Title: Recombinant deamidated gliadin antigen
Inventor: WALKER ROGER
IPC: G01N33/564
Filed: 2012-12-03
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for determining whether a subject is suffering from celiac disease by contacting a sample of bodily fluid from the subject, with an antigen formed from a hexamer of a gliadin fusion protein immobilized on a solid support. The gliadin fusion protein of the antigen includes a recombinant deamidated gliadin linked to a tag such as Glutathione-S transferase (GST) protein. The antigen is prepared by immobilizing the gliadin fusion protein on the solid support. The antigen can further include tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) cross-linked to the gliadin fusion protein. When tTG is present, the tTG and recombinant deamidated gliadin are mixed together prior to immobilization to the solid phase.

Inventor: BIANCHI STEFANO
IPC: F16L1/20
Filed: 2012-12-07
Abstract: A method of S-laying a pipeline from a vessel (103) is disclosed. A stinger (104) extends away from an end of the vessel (103) and the pipeline passes over the stinger (104) as it is laid from the vessel (103). The inclination of the pipeline to the horizontal increases as it passes along the stinger (104) and after it leaves the stinger (104) until it reaches an inflection point beyond the end of the stinger (104) at which the inclination of the pipeline to the horizontal is at a maximum. The inclination of the pipeline thereafter reduces until it touches down on the seabed. The method includes providing guides on the stinger (104) that limit lateral movement of the pipeline relative to the stinger (104) and moving the vessel (103) and the stinger (104) during S-laying to an orientation in which the longitudinal axis of the stinger (104) is inclined to the path of the pipeline (101) just laid on the seabed. The step of moving the vessel (103) and the stinger (104) comprises rotating the vessel (103) and the stinger (104) about a vertical axis passing through or adjacent to the inflection point.

Abstract: A method for concurrently transporting and removing trace amount levels of heavy metals such as mercury from produced fluids such as natural gas, with the injection of a complexing agent and a hydrate inhibitor into the pipeline for use in transporting the produced fluid. Volatile mercury in the natural gas is removed while the produced fluid is being transported in the pipeline, with the hydrate inhibitor suppressing or decreasing the formation of the hydrate that would cause plugging in the pipeline. The complexing agent reacts with the volatile mercury in the natural gas, forming precipitate or soluble mercury complexes in the aqueous phase. The aqueous phase containing the hydrate inhibitor, unreacted complexing agent, and mercury complexes is subsequently recovered and can be re-used in the pipeline.
