Title: Process for the preparation of intermediates
Inventor: WANG LINHUA
IPC: C07C25/02
Filed: 2006-02-07
Abstract: The present invention provides a process for the production of intermediate compounds of formula (I), wherein the substituents are as defined herein. The process comprises reacting a substituted aniline with aqueous HX, followed by removal of water by azeotropic distillation and diazotization and pyrolysis with an organic nitrite at elevated temperatures in the absence of a copper catalyst. Alternatively, gaseous HX can be used to substitute aqueous HX in the process. Consequently, a step of water removal by azeotropic distillation can be eliminated. The intermediate compounds of formula I are suitable as intermediates in the preparation of herbicidally active 3-hydroxy-4-aryl-5-oxopyrazoline derivatives.

The resulting modified cancer cell particle, or portions of the cancer cell, initiate a positive immunogenic response when administered to an animal or human and help to treat, prevent or delay the onset of cancer. The present invention provides autologous and heterologous vaccine compositions comprising the modified cancer cell with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The present invention provides method of administering these vaccines to treat, prevent or delay the onset of cancer.
Patent CA-2616483-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HOLLIES E DOUGLAS
IPC: B28B21/00
Filed: 2007-12-28
Abstract: The present invention relates to an approach to reducing or eliminating the plugging of slots in a slotted liner while otherwise allowing the liner to function in its normal capacity as a solids exclusion device which permits the reservoir fluids to flow through relatively freely. The approach taught by the present invention involves coating the surface of the slot with a suitable material. The coating at least partially covers the irregularities that are formed on the slot surfaces as a consequence of the slot manufacturing process. The presence of the coating results in a markedly reduced slot plugging problem while still enabling the slot to perform its main function in excluding or inhibiting the inflow of larger particles and allowing the inflow of fluids.

Title: Wireless communication method and apparatus for processing enhanced uplink scheduling grants
Inventor: TERRY STEPHEN E
IPC: H04W72/12
Filed: 2006-08-24
Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing enhanced uplink scheduling grants are disclosed. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) detects an absolute grant (AG) and a relative grant (RG). Once the WTRU detects an AG or a RG, a new serving grant (SG) is generated and a hybrid automatic repeat request process may be activated or deactivated depending on whether the received AG is a primary AG or a secondary AG, whether a scheduling mode is a primary AG mode or a secondary AG mode, whether an AG value is set to "INACTIVE" and whether a transmission time interval is 2ms or 10ms. A Node-B may send a secondary AG to the WTRU before switching from a primary AG mode to a secondary AG mode and may send the secondary AG only if there is no out-of-date secondary AG exists, which may be detected by implementing a time threshold.

Abstract: A portable, handheld micro-chip array reader analyzes luminescence and/or chemical species in the environment. The handheld macro or micro-array chipbased reader device can detect and image small amounts of fluorescence or luminescence emitted from the array chips. The device utilizes night vision technology to effect trace detection of light emanating from array chips. The chips may consist of immobilized capture molecules (oligonucleotides or proteins) which facilitate the binding of a target analyte or individual, spatially separated wells that enable spatially separated amplification or hybridization to occur in any combination of immobilized or aqueous reaction.  The night vision technology is able to detect interaction of the target analyte with the capture molecule via the use of a light emitting (fluorescent or luminescent) label or by photon emitting chemical reaction. Both qualitative and quantitative analyses are within the scope of the invention.
