Abstract: Novel bifuntional reagents useful in providing extended in vivo lifetimes of physiologically active agents are provided. The reagents comprise conjugates of a first binding member specific for a target in a mammalian host, such as a toxin, drug of abuse, microbe, autoreactive immune cell, infected or tumourous cell, antigen presenting cell, or the like, joined to a second binding member specific for along-lived blood component, including cells, such as an erythrocyte, platelet or endothelial cell, and plasma proteins. These conjugates find use by extending the lifetime and availability of the target binding member for coupling the target and the blood component and thereby reducing the concentration free target, modulating the volume of distribution of the target, targeting the target to sites of enhanced immune response, facilitating target clearance from the bloodstream, or extending the stimulation of an immunogen.
Patent CA-2626448-A1 (CA)
Inventor: YOO TAE KUN
IPC: G02F1/13357
Filed: 2006-05-04
Abstract: A backlight unit (1) for a flat panel display such as an LCD or as a light source for advertising displays or for general illumination purposes. The backlight unit consists of a light guide panel (10), a series of LED sources (31) mounted on a printed circuit board (33) and a cooling radiator (50), the LEDs being mounted together with the PCB and the radiator in a groove (13) on the back surface (10b) of the light guide. The elasticity of the groove walls holds the components in place (press-fit). The light sources are thus mounted inside the light guide and not at the guide edge. The arrangement allows a simplification in the assembly process. 
The radiator is also mounted inside the groove and conducts the heat dissipated by the sources to the back surface of the light guide. The radiator and the PCBs (also flexible ones) can be fitted in a curved groove, depending on the light guide configuration. It is also possible to produce planar light guides with curved (fig.8) instead of rectangular principle surfaces or non-planar curved geometries in three dimensions (fig.17). 
The light guide principle light emitting surface exhibits either a plurality of notches (11), an unevenly distributed dot pattern, a printed dot pattern or a diffuse surface in order to better distribute the light. 
A white film (21) arranged at the bottom of the groove helps to redistribute the light from the sources and to make the LEDs and their associated wiring (35) less visible from the front viewing side. 
A reflection film (12) on the back surface of the light guide is also provided. Various embodiments include different cooling radiator configurations (figs.5a-5g), a closed groove with one entrance (13a) (for the wiring), arrays of LEDs on several sides of the guide (fig.15) and a slim guide variant (fig.19), in which an additional supporting substrate (10) attached to the guide helps to accommodate the groove whose depth is greater than the thickness of the slim guide (10c).
