Patent CA-2379095-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TANIGUCHI MASARU
IPC: C12N15/85
Filed: 2000-08-29
Abstract: Cells suffering from the deletion or inhibition of the function of expressin g a normal gene (wild type gene) in alleles corresponding to a trapped gene which are applicable also to in vitro cell differentiation systems other tha n ES cells; a method of preparing the same; a gene trap method with the use of  the above cells; and an antisense promoter transfer vector to be used in the  preparation of the above cells. By transferring the gene trap vector into cells, a trap clone can be efficiently obtained. By inserting a powerful promoter into a definite position in a mutated locus, wherein the insertion of the gene trap vector of the trapped clone has occurred, in the direction opposite to the endogenous gene, moreover, the antisense RNA against the trapped gene is compulsively transcribed and thus the transcription product from the wild type gene is disrupted.

Abstract: An oven-stable edible moisture barrier for food products is provided.  This oven-stable moisture barrier is useful in preventing moisture, migration within a multi-component food product between components having different water activities even when the multi-component food product is exposed to elevated temperatures. The oven-stable edible moisture barrier of this invention is formed from a composition comprising an edible, low melting oil having a melting point of about 35°C or lower and an edible, high melting fat having a melting point of about 70°C or higher, wherein the edible, low melting oil and the edible, high melting fat are co-micromilled at a temperature above the melting point of the edible, low melting oil but below the melting point of the edible, high melting fat to form a cream-type mixture:    This composition has unique thermal and mechanical properties that makes it ideal as an edible moisture barrier for use in food products, especially for baking applications.

Title: Method of waste treatment
Inventor: TIMMENGA HUBERT
IPC: C02F11/13
Filed: 2002-04-11
Abstract: A method of treating an animal waste slurry so as to efficiently extract nutrients, and which can be performed in a zero-discharge system, comprises flocculating the slurry, processing, e.g. filtering, the flocculated slurry to separate liquid from solid material, drying the solid material, processing the liquid to extract ammonium, phosphorous and potassium from the slurry, all within 24 hours, and preferably on average within 12 hours, of production of the waste material by animals. Since the urates of potassium and ammonium in the slurry take a few hours to break down, they remain in crystalline form and therefore a larger portion of the total amount of potassium and ammonium in the slurry can be extracted.

Title: Child swing
Inventor: PAESANG CHINAWUT P
IPC: A47D9/02
Filed: 2002-05-07
Abstract: A child swing provides a child support that is supportable by a support frame.  The child swing may be configured between a stowed and deployed configuration by providing a collapsible child support and a folding support frame. The collapsible child support may include collapsible hangers and a collapsible child receptacle. Frame members of the frame can be connected by hinges which allow a user to conveniently fold the frame into a compact position such that the folded frame may then be placed in the child support. The child support may be driven by an electric motor mounted to the support frame. A periodic motion output from the electric motor may be transferred to swinging motion of the child support by connecting a hanger arm to a post of the support frame which is coupled to the electric motor. In the preferred embodiment, a releasable latch is used to retain the hanger arm to the post. A coupling between the support frame and child support provides a user with a readily accessible device for converting the swing between deployed and stowed configurations.

Title: Improved interface patch clamping
Inventor: OWEN DAVID GERAINT
IPC: G01N33/487
Filed: 2001-03-21
Abstract: A novel development of the conventional patch clamp technique for measurement of whole cell electrical activity provides for cells to be suspended in a liquid medium at a liquid/air interface (by virtue of the effect of surface tension at the interface) whereby cells are accessible at the interface to a microstructure electrode (such as a pipette tip (3)) to which a cell can attach to form an electrical seal, for the purpose of whole cell voltage clamp recording. The electrode forms a high resistance electrical seal with a cell suspended at the interface without the need to press the cell against a solid support surface. The step of bringing the electrode into contact with the interface is achieved not by relative movement, but by applying a differential pressure across the interface to cause the meniscus to be lowered and so to "bulge" (16) towards and into contact with the electrode. Also provided are apparatus for carrying out the interface patch clamp technique and control logic for operating a computer to carry out the technique.
