Abstract: L'invention concerne des argiles organiques à base de composés d'ammonium quaternaire de types spécifiques. Ces argiles peuvent être remarquablement efficaces dans la préparation de nanocomposites, et peuvent comprendre le produit de réaction d'une argile smectite et d'un composé d'ammonium quaternaire susceptible de renfermer deux radicaux estérifiés (d'où l'appellation <= composé d'ammonium quaternaire diestérique >=). Ce composé d'ammonium quaternaire diestérique peut être présent dans un adjuvant avec d'autres composés d'ammonium quaternaire comprenant des radicaux estérifiés, notamment des composés ayant trois radicaux estérifiés (d'où l'appellation <= composés d'ammonium quaternaire triestériques >=) oudes composés comprenant un seul radical estérifié (d'où l'appellation <= composés d'ammonium quaternaire monoestériques >=). Lorsqu'on utilise ce mélange de composés d'ammonium quaternaire, la réaction se produit entre l'argile smectite et le mélange de composés d'ammonium quaternaire. Le composé d'ammonium quaternaire diestérique peut être présent en concentration supérieure à 55 % en poids du mélange quaternaire, chaque composé d'ammonium quaternaire triestérique pouvant être présent en concentration inférieure à 25 % en poids. Les acides gras correspondant aux esters dans ce mélange présentent un degré d'insaturation permettant à l'indice d'iode de varier entre environ 20 et environ 90.

Inventor: HERRON PAUL
IPC: C12N15/76
Filed: 2002-07-31
Abstract: The present invention provides materials and methods for introducing genetic disruptions in bacterial genetic material, especially in that of Streptomyces spp.. A novel transposon is provided, which has an origin of transfer between inverted repeat sequences. The transposon may also include a genetic marker. The transposon introduces a disruption into DNA of interest, which disruption may then be conjugated into host bacteria, including bacteria of other species or strains.      The host bacteria is incubated at conditions suitable for homologous recombination between the conjugated DNA and the host DNA. The effect of the disruption in different genetic backgrounds can therefore be investigated. The disruption may be stored as a mobile genetic element ready for transfer to a test host.

Title: Method for detecting cell proliferative disorders
Inventor: SIDRANSKY DAVID
IPC: C12Q1/6883
Filed: 1997-08-28
Abstract: The present invention relates to the detection of a cell proliferative disorder associated with alterations of microsatellite DNA in a sample. The microsatellite DNA can be contained within any of a variety of samples, such as urine, sputum, bile, stool, cervical tissue, saliva, tears or cerebral spinal fluid. The invention is a method to detect an allelic imbalance by assaying microsatellite DNA. Allelic imbalance is detected by observing an abnormality in an allele, such as an increase or decrease in microsatellite DNA which is at or corresponds to an allele. An increase can be detected as the appearance of a new allele. In practicing the invention, DNA amplification methods, particularly polymerase chain reactions, are useful for amplifying the DNA. DNA analysis methods can be used to detect such a decrease or increase.The invention is also a method to detect genetic instability of microsatellite DNA. Genetic instability is detected by observing an amplification or deletion of the small, tandem repeat DNA sequences in the microsatellite DNA which is at or corresponds to an allele. The invention is also a kit for practicing these methods.

Title: Data buffer structure for physical and transport channels in a cdma system
Inventor: AGRAWAL AVNEESH
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 2001-10-02
Abstract: A buffer structure for storing symbols received via a number of (e.g., physical or transport) channels. Each channel is associated with a particular time interval (e.g., a radio frame period or a transmission time interval (TTI)) over which the received symbols are processed (e.g., interleaved). The buffer structure includes a buffer and an address generator. The buffer is partitioned into a number of sections. One section is assigned to each channel being processed. Each section can be operated as a circular buffer. The address generator provides addresses for writing symbols to the assigned sections. If the buffer structure is used for the transport channels, the sections can be assigned to the transport channels based on the associated TTIs (e.g., in descending order of TTIs). For each coded composite transport channel (CCTrCH), the transport channels in the CCTrCH can be assigned to sections defined starting from a respective initial location (e.g., the top or bottom of the buffer) and continuing along a respective direction of the buffer (e.g., downward or upward).

Patent CA-2424919-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SHARMA SHIV K
IPC: G02B1/10
Filed: 2001-10-05
Abstract: Cobalt-nickel oxide films of nominal 100 nm thickness, and resistivity as low as 0.06 .OMEGA..cm have been deposited by spin-casting from both aqueous and organic precursor solutions followed by annealing at 450 ~C in air. Films deposited on sapphire substrates exhibit a refractive index of about 1.7 and are relatively transparent in the wavelength region from 0.6 to 10.0 µm.  They are also magnetic. The electrical and spectroscopic properties of the oxides have been studied as a function of x = Co/(Co + Ni) ratio. An increase in film resistivity was found upon substitution of other cations (e.g., Zn2+, Al3+) for Ni in the spinel structure. However, some improvement in the mechanical properties of the films resulted. On the other hand, addition of small amounts of Li decreased the resistivity. A combination of XRD, XPS, UV/Vis and Raman spectroscopy indicated that NiCo2O4 is the primary conducting component and that the conductivity reaches a maximum at this stoichiometry.  When x < 0.67, NiO forms leading to an increase in resistivity; when x > 0.67, the oxide was all spinel but the increased Co content lowered the conductivity. The influence of cation charge state and site occupancy in the spinel structure markedly affects calculated electron band structures and contributes to a reduction of p-type conductivity, the formation of polarons, and the reduction in population of mobile charge carriers that tend to limit transmission in the infrared.
