Patent CA-2663364-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MARCH DON DANIEL
IPC: G16B45/00
Filed: 2009-04-20
Abstract: A method, logic and system are provided for generating data representing all possible materials that may be present when monitoring a region or space for a radioisotope of interest. All possible materials with which a radioisotope material may interact are grouped or categorized into one of a plurality of material groups. Each material group is further subdivided into a plurality of subgroups based on atomic number of a material. First data is stored for each of the subgroups of each of the plurality of material groups, where the first data represents an interaction between a representative material for a corresponding subgroup and radiation at a plurality of energy levels. Second data is stored representing spectral characteristics of each radioisotope of interest at the plurality of energy levels. For a radioisotope of interest, a computation is made to produce spectrum data resulting from an interaction between of the radioisotope of interest using the second data with the first data for each of the plurality of subgroups in each material group. The spectrum data is then stored in a library for later use in the field with the output from a detector. Spectrum data is stored for the particular detector to be used in the field, and to this end, such detector-specific spectrum library data may be adjusted to account for a detector's quantum efficiency and resolution characteristics.

Les nombreux signaux de liaison descendante portent tous les mêmes informations  au terminal (240). Le terminal (240) fournit une rétroaction sur les canaux  de liaison descendante. La rétroaction fournit des informations sur les  prises robinet des canaux. La quantité d'informations renvoyées est  limitée. Sur la base de la rétroaction, les paramètres de transmission  des signaux de liaison descendante sont ajustés. Le procédé de  transmission, de fourniture de rétroaction et d'ajustement des paramètres  continue de telle sorte que l'énergie du signal de liaison descendante  est améliorée au niveau de l'emplacement de terminal et supprimée  ailleurs. Une formation de faisceaux peut être utilisée pour supprimer  davantage la signature d'énergie à des emplacements autres  que l'emplacement de terminal.

Abstract: The invention relates to functionalized, telechelic polymers synthesized by enzymatic catalysis and methods, and the functionalization of polymers via Michael addition with a lipase catalyst, and the crosslinking of mono- or difunctional (telechelic) polymers made by enzymatic catalysis, such as by using multifunctional coupling agents and enzyme catalysts. Quantitative transesterification of vinyl methacrylate with poly(ethylene glycol), poly(isobutylene) and poly(dimethylsiloxane) was achieved using Catadida matarctica lipase B. In addition, methacrylate-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether has been successfully coupled to aminoethoxy poly(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether via Michael addition using Candida antarctica lipase B. Amine-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol)s have also been used for the preparation of poly(ethylene glycol)-based dendrimers and gels through Michael addition of the polymer onto triacryloyl hexahydro-triazine using the same enzyme. 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy verified the structure of the functionalized polymers.
