Abstract: A storage and drinking container for pressurised beverages comprises a drinking vessel (1) having a lip (3) and a lid formed from a cap (5) and retaining ring (12). The cap (5) seals with a sealing surface (4) on the inside of the neck of the drinking vessel and is retained in place by fingers (8) engaging under a lip (3). The fingers 8 are retained in position by a retaining ring (12). Cooperating sets of cammed surfaces (10) and (13) on the cap (5) and retaining ring (12) act on rotation of the retaining ring to axially separate the retaining ring (12) from the cap (5), releasing the fingers 8 from under the lip (3) and permitting the lid to be removed. The invention provides a drinking vessel with a wide neck which can be reliably sealed without the necessity to provide screw threads on the outer surface of the drinking vessel (1).

Patent CA-2658595-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ENENKEL BARBARA
IPC: C12N15/67
Filed: 2007-06-15
Abstract: The invention relates to DNS-sequences, particularly transcription- or ex pression increasing elements (TE-elements) and the use thereof on an express ion vector in connection with an enhancer, a promoter, a product gene and a selection marker. The invention describes the sequence No. 1 and the TE-elem ents TE-01, -02, -03, -04, - 06, -07, -08, -10, -11 or -12. Due to their sma ll size TE-06, TE-07 or TE-08 are particularly preferred. The sequence No. 1 is from a sequence region being upstream of the code region of the Ub/S27a- genes of CHO-cells. TE-elements cause an expression increase of the product gene with stable integration into the eukaryotic genome, preferably the CHO- DG44-genome. Chromosomal position effects are thus overcome, shielded or eli minated. Thus, the content of high producers of a transfection deposit and a lso the absolute expression level is increased up to fifteen fold.

Title: Exhaust gas recovery system
Inventor: HEISLER WARREN N
IPC: F01N3/00
Filed: 2009-03-03
Abstract: The EGRS recovers exhaust gas from gas operated diaphram pumps, and recycles the wasted exhaust gas into a useable gas to operate natural gas heaters.  By reusing the waste gas in this manner, we keep the environment cleaner and also increase profits for the oil and gas companies. At present the exhaust gas is discharged from the diaphram pump into the atmosphere, thus causing poor air quality throughout Canada and the world. This system recovers 100 % of the exhaust gas associated with operating the diaphram pump.

Title: Phospholipid compositions for contact lens care and preservation of pharmaceutical compositions
Inventor: GHOSH MALAY
IPC: A01P1/00
Filed: 2008-05-16
Abstract: The use of certain synthetic phospholipids to preserve pharmaceutical compositions from microbial contamination is described. The synthetic phospholipids have unique molecular arrangements wherein a phosphate group is linked to a quaternary ammonium functionality via a substituted-propenyl group, and the quaternary ammonium functionality is further linked to at least one long hydrocarbon chain. Such molecular arrangements are what make the phospholipids of formula (1) highly water soluble, e.g., the length of the hydrocarbon chain assists to maintain solubility and efficacy of the molecules for the uses described herein.  The synthetic phospholipids described herein have been found to be particularly useful as antimicrobial preservatives for ophthalmic, otic and nasal pharmaceutical compositions, especially ophthalmic compositions. These compounds may also be utilized to disinfect contact lenses. The invention is based in-part upon a finding that the antimicrobial activity of the synthetic phospholipids is affected by the ionic strength of the compositions in which the compounds are contained. The provision of compounds having limited ionic strengths is therefore preferred.

Abstract: The present invention encompasses a model-based method for determining insulin sensitivity and glucose absorption from oral glucose tolerance tests or mixed meals. The present invention has several advantages over current methods. The technique requires about four to six blood samples taken over about two to three hours following glucose ingestion and is therefore applicable to large-scale clinical trials. The analysis involves a reduced version of the classical minimal model, a method for describing glucose absorption using only two parameters, and an integral approach enabling the parameters to be obtained using simple algebra. The present method robustly identifies differences in insulin sensitivity in different patient types as well as improvements in insulin sensitivity arising from pharmaceutic therapy. In addition, insulin sensitivity measurements obtained with the present method are highly correlated with results from hyperinsulinemic clamps (r2> 0.8). This method is therefore a practical and robust method for determining insulin sensitivity under physiologic conditions.
