Patent CA-2445760-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BUCKLEY WAYNE T
IPC: A01C1/02
Filed: 2002-04-18
Abstract: Vigour of the seed of various crops, especially small-seeded crops, is determined by measuring volatile gases emitted from the seed when exposed to various conditions. For example, ethanol produced by canola (Brassica napus and Brassica rapa) seed in an enclosed container stored for 24 hours at room temperature after the seed has been made up to 20 % moisture is measured by gas chromatography, other gas monitoring instrumentation or by colour change in an indicator substance. The quantity of ethanol determined by any method of analysis indicates the vigour of the seed.

Title: Device for presenting polypeptides, able to be used as a chip for miniaturised detection of molecules
Inventor: BOUZIDI AHMED
IPC: G01N33/543
Filed: 2002-05-27
Abstract: The invention concerns a device for presentation of peptides or of proteins, which can be used as a "polypeptide chip" for the miniaturised detection of molecules structurally or functionally complementary to the said polypeptides. This device consists of a flat support onto which the polypeptides are covalently bonded, this bonding between the polypeptides and the support resulting from the formation of a semicarbazone bond. The semicarbazone bond results in particular from the reaction between polypeptides bearing an aldehyde or ketone function and a support functionalised with semicarbazide groups. The invention also concerns the process for preparation of the supports and for attaching polypeptides onto these supports and also the use of the devices thus obtained as polypeptide chips.

Title: A method of diagnosis and treatment and agents useful for same
Inventor: SUM ELEANOR Y M
IPC: G01N33/50
Filed: 2002-09-12
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a method for detecting an aberrant cell, and more particularly an aberrant epithelial cell, in a subject or in a biological sample from said subject and agents useful for same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method of deleting an aberrant mammary epithelial cell. The presence of the aberrant cell or group of aberrant cells provides an indication of a particular disease or condition or a propensity for development of a disease or condition. More particularly, the present invention contemplates a method for detecting a cell associated with breast cancer or having a propensity to develop into a breast cancer in a subject or in a biological sample from said subject by determining the relative increase in the presence of the LM04 protein or a related protein or a relative increase in LM04 activity or a relative increase in the presence of expression products from a gene encoding the LM04 protein or a related protein. The present invention further provides a method for diagnosing the presence of a cancer or cancerous-like growth, in particular breast cancer in a subject or in a biological sample from said subject by screening for up-regulation of LM04 or a related protein in a cell or group of cells or an up-regulation in the presence of expression products of genetic sequences encoding LM04 or a related protein. The present invention provides diagnostic agents useful for detecting LM04 or expression products of genetic material encoding LM04. Such diagnostic agents include immunointeractive molecules, such as antibodies, and genetic probes for detecting expression products of LM04 genes. The present invention further provides genetically modified animals exhibiting altered levels of LM04. Such animals are useful models for screening for anti-cancer agents. The present invention still further relates generally to a method of modulating LM04 related cellular proliferation and to agents useful for same. More particularly, the present invention contemplates a method of modulating breast cell proliferation by modulating LM04 nucleic acid expression and/or LM04 functioning. The method of the present invention is useful, inter alia, in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of conditions characterised by aberrant, unwanted or otherwise inappropriate LM04 regulated cellular proliferation. The present invention is further directed to methods for identifying and/or designing agents capable of modulating LM04 regulated cellular proliferation.
