Abstract: The invention relates to an artificial promoter which is characterised in th at it comprises a chimeric molecule of recombinant DNA which, once introduced into plant cells of any class, promotes high expression levels of any DNA molecule that is fused to the 3~ end thereof. The basic genetic elements of the inventive promoter molecule are as follows: a promoter nucleus with a consensus TATA box followed by an Exon/Intron/Exon region and a translationa l activity-potentiating element, all of which are produced artificially. Transcriptional expression-regulating elements can be inserted upstream of t he promoter in order to provide the expression with the specific time-response capacity of organ or tissue. The artificial genetic elements designed can be functionally inserted between any active promoter in plant cells and any DNA sequence in order to increase the transcription/translation levels of the latter.
Patent CA-2519295-A1 (CA)
IPC: B65F1/16
Filed: 2005-09-26
Abstract: This device provides a convenient, clean and hands free process of disposing garbage. A battery powered garbage bin, where the lid of the bin may automatically open through the use of an infrared sensor.  Once the garbage bin senses that there is an object/person that has approached the garbage bin from at least one foot above the bin the lid will automatically open and within six seconds of no longer senses anyone or anything above the bin it will close.  If the infrared senses that there is something still above the garbage bine while it is open, it will not shut until six seconds after the infrared sensor detects no more movement or presence above the bin.  To open the lid, simply wave your hand or any other object within the lids range and it will quickly open automatically.   The garbage bin requires four "D" batteries.   The garbage bin's power is controlled by an on/off switch that is located on the back of the lid base. Turn the garbage bin on by flicking the switch on at the back of the lid's base.  A red light will appear from the sensor indicators that are located on the front of the lid base (just under the lid) for three seconds and then flash every two seconds to indicate that the garbage bin has power.   Another option is to open the garbage bin manually by simply pressing the open button located in the front of the lid and to close the lid by pressing the close button.  Pressing the close button a second time will reset the garbage bin into automatic mode.  The garbage bin must have the power switch on in order to operate on either settings.

Title: Method of estimating the spatial variation of magnetic resonance imaging radiofrequency (rf) signal intensities within an object from the measured intensities in a uniform spin density medium surrounding the object
Inventor: ST PIERRE TIM
IPC: G01R33/56
Filed: 2004-04-08
Abstract: A method of estimating the spatial variation in RF signal intensity within magnetic resonance images of an object is described. The estimate can be used to provide enhanced contrast in a magnetic resonance image by correcting for spatial variation in RF intensities arising from non-uniformities in RF  receiving coils of an MRI machine acquiring the image as well as distortions arising from the object and observation itself. This is achieved through compound imaging of a medium of essentially uniform spin density surrounding the object. From analysis of the surrounding medium, and the location of notional points of RF signal reception, a semi-empirical mathematical formulation of the decay profile of the RF signal intensity within the object is determined. This is then fitted to selected signal intensities from the medium surrounding the object to obtain an estimate of the spatial variation in RF signal intensity within the object.
