Title: Floating support structure for cd changer
Inventor: OCHIAI HIDEO
IPC: G11B33/08
Filed: 2003-08-06
Abstract: A CD changer mounted on a vehicle is supported in a floating manner to sufficiently damp vibrations and prevent a CD from skipping. Mounting plates and a pair of inner support plates are connected to each other at two front and two rear points by a first set of dampers, which buffer displacement of the mounting plates within a vertical plane relative to the inner support plates. The inner support plates and a pair of outer support plates opposite the inner support plates and supported on the base plates are connected to each other at two front and two rear points by a second set of dampers, which buffer displacement of the inner support plates within a vertical plane relative to the outer support plates. Suspended springs mounted between the mounting plate and the outer support plate exert a spring force to counteract the weight of the CD changer.

Inventor: STEVENS JOHN F
IPC: A23L25/00
Filed: 2002-06-13
Abstract: Coating-type compositions and methods using the compositions for making new forms of chip-type and other fried or baked snack and/or convenience food items, including sweet goods, which are externally coated with and/or direct ly incorporate the compositions into their dough matrix. The compositions significantly increase the crispness and tensile strength of the food item after it is cooked with them in place, and so change both the organoleptic a nd storage qualities of the foods as to provide a new form of the underlying product. Once sweet goods, the coating provides a stabilizing surface barrie r for sugar toppings which prevents them from becoming tacky, moist, or wet, while adding crispness at the surface and simultaneously reducing moisture loss from the baked dough, greatly retarding staling. The coatings also provide a new and better way of applying seasonings and colorings to food products.

Abstract: A valve (100a) that has at least one internal port (130a) on a valve core (102a) and at least one an internal slot (154a) in a valve body (108a). The valve core (102a) is biased into a position wherein the port of the valve core is aligned with a sealing surface (126a) of the valve body thereby prohibiting fluid flow through the valve. The valve core (102a) is slidable such that the port of the valve core becomes aligned with the internal slot (154a) of the valve body thereby allowing fluid flow through the valve. Another valve includes a self-aligning valve seat carrier (200c) which is pivotably engaged with a valve core member. The self-aligning valve seat carrier engages a sealing surface in a valve body to prohibit fluid flow through the valve, but the valve core is slidable such that the self-aligning valve seat carrier disengages from the sealing surface in order to allow fluid flow through the valve.

Title: Prolactin induced increase in neural stem cell numbers and therapeutical use thereof
Inventor: SHINGO TETSURO
IPC: A61K35/12
Filed: 2002-08-30
Abstract: The present invention provides a method of increasing neural stem cell numbe rs or neurogenesis by using prolactin. The method can be practiced in vivo to obtain more neural stem cells in situ, which can in turn produce more neuron s or glial cells to compensate for lost or dysfunctional neural cells. The method can also be practiced in vitro to produce a large number of neural st em cells in culture. The cultured stem cells can be used, for example, for transplantation treatment of patients or animals suffering from neurodegenerative diseases or conditions. In addition, since neural stem cel ls are a source for olfactory neurons, the present invention also provides methods of increasing olfactory neurons and enhancing olfactory functions.</ SDOAB>

Title: Antibody complexes and methods for immunolabeling
Inventor: ARCHER ROBERT M
IPC: G01N33/68
Filed: 2002-10-02
Abstract: The present invention provides labeling reagents and methods for labeling primary antibodies and for detecting a target in a sample using an immuno-labeled complex that comprises a target-binding antibody and one or more labeling reagents. The labeling reagents comprise monovalent antibody fragments or non-antibody monomeric proteins whereby the labeling proteins have affinity for a specific region of the target-binding antibody and are covalently attached to a label. Typically, the labeling reagent is an anti-Fc Fab or Fab' fragment that was generated by immunizing a goat or rabbit with the Fc fragment of an antibody. The present invention provides for discrete subsets of labeling reagent and immuno-labeled complexes that facilitate the simultaneous detection of multiple targets in a sample wherein the immuno-labeled complexes are distinguished by i) a ratio of label to labeling reagent, or ii) a physical property of said label, or iii) a ratio of labeling reagent to said target-binding antibody, or iv) by said target-binding antibody. This is particularly useful for fluorophore labels that can be attached to labeling reagents and subsequently immuno-labeled complexes in ratios for the detection of multiple targets.

Title: Method for the evaluation of velvet antler
Inventor: DESROCHES GARRY B
IPC: G01N33/483
Filed: 2003-03-11
Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus using infrared thermography for predicting an unknown value of an internal composition characteristic of velvet antler in vivo, in vitro, and/or during cooling or warming. The method involves generating a predictive model using a sample population of antlers to determine a relationship between a known input variable and a known value for the composition characteristic; and using the predictive model to predict the unknown value of the same composition characteristic in an antler not selected from the sample population. Using this value, a map can be made to identify sites and levels of the composition characteristic within the antler. The invention provides a method for predicting an internal composition characteristic of a velvet antler by obtaining an infrared thermographic image of the antler and visually ranking the image by comparison to a corresponding image of an antler with the desired composition characteristic. A method to predict maturity by comparing temperature differences between the antler's tip and base is provided.
