| 20110027567 | Covering a Substrate with a Polymer Film that is Stable in a Liquid Medium - The present invention relates to a process for covering a substrate with a polymner film characterized in that, prior to the deposition of said polymer film, nanoparticules are adsorbed electrostatically onto the surface of said substrate to be covered. | 02-03-2011 |
| 20110023135 | USE OF A NEW GENE CODING FOR A NEW MEMBER OF THE MCM2-8 FAMILY IN PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS - The use of the human or animal MCM9 gene, or parts of the gene, or transcripts thereof, or antisense nucleic acids able to hybridize with part of the gene or transcripts, or silencing RNA derived from parts of the transcripts and able to repress the MCM9 gene, or proteins or peptidic fragments translated from the transcripts, or antibodies directed against the proteins or peptidic fragments, for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of a human or animal pathology linked to a dysfunction of the expression of the MCM9 gene, or of human or animal cancers. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110020661 | FE-SI-LA ALLOY HAVING EXCELLENT MAGNETO-CALORIC PROPERTIES - The invention relates to a Fe—Si—La alloy having the following atomic composition: (La | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110019488 | DOUBLE-GATE FLOATING-BODY MEMORY DEVICE - A memory device is provided comprising a transistor having a floating body positioned between source and drain regions, the floating body being sandwiched between first and second insulated gates each comprising a gate electrode. A control circuit is arranged to program the state of said floating body to have an accumulation or depletion of majority carriers by applying one of first and second voltage levels between the first gate and at least one of the source and drain regions, and to retain the programmed state of said floating body by applying a third voltage level to the second gate. The voltages are switched over a time duration shorter than 100 ns. | 01-27-2011 |
