Inventor: STASSINOPOULOS ADONIS
IPC: A61K38/06
Filed: 2005-10-31
Abstract: Methods are provided for improved quenching of undesired side reactions upon treating a red blood cell composition with a pathogen inactivating compound comprising a nucleic acid binding ligand and a functional group which is, or which is capable of forming, an electrophilic group. In some embodiments, the improved methods use a suitably high concentration of quencher that comprises a nucleophilic functional group that is capable of covalently reacting with the electrophilic group, wherein the treatment occurs within a desired pH range to provide sufficient quenching. Preferred quenchers for use in some of the methods include thiols, such as glutathione, which have been suitably neutralized such that addition to a red blood cell composition results in the desired concentration of quencher at a desirable pH range of 6.8 to 8.5.

Abstract: A method and computer-readable medium are provided for formula-based document retention. According to the method, a retention formula and a retention action are defined for one or more items. The retention formula is utilized to calculate a retention date for each item. The retention action specifies the action that should be taken on or after the retention date. The retention date for one or more items is initially calculated using the retention formula for the items. A retention service may be periodically executed to identify any items having a retention date earlier than the current date. If any items are identified that have a retention date earlier than the current date, the retention service recalculates the retention date for these items utilizing the corresponding retention formula. If the recalculated retention date for any item is still prior to the current date, the retention action for the item is executed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for power level control of a display device and an apparatus for carrying out the method. Classically, a power level mode defining a subfield organization to be used for subfield coding is selected as a function of the average power level of the picture to be displayed for keeping constant the power consumption of the display device. According to the invention, it is proposed to select the power level mode as a function of the input frame frequency in such a way as to have as little as possible deviations from nominal peak white and full white values at the same time that an overloading of the panel power supply is prevented. More particularly, the number of sustain pulses within the video frame and selected by the power level mode is modified as a function of the input frame frequency.
