Title: Formulations for alteration of biophysical properties of mucosal lining
Inventor: CLARKE ROBERT
IPC: A61K9/12
Filed: 2006-05-18
Abstract: Conductive formulations containing conductive agents, such as salts, ionic surfactants, or other substances that are in an ionized state or easily ionized in an aqueous or organic solvent environment, and methods of use, have been developed. One or more active agents, such as antivirals, antimicrobials, anti-inflammatories, proteins or peptides, may optionally be included with the formulation. The active agent may be administered with or incorporated into the formulation, or may be administered after the conductive formulation is administered. When applied to mucosal lining fluids, the formulation alters the physical properties such as the surface tension, surface elasticity, and bulk viscosity of the mucosal lining. The formulation is administered in an amount sufficient to alter biophysical properties in the mucosal linings of the body. The formulations may be administered for several different purposes:  reducing the spreading of infectious diseases, both viral and bacterial, such as SARS, influenza, tuberculosis, and RSV in humans and hoof and mouth disease in cloven-footed animals; minimizing ambient contamination due to particle formation during breathing, coughing, sneezing, or talking which is particularly important in the clean room applications; decreasing or preventing the occurrence of obstructive sleep apnea and some cases of irritable bowel syndrome; and controlling the uptake kinetics of drug molecules and pathogens.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the generation of image data for the stereoscopic representation of an object on a display (1, 3) with a two-dimensional array of pixels (6), whereby the array has several adjacent image regions (11) in a direction (x), each comprising several adjacent pixels (P11, P12, P13) in the direction (x). According to the method, image data for several viewed aspects (A1, A2, A3, A4) of the object are gathered, a distribution of the aspects (A1, A2, A3, A4) in a one- or two-dimensional base cell (10) is defined, a weighting function (W1, W2, W3, W4) is determined for each aspect, determining the weighting appropriate for image data of the aspects (A1, A2, A3, A4) on determining the image data, depending on the position in the base cell (10), whereby all the weighting functions (W1, W2, W3, W4) together represent the distribution in the base cell (10). In order to determine the image data for the pixels (6) of an image region (11), the weighting functions (W1, W2, W3, W4) are scaled such that the base cell (10) covers the image region (11) in the direction (x) and then the weighting for each pixel (6) given by the scaled weighting function (W1, W2, W3, W4) for the position thereof in the image region (11) is determined, by means of which the image data for the corresponding aspects (A1, A2, A3, A4) are weighted and allocated to the image data of the pixel (6).

Title: Systems and methods for audio processing
Inventor: WANG WEN
IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 2006-09-13
Abstract: Systems and methods for audio signal processing are disclosed, where a discrete number of simple digital filters (266) are generated for particular portions of an audio frequency range. Studies have shown that certain frequency ranges are particularly important for human ears' location-discriminating capability, while other ranges are generally ignored. Head-Related Transfer Functions (HRTFs) (170) are examples response functions that characterize how ears perceive sound positioned at different locations. By selecting one or more "location-critical" portions (172, 174) of such response functions, one can construct simple filters (180) that can be used to simulate hearing where location-discriminating capability is substantially maintained.  Because the filters can be simple, they can be implemented in devices (550, 562) having limited computing power and resources to provide location-discrimination responses that form the basis for many desirable audio effects.

Title: Stenger screening in automated diagnostic hearing test
Inventor: WASDEN CHRISTOPHER L
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 2006-08-31
Abstract: Method and system are disclosed for automated testing of a patient's hearing.  The automated hearing test allows the patient to quickly and accurately test his own hearing. The patient is instructed and prompted for inputs and responses as needed. The patient and/or operator can select one or several tests to be performed, including air and bone conduction testing with masking, speech reception threshold, speech discrimination, tympanogram, acoustic reflex, and otoacoustic emissions testing. Stenger screening is automatically performed for some patients based on the difference in pure tone frequency air conduction thresholds. Multiple languages are supported. Data obtained from one test may be used for another test or another iteration of the same test to calculate masking levels. The automatic hearing test also detects and compensates for ambient noise in the test results. If a contingency occurs, the automated hearing test is configured to page the operator for assistance.

The amount of emulsion adjuvant required for an influenza vaccine can be reduced, thereby allowing more vaccines to be made from a given amount of emulsion, and/or minimizing the amount of emulsion that has to be produced for a given number of vaccine doses. These vaccines can conveniently be made by mixing (i) an oil-in-water emulsion and (ii) an aqueous preparation of an influenza virus antigen. In one aspect, substantially equal volumes of components (i) and (ii) are used; in another aspect, an excess volume of component (ii) is used. When using substantially equal volumes, component (ii) has a hemagglutinin concentration of more than 60µg per influenza virus strain per ml.  Components (i) and (ii) can be presented in kit form.

Abstract: In certain example embodiments of this invention, a window unit may include a vacuum IG (VIG) unit as an inboard lite and a monolithic lite (e.g., with an optional low-E coating; thereon) as an outboard lite. A dead air space may separate the inboard and outboard lites. A highly insulated frame may be used to support the inner and outer lites. The VIG unit may be partially embedded or supported in the insulative frame, so that the insulating frame separates the VIG unit inboard lite from the outboard lite thereby reducing conductivity around the edges of the window unit so that R-value can be increased (and U-value decreased). In certain example embodiments, the total R-value of the window unit is at least about R-8, and more preferably at least about R-IO  (compared to the much lower R-values of conventional IG units).

Title: Air conditioning system for low ambient cooling
Inventor: TURNER LYNN A
IPC: G05D23/12
Filed: 2007-01-22
Abstract: An air conditioning system that comprises a controller that is in electrical communication with a compressor, a condenser fan, a temperature sensor that measures the temperature of the ambient air, a temperature sensor that measures the temperature of a condenser coil of the air conditioning system, and a low pressure switch (LPS) that measure the pressure of a refrigerant disposed within the air conditioning system. An algorithm resident on the controller controls the controller to enter a low ambient cooling mode when the temperature of the ambient air is less than a set temperature. The algorithm further controls the controller so that a minimum and/or maximum cycling frequency is imposed on the condenser fan. The algorithm further controls the controller so that the controller does not respond to an LPS trip during the early part of a cooling cycle under low outdoor temperature conditions, which might not accurately indicate a system fault, but still shuts down the compressor in response to an LPS trip under conditions that truly indicate a system fault.
