Patent EP-1015102-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LEWIS MICHAEL ANTHONY
IPC: B01F27/93
Filed: 1998-08-19
Abstract: A mixing apparatus comprising a central disc driven by a rotating shaft. A number of mixing plates are stacked above and/or below the central disc. The mixing plates are spaced from and parallel to the central disc. Each plate has a central aperture and the diameter of the central aperture increases progressively away from the central disc to define a space coaxial with the rotating shaft. In operation, fluid is drawn into the space and directed out through the space between the plates. When placed near the surface of a fluid, air is drawn in and the fluid is aerated as well as mixed.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne l'introduction d'altérations spécifiques dans les gènes qui codent trois apolipoprotéines, Apo A1, Apo B et Apo E. Les altérations dans Apo A1 introduisent un reste de cystéine, ce qui entraîne la formation des homodimères Apo A1 à réticulation disulfure et des hétérodimères Apo A1, A2. Les altérations dans Apo B introduisent des codons de terminaison ou des mutations de décalage de cadre qui entraînent la production d'une protéine Apo B tronquée. Les altérations dans Apo E introduisent des mutations ponctuelles spécifiques ayant été identifiées comme protectrices. La production dans le foie d'un sujet de ces protéines ainsi altérées réduit le risque qu'ont ces sujets de développer une athérosclérose. Dans un mode de réalisation, ces altérations génétiques sont introduites au moyen d'oligonucléotides duplex chimériques à ARN/ADN mixtes.

Abstract: The present invention provides a simple all digital method and apparatus ( fig. 4 ) for determining the phase of a first clock signal (Fs) relative to a second clock signal (Fs). The first clock signal (Fs) may be a digital approximation of a periodic analog signal such as an RF signal. A sampling technique is employed that produces a stream of digital bits (X) containing relative phase information. From the stream of digital data bits is formed a digital word indicative of the relative phase ( fig. 11A ). The digital word may be formed using a digital filter ( fig. 13 ). Advantageously, an extensive body of digital filtering techniques applicable to Sigma-Delta (sometimes referred to as Delta-Sigma) A/D converters ( fig. 1 ) may be applied directly to he digital stream (X). By using an appropriately chosen weighting function, high accuracy may be obtained.

Patent EP-0967732-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BURKE MICHAEL EUGENE
IPC: H04B1/10
Filed: 1999-06-08
Abstract: A receiver desensitization system sets the sensitivity of a receiver by
injecting a desensitization signal appearing as noise onto a receive path of the receiver
to adjust the noise power level relative to the power level of signals on the receive path.
For example, a desensitization source (18) provides a desensitization signal appearing
as noise onto a desensitization path. An adjustable attenuator (26) on the
desensitization path adjusts the power level of the desensitization signal to provide a
desired level of desensitization. The desensitization path is coupled (at 28) to a receive
path of a receiver, and the desensitization signal is injected into the receive path. The
desensitization signal desensitizes the receiver by raising the noise power level relative
to the signal power level on the receive path. The desensitization signal can be injecting
into the receive path after a main amplifier (22) on the receive path. By injecting the
desensitization signal after the amplifier, the desensitization system reduces the
contribution to the overall noise figure that would occur if any attenuation of the signal
were to occur before the input to the amplifier. Depending on the application, the
desensitization signal can be injected into the receive path at the radio frequency (RF),
intermediate frequency (IF) or baseband stages of the receiver. The desensitization
signal can take a variety of forms, such as broadband noise, a continuous wave signal, a
modulated signal, or a digital pseudo-random noise sequence.
