Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100262357ANTI IDLING CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CONTROLLED ENGINE SHUTDOWN - A system is provided for automatically shutting off a running internal combustion engine after a predetermined length of idle time has occurred, for installation into a vehicle having electronic diagnostic and control computers incorporated to the vehicle. A first switching apparatus is provided, having open and closed modes for disabling and enabling the ignition system respectively. A second switching apparatus is provided, having open and closed modes for disabling and enabling the ignition system. A data collection device receives data from the connected vehicle diagnostic port including: battery level, engine RPM, vehicle speed, door ajar status, ambient temperature, handbrake status and brake pedal position. A computer is programmed to determine if the data from the diagnostic port set up the prerequisites to safe shutdown engine running operation, and to signal the first and second switching apparatuses to shut down the vehicle engine.10-14-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120073675STORAGE TANK SYSTEM HAVING EASE OF PLACEMENT AND INTERCONNECTIVITY - A storage tank system stores liquid containing debris. The sidewalls of the tank have a curved lower portion for receiving debris settling out of the liquid and for directing at least some of the debris to a base of the tank. The tank is also provided with a plurality of nozzles spaced longitudinally along the curved lower portion the sidewalls for directing flush liquid downwardly against the curved lower portion for flushing any residual debris remaining thereon towards the bottom of the tank. The tank has a skid equipped with rollers for improved manoeuvrability in a berm environment and manifolds for improved interconnectability with other tanks.03-29-2012
20120076588MODULAR BERM SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ASSEMBLY - A modular berm system and method for installing the berm system about a containment area are provided. The berm system is formed by interconnecting a plurality of panels in an end-to-end arrangement. Corner pieces which enhance the modularity, stability and rigidity of the berm system are also provided. A continuous liquid barrier liner overlies the containment area and the supporting perimeter of panels. The liner blocks any discontinuities between panels. Discontinuities can be overlapped with flaps for protection of the liner.03-29-2012

20080293671Combination of Polychitosamine and Fibrate for the Prevention and Treatment of Hyperlipidemia - The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising a fibrate (e.g. ciprofibrate, gemfibrozil, benzafibrate, and fenofibrate) and a polychitosamine (e.g. chitosan) having molecular weights of less than 650 Kda and degrees of deacetylation of from 70% to 100%. Uses of said compositions for the treatment of hyperlipidemia and associated conditions (e.g. hypercholesterolemia, atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease and cardiovascular disease) or as functional foods are also disclosed.11-27-2008
20090054373CHITIN DERIVATIVES FOR HYPERLIPIDEMIA - The preferred embodiments relate to chitin derivatives for prevention or treatment of hyperlipidemia, such as hypercholesterolemia and the resultant atherosclerosis in a mammal. The preferred embodiments are useful for reducing serum cholesterol, and/or cholesteryl ester, triglycerides, phospholipids and fatty acids in a mammal.02-26-2009
20090149639A Simplified Method To Retrieve Chitosan From Acidic Solutions Thereof - Compositions of salted out chitosan polymer containing mixture of certain salting out salts as well as methods for making and using same are disclosed. Chitosan polymer preparations produced by such methods are substantially free of chitosanase, undesirable salts and excess acid and retain their physiological as well as biological and physico-chemical properties.

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080274050Labelled Adrenomedullin Derivatives and Their Use for Imaging and Therapy - The present invention relates to an adrenomedullin derivative including an adrenomedullin peptide chelated with at least one active agent. Examples of active agents include a paramagnetic element, a radioactive element and a fibrinolytic agent, among others. Paramagnetic agents have a distribution that is relatively easily shown through Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Radioactive agents have applications in imaging and delivery of radiations, depending on the specific element included in the active agent. Delivery of fibrinolytic agents mainly to a specific organ, such us for example to the lungs, allows to substantially improve the specificity and efficacy of thrombolytic therapy by allowing local delivery of the fibrinolytic agent, thereby reducing the risks of major bleeding in the therapy of the organ. If the organ is the lungs, a non-limiting example of pathology treatable with the fibrinolytic is pulmonary embolus.11-06-2008
