摘要:
The present invention relates to enzymes and processes. In particular, there is described an isolated polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence corresponding to Citrobacter freundii phytase or a homologue, a modified form, a functional equivalent or an effective fragment thereof. There is also described a host cell transformed or transfected with a nucleic acid encoding a bacterial phytase enzyme or a modified form as well as the use of such a phytase or modified form in food or animal feed.

A flexible diagnostic workstation comprises is equipped to read label information on well strips of loaded well plates and on loaded reagent kit holders, automatically perform the pre-analytical steps of an immuno-assay which consists of a sequence of operations in accordance with scheduled test requirements for each microwell, read the results according to either a standard singleplex ELISA or multiplex test format as indicated by the well strip label, and report the results.
摘要:
A process for damaging and maintaining damage to the nucleic acids of pathogens such as white blood cells, bacteria and viruses which may be contained in blood or blood components. This process comprises adding to the blood or blood component containing pathogens an effective amount of riboflavin, and exposing the fluid to light of an appropriate wavelength to damage the nucleic acid of the pathogen and to substantially maintain the damage to the pathogenic nucleic acids to allow for subsequent transfusion into a recipient.

A system and a method for communicating video data associated with content across a network are disclosed. A server partitions the content into a plurality of tiles where each tile includes a subset of the content and index data describing a relationship between a tile and one or more adjacent tiles. Each tile is then encoded as a video frame, for example each tile is encoded according to the H.264 standard. The plurality of tiles are then transmitted to a client which combines the plurality of tiles using the index data to locally recreate the content. The client associates a predetermined viewport tile with a client viewport representing the area of the content that is visible in a client display device to allow viewing of the content while tiles not associated with the client viewport are cached to expedite subsequent retrieval.

The present invention relates to an adjustable tripod mechanism to support devices/transducers for scientific measurements such as weather station, radio transceiver, acoustic modem, and the like. More particularly, this invention relates to a novel, fully mechanical, and hand-operated tripod stand that incorporates (1) capability for rigidly mounting devices such as instruments, transducers, and so forth on a desired plane at a desired height for measurement of a multiplicity of parameters (e.g., meteorological parameters such as wind speed and direction, solar radiation, air temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, and the like); (2) rotation of any attached/mounted-device/transducer in the azimuthal direction at any angular intervals to facilitate orienting a mounted device in a given direction without the need for rotation of the legs of the tripod; (3) capability for partitioning of the tripod into a multiplicity of desirable smaller segments, thereby enabling its trouble-free transportation to remote areas; (4) trouble-free coupling of a plurality of separate members to achieve the desired height for the tripod stand to suit a given installation environment; (5) improvement in the efficiency of assembly, de-assembly, and packing of the tripod system by rendering its members compact and dismountable; (6) achieving elegance in appearance and ease in mounting; (7) improvement in mechanical stability as a result of an adjustably wider base area; and (8) facility for locking the tripod mechanism to the floor to prevent its translational/angular movement under drag force induced by the prevailing wind.
摘要:
A new cellulose excipient, OCCAE, suitable for use as a binder, filler, and/or disintegrant in the development of solid dosage forms and as a bodying agent or a drug carrier in the preparation of topical formulations is described. The cellulose excipient is formed by reacting an oxidized cellulose ester with an alcohol in the presence of a catalyst. The invention also describes the formation of controlled release microspheres using OCCAE and/or oxidized cellulose esters that may be used to control the release of drug in a patient over a time period of several hours to several days.

The invention provides exemplary aerosolization apparatus and methods for aerosolizing a substance. According to one exemplary method, a liquid is transferred from a first chamber into a second chamber having a substance that is in a dry state to form a solution. The solution is then transferred from the second chamber and onto an atomization member. The atomization member is operated to aerosolize the solution.
