Patent CA-2408840-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CARON HUBERTUS NICOLAAS
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2001-05-11
Abstract: L'invention concerne le traitement et le diagnostic de cancers et la mise au point de médicaments anticancéreux. Un catalogue comprenant plus de 350 cibles de la famille d'oncogènes myc, identifiées par le procédé SAGE (Serial Analysis of Gene Expression), est décrit. Cette invention permet d'analyser les cibles aval de myc en tenant compte de l'ensemble du contexte dans lequel les modifications de l'expression génique induites par myc se sont produites. L'invention révèle que ce sont les membres de la famille d'oncogènes myc eux-mêmes qui assurent le recrutement et l'adaptation des mécanismes et des événements physiologiques essentiellement normaux assurant le développement du caractère essentiellement néoplasique d'une cellule cancéreuse qui se traduit par la croissance, l'invasion et l'essaimage (voir. fig. 1). La méthode de traitement anticancéreux décrite consiste par conséquent à moduler un gène aval myc-dépendant capable de déterminer les caractéristiques néoplasiques de ce cancer. L'invention concerne également un procédé consistant à utiliser un ou plusieurs produits géniques des gènes régulés en avals de myc comme indicateurs dans un procédé destiné à identifier des médicaments qui interfèrent avec les effets de myc en aval. La découverte selon laquelle myc stimule le mécanisme de synthèse des protéines cellulaires, décrite dans l'invention, peut être exploitée pour améliorer les processus de production cellulaire dans les systèmes de synthèse de protéines recombinées.

Abstract: On fixe au siège du conducteur un détecteur de bruissement d'air occlus de manière à capter un signal représentatif du mouvement du corps du conducteur et de la durée pendant laquelle le signal n'atteint pas un niveau prédéterminé. Simultanément, on capte un signal produit lorsque le véhicule est en mouvement, puis on compare les deux signaux à l'aide d'un circuit ad hoc. Si les deux signaux sont présents, et uniquement si une tendance spécifique apparaît dans la durée du signal représentatif du mouvement du corps, une alarme se déclenche. C'est donc un moyen économique et facile à monter d'alarme d'endormissement ne fonctionnant que quand le véhicule est en mouvement.

Title: Adaptive frequency touchscreen controller
Inventor: KAMBARA SHIGEKI
IPC: G06F3/041
Filed: 2000-11-21
Abstract: A method and apparatus for adapting an acoustic touchscreen controller to the operating frequency requirements of a specific touchscreen are provided. The adaptive controller can either utilizw look-up tables to achieve the desired output frequency or the it can use a multi-step process in which it first determines the frequency requirements of the touchscreen, and then adjusts the burst frequency characteristics, the receiver circuit center frequency, or both in accordance with the touchscreen requirements. In one embodiment, the adaptive controller compensates for global frequency mismatch errors. In this embodiment a digital multiplier is used to modify the output of a crystal reference oscillator. The reference oscillator output is used to control the frequency of the signal from the receiving transducers and/or to generate the desired frequency of the tone burst sent to the transmitting transducers. In another embodiment that is intended to compensate for both global and local frequency variations, the adaptive controller uses a digital signal processor.  The digital signal processor, based on correction values contained in memory, defines a specific center frequency which preferably varies according to the signal delay, thus taking into account variations caused by localized variations in the acoustic wave reflective array. In yet another embodiment, a non-crystal local oscillator is used to provide the reference signal in the adaptive controller. The use of such an oscillator allows the controller to be miniaturized to a sufficient extend that it can be mounted directly to a touchscreen substrate. A feedback loop is used to compensate for oscillator drift. A discriminator circuit determines the degree of deviation from the desired frequency. The output from the discriminator is used to adjust the frequency of the local oscillator such that it tracks the frequency of the touchscreen.

Abstract: Product gas (Gpro) is separated from material gas (Gmat) by a PSA process utilizing a plurality of adsorption towers (A-C) each loaded with an adsorbent. The separation of the product gas (Gpro) is performed by repeating a cycle comprising an adsorption step, a decompression step, a desorption step, a cleaning step and a pressurization step. In the decompression step, remaining gas (Grem) as cleaning gas is introduced from one adsorption tower (C) to another adsorption tower (B) . The amount of the remaining gas (Grem) introduced is 2 to 7 times the volume of the adsorbent loaded in the adsorption tower (B) as converted into volume at common temperature and under atmospheric pressure. To remove both of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide from the material gas (Gmat) by a single kind of adsorbent, use is made of zeolite having a faujasite structure with a Si/Al ratio lying in a range of 1 to 1.5 and a lithium-exchange ratio of no less than 95%.

Inventor: KEILTY MICHAEL J
IPC: G05D7/06
Filed: 2002-01-30
Abstract: A fluid delivery system (300) comprises a Coriolis mass flowmeter (200), a pump (221), a recirculation valve (222), and/or a back-pressure valve (220).  The fluid delivery system prevents the measurement of a multiphase fluid flow without the need for an air eliminator and strainer. The Coriolis mass flowmeter measures the density value of the fluid product being delivered from a fluid source to a destination. The Coriolis mass flowmeter compares the measured density value to at least one of an upper threshold density value and a lower threshold density value. If the measured density value exceeds the at least one of the upper density value or the lower density value, the flowmeter automatically shuts down the pump and closes the back-pressure valve to stop the delivery of the fluid product from the fluid source to the destination to prevent the measurement of a multiphase fluid flow.
