Patent CA-2341156-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HADLOCK KENNETH G
IPC: C12N15/10
Filed: 1999-08-25
Abstract: A method is provided for screening a library of tester peptides for those tester peptides which inhibit viral infection of a target cell by a vector capable of infecting the target cell in the absence of the tester peptide through binding of a viral surface protein or viral structural protein expressed by the vector to a receptor protein expressed on a surface of the target cell. According to the method, a library of tester peptides are expressed in the target cells. The target cells are then contacted with the vector and those target cells which are not infected by the vector are selected. The method may include additional rounds of negative selection to establish a resistance of the selected target cells to infection as well as positive rounds of selection.

Title: Arm height adjustment mechanism for a chair
Inventor: DART MARK D
IPC: A47C1/03
Filed: 2001-03-20
Abstract: An adjustable armrest assembly for a chair provides adjustment in both the vertical and horizontal position of an armrest member. A tubular member is adapted for telescopic mounting to an upwardly extending support member mounted to the chair.     The support member includes a series of spaced teeth defining indentations therebetween. The armrest assembly includes a pivotable latch member which is secured to the tubular member utilizing a cap member mounted to the upper end of a passage defined by the tubular member. The cap member and the tubular member define cooperating mounting structure for providing pivoting movement of the latch member. The latch member is movable between an engaged position, in which the latch member is engaged with an indentation between the teeth defined by the support member, and a disengaged position in which the latch member is moved out of engagement with the teeth. The latch member includes a manually operable trigger section for moving the latch member between its engaged and disengaged positions. An armrest member includes a base section and an arm cap. The base section of the armrest member is pivotably mounted to the cap member via a fastener which both secures the base section to the cap member and defines the pivot axis about which the base section is pivotable. The cap member includes spaced indentations. A spring member is mounted to the base section, and includes a protrusion received within a selected one of the indentations for providing a click-type detent for selectively maintaining the armrest member in a predetermined angular orientation.

Title: Electromagnetic wave resistivity tool having tilted antenna
Inventor: BITTAR MICHAEL S
IPC: G01V3/28
Filed: 2000-01-24
Abstract: This invention is directed to a downhole method and apparatus for simultaneously determining the horizontal resistivity, vertical resistivity, and relative dip angle for anisotropic earth formations. The present invention accomplishes this objective by using an antenna configuration in which a transmitter antenna (T1) and a receiver antenna (R1) are oriented in non-parallel planes such that the vertical resistivity and the relative dip angle are decoupled. Preferably, either the transmitter or the receiver is mounted in a conventional orientation in a first plane that is normal to the tool axis, and the other antenna is mounted in a second plane that is not parallel to the first plane.     Although this invention is primarily intended for MWD or LWD applications, this invention is also applicable to wireline applications.

Title: Patterned boiled egg and process for producing the same
Inventor: UMEHARA HATSUYO
IPC: A23L15/00
Filed: 1999-12-09
Abstract: The curved surface inside the egg shell of an edible boiled egg is decorated by patterning so as to satisfy consumers' needs for tasteful table setting.  The pattern is formed by using exclusively the inherent components of the egg without introducing any foreign matter thereinto, which causes no fear from the viewpoint of food sanitation management. On the albumen layer (9b or 21a), serving as the background, which has been formed by the coagulation of the albumen (3c) on the curved surface of the boiled egg, a pattern layer (19a) is formed by the coagulation of the yolk (3g). On the yolk layer (9a or 3gf), serving as the background, which has been formed by the coagulation of the yolk (3g) on the curved surface of the boiled egg, a pattern layer (3e) is formed by the coagulation of the albumen. These pattern layers (19a and 3e) are formed by site-selectively and intensively heating the outer surface of the egg shell (3d).

Title: Improved equalization scheme for adsl receivers in presence of an under-sampled or over-sampled transmit ifft
Inventor: GINESI ALBERTO
IPC: H04L27/26
Filed: 2002-03-11
Abstract: This paper presents an improved equalization strategy for ADSL receivers when in presence of transmitters with an IFFT size that does not match the FFT size at the receiver. The proposed techniques involve just minor modifications to the equalizer's training algorithm and allow using a fixed size FFT at the receiver. The performance improvements that result are shown to be quite significant. A simple method to optimize the equalizer strategy without the knowledge of the transmit IFFT size is also discussed.

Title: Stem cell reinforcing material
Inventor: PAN WEIJUN
IPC: A61P15/00
Filed: 2001-07-18
Abstract: A stem cell reinforcing material which, after having been absorbed by the body through peroral ingestion, drip infusion, or the like, can reinforce stem cells comprising somatic stem cells, especially hematopoietic stem cells of bone marrows and embryonic stem cells. The material is obtained by using an isoflavone aglycone having an estrogenic activity which does not inhibit the activity of an enzyme acting on a cell proliferation factor. Such a stem cell reinforcing material has not existed so far at all. The main feature of the stem cell reinforcing material, which performs the excellent function, is that it comprises the isoflavone aglycone functioning to reinforce stem cells.

Abstract: Bandwidth within a communication channel of a computer network is dynamically allocated according to bandwidth requests of devices within the computer network. Such requests may include releases of excess bandwidth in addition to requests for additional bandwidth. In some cases, the communication channel may be a wireless, spread spectrum communication channel. In general, the bandwidth may be dynamically allocated according to priorities of the requests. For example, the requests may be arranged such that those associated with isochronous transmissions within the computer network are accorded the highest priority. A table of such bandwidth allocations may be maintained (e.g., by a network master device) so as to account for bandwidth utilization within the network. Such a table may include bandwidth allocations for the various information streams according to their varying priorities. The table may then by dynamically updated according to the bandwidth requests and any bandwidth allocations made in accordance therewith.
