20090222817Navigation in Simulated Workflows - An enabled task accessed by a user within a workflow is identified. The workflow is expressed as a Petri net and includes enabled tasks and non-enabled tasks. A non-enabled task selected by a user is identified, and a suitable state that enables the non-enabled state is determined based on the identified enabled task. A simulated workflow for the selected non-enabled task is generated based on the determined suitable state. The simulated workflow is expressed as a Petri net. The user is enabled to navigate through the simulated workflow.09-03-2009

20090028893Methods for producing fusion polypeptides or enhancing expression of fusion polypeptides - The present invention relates to the cloning and expression of foreign protein or polypeptides in bacteria, such as 01-29-2009
20090042212DETECTION OF PRIMARY INFECTIONS WITH PATHOGENS - The present invention relates to fusion proteins: suitable as test antigens in the detection of infections with pathogens, particularly of primary infections with pathogens. Further, the invention relates to methods for detecting and differentially determining antibodies, particularly IgM antibodies resulting from an infection with a pathogenic organism. Furthermore, test reagents for carrying out these methods are provided.02-12-2009
20090042251CHIMERIC FUSION PROTEIN - The invention discloses the cloning, expression and uses of a chimeric fusion protein with superior chaperone and folding activities compared to the wild type chaperones. This invention relates to a chimeric fusion protein encoded by a recombinant DNA molecule comprising nucleotide sequences coding for a polypeptide binding segment of a non-human chaperone protein and nucleotide sequences coding for an FK506 binding protein (FKBP) or an FK506-binding-protein-like domain (FKBP-like domain). In particular, this invention relates to a chimeric fusion protein encoded by a recombinant DNA molecule comprising nucleotide sequences coding for a polypeptide binding segment of a non-human chaperone protein and nucleotide sequences coding for a human FKBP type peptidyl-prolyl-cis/trans isomerase (PPIase), methods of producing these chimeric fusion proteins and their uses as folding helpers in the production of other proteins and in the process of the production of vaccines or pharmaceuticals, and as folding helpers for performing immunoassays.02-12-2009
20090291892SlpA as a tool for recombinant protein and enzyme technology - Disclosed are a recombinant DNA molecule encoding a fusion protein comprising a SlpA chaperone and a target polypeptide wherein human FK506 binding proteins (FKBPs) are excluded as target polypeptides, a corresponding expression vector encoding said fusion protein as well as host cells transformed with said expression vector. Also disclosed are a method for producing the fusion protein, a recombinantly produced fusion protein comprising a SlpA chaperone and a target polypeptide. A further aspect of the invention is the use of the recombinantly produced fusion protein, and a reagent kit containing a recombinantly produced fusion protein comprising a SlpA chaperone and a target polypeptide.11-26-2009
20110059552RUBELLA E1 ENVELOPE PROTEIN VARIANTS AND THEIR USE IN DETECTION OF ANTI-RUBELLA ANTIBODIES - The invention relates to soluble rubella E1 antigens and variants of these antigens. The antigens contain amino acids 201 to 432 or 169 to 432 and are lacking amino acids 453 to 481 as well as at least the amino acids 143 to 164. They further contain a region spanning two disulfide-bridges. The invention also relates to a recombinant DNA molecule encoding the rubella E1 antigens, the expression of rubella E1 antigens as chaperone fusion proteins and their use in a method of detecting antibodies against rubella in a sample.03-10-2011

20100136519Determination of a specific immunoglobulin using multiple antigens - The invention concerns a process for the immunological determination of a specific antibody in a fluid sample. The process involves incubating the fluid sample in the presence of a solid phase with two antigens directed against the antibody whose presence is to be determined; the first antigen carries at least one marker group, while the second is either (a) bonded to the solid phase or (b) present in a form in which it can bond with the solid phase, and betrays the presence of the antibody being sought by showing the presence of the marker group in the solid phase and/or in the fluid phase. The proposed process is characterised by the fact that at least one of the two antigens has several epitopic regions which react with the antibody to be determined.06-03-2010

20080196915Vehicle control system - A vibration reduction apparatus for use with a hammer tool having a hammer piston is disclosed. The hammer piston is caused to reciprocate in the cylinder by rotation of a gear wheel and crank drive. A cam is mounted around the gear wheel, a counterweight surrounds the piston cylinder, and a cam follower is provided on the counterweight. The cam follower on the counterweight is urged into contact with the cam by a biasing element. The external profile of the cam is such that rotation of the gear wheel causes oscillation of the counterweight in antiphase to motion of the hammer piston to counteract vibrations produced by operation of the hammer action of the tool. A mechanism is provided to deactivate the vibration reduction apparatus when the hammer action of the tool is deactivated.08-21-2008
20090236113POWERED HAMMER WITH A VIBRATION DAMPENING MECHANISM - A powered hammer is described comprising a housing, a tool holder mounted on the housing, a percussion mechanism arranged within the housing which mechanism includes a ram reciprocating in a longitudinal direction and being adapted to apply impacts on a tool bit supported in the tool holder, a dampening mass which is slidably mounted in the longitudinal direction within the housing, wherein the dampening mass is biased towards a neutral position by a biasing element and wherein the dampening mass may be deflected from the neutral position against the biasing force of the biasing element. The dampening mass is formed of a ferromagnetic or paramagnetic material or comprises a permanent magnet and a solenoid is arranged within housing adjacent to the dampening mass such that the solenoid applies a force in the longitudinal direction on the dampening mass when being in the neutral position if a current is flowing through the solenoid.09-24-2009
20110011607MOTOR DRIVEN HAMMER HAVING MEANS FOR CONTROLLING THE POWER OF IMPACT - A motor driven hammer is described comprising a housing (01-20-2011
