摘要:
A set of compounds that includes an active-agent labeled species and a pretargeting conjugate is disclosed. The active agent-labeled species includes a ligand coupled to an active agent. The pretargeting conjugate includes a protein conjugated to a targeting species having a targeting moiety capable of binding to an in-vivo target or a biomarker produced by or associated with the target. The protein and the ligand are covalently attached. Also disclosed are methods of administering the pretargeting species and the active-agent labeled species to a subject for diagnosing or treating a disease condition, or assessing the effectiveness of a treatment of the disease condition.

A set of compounds that includes an active-agent labeled species and a pretargeting conjugate is disclosed. The active agent-labeled species includes a ligand coupled to an active agent. The pretargeting conjugate includes a protein conjugated to a targeting species having a targeting moiety capable of binding to an in-vivo target or a biomarker produced by or associated with the target. The protein is substantially free of a cofactor. Also disclosed are methods of administering the pretargeting species and the active-agent labeled species to a subject for diagnosing or treating a disease condition, or assessing the effectiveness of a treatment of the disease condition.
摘要:
A set of compounds that includes an active agent-labeled species and a pretargeting conjugate is disclosed. The active agent-labeled species includes a first oligomeric nucleotide or mimic thereof conjugated to a linker having a first moiety coupled with a diagnostic active agent. The pretargeting conjugate includes a second oligomeric nucleotide or mimic thereof conjugated to a targeting species having a targeting moiety capable of binding to a target or a marker produced by or associated with the target. The second oligomeric nucleotide or mimic thereof has a sequence that is at least partially complementary to a sequence of the first oligomeric nucleotide or mimic thereof. Also disclosed are methods of administering the pretargeting conjugate and active agent-labeled species to a subject for diagnosing a disease condition or assessing the effectiveness of a treatment of the disease condition.
摘要:
Pharmaceuticals for enhanced delivery to a disease target comprises a pair of compounds. The first compound comprises a first oligopeptide conjugated to a first moiety for coupling with a diagnostic or therapeutic active agent. The second compound comprises a second oligopeptide conjugated to a targeting species having a targeting moiety capable of binding to a target. The second oligopeptide has a sequence that is complementary to a sequence of the first oligopeptide. The first and second oligopeptides can be complementary PNA sequences. The pharmaceuticals are administered into a subject in methods for diagnosing or treating a disease condition, or assessing the effectiveness of a treatment of the disease condition.
摘要:
There is provided a technique for conjugating one or more complexing agents with a targeting moiety, such as natural amino acids, unnatural amino acids, peptides, peptide nucleic acids, nucleotides, and analogs and derivatives thereof. The one or more complexing agents are conjugated at one or more free amino groups of the targeting moiety while the moiety is attached to a solid substrate.
摘要:
A refrigeration system for cooling air having an evaporator; a compressor; a control for establishing ON periods and OFF periods of the compressor; at least two motor-driven fans positioned to force air over the evaporator; and a control system for the evaporator fans to cause fewer of the fans to run during compressor OFF periods and more of the fans to run during compressor ON periods.
摘要:
A compression type refrigeration system including at least one frosting evaporator positioned to refrigerate air. The evaporator has a liquid refrigerant inlet to which is connected an expansion valve. The evaporator also has a hot gas inlet; a liquid line supplies liquid to the expansion valve; a branch in the liquid line controlled by a solenoid valve connects to the hot gas inlet. The condensing unit, which includes compressor, condenser, receiver and re-evaporator, are valve-controlled so that during refrigeration, discharge gas from the compressor flows through the condenser, receiver, liquid line and expansion valve seriatim, but during defrost, gas from the compressor bypasses the condenser and flows instead from the compressor through the receiver, liquid line and hot gas inlet of the evaporator seriatim.

A computer-implemented system and method for providing information tagging in a networked system is disclosed. The apparatus in an example embodiment includes a tag engine configured to process a database of categorized product listings; to receive a user-provided tag associated with at least one of the product listings; to retain the user-provided tag; and to serve the user-provided tag to a user viewing at least one of the product listings.
摘要:
A suction accumulator for refrigeration systems having a tank with an inlet fitting for conveying it to refrigerant vapor from the evaporator which is mixed with oil and at times with liquid refrigerant. The tank has an outlet fitting for conveying away the refrigerant vapor from which the oil and liquid refrigerant have been separated. An oil return conduit is located underneath the tank. One end of the oil return conduit is connected into the bottom of the tank; the other end to the outlet fitting of the accumulator. Located within this oil return conduit is a thermostatic expansion valve whose bulb is located on the oil return conduit between the tank and the expansion valve. This bulb senses low superheat when liquid refrigerant is in the tank and in the conduit, and causes the expansion valve to close when liquid refrigerant is present, preventing the flow of large amounts of the liquid refrigerant into the outlet conduit. When no liquid refrigerant, but only oil, is present, the bulb senses superheat and causes the expansion valve to open, allowing relatively free flow of the oil from the accumulator tank into the outlet conduit. Another discriminating device is a float whose specific gravity is such that it floats in liquid halocarbon but sinks in oil.
摘要:
In the financial-services industry, there are online centers that help brokers to match sellers and buyers of stock based on indications of interest (IOIs). However, at least some of these centers are not only limited in the types of IOIs that they provide, but also in the ways how they allow IOI senders to control IOI usage. Accordingly, the present inventors devised, among other things, exemplary systems, methods, interfaces, and software that enhance the ability of such online centers, or financial-information systems, to facilitate trades. One exemplary system provides an IOI which is associated with an online negotiation capability. Some embodiments provide mechanisms for users, such as broker-dealers, to define different IOI response privileges for recipients of their IOIs. To reduce the market risks of failed negotiations, some embodiments provide automated features for comparing confidential information from traders and initiating online negotiations for stock transactions contingent on favorable comparisons.
