Patent CA-2370148-C (CA)
Inventor: CIMMINO ALBERTO
IPC: G01B7/00
Filed: 2000-04-27
Granted: 2006-09-12
Abstract: An electronic flexion transducer (10) comprises a helical coil formed from t wo interposed electrical conductors (A) and (B) which are electrically isolated from each other either by an insulated coating on the conductors or by being embedded in a dielectric material (11) having a substantial elasticity. The coil is bonded along one side over its entire length to a flexible non- extensible support surface (13) whereby flexion of the support surface cause s a change in the length of the coil between said one side, which retains its original length, and a side opposite to said one side, which either increase s or decreases in length. This relative change in length between opposite side s causes angular separation between adjacent turns of the coil and since adjacent turns represent respective conductors (A) and (B) there is a change in capacitance between the respective conductors which can be used to provid e an electrical signal to a computer to record and display the change. A puppeteer's glove incorporating a said transducer in each finger is also described.

Granted: 2017-05-16
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a plant breeding and testing method that utilizes a pollen mixture derived from many male parents in conjunction with field trials and molecular pedigree analysis to evaluate breeding values and make progeny selections for the next generation of breeding. More specifically the plant breeding method involves mixing pollen obtained from a breeding group composed of a plurality of parental plant to obtain a pollen polymix.  The polymix is used to pollinate female reproductive structures from parental plants in the breeding group to obtain a plurality of progeny seed lots. Each progeny seed lot has seeds obtained from a different cross between the pollen polymix and a different parental plant. Resultant progeny plants from each seed lot are evaluated using objective criteria to obtain a phenotype score.  The pedigree of a least some of the progeny plants, usually those with a desirable phenotype score, is determined using molecular parental analysis.  Lastly, the pedigree and phenotype score are used to identify elite plants for use in a next generation of plant breeding.

Granted: 2014-05-20
Abstract: The invention relates to the process for the isolation of biologically active granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), which enables the separation of correctly folded biologically active monomeric molecules of G-CSF from the incorrectly folded, biologically inactive monomeric, oligo- or polymeric and also from aggregated molecules of G-CSF by using immobilised metal affinity chromatography. The process of the invention, if desired the whole process, can be advantageously performed under native conditions. The biologically active G-CSF with a purity of greater than 95% is thus obtained. Only two additional chromatographic steps, cationic exchange chromatography and gel filtration, are then preferably applied to remove the traces of impurities. The entire process results in the production of higher yields of G-CSF with a purity of greater than 99%. The described process is particularly suitable for the industrial production of G-CSF.
