Patent CA-2698351-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PETRICOIN EMANUEL F III
IPC: G01N33/53
Filed: 2008-09-05
Abstract: This invention relates, e.g., to a set of calibrants for determining the amount in a sample of an analyte (e.g., a protein, such as a protein that has been post-translationally modified), comprising a plurality of calibrants, which contain a range of amounts (e.g., defined amounts and/or serial dilutions) of the analyte, spanning the expected amount of the analyte in the sample. In each of the calibrants, a defined amount of the analyte is present in the same suitable, biological diluent (e.g., a cell or tissue lysate, or a bodily fluid). In one embodiment of the invention, the diluent reflects the same or a similar biological milieu (proteins, lipids, serum proteins, serum matrix proteins, etc.) as that in the sample in which the analyte to be measured is present. In embodiments of the invention, a single calibrant (e.g., a cell lysate) may comprise as many as hundreds of analytes, and can be used for the quantification of those hundreds of analytes in a sample. Methods are described for performing an assay (e.g. RPMA analysis), in which the calibrants of a set of calibrants of the invention are immobilized on each of the surfaces to which samples to be analyzed are immobilized, thereby providing an internal calibration curve for quantifying an RPMA assay.

Abstract: A sampling device having an elongate member positioned in the connecting section of a swing type auger is pro-vided. The member has a channel facing into a flow of particulate matter passing through the connecting section and an open end.  The member is attached to a rotating shaft. When the auger system is in operation and particulate matter is flowing through the connecting section, the arm rotates perpendicularly through the flow of particulate material and a portion of this particulate material is collected in the channel of the rotating member. The rotation of the member causes the collected particulate material to move along the length of the rotating member until it is thrown out the open end of the member, where a sample can be collected through an aperture in the side of the connecting section.

IPC: E03D1/14
Filed: 2010-04-26
Abstract: Dual flush toilets save water by allowing the user flushing to evacuate liquid wastes to use a smaller volume of water from the toilet tank than is necessary for solid waste evacuation. The Invention described in this Patent Application restricts the dual flush functionality to a retrofittable handle. This handle produces a full flush by means of a timer activated by rotation of the handle to the large volume position. In rotating the handle to the large flush position a mechanical timer is wound and causes a retractable latch to project and hold the flush arm in its upward position for the period dictated by the timer. Upon release of the arm the flapper returns to seal the tank allowing for recharge with a fresh supply of water. If the small volume position is selected with the flush handle then the smaller volume of flush water as limited by the flush chain float position will be released.

Abstract: A furrow opener apparatus attachable to an implement has a trailing arm with a packer wheel at the rear end, and a furrow opener attached forward of the packer wheel. An actuator moves the trailing arm between a lowered operating position and a raised transport position. A latch mechanism engages the implement frame and the trailing arm when the actuator is operated to move the trailing arm to the transport position, preventing the trailing ami from moving downward. A release mechanism moves the latch mechanism to an unlatched position when the actuator is operated to move the trailing arm from the raised transport position to the lowered operating position, allowing the trailing arm to move down from the transport position.
