Patent CA-2439288-A1 (CA)
Title: Method for protecting cells and tissues from ionizing radiation toxicity with .alpha.,.beta. unsaturated aryl sulfones
Inventor: REDDY PREMKUMAR E
IPC: A61K31/425
Filed: 2002-02-28
Abstract: Pre-treatment with .alpha., .beta. unsaturated aryl sulfones protects normal cells from the toxic side effects of ionizing radiation. Administration of a radioprotective .alpha., .beta. unsaturated aryl sulfone compound to a patie nt prior to anticancer radiotherapy reduces the cytotoxic side effects of the radiation on normal cells. The radioprotective effect of the .alpha., .beta. unsaturated aryl sulfone allows the clinician to safely increase the dosage of anticancer radiation. In some instances, amelioration of toxicity following inadvertent radiation exposure may be mitigated with administration of .alpha., .beta. unsatured arylsulfone.

Inventor: SAXBY DAVID J
IPC: A23K1/165
Filed: 2002-01-11
Abstract: A fish, krill or fish by-product hydrolysate is added to canola meal or like cereal. Phytase enzymes are added to the liquid material with the pH and temperature of the mixture being held at optimum for the phytase enzymes. Th e mixture is stirred for a predetermined time period to incubate the mixture under the desired pH and temperature conditions. Thereafter, the mixture is acid stabilised for storage and may further be dried or co-dried with other feed ingredients. The phytic acid in the canola meal is transformed and releases the previously bound phosphorous. The quantity of phytic acid in th e canola meal is reduced significantly thereby reducing the antinutritional factors in the cereal. The benefits include a reduction of the phosphate necessary to be added as a supplement to the diet and an increase in protein absorption by the fish or animal. Further, less phytate bound phosphorous is added to the environment. Other enzymes and cereals having similar utility a re contemplated.

Patent CA-2451886-A1 (CA)
Inventor: THOMPSON ALBERT N
IPC: E01H4/02
Filed: 2003-12-03
Abstract: An ice scraper blade assembly is used with a scraper for resurfacing a sheet of ice. The assembly includes a metal blade carrier beam of uniform, massive cross section. On its leading side, the beam has base and top surfaces meeting at an acute angle at a leading edge of the beam. A blade receiving relief in the top surface at the leading edge seats a blade in the form of an elongate plate with a bevelled scraping edge. The blade is engageable in the relief with the scraping edge projecting beyond the leading edge of the beam. A clamping bar extends along and is bolted to the beam and engages the top surface of the blade to clamp the blade into the relief. The currently preferred beam is cast iron. A beam of this configuration is not subject to significant thermal warping or bending, so that complete assembling and final adjustment of the blade assembly before shipping is not required.  Instead, the beam may be a quasi-permanent part of the scraper and blades can be replaced in the field. This limits shipping and handling to the smaller, much lighter weight blades rather than the complete assembly.

Title: Method of the wavelet encoding of a meshed object
Inventor: GIOIA PATRICK
IPC: H04N19/63
Filed: 2002-07-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of coding an object having at least two dimensions which is associated with a basic mesh comprising a set of basic surfaces and with coefficients in a base of wavelets corresponding to local modifications to said basic mesh.The inventive method delivers a global data flow that can be used to reconstruct the object. According to the invention, said wavelet coefficients are partitioned into at least two disjoint subsets each of which is encoded independently. Subsequently, positional data are inserted by the method into the global data flow which can be used to locate wavelet coefficients relative to a portion of the object in said global data flow, in such a way as to enable a selective reconstruction of said portion using the coefficients of at least one of said subsets.

Abstract: A communications network which is capable of effectively and efficiently handling mobility of wireless user terminals (118) between access point nodes (104, 106, 108) of a packet-switched network with minimal overhead and packet loss, and a method for using the same. The communications network employs a packet-switched core network (102) and a plurality of access points (104, 106, 108) coupled to the core network. Each access point (104, 106, 108) is adapted to provide any user terminal (118) with wireless communications access to the core network (102) when that user terminal becomes affiliated with that access point. The system and method further employ ad-hoc routing techniques during handoff of a wireless user terminal between access point nodes of the core network to enable the network to maintain multiple paths via which data packets are provided to the user terminal during handoff to substantially eliminate packet loss during handoff.
