Patent CA-2575507-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MANSOUR ATEF
IPC: G01N33/68
Filed: 2006-12-21
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a simple method for absolute quantification of plasma vitellogenin from two or more different fish species such as Rainbow trout and Atlantic salmon, or Atlantic cod and haddock. In the case of Rainbow trout and Atlantic salmon, plasma samples obtained from control and P-estradiol induced fish were digested with trypsin. A characteristic 'signature peptide' was selected and analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography coupled to an electrospray quadrupole-time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometer, using a deuterated homologue peptide as an internal standard. The hybrid tandem mass spectrometer was operated in a 'pseudo' selected reaction monitoring mode by which three diagnostic product ions were monitored for identification and quantification purposes. The reproducibility (coefficient of variation -5%) and sensitivity (limit of quantification of 0.009 mg/mL) achieved by this simple assay allow it to be considered as an alternative to immunological assays. In the case of Atlantic cod and haddock, the amino acid sequence of the vitellogenin protein has not yet been determined, but, the Atlantic cod vitellogenin has been characterized using a'bottom-up' mass spectrometric approach. Vitellogenin synthesis was induced 'in vivo' with P-Estradiol, and subjected to trypsin digestion for characterization by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-Quadrupole-Time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry. A peptide mass fingerprint was obtained and 'de novo' sequencing of the most abundant tryptic peptides was performed by low energy collision induced dissociation-tandem mass spectrometry. Thus, the sequences of various tryptic peptides have been elucidated. It has also been determined that Atlantic cod vitellogenin shares a series of common peptides with the two different known vitellogenin sequences of Haddock, a closely related species. There are also disclosed novel isolated signature peptides, namely Thr-Tyr-Phe-Ala-Gly-Ala-Ala-Ala-Asp-Val-Leu-Glu-Val-Gly-Val-Arg and Asp Leu Gly Leu Ala Tyr Thr Glu Lys.

Title: Methods and apparatus for measuring flow velocity in a wellbore using nmr and applications using same
Inventor: POITZSCH MARTIN E
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 2002-09-09
Abstract: The present invention provides methods and apparatus for determining flow velocity within a formation utilizing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques in which the shape of the resonance region is restricted so that sensitivity to radial flow or vertical flow is obtained (or both when more than one NMR tool is used). Flow velocity using these NMR tools is determined using decay amplitude, frequency displacement or stimulated echoes (where the spins are stored along the magnetic field instead of the transverse plane to exploit echo decays and frequency displacements) based on the application of adiabatic pulses. Based on the described NMR measurement of flow velocity, additional wellbore parameters may be obtained such as a direct measurement of permeability, an assessment of drilling damage to the wellbore, formation pressure, invasion rate of the mud filtrate or the migration of fine mud particles during sampling operations.

Abstract: A multiple-slide die-casting machine (20) is equipped with improved mechanical structure and unique injection control system to improve the quality of molded products, to achieve flash free castings of improved surface finish. The clamping assemblies (52A, 52B, 52C, 52D) are mounted on one side of a base plate (22) of the machine for applying clamping force to the mold sections in a preloaded state. A reinforcement ring (56) interconnects the clamping assemblies to inhibit deflection of the base plate and the brackets (72) which support the clamping assemblies so that an accurate parting line between the contacting surfaces of mold sections is insured. The unique injection control system of the machine provides selectively closed loop and open loop injection to achieve the advantage of a closed loop control injection which provides for optimal parameters for an injection cycle to eliminate hammer effect, and the advantage of open loop which is suitable for die-casting small products requiring an injection stroke too short to be reacted on in closed loop control.
