched mean levels in utero, wherein an IGF-I or IGF-I binding protein level below the mean gestational age in utero level indicates the patient is at an increased risk of developing a complication of preterm birth. The complications of preterm birth include retinopathy of prematurity, developmental delay, mental retardation, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and intraventricular hemorrhage. Methods for treating/preventing and reducing the risk of complications of preterm birth using IGF-I and ins analogs are also provided.

Title: Distributed push-pull amplifier
Inventor: GRUCHALLA MICHAEL E
IPC: H03F3/68
Filed: 1989-02-09
Abstract: The present invention provides a modified distributed amplifier which is capable of providing push-pull operation without the loading losses of conventional push-pull combining. The modified distributed amplifier comprises a distributed amplifier configuration and with signal inverting means, such as a wide bandwidth transmission line transformer, interconnected into both the input and output lines. The signal inverting means are most effectively placed at the electrical centers of the lines, but may be placed at any positions in the individual lines to produce optimum performance to specific applications. The separate segments of the distributed amplifier separated by the signal inverting means operate in opposed phase but the signals output to the load add in phase thus providing push-pull operation. Since only one reverse terminating resistor is required, the power normally lost due to the loading by the companion amplifier of a conventional push-pull combined distributed amplifier system is instead delivered to the output load, the use of this type of amplifier preserves the advantages of the distributed amplifier configuration while providing the superior performance of the push-pull configuration but without the losses normally incurred with conventional push-pull combining.
