20110020327Purification of proteins - The present invention relates to a bimodal polymer such as a soluble polymer capable of irreversibly binding to insoluble particulates and a subset of soluble impurities and also capable of reversibly binding to one or more desired biomolecules in an unclarified biological material containing stream and the methods of using such a material to purify one or more desired biomolecules from such a stream without the need for prior clarification. Such a polymer comprises domains of charged pendant groups such as primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary amines, (first mode) and is rendered insoluble and precipitates out of solution simply upon complexing with oppositely charged solid particulates and a fraction of the soluble impurities in an amount sufficient to form an aggregate that can no longer be held in solution. The polymer further comprises other domains of pendant groups that are charged or uncharged, hydrophilic or hydrophobic or have a ligand that is selective for the biomolecule of interest depending on the process conditions such as pH, ionic strength, salts, and the like (second mode). When present in one mode, such as the uncharged form, said pendant groups are capable of binding to one or more desired biomolecules within the stream (protein, polypeptide, etc) in an unclarified cell broth. The precipitate can then be removed from the stream, such as by being filtered out from the remainder of the stream and the desired biomolecule is recovered such as by selective elution.01-27-2011

20080255027Purification of proteins - The present invention relates to a selectively soluble polymer capable of binding to a desired biomolecules in a mixture containing various biological materials and the methods of using such a polymer to purify a biomolecule from such a mixture. The polymer is soluble in the mixture under a certain set of process conditions such as pH or temperature and/or salt concentration and is rendered insoluble and precipitates out of solution upon a change in the process conditions. The polymer is capable of binding to the desired biomolecule (protein, polypeptide, etc) and remains capable of binding to that biomolecule even after the polymer is precipitated out of solution. The precipitate can then be filtered out from the remainder of the stream and the desired biomolecule is recovered such as by elution and further processed.10-16-2008

20120185323In-Store Coupon Delivery System - A system and method for delivering coupons to consumers in a retail shopping environment. The system includes an indicator positioned proximate a retail display of a discounted product. A customer directly interacts with an in-store electronic coupon delivery system. The in-store coupon delivery system assesses the products intended to be purchased and generates an output associated with reducing a purchase price by a total amount of a discount price. The output is communicated to a cashier and, upon confirmation of actual purchase of the intended products, the total purchase price is reduced by the total discount amount. The in-store coupon delivery system provides a merchandise discount system that can be quickly and economically configured to satisfy the requirements of a particular retailer and a system that is less susceptible to nefarious interaction such as redemption of invalid coupons.07-19-2012
