Title: Skinfold caliper for body fat measurement
IPC: A61B5/107
Filed: 1992-07-28
Abstract: A skinfold caliper for measuring body fat percentages having two opposing clamping surfaces mounted on rigid arms which are connected at their lower end by a resilient member. The caliper includes a cantilever arm having a substantially circular projection engaging a dimple formed in the caliper when the clamping surfaces exert a predetermined pressure level. This creates an audible and tactile signal to the person performing the measurement indicating that the predetermined pressure level has been reached. A slide on a measuring scale is engaged by one of the arms as the clamping surfaces move toward one another and releases the slide as the clamping surfaces move away from one another. The pointer on the slide will thus stay at the point on the scale where the clamping surfaces gauged the thickness of the subcutaneous layer of fat of the skinfold.

Title: Tissue-specific expression of target genes in plants
Inventor: GOOD ALLEN G
IPC: C12N9/10
Filed: 2001-01-29
Abstract: Methods of producing plants having tissue-specific expression of one or more target genes are taught, as are methods of producing plants having tissue-specific and environmental or developmentally-regulated expression of one or more target genes. A genetic construct is taught which contains a nitrogen assimilation and/or metabolism gene and a promoter for the gene which is inducible under conditions where it would be beneficial to take up, store or use nitrogen. The promoter can be, for example, induced by the presence of nitrate or other form of nitrogen and will be induced by application of a nitrogenous fertilizer. The stress inducible promoter btg-26 is also taught. Promoter btg-26 is isolated from the <i>Brassica</i> turgor gene - 26 and exhibits osmotic-stress induced and tissue-specific expression of an operatively linked gene. The present invention also provides for methods to produce plants with increased biomass and seed yield.

Title: Method for inverting reflection trace data from 3-D and 4-D seismic surveys and identifying subsurface fluid and pathways in and among hydrocarbon reservoirs based on impedance models
Inventor: HE WEI
IPC: G01V1/30
Filed: 1997-04-28
Abstract: A method is disclosed for inverting 3-D seismic reflection data obtained from seismic surveys to derive impedance models for a subsurface region, and for inversion of multiple 3-D seismic surveys (i.e., 4-D seismic surveys) of the same subsurface volume, separated in time to allow for dynamic fluid migration, such that small scale structure and regions of fluid and dynamic fluid flow within the subsurface volume being studied can be identified. The method allows for the mapping and quantification of available hydrocarbons within a reservoir and is thus useful for hydrocarbon prospecting and reservoir management. An iterative seismic inversion scheme constrained by actual well log data which uses a time/depth dependent seismic source function is employed to derive impedance models from 3-D and 4-D seismic datasets. The impedance values can be region grown to better isolate the low impedance hydrocarbon bearing regions. Impedance data derived from multiple 3-D seismic surveys of the same volume can be compared to identify regions of dynamic evolution and bypassed pay. Effective Oil Saturation or net oil thickness can also be derived from the impedance data and used for quantitative assessment of prospective drilling targets and reservoir management.

Abstract: A bioartificial extracellular matrix for use in tissue regeneration or replacement is provided by derivatizing a three-dimensional hydrogel matrix with a cell adhesive extracellular matrix protein or cell adhesive peptide fragment of the protein. Preferably, derivatizing is by covalent immobilization of a cell adhesive peptide fragment having the amino acid sequence, ArgGlyAsp, TyrIleGlySerArg or IleLysValAlaVal. Cartilage or tendon can be regenerated by implanting a matrix containing an adhesive peptide fragment that favors chondrocyte invasion. The matrix can be pre-seeded with cells, and tissue can be reconstituted in vitro and then implanted. A cell-seeded matrix can be encapsulated in a semi-permeable membrane to form a bioartificial organ. An agarose hydrogel matrix having an agarose concentration of 0.5-1.25% (w/v) and an average pore radius between 120 nm and 290 nm is preferred. A nerve guidance channel for use in regenerating severed nerve is prepared containing a tubular semi-permeable membrane having openings adapted to receive ends of a severed nerve, and an inner lumen containing the hydrogel matrix having a bound cell adhesive peptide fragment through which the nerve can regenerate.
