Title: Optical fiber cable connector with integrated cable splitting
Inventor: TOOTOONIAN MOHAMMAD
IPC: H04B10/40
Filed: 2009-08-26
Abstract: An optical cable connector is disclosed herein. The optical cable connector includes a housing; an aperture on a side of the housing for receiving unsplit duplex optical cable; a sharp edge, disposed within the housing and positioned to split a portion of the optical cable into two optical fibers when the cable is inserted into the aperture, the fibers for carrying optical signals; and electro-optical transceivers, disposed within the housing and aligned with the two optical fibers to receive the optical signals, the transceivers configured to convert the optical signals into electrical signals. Integrating the sharp edge within the connector precludes a user from having to manually split optical cable prior to inserting the cable into the connector, thereby making the connector relatively easy to use and reducing the likelihood the user will be injured.

Title: A process for the production of transgenic plants having a high starch content and yield and a high amylose/amylopectin ratio
Inventor: POZUETA ROMERO FRANCISCO JAVIER
IPC: C12N15/82
Filed: 2009-09-10
Abstract: A process for the production of transgenic plants that have a high starch content and yield and a high amylose / amylopectin ratio. The alpha-1 ,4-glucan phosphorylases (GPs) catalyze the reversible cutting of bonds .alpha.-1, 4 of the non-reducing ends of homopolysaccharides with at least 5 glucose molecules such as starch, maltodextrin and glycogen, leading to production of glucose-1-phosphate. The GPs in bacteria and animal cells are responsible for the breakdown of glycogen. Although the increase in GP activity leads to a reduction in intracellular levels of glycogen in bacteria and animal cells, this invention discloses the production of plants that have high starch levels and yields and high amylose / amylopectin ratio, as result of the expression of genes coding for GPs.
