Title: Refiner plate fixtures for quick replacement, and methods and assemblies therefor
Inventor: REYNOLDS GEORGE
IPC: D21D1/30
Filed: 2008-11-18
Abstract: The present application discloses and methods and apparatuses to reduce the thickness of a refiner assembly as finally installed while enabling ease of installation. The apparatus and methods provide a refiner plate carrier which is adapted to support the plate segment to facilitate installation but not to support structurally the refiner plate segment during the refining process.

Patent CA-2658357-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LEI YIWU
IPC: H04N1/387
Filed: 2007-07-03
Abstract: Techniques are described for authenticating security documents having security images that incorporate multiple security features. The techniques may produce robust template matching results in situations of lighting unevenness, even with stronger occluding objects. The techniques may be particularly useful in validating a security document having a security image composed of one or more "virtual" retroreflective images formed over a background of a repeating retroreflective image. The virtual retroreflective images within the security image provide strong signals that may dominate analysis and validation of the background retroreflective image, thereby resulting incorrect authentication. The techniques provide a modified normalized cross-correlation analysis that masks out the strong signals contributed by the additional security features, such as the retroreflective virtual images, while still allowing for fast and efficient template matching to be performed with respect to the background image.

Inventor: WANG CHANG YI
IPC: A61P25/28
Filed: 2002-04-02
Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition comprising a peptide immunogen useful for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's Disease. More particularly, the peptide immunogen comprises a main functional/regulatory site, an N-terminal fragment of Amyloid .beta.(A.beta.) peptide linked to a helper T cell epitope (Th) having multiple class II MHX binding motifs. The peptide immunogen elicit a site--directed immune response against the main functional/regulatory site of the A.beta.  peptide and generate antibodies, which are highly cross-reactive to the soluble A.beta.1-42 peptide and the amyloid plaques formed in the brain of Alzheimer's Disease patients. The antibodies elicited being cross reactive to the soluble A.beta.1-42 peptide, promote fibril disaggregation and inhibit fibrillar aggregation leading to immunoneutralization of the "soluble A.beta.-derived toxins"; and being cross--reactive to the amyloid plaques, accelerate the clearance of these, plaques from the brain. Thus, the composition of the invention comprising the peptide immunogen is useful for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's Disease.
