Patent CA-2327527-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CAMATO RINO N
IPC: C40B30/04

Abstract: High-throughput measurement of hybridization signatures obtained using compl ex probes prepared from total RNA, DNA microarray and two-color fluorescence detection requires  accurate normalization based on reliable internal control.  The invention relates to rRNA cDNA probes used as internal control to achiev e normalization of fluorescence detection.  Analysis of data obtain from laser scanner during DNA microarray experiment first needs image processing. The data generated for the arrayed genes must be further normalized before differentially expressed genes can be identified. Normalization is necessary to adjust for differences in labeling and detection efficiencies for the fluorescent labels and for differences in the  quantity of starting RNA from the two samples examined in the assay. These problems can cause a shift  in the average ratio of the two fluorophor (Cy3 and Cy5 as an example) and the intensities must be resealed before an experiment can be properly analyzed. Because of its invariant expression across tissues and treatments, 18S and 28S RNA are ideal internal control for quantitative RNA analysis. However the high abundance of these rRNA makes it difficult to use in microarray experiments with mRNA species that are less abundant.  We solve this problem by the utilization of specific amount of competitive complementary oligonucleotide during the hybridization step to adjust the signal detection  of these rRNA cDNA to less abundant cDNA.  The invention may be used for screening of differentially expressed gene expression with cDNA microarray or oligo microarray (DNA microarray).

Title: Cleavable solid dosage forms and method for the production thereof
Inventor: NEUMANN JORG
IPC: A61J3/10
Filed: 1999-12-03
Abstract: The invention relates to solid, oblong dosage forms comprising a longitudinal axis and a length defined by the projection of the ends of the dosage form on the longitudinal axis. A cross-sectional area oriented in a vertical manner in relation to the longitudinal axis comprises a surface measure which varies along said longitudinal axis. The surface measure increases toward both ends in an essentially continuous manner from a cross-sectional area, said cross-sectional area being located between the ends and having a minimal surface measure, up to a respective cross-sectional area having a maximum surface measure. These dosage forms are characterized in that the distance of the maximum cross-sectional area, said cross-sectional area being located in the vicinity of one end, from the maximum cross-sectional area, said cross-sectional area being located in the vicinity of the other end, is greater than half the length of the dosage form in a projection on the longitudinal axis. These dosage forms advantageously display easy divisibility and, at the same time, a sufficient resistance to stress for further processing steps.

Title: Plow with rear mounted, adjustable wing
Inventor: QUENZI PHILIP J
IPC: E01H5/06
Filed: 2001-10-02
Abstract: A plow assembly for vehicles such as pickup trucks and tractors for moving snow or other materials, as well as for bulldozers, graders and the like for excavating and grading dirt, sand, gravel or other plowable materials, has at least one extendable, forwardly pivotable plow wing which is extendable on one end of a main plow by sliding movement along the rear of the plow between a retracted and an extended position in which the plow wing is generally aligned with the plow front surface. The plow wing is also pivotally mounted on a hinge for movement between the extended position and a forwardly angled position in which the plow wing front surface extends at an angle to the plow front surface. At least one actuator, such as an hydraulic fluid power cylinder, is connected to the plow wing to move the wing between the retracted, extended and forwardly angled positions. In a preferred embodiment, an extendable plow wing is included on each end of the main plow with at least one actuator connected to each of the respective plow wings.  Optionally, each plow wing may be movable via a pair of actuators, whereby the actuators in each respective pair are operable independently of one another to move the plow wings independently between their respective retracted, extended and forwardly angled positions.  When both plow wings are pivoted to their forwardly angled positions, the plow assembly has a general U-shape which facilitates pushing snow, dirt, sand or other plowable material without the material slipping off the plow blade ends. The main plow may include a section formed from polymeric sheet material for weight reduction. Because the plow wings are movable along the rear surface of the plow, the front surface of the plow provides a substantially continuous, uninterrupted surface for moving the plowed material therealong.
