Title: Method for de novo detection of sequences in nucleic acids:target sequencing by fragmentation
Inventor: SIDDIQI FOUAD A
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2005-04-08
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for determining nucleic acid sequences of a template nucleic acid that requires no prior knowledge of the nucleic acid sequence present in the template nucleic acid. The method is based on combining information about the mass of a fragment, the mass of any one nucleotide and the combinations thereof, and the sequence specificity of a nucleotide cutter, either enzymatic or chemical cutter, to determine a sequence of a nucleic acid fragment. This method allows for de novo detection of sequences in a target nucleic acid without requiring any prior sequence information. This method is called Partial Sequencing by Fragmentation (PSBF) and it works by fragmenting a target into oligo- or polynucleotides whose masses or lengths are uniquely associated with known sequences. The identities of these sequences are determined solely by the specific fragmentation method used, and are always independent of the target. PSBF can be implemented using electrophoresis, mass spectrometry or any other method that can be used to distinguish the size of the cut nucleic acid sequence fragments.

Abstract: A method and a system for height triangulation measurement are disclosed. The method and the system are particularly useful for measuring the height of an object on a surface e.g., bumps or small wafer. Three steps do the measurement. The first step is illuminating the object from a known angle with a narrow strip of light being spatially incoherent, having a large numerical aperture along the light strip and a small numerical aperture perpendicular to the light strip. The second step is imaging the object from a known angle having said large numerical aperture along the light strip and the small numerical aperture perpendicular to the light strip, having an image that includes the object and the light strip and the last step is calculating the height of the object from the location of the light strip on the image.

Title: Method and device for decoupling and/or desynchronizing neural brain activity
Inventor: POPOVYCH OLEKSANDR
IPC: A61B5/374
Filed: 2005-04-28
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for decoupling and/or desynchronizing neural, pathologically synchronous bra n activity, in which, according to the invention, the activities in a partial region of a brain area or a functionally associated brain area are stimulated by means of an electrode, surprisingly resulting in decoupling and desynchronizing the affected neuron population from the pathological area and suppression of the symptoms in a patient. In an alternative embodiment of the device, the pathologically synchronous brain activity due to the disease is desynchronized which also leads to the symptoms being suppressed. As a stimulus, the feedback stimulation signal, that is to say the measured, time delayed and processed neural activity is used, whereby the stimulation signal is controlled on demand in a self-regulating manner according to the invention as a result of which the intensity of the resultant stimulation influence on the neuron population to be decoupled or on the neuron population to be desynchronized is automatically minimized after successful decoupling and/or desynchronization. To operate successfully, the device needs neither elaborate calibration nor control of the stimulation parameters but these can be adapted and optimized preferably by the additional control system. The device comprises a stimulation electrode (2) and at least one sensor (3) which are driven by a control system in such manner that they produce decoupling and/or desynchronization i n their local environment.

Abstract: A gas sensor arrangement for detecting a combustible gas comprises a detector wire in thermal contact with a catalyst and a compensator wire. The wires are in the form of pellet resistors (pellistors) and in a constant current bridge arrangement. An electrical circuit connected to the detector wire and to the compensator wire is arranged to detect a difference between the resistance of the detector wire and the resistance of the compensator wire to provide an output signal to indicate the presence of a combustible gas. The electrical circuit is further arranged to derive a correction signal from a measurement of the resistance of the compensator wire for correcting the output signal for temperature variation. The ambient temperature is thereby measured using the voltage across the compensator wire. The correction can be implemented in hardware or software.

Title: Wastewater treatment tank with influent gates and pre-react zone with an outwardly flared lower portion
Inventor: LINDBO GLEN D
IPC: B01D21/24
Filed: 1999-09-28
Abstract: A wastewater treatment tank with influent gates (24) and pre-react zone with an outwardly flared lower portion. Influent passes over influent gate (24), which introduce turbulence, causing aeration, and reducing flow velocity.  As influent flows out of the influent gate housing (20), flow velocity is further reduced by contact with the surface of the wastewater in the basin and influent flow is directed laterally by an influent gate bottom (30). A pre-react zone director (34) spaced apart from the bottom (42) of the basin encloses the influent gate housing (20) and utilizes an outwardly flared lower portion, or flap (38), to further reduce flow velocity and enhance laminar flow. This results in minimal disturbance of settled sludge blanket, allowing it to act as a natural biological filter, which in turn results in a superior supernatant.

Abstract: An indwelling catheter comprises a catheter tube.  The catheter tube is provided with an inserted portion which is to be inserted into a patient and a main portion which is provided on a base end side of the inserted portion. Furthermore, a tapered portion is formed on at least a part of the inserted portion. An outer diameter of the inserted portion is thinner than an outer diameter of the main portion. According to the above-mentioned indwelling catheter, since the outer diameter of the inserted portion is made thinner than that of the main portion by providing the tapered portion, a pricking pain of a patient is reduced. In addition, since the outer diameter of the inserted portion is made thin without the need of making the outer diameter of the main portion thin, a sufficient flow amount of fluid for medical interventions can be secured.

Title: Nanoparticulate leukotriene receptor antagonist/corticosteroid formulations
Inventor: LIVERSIDGE GARY
IPC: A61K31/573
Filed: 2006-03-16
Abstract: Nanoparticulate compositions comprising a corticosteroid and a leukotriene receptor antagonist are described. The compositions are useful in the prophylaxis and chronic treatment of asthma in adults and pediatric patients and for the relief of allergic conjunctivitis, symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis in adults and pediatric patients. Combining a leukotriene receptor antagonist with a corticosteroid in particle size ranges of less than 2000 n in a single formulation results in improved efficacy. In addition, patient compliance is enhanced since only one dosage form is needed. Furthermore, local administration of the leukotriene receptor antagonist results in less liver toxicity since the liver will be exposed to lower amounts of drug than happens following oral administration. The drug compositions according to the invention can be formulated into inhalation, nasal, or ocular formulations.
