Title: Pavement patch material
Inventor: PARKISON ROBERT LOWEL
IPC: C08L95/00
Filed: 2000-08-15
Abstract: The pavement patch composition of the present invention comprises a lightweight aggregate (14) and highly modified polymer asphalt binder (12). The composition is formed by heating the binder to a flowable state, mixing the flowable binder with a lightweight aggregate, and then allowing it to co ol into a solid form. The pavement patch composition (10) is used to repair voi ds in pavement, such as pot holes, cracks and depressions. It is applied by heating solid pavement patch composition to a flowable state and applying it  to the void, or on a surface in need of repair, and then allowed to cool. Th e resulting patch is self-adhering, strong and flexible. The formulation of th e pavement patch composition may be adjusted for specific use in a cold climat e, a moderate climate, a warmer climate, or for use in various traffic applications.

Patent CA-2384088-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SMEDLEY JOHN C
IPC: C25B1/26
Filed: 2000-09-01
Abstract: A vacuum operated electrolytic generator can be used to produce a chlorine dioxide solution or a mist of chlorine dioxide from a buffered aqueous alkali metal chlorite solution in one pass through an electrolytic cell. The cell contains a high surface area anode, a corrosion-resistant highly conductive cathode, and a cation ion exchange membrane between the anode and cathode.  An eductor is used on the anolyte effluent line to create a vaccum and draw the anolyte through the cell. Either motive water or a motive inert gas (such as air) is used in the eductor. Preferably, an eductor is used in the catholyte effluent line. An ascending anolyte effluent line with a non-corrosive check valve leads from the cell to the anode eductor. Sensors are used to monitor the composition of the anolyte effluent and/or the anolyte feed. The final product is a chlorine dioxide solution when water is used for the eduction.  The final product is a mist consisting essentially of gaseous chlorine dioxide, an inert gas, and water vapor when an inert gas is used for the eduction. The mist is useful for application crop, soils, produce such as vegetables, fruit, and tobacco, fields, storage cellars, and the like.

Title: Method for immobilizing substances
Inventor: YANO KAZUYOSHI
IPC: C12Q1/6837
Filed: 2000-11-02
Abstract: A method for immobilizing a material comprising placing a material to be immobilized on the surface of a support and then forming a plasma-polymerize d film; and an immobilized material which has been immobilized by using the method. Holding a material to be immobilized utilizing a plasma-polymerized film leads to a significant reduction in the damage to the material and also  the liberation of the material from the support. Further, the immobilized material is present on the resultant surface of the support and maintains it s bonding activity, which results in the application of the method, for exampl e, to the indirect immobilization of biotinilated polynucleotide and to the detection of a ligand through immobilization of a protein capable of bonding  such as an antibody.

Patent CA-2395962-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GARELLI-MILIUS NATHALIE
IPC: A61K8/66
Filed: 2000-12-19
Abstract: A method for transforming food sugars, which acts in two ways: directly and indirectly. The method is characterised in that the main direct action consists in inhibiting glycolysis by transforming the cariogenic polyoses into non-cariogenic polyols (for example, sorbitol); the indirect action consists in the use of products derived from the polyose degradation as substrates by the inventive enzymatic system so as to reinforce prevention of plaque formation, through five mechanisms: stimulating saliva flux with the polyols; reinforcing the saliva antibacterial power by activating the physiological lactoperoxidase/by-pothiocyanate system with hydrogen peroxide; decreasing the number and pathogenicity of the bacterial environment stabilizing delta-lactones, which are not bacterial substrates for plaque formation; remineralizing the enamel by stabilizing the calcium phosphate solution with sorbitol. The invention is applicable to bucco-dental hygiene.

Title: Electrochemical sensor for the specific detection of peracetic acid in aqueous solutions using pulse amperometric methods
Inventor: SCHINDLY BRIAN E
IPC: G01N27/38
Filed: 2001-02-07
Abstract: An electrochemical sensor (A, A') is specific for the detection of peracetic acid in a solution which also contains hydrogen peroxide. A  potential is applied between a reference electrode (120, 120') and a working electrode (118, 118').  A read voltage (fig. 7) is selectively pulsed to the working electrode and then through the solution to a counter electrode (122, 122'). The current flowing between the working electrode and the counter electrode is dependent on the peracetic acid concentration in the solution (fig. 6). By careful selection of the read voltage, the contribution of hydrogen peroxide to the current flow is virtually negligible. The sensor effectively measures peracetic acid concentrations in the range generally employed in sterilization and disinfection baths (100-3000 ppm.).

Title: Image recording for a document generation system
Inventor: DUGGAN CHARLES F
IPC: G03B15/06
Filed: 2001-05-18
Abstract: An automated image recording and document generation system is disclosed that generates identity documents using image and text information that is input to the system using computer controlled video cameras. The image and text information is combined with other stored images, such as logs, signatures and seals, to produce official identity documents such as identity cards, drivers licenses and passports. Prior to use the system automatically enters a setup and calibration phase wherein a video camera images a backdrop having borders on the left and right vertical edges and the digitized video output is analyzed to adjust the camera zoom and to locate the center of the backdrop in front of which an individual will sit or stand to have their picture taken.  The image of a person whose picture is taken is analyzed and is centered horizontally in a picture by adding or subtracting columns of background color to the left or right side of the picture as needed. The system also adjusts the iris of the camera for brightness. After setup an individual whose picture is to be taken is positioned in front of the backdrop and their pictures is taken. The picture is analyzed to locate the edges of the face of the individual. The camera is tilted under control of the computer to roughly position the individuals face vertically in the picture. Thereafter, the system adds or subtracts scan lines of tire backdrop color above the face of the individual to finally position the face in the picture. The picture is also electronically adjusted for gamma and picture brightness.

Title: Vacuum cleaner having a cyclone-type dust-collecting apparatus
Inventor: OH JANG-KEUN
IPC: B04C9/00
Filed: 2002-11-15
Abstract: The cyclone-type dust collecting apparatus for a vacuum cleaner can reduce reverse flow of dirt and kill any bacteria in the dirt-collecting receptacle.   The cyclone-type dust-collecting apparatus has a protruding flow path formed on the front side of the cyclone body and a lamp-positioning groove depressed inwardly at one side of the dirt-collecting receptacle for an ultraviolet lamp disposed in the cleaner body to apply ultraviolet rays radiated into the dirt-collecting receptacle. Accordingly, various bacteria inside the dirt collecting receptacle can be killed as the ultraviolet lamp disposed in the lamp positioning groove of the dirt collecting receptacle continuously applies the ultraviolet rays into the dirt collecting receptacle while the cleaner is on. Moreover, reverse flow of the dirt through the protruding flow path can be reduced as the storage level of the dirt stored near the protruding flow path of the dirt collecting receptacle is lowered and the space between the dirt near the protruding flow path of the dirt collecting receptacle and the cyclone body is expanded.
