Patent CA-2590933-A1 (CA)
Title: Cell free biosynthesis of high-quality nucleic acid and uses thereof
Inventor: SKOLNICK MALCOLM
IPC: C12P19/34
Filed: 2005-12-12
Abstract: The invention provides an improved cell free amplification method capable of producing large quantities of therapeutic-quality nucleic acids and methods of using the synthesized nucleic acid in research, therapeutic and other applications- The methods combine several different state-of-the-art procedures and coordinate their applications to affordably synthesize nucleic acids for therapeutic purposes. It combines in vitro rolling circle amplification, high fidelity polymerases, high affinity primers, and streamlined template specifically designed for particular applications. For expression purposes, the templates contain an expression cassette including a eukaryotic promoter, the coding sequence for the gene of interest, and a eukaryotic termination sequence. Following amplification, concatamers are subsequently processed according to their intended use and may include:  restriction enzyme digestion for the production of short expression cassettes (SECs); ligation steps to circularize the SEC (CNAs); and/or supercoiling steps to produce sCNAs. The final product contains nearly non-detectable levels of bacterial endotoxin.

Title: Method for producing hot strip with a multiphase structure
Inventor: HENNIG WOLFGANG

Filed: 2006-10-10
Abstract: For the production of hot strip referred to as TRIP steel (transformation induced plasticity), with a multiphase structure and with outstandingly good deformation properties along with high strengths, from the hot-rolled state, the invention proposes a method which is carried out with a predetermined chemical composition of the steel grade used within the limits 0.12 - 0.25% C;  0.05 - 1.8% Si; 1.0 -2.0% Mn; the remainder Fe and customary accompanying elements and with a combined rolling and cooling strategy in such a way that a structure comprising 40 - 70% ferrite, 15 - 45% bainite and 5 - 20% residual austenite is obtained, wherein the finish rolling of the hot strip (7) is performed to set a very fine austenite grain (d < 8 ~m) in the final forming operation (6') at temperatures between 770 and 830~C just above Ar3 in the region of the metastable austenite, and a controlled two-stage cooling (10, 11, 12) is carried out after the last rolling stand (6') of the hot strip (7) to a strip temperature in the range of bainite formation of 320 - 480~C, with a holding time of about 650 - 730~C, the beginning of which is determined by the entry of the cooling curve into the ferrite region and the duration of which is determined by the transformation of the austenite into at least 40%  ferrite.

Title: Spectrometre de masse
Inventor: BATEMAN ROBERT HAROLD
IPC: H01J49/42
Filed: 2006-11-23
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant d'identifier des ions parents par mise en correspondance d'ions filles produits sensiblement simultanément à l'élution des ions parents d'un mélange. Les ions provenant d'une source d'ions (1) sont transmis à un dispositif de fragmentation (4) par dissociation par capture d'électrons, par dissociation par transfert d'électrons ou par dissociation induite par une surface. Ledit dispositif de fragmentation (4) passe de manière alternative et répétée d'un premier mode dans lequel les ions sont sensiblement fragmentés pour produire des ions filles à un second mode dans lequel les ions ne sont pas sensiblement fragmentés. On obtient des spectres de masse dans les deux modes. A la fin d'une expérience, on reconnaît les ions parents et les ions filles par comparaison des spectres de masse obtenus dans les deux différents modes. On établit une correspondance entre des ions filles et des ions parents particuliers en fonction du degré de correspondance de leur temps d'élution, ce qui permet ensuite d'identifier lesdits ions parents.

Abstract: Lorsqu'on se déplace sur une route enneigée il se forme une accumulation de neige au niveau des fausses-ailes situées dans les compartiments à roue de la voiture d'où l'idée d'installer des fausses-ailes chauffantes. Il s'agit de fausses-ailes chauffantes faites à base de fibre de carbone ou de fibre de verre dans lesquelles on retrouve des éléments chauffants. Les éléments chauffants permettent d'enlever la neige qui s'accumule entre la roue et le compartiment à roue rendant les manoeuvres directionnelles plus difficiles pendant l'hiver. Puisque la voiture comporte quatre compartiments à roue on devra alors faire quatre fausses-ailes chauffantes dont la mise en marche sera commandée de l'intérieur de la voiture tout comme le dégivreur de vitre. Le bouton de commande comprendra une minuterie interne et le tout sera protégé par un fusible pour éviter une surcharge électrique des fausses-ailes chauffantes. Sous l'effet de la chaleur dégagée par les fausses-ailes chauffantes et de la gravité la neige accumulée transformée en glace va fondre et tomber.
