Abstract: This invention brings a new aspect in papermaking by spraying hydrophobic chemical directly onto the paper surface in the dryer section of the paper machine, as a two-step process where high solids starch is sprayed on the paper to seal the sheet's surface and thereafter the hydrophobic chemical is sprayed on the paper surface. This invention is a completely new method of hydrophobic sizing, spraying a small amount of a suitable hydrophobic chemical on the moving web in the dryer section, instead of adding hydrophobic chemical in the wet-end of the paper machine, or mixing it in with starch at a size press. This invention reduces the amount of hydrophobic chemical used compared to any of the other processes, it simplifies wet-end chemistry, and it puts the hydrophobic sizing exactly where it is needed, on the paper's surface, which in many cases will be a single side of the paper.

Abstract: The present invention generates a visual display of metabolomic data compiled by a database and associated processor. More particularly, the present invention provides a database for automatically receiving a three-dimensional spectrometry data set for a group of samples. The present invention also provides a processor device for manipulating the data sets to produce plots that are directly comparable to a plurality of characteristic plots corresponding to a plurality of selected metabolites. Furthermore, the processor device may generate a visual display indicating the presence of the selected metabolites across the group of samples. Thus, the present invention enables a user to analyze a series of complex data sets in a visual display that may indicate the presence of the selected metabolites across the group of samples. Furthermore, the visual display generated by embodiments of the present invention also expedites the subjective analysis of the spectrometry data sets.

Abstract: The present invention provides chemically regulatable DNA sequences capable of regulating transcription of an associated DNA sequence in plants or plant tissues, chimeric constructions containing such sequences, vectors containing such sequences and chimeric constructions, and transgenic plants and plant tissues containing these chimeric constructions. In one aspect, the chemically regulatable DNA sequences of the invention are derived from the 5' region of genes encoding pathogenisis-related (PR) proteins. The present invention also provides anti-pathogenic sequences derived from novel cDNAs coding for PR proteins which can be genetically engineered and transformed into plants to confer enhanced resistance to disease.
