Title: Food disinfection using ozone
Inventor: YUAN JAMES
IPC: A23L3/3409
Filed: 2001-03-08
Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for decreasing the bacteria count of a fo od commodity eg. meat without affecting its overall organoleptic quality (taste , odor, and color). This is accomplished using a treatment fluid comprising ozone, which is injected into a treatment chamber containing the food commodity. Some water is preferably added to obtain better contact of the ozone with the food by forming a thin film of ozonated water on the food surface. Spices and/or other ingredients may preferably be added with the water. The food is placed in a tumbler and the tumbler is set in motion. During treatment good contact between the treatment fluid and the food commodity is obtained by reversibly oscillating the tumbler. A log reduction  of 40 % or more in bacteria count may be obtained as compared without the ozone.

Patent CA-2401520-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HAGIO HIDENORI
IPC: B32B27/08
Filed: 2002-09-06
Abstract: A laminated sheet having cloth-like texture can be obtained with polymeric film constructed of at least two layers being laminated over a non-woven fabric, while part of the polymeric film layer contacting the non-woven fabric penetrates into spaces between the fibers of the non-woven fabric to integrate said members into a combined body. It is suitable for uses as packaging materials and personal hygiene products. All the polymeric film layers are formed from resin containing inorganic filler, and when the laminated sheet is subjected to a drawing process, the resulting laminated sheet imparts high water vapor transmission rate and high hydrostatic head. In case the polymeric film layer does not contain inorganic filler, laminated sheets having high stretch can be obtained.

Abstract: An exemplary mobile plating system and method are provided for performing a plating process using virtually any known or available deposition technology for coating or plating. The mobile plating system may include a vacuum chamber positioned in a mobile storage volume, an external vacuum pump, and a control module to control the operation of some or all of the operations of the external vacuum pump. The external vacuum pump is positioned in the mobile storage volume when the mobile plating system is in transit, and is positioned external to the mobile storage volume when the mobile plating system is stationary and in operation. The external vacuum pump may be mounted on a skid, and, in operation, the external vacuum pump couples with the vacuum chamber to assist with producing a desired pressure in the vacuum chamber. The external vacuum pump couples with the vacuum chamber using a flexible piping segment to reduce and/or eliminate any mechanical vibrations within the vacuum chamber and within the mobile storage volume due to the operation of the external vacuum pump. An exemplary method for using a mobile plating system is provided that includes locating the mobile plating system at a desired location for plating, positioning an external vacuum pump from an interior position of a mobile storage volume of the mobile plasma plating system to an exterior position, and coupling the external vacuum pump to a vacuum chamber within the mobile storage volume of the mobile plasma plating system using a flexible piping segment.

Inventor: BRYDGES-PRICE RICHARD IAN
IPC: F42B12/34
Filed: 2001-07-24
Abstract: A non-lethal projectile or a projectile for delivery of a substance (optional) has a tubular body casing (1) which surrounds a compartment (2) for containment of the substance. The compartment (2) coaxially supports a hollow tube (5) projecting forward within an ogival nose cap (8). An inflatable membrane (7) is located within the nose cap (8). On target impact the nose is displaced and permits a small amount of substance from compartment (2) to bleed through opening (6) allowing piston (4) to move forward uncovering ports (16). This action allows pressure gas to pass through the ports (16) and ducts to inflate the membrane (7). The piston is also free to move forward to discharge the substance through needle (5).The bag (7) thus expands rapidly and prevents excess penetration whilst spreading the impact energy over a wide area. The construction avoids the need for a charge to be contained within the projectile itself.

Title: Method and system for implementing a combined investment
Inventor: FRATTALONE NICHOLAS
IPC: G06Q40/00
Filed: 2001-08-06
Abstract: A method and apparatus for implementing a combined investment. Financing is obtaining by collateralizing a first investment representing ownership interests of a plurality of independent investors. The financing is used to acquire a second investment. At least a portion of any returns on the second investment is applied to the benefit of the independent investors. In this manner, investors effectively get the benefit of two investments for the cost of one. By differentiating the asset classes of the two investments, greater diversification is provided. Through pooling of investor capital and/or fractional share ownership, even greater diversification and better investment opportunities may be achieved. By selecting complementary investments, e.g.  growth oriented securities and income-producing real estate, a beneficial synergistic effect may be obtained when the investments are cooperatively managed, e.g. by cross-utilizing returns, with a common objective of providing enhanced returns.

Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à des amorces oligonucléotidiques, marquées chacune au moyen d'une paire assurant un transfert d'énergie moléculaire, ladite paire comprenant un donneur d'énergie et un accepteur d'énergie. Lesdites amorces oligonucléotidiques sont utilisées pour détecter la présence d'une ou de plusieurs séquences nucléotidiques d'identification. Deux amorces oligonucléotidiques spécifiques d'une séquence, l'une spécifique d'une première séquence d'identification et l'autre de la deuxième séquence d'identification, ainsi qu'une amorce inverse, sont employées dans un mélange produit par réaction en chaîne de la polymérase (PCR) qui contient une matrice d'acide nucléique. En utilisant seulement sa séquence d'identification complémentaire comme matrice, chaque amorce spécifique d'une séquence dirige l'amplification. Les produits de la PCR qui en résultent, représentant la première et la deuxième séquence d'identification, sont détectés par amplification PCR qui utilise deux amorces marquées par transfert d'énergie moléculaire, chacune étant spécifique du produit de la PCR représentant soit la première, soit la deuxième séquence d'identification, ainsi qu'une autre amorce qui est complémentaire des produits de la PCR représentant les deux séquences d'identification.
