Abstract: A tricistronic vector (i.e., a vector capable of expressing three exogenous genes, which are not fused together, under the control of one promoter) effectively can encode an immunoglobulin-presenting polypeptide and two immunoglobulin (Ig) polypeptides. The encoded Ig-presenting polypeptide is able to associate with at least one of the Ig polypeptides via co-expressed associating agents. A vector according to the present invention particularly is suited for phage display technology, e.g., when the Ig-presenting polypeptide is a phage coat protein and the Ig polypeptides associate to form a Fab.

Patent CA-2515257-C (CA)
Inventor: LONG NORRIS RICHARD
IPC: F24H9/20
Filed: 2004-02-26
Granted: 2013-10-08
Abstract: A portable instant water heater. Water is delivered to a base unit of the instant hot water heater by a pump that draws water from a reservoir through a flow control valve. The water flows into a pre-heater that wraps around a base of the burner and that is heated by the burner. Water is heated in a heat exchanger and then exits the base unit through an outlet spout that swings out from the base unit to dispense water and that may be stored and locked into position in a handle for the base unit. The flow control valve may lower the flow of water through the heat exchanger, so the water has more time to absorb heat and to get hotter. The base unit includes a single control knob that turns on the pump and the burner and operates the flow control valve.
Patent CA-2516063-C (CA)
Inventor: HAPPE BARBARA
IPC: F23N5/10
Filed: 2004-02-26
Granted: 2012-02-07
Abstract: The aim of the invention is to create a gas regulating fitting that, in addition to enabling an electronic ignition of the gas flow, also permits a manual ignition. An unwanted manual actuation should, however, be prevented. A covering element (17) is displaceably mounted on the housing (1) of the gas regulating fitting and, in a first position, covers a tappet (10; 14), which is provided for actuating a thermoelectric ignition safety valve (26) and a main valve (19), and covers a control switch (13) of a piezoelectric igniting element. When the covering element (17) is in a second position, an actuation of the tappet (10; 14), which inevitably occurs when the covering element (17) is displaced, ensures that the main valve (19) is located in the closed position. In addition, the control switch (13) and the tappet (10, 14) are released in this position in such a manner that an ignition of the gas flow is made possible by a manual actuation thereof. The gas regulating fitting can be used for igniting and for controlling a gas flow flowing to a burner.
