Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods, compositions and reaction mixtures for multiplexing COLD-PCR/ice-COLD-PCR to enrich simultaneously several low abundance alleles (mutant target sequences) from a sample. The invention also involves COLD-PCR/ice-COLD-PCR amplification performed on DNA fragments that have different melting temperatures, and therefore different critical denaturation temperatures, in a graded temperature approach such that mutation enrichment is achieved on all diverse DNA fragments simultaneously (temperature-independent COLD-PCR or TI- COLD-PCR).The invention also involves methods for enabling identification of variant- sequence alleles in the presence of a large excess of non- variant alleles in nucleic acids without the complication of polymerase-introduced errors or other primer- introduced artifacts.
Patent CA-2833384-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DIVAN DEEPAKRAJ MALHAR
IPC: H02M1/00
Filed: 2012-04-18
Abstract: A sag corrector apparatus for providing voltages temporarily (ride-through) to a load during momentary electrical disturbances in the power supply line. In one embodiment, the disclosed apparatus compensates for voltage sags by using a variable duty cycle boost converter to boost the sagged line voltage to resemble desired voltage levels during occurrence of voltage sags. The boosted voltage available to a connected load during a sag depends on a sequence of operation of various control pulses. Duty cycle of the boost converter is controlled by changing the width (duration) of the control pulses. To prevent voltage shoot-throughs from over-boosting, an energy clamp circuit is provided to dissipate excess energy. Embodiments of the sag corrector circuit can be additionally integrated with power protection functions.

Patent CA-2845613-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SHULOCK DAMIEN J
IPC: A61F2/44
Filed: 2014-03-11
Abstract: A selectively expanding spine cage has a minimized cross section in its unexpanded state that is smaller than the diameter of the neuroforamen through which it passes in the distracted spine. The cage conformably engages between the endplates of the adjacent vertebrae to effectively distract the anterior disc space, stabilize the motion segments and eliminate pathologic spine motion. Expanding selectively (anteriorly, along the vertical axis of the spine) rather than uniformly, the cage height increases and holds the vertebrae with fixation forces greater than adjacent bone and soft tissue failure forces in natural lordosis. Stability is thus achieved immediately, enabling patient function by eliminating painful motion. The cage shape intends to rest proximate to the anterior column cortices securing the desired spread and fixation, allowing for bone graft in, around, and through the implant for arthrodesis whereas for arthroplasty it fixes to endpoints but cushions the spine naturally.

Abstract: A fixed cutter drill bit that includes one or more integrally-mounted rotating disc with cutters around the circumference of the disc. Each disc is mounted to bearings to handle the torque generated and the weight on bit required to cut the formation. The mounting angle of the disc generates a torque causing the disc to rotate. As the disc rotates, new cutters are presented to the formation. The discs may vary in size, mounting location and number so as to cover entire bladed or just a certain portions of blades.
