Inventor: BERD DAVID
IPC: C12N5/08
Filed: 2000-03-15
Abstract: The present invention is directed to mammalian cells conjugated to a hapten and methods of making and using thereof. Conjugating hapten to mammalian cells is a useful way of preventing cells from growing and may be used in the place of any conventional treatment, for example, irradiation. Thus, the invention relates to mammalian cells in general, for example human cells, which cells are in substantially no growth phase and a method of placing the cells in a substantially no growth phase by conjugating them to a hapten. The invention is further directed to compositions containing hapten-modified tumor cells and extracts and methods of treating cancer by administering a therapeutically effective amount of a composition containing a tumor cell or tumor cell extract to a subject in need of such treatment. The tumor cells and extracts of the invention and compositions thereof are capable of eliciting T-lymphocytes that have a property of infiltrating a mammalian tumor, eliciting an inflammatory immune response to a mammalian tumor, eliciting a delayed-type hypersensitivity response to a mammalian tumor and/or stimulating T-lymphocytes  in vitro . The invention also relates to an effective vaccination schedule useful for inducing an anti-tumor response in a mammalian patient suffering from cancer by inducing at least one of the following: tumor necrosis, tumor regression, tumor inflammation, tumor infiltration by activated T-lymphocytes, delayed-type hypersensitivity response, and prolongation of patient survival. Furthermore, the invention relates to an improved, simplified and economical method for preparing the hapten-conjugated tumor cells for administration as a vaccine by eliminating a separate step of treating cells (by irradiation, for example) to place them in a no growth phase.

Abstract: Disparities between optimum engine thrust for aircraft operation and power necessary to drive an ancillary machines such an electrical power generator can cause problems within a turbine engine. Clearly, it is necessary to continue developing sufficient electrical power for control and other systems within an aircraft despite aircraft thrust requirements. Previously, some compressed air flow has been bypassed in order to maintain compressor stability, but unfortunately such bypass systems within turbine engines can have a thrust recovery regime such that there is excess thrust in comparison with that actually necessary. In accordance with the present invention, a proportion of the compressed air flow is bled directly through a bleed path (105) to an exhaust nozzle (104) of an engine such that the compressor core (112) can continue to provide work to drive an ancillary machine (111) whilst engine thrust is limited to that actually required, achieving a significant saving in terms of fuel consumption and wear and tear upon brakes, etc under low power operation.

Abstract: Electrically conductive rods (14,16) across a gateway are electrified by a voltage amplifier (24), powered from a dry cell battery (26) by way of a PIR sensor (34), to provide a deterrent to animals. The PIR sensor (34) is physically located to overlook the gateway guarded by the rods (14,16). When the PIR sensor (34) senses the presence of an animal at or near the gateway it automatically causes power from the battery (26) to be delivered to the voltage amplifier (24), which in turn charges the rods (14,16). Otherwise the battery (26) is isolated from the voltage amplifier (24), whereby the voltage amplifier (24) is not activated and the rods (14,16) are not charged unless or until energised in response to the PIR sensor (34). An LED shows when the rods (14,16) are electrified and a manually operable switch (28) allows the battery (26) to be disconnected for maintenance etc.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to the polishing of a silicon-on-insulator transfer wafer (102) having a front surface with a circumferential lip (112) around a circular recess (122). In one version, the circular recess on the front surface of the wafer is masked by filling the recess with spin-on-glass (133). The front surface of the wafer is exposed to an etchant to preferentially etch away the circumferential lip, while the circular recess is masked by the spin-on-glass. The spin-on-glass is removed, and the front surface of the transfer wafer is polished. Other methods of removing the circumferential lip include applying a higher pressure to the circumferential lip in a polishing process, and directing a pressurized fluid jet at the base of the circumferential lip.
