摘要:
A material comprising at least one polymer and at least one sensitizer wherein the sensitizer is localised at a surface of the material wherein the sensitizer is an agent or compound able to provide improved anti-bacterial and/or anti-viral activity following exposure of the sensitizer to a particular wavelength or range of wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation.

A digital mastering system for processing digital image signals originating from scanned motion picture film includes a film scanner for scanning motion picture film and generating a stream of digital image signals corresponding to motion picture images, a color grading channel that pre-visualizes a certain “look” that can be applied to the digital image signals and a digital rendering channel that renders the digital image signals pre-visualized for a certain “look” into a digital master. The “look” includes the appearances produced by either a standard motion picture print film and/or adjustments applied to a standard appearance to obtain a creative effect. The color grading channel includes a parameter generator for storing parameters for a plurality of “looks”, a digital color grading processor for applying one or more selected parameters to impart a pre-visualized “look” to the digital image signals and a display device capable of reproducing the color graded signals. The digital rendering channel includes a digital rendering processor for applying one or more of the parameters selected by the parameter generator to the digital image signals in order to impart the rendered “look” into the digital image signals and a digital mastering device for producing a digital master from the rendered digital image signals.
摘要:
This invention provides conjugates useful for xenotransplantation which comprise a galactose &agr;1,3 galactosyl (&agr;Gal) epitope conjugated to a valency platform molecule, preferably a chemically defined valency platform molecule which allows precise valency. The invention also provides compositions comprising these conjugates, and methods (such as methods for inducing tolerance) using these conjugates and compositions.

Phosphoramidites of the formula ##STR1## where R is a base-labile protecting group, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are individually alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 3 to 8 carbon atoms, or aryl of 6 to 20 carbon atoms or are joined together to form with the nitrogen atom a cyclic structure of 4-7 carbon atoms and 0 to 1 annular chalcogen atoms of atomic number 8 to 16, G is a hydrocarbylene group of 1 to 20 carbon atoms and Z is a hydroxy-protected vicinal diol group bound to G by one of the vicinal diol carbon atoms or a disulfide group and bound to G by one of the sulfur atoms of the disulfide group, with the proviso that G is of at least 4 carbon atoms when Z is said disulfide group are used in conventional automated oligonucleotide synthesis to introduce a functional aldehyde or thiol group on the 5' end of the oligonucleotide to thereby provide a reactive site on the oligonucleotide that may be used to conjugate the oligonucleotide to molecules that contain a free amino group or an electrophilic center reactive with a thiol group.

摘要:
Chelating compounds of specified structure are useful for radiolabeling targeting molecules such as antibodies. Cleavable linkers connect the radionuclide metal chelates to the antibodies. The radiolabeled antibodies have improved biodistribution properties, including reduced localization within the intestines and kidneys.
摘要:
A method for transferring data based on an event function is provided. The method includes receiving an event function from an event initiator. The event function is distributed to one or more destinations associated with event performers. A response message is received as a function of destination and time. It is determined whether the time is less than or equal to a limit time, and it is further determined whether an event parameter is greater than or equal to an event constant if the time is less than or equal to the limit time. Data is transferred from a data origination system accessible by the event initiator to a data destination system accessible by the event performer if the event parameter is greater than or equal to the event constant and if the time is less than or equal to the limit time.
