Patent CA-2997771-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SIMS GRANT T
IPC: A61B18/12
Filed: 2018-03-07
Abstract: An electrosurgical forceps includes first and second shaft members pivotably coupled to one another via a pivot member such that pivoting of the first and second shaft members between spaced-apart and approximated positions pivots jaw members thereof between open and closed positions. A knife is translatable between retracted and extended positions. A knife deployment mechanism is operably coupled to the first shaft member and includes at least one trigger and at least one linkage coupling the at least one trigger with the knife such that pivoting of the at least one trigger relative to the first shaft member translates the knife between the retracted and extended positions. A knife lockout biased towards a locked position inhibits distal translation of the knife. The knife lockout is movable from the locked position to an unlocked position upon approximation of the jaw members to permit distal translation of the knife.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a fully-automated biological slide specimen processing device and a method. The device mainly comprises a testing assembly (1), a base platform (2), a Z-arm (3), an X-arm (4), a Y-arm (5), a dispensing nozzle (6) and scanning devices for identifying a reagent and a specimen. The device in the present invention can automatically realize regular and quantitative dispensing according to testing process requirements and testing steps, automatically control the heating, automatically control liquid filling and liquid discharging, and realize full automation of the testing process. When the slide specimen needs a heat treatment, an insertion slot may be directly filled with liquid and be heated.  During the heat treatment, even if there is evaporation, solution in a gap can be automatically replenished by sucking liquid through a gap opening at a bottom of a slide assembly due to the capillary siphoning effect. The heat treatment is sufficient and even without drying.  Problems such as evaporation and drying of slides caused by heating in a form of conventional baking are overcome, guaranteeing reliability and reproducibility of the heating process.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to optical character recognition using captured video. According to one embodiment, using a first image in stream of images depicting a document, the device extracts text data in a portion of the document depicted in the first image and determines a first confidence level regarding an accuracy of the extracted text data. If the first confidence level satisfies a threshold value, the device saves the extracted text data as recognized content of the source document. Otherwise, the device extracts the text data from the portion of the document as depicted in one or more second images in the stream and determines a second confidence level for the text data extracted from each second image until identifying one of the second images where the second confidence level associated with the text data extracted from the identified second image satisfies the threshold value.

Abstract: An apparatus for adjusting the partial pressure of gaseous mixtures comprises a housing and piston. The housing defines a chamber coupled to an oxygen metering orifice, diluent metering orifice, vent port and gas outlet. The oxygen metering orifice provides oxygen to the chamber and the diluent metering orifice provides diluent gas to the chamber. The piston is movably positioned in the chamber and includes first and second sealing devices. The chamber is sectioned into a mixing chamber, a diluent chamber and a reference chamber located between the mixing chamber and diluent chamber. The diluent chamber receives a diluent gas referenced at ambient pressure and the reference chamber is charged with a gas having a reference pressure. The piston changes positions within the chamber depending on a force balance created by a pressure differential between the reference pressure and ambient pressure.

Title: Triple vector for expressing antibody molecules in full therapeutic format
Inventor: PAJUELO MARIA GONZALES
IPC: C12N15/63
Filed: 2017-10-11
Abstract: A triple expression vector is disclosed for expressing an antibody molecule comprising an Fc domain in prokaryotic cells and in eukaryotic cells. The triple expression vector comprises a polynucleotide encoding an Fc domain; a polynucleotide encoding a phage coat protein; a cloning site for cloning genes encoding an antibody molecule or a part thereof wherein the antibody molecule or part thereof does not comprise an Fc domain; a prokaryotic secretion signal sequence and a eukaryotic secretion signal sequence, or a secretion signal sequence that drives efficient secretion in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells; a promoter for mediating expression in eukaryotic cells; and a stop codon for preventing expression of the phage coat protein in eukaryotic cells. The triple expression vector can be used for expressing an antibody molecule in a phage display format; for producing the antibody molecule in a prokaryotic cell, for example in the periplasm of a prokaryotic cell; and for producing the antibody molecule in a eukaryotic cell, for example a mammalian cell, more particularly a human cell. The antibody molecule contains an Fc domain, and may be for example a VHH-Fc molecule or an scFv-Fc molecule or a VH-Fc or a VL-Fc. Phage display libraries produced with the vector present the antibody molecule in its therapeutic format. Use of the vector avoids the need for repeated cloning when moving from one expression medium to another.

Inventor: GUNDA LAXMIKANT VITHAL
IPC: H04L12/46
Filed: 2017-12-10
Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a novel architecture for capturing contextual attributes on host computers that execute one or more machines, and for consuming the captured contextual attributes to perform services on the host computers. The machines are virtual machines (VMs) in some embodiments, containers in other embodiments, or a mix of VMs and containers in still other embodiments. Some embodiments execute a guest-introspection (GI) agent on each machine from which contextual attributes need to be captured. In addition to executing one or more machines on each host computer, these embodiments also execute a context engine and one or more attribute-based service engines on each host computer. Through the GI agents of the machines on a host, the context engine of that host in some embodiments collects contextual attributes associated with network events and/or process events on the machines. The context engine then provides the contextual attributes to the service engines, which, in turn, use these contextual attributes to identify service rules for processing.
