Title: Reagents and methods for diagnosing, imaging and treating atherosclerotic disease
Inventor: WITZTUM JOSEPH
IPC: A61K49/22
Filed: 2000-10-26
Granted: 2004-05-20
Abstract: The invention provides a novel human Mab Fab, cloned by phage display, and its use in diagnostic and therapeutic methods. In particular the invention provides a method for analyzing the OxLDL components of atherosclerotic plaques <i>in vivo</i> and a means to determine their relative pathology. As the method is based on a human Fab rather than a mouse Mab, the progress or regression of the disease may be monitored over time. The antibody may also be used for the analysis of surgical or serum samples <i>ex vivo</i> for the prsence of OxLDL. The antibody may also be used to target therapeutic agents to the site of atherosclerotic plaques or may have use as a therapeutic agent itself.

Title: Vernier control system for subsynchronous resonance mitigation
Inventor: BOWLER COLIN E J
IPC: H02J3/12
Filed: 1993-05-13
Granted: 1995-11-23
Abstract: A subsynchronous resonance mitigation system, including a method and apparatus, for damping undesirable subsynchronous resonance oscillations in a generator, which, if left unchecked, may damage the shafts of a turbine-generator set. A remote coupling apparatus, such as a thyristor controlled series capacitor (TCSC) system, a sourced inverter device, or a static phase shifter, is coupled to the generator by a transmission line. In response to a firing command, the coupling apparatus introduces subsynchronous resonance mitigating currents into the transmission line. Sensors monitor power line parameters and/or the generator speed, and in response thereto, a higher-level controller generates a voltage command. A vernier controller responds to the monitored power line parameters and the voltage command to provide the firing command to the coupling apparatus.

Title: New and improved, ultra-low carryover sample liquid analysis apparatus and method
Inventor: UFFENHEIMER KENNETH F
IPC: G01N1/00
Filed: 1993-08-19
Granted: 1994-04-14
Abstract: The sample liquids analysis system includes a probe which is automatically operable to successively aspirate sample liquids and reagent and/or other sample liquids processing liquids and to dispense the same in turn into sample liquids analysis apparatus for automatic, successive sample liquids analyses. Isolation liquid supply apparatus are operatively associated with the sample liquids aspirating and dispensing probe and operate to introduce an isolation liquid which is immiscible with the sample liquids and which selectively wets the probe to the substantial exclusion of the sample liquids, to the probe to, in combination with operatively associated rinse liquid supply apparatus which operate to fill the probe with a rinse liquid between successive sample liquids aspirations, reduce sample liquids carryover to ultra low levels. The sample liquids aspirating and dispensing probe are operated by the rinse liquid supply apparatus; and comprise a probe body member, and an active probe component operatively connected thereto by a readily disconnectable connector, thus making possible the ready and convenient replacement of the active probe component without adverse effect upon the essential configuration and/or operational characteristics of the rinse liquid supply apparatus, and thereby upon the overall performance of the sample liquids analysis system. The configuration of the probe operates to reduce sample liquids flow velocity in the active probe component, thereby further reducing sample liquids carryover.

Title: Device for calibrating distance-measuring apparatuses
Inventor: GIGER KURT
IPC: G01S7/497
Filed: 1997-10-17
Granted: 2000-05-04
Abstract: A transmitter emits high-frequency modulated optical radiation which is reflected by an object and is received by a measurement receiver. Part of the transmitter radiation is decoupled as reference radiation and guided via a calibration path to a reference receiver whose electrical signals are fed to a frequency mixer. The frequency mixer and avalanche photodiodes acting as measurement receivers of the measuring radiation are interconnected directly via an electrical connection line upon which a mixer frequency acts. As a result thereof, optoelectronic calibration which completely compensates for the temperature-dependent phase shifts of the avalanche photodiodes is possible. Additionally, the phase shifts generated in the reference and receiver signals by the temperature drifts of the transmitter compensate one another. The overall accuracy of the distance measurement can be increased, particularly for short measuring times and immediately after the apparatus has been switched on. Furthermore, in comparison with a successive mechanical calibration process, the measuring times are halved and advantages in terms of weight, cost, and reliability are afforded since a mechanical change-over device is dispensed with.

Title: Filter device for the filtration of fluids
Inventor: ROSSEN LEONARD M VAN
IPC: B01D46/12
Filed: 1994-02-22
Granted: 1997-09-25
Abstract: The filter device (10), provided for the filtration of fluids, comprises two interconnected material structures (14, 16) forming a filter unit (12). The two material structures (14, 16) are mechanically stable, at least one of the two material structures (14, 16) being elastically deformable. The two material structures (14, 16) are connected to each other at opposite connecting sites, with one (16) of the material structures forming an arch between the connecting sites. This arch has been generated by elastic deformation of the respective material structure (16) so that this material structure (16) is mechanically biased. A stretching movement of this material structure (16) is prevented by the connection of this material structure (16) to the other material structure (14) which in turn is of substantially plane configuration and is tensioned. Each thus constructed filter unit (12) offers high stability against the forces generated by the fluid flow so that a filter element (10) comprising such filter units can be inserted without additional constructions or elements which maintain the arched structure of the curved one material structure (16).
