Patent CA-2393170-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GUZMAN-CASILLAS ARMANDO
IPC: H02H1/04
Filed: 2000-11-28
Abstract: Les courants secondaires d'un transformateur de courant (CT) pour les enroulements d'un transformateur d'alimentation sont utilisés pour produire un courant différentiel. Une valeur de courant de fonctionnement est obtenue à partir de la valeur de courant différentiel. Une valeur de courant de retenue est obtenue à partir de valeurs de courant d'enroulement traitées. Une deuxième et une quatrième valeurs harmoniques du courant différentiel sont obtenues et additionnées avec une quantité de courant de retenue, laquelle est une résultante du courant de retenue multiplié par un facteur caractéristique angulaire. Si la valeur de courant de fonctionnement est supérieure à l'addition de la quantité de courant de retenue et des deuxième et quatrième valeurs harmoniques, un signal de sortie est produit qui peut être utilisé comme signal de déclenchement à moins qu'il ne soit bloqué par des signaux de blocage choisis générés par une autre partie du système.

Title: Magnetic resonance imaging with resolution and contrast enhancement
Inventor: TOTTERMAN SAARA MARJATTA SOFIA
IPC: G01R33/54
Filed: 2001-04-02
Abstract: In magnetic resonance imaging there is typically a higher resolution within a slice than between slices. Therefore, in the system and method presented two scans, a first scan (202) and a second scan (204) are taken in different, and preferably orthogonal, directions. The two scans are registered (206) by maximizing a correlation between their gradients and then fused (208) to form a high-resolution image. Multiple receiving coils can be used. When the images are multispectral, the number of spectral bands is reduced by transforming the spectral bands in image contrast order and then using the highest contrast spectral bands.

Title: Production of conjugated linoleic and linolenic acids in plants
Inventor: QIU XIAO
IPC: C12N15/53
Filed: 2001-05-09
Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for large-scale production of conjugated fatty acids, especially conjugated linoleic acids in plants. More specifically, the present invention relates to genes identified from Calendula officinalis coding for a conjugase and its related enzyme, a .DELTA.12 desaturase, and utilization of them for large scale production of conjugated linoleic and linolenic acids in plants. The genes encoding a conjugase can introduce two conjugated double bonds at 8 and 10 positions, and a .DELTA.12 desaturase can introduce a double bond at 12 position of acyl chains. The constructs containing these genes can be transferred to plants with different substrate profiles, which allows for the production of conjugated linoleic acids (18:2, .DELTA.8, .DELTA.10) and linolenic acids (18:3, .DELTA.8, .DELTA.10, .DELTA.12) in plant seeds on a commercial scale.
