Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120090608DELIVERY DEVICES - A delivery device for and method of delivering substance, the delivery device comprising: a delivery outlet from which substance is in use delivered; a gas chamber containing a gas and being of reducible volume, wherein a reduction in the volume of the gas chamber to a predeterminable volume acts to pressurize the contained gas to a predeterminable pressure; a seal element disposed between the gas chamber and the delivery outlet; and an opening mechanism configured, on reduction of the volume of the gas chamber to a predeterminable volume, to open the seal element, whereupon a gas flow from the gas chamber acts to deliver substance from the delivery outlet.04-19-2012

20090137472CHIMERIC MHC PROTEIN AND OLIGOMER THEREOF - The invention concerns a oligomeric MHC complex comprising at least two chimeric proteins, said chimeric proteins comprising a first section derived from an MHC peptide chain or a functional part thereof and a second section comprising an oligomerising domain derived from an oligomer-forming coiled-coil protein, wherein formation of the oligomeric MHC complex occurs by oligomerisation at the oligomerising domain of the chimeric proteins, and wherein at least two of the first sections are derived from the same MHC peptide chain. The invention also concerns a chimeric protein comprising a first section derived from an MHC peptide chain or a functional part thereof and a second section comprising an oligomerising domain derived from an oligomer-forming coiled-coil protein. The invention further concerns a method of labeling and/or detecting mammalian T cells according to the specificity of their antigen receptor, by combining an oligomeric MHC complex according to the invention and a suspension or biological sample comprising T cells, and detecting the presence of specific binding of said complex and the T cells. Finally the invention concerns primers consisting of DNA sequences for genetic engineering of the above chimeric protein.05-28-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100066161Trailer Electronic Braking System - A trailer electronic braking system for a road train includes a tractor and a plurality of trailers. The braking system includes a braking ECU on at least one trailer and an ABS system on a further trailer. A communication interface is provided so that the braking ECU on a first trailer and the ABS control unit on a second trailer are able to communicate with one another. In use, the braking ECU on the first trailer receives an input from a respective sensor on the first trailer adapted to detect lateral acceleration anchor wheel speed. In the event that the sensor detects lateral acceleration anchor a wheel speed indicative of a loss of stability, the sensor generates a signal for actuating stability control, which signal is passed via the communication interface to the ABS control unit on the other trailer, so that the other trailer can actuate the brakes on that trailer.03-18-2010
20100070149Trailer Electronic Braking System - A trailer electronic braking system is provided for a road train having a tractor and a plurality of trailers. The braking system includes a braking ECU on each trailer and a communication interface being provided so that the braking ECU on a first trailer and the braking ECU on a second trailer are able to communicate with one another. In use, the respective braking ECU on the first and second trailer receive an input from a respective sensor on the first and second trailer adapted to detect lateral acceleration and/or wheel speed. In the event that one of the sensors detects lateral acceleration and/or a wheel speed indicative of a loss of stability, the sensor generates a signal for actuating stability control, which signal is passed via the communication interface to the braking ECU on the other trailer, so that the other trailer can actuate stability control.03-18-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100177968DETECTION OF ANIMATE OR INANIMATE OBJECTS - Image data representing a captured image of an environment or a portion thereof, and electric-field data representing electric fields present in the environment or a portion thereof are received. The electric-field data and the image data represent information gathered from an overlapping portion of the environment. A candidate object is identified in the overlapping portion and classified as animate or inanimate based at least upon an analysis of the image data and the electric-field data.07-15-2010

20100176288METHOD AND APPARATUS USEFUL FOR IMAGING - The present invention provides a method of generating ions from a sample, the method comprising the steps of (1) designating a plurality of sample target sites, and (2) for each of said plurality of sample target sites, generating ions from a plurality of locations associated with the sample target site, wherein said plurality of locations are selected automatically with reference to the said sample target site. Each of the plurality of sample target sites is associated with a discrete sample region, wherein the sample is part of a MALDI ion source and the plurality of discrete sample regions comprise regions of matrix, suitably formed by chemical inkjet printing. The plurality of locations can be at least 5 and preferably at least 10 locations, each of which can be selected randomly or in accordance with a predetermined pattern. Ions generated from the plurality of locations associated with each of the sample target sites are assigned only a single set of sample position coordinates, which coordinates correspond to those of the sample target site. This averaging technique leads to improved data reliability.07-15-2010
