  • Detection of electromagnetic fields
    Patent number: 7477053
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for detecting or analyzing chemical reactions, such as an enzyme reaction, and other events in which electron translation is accompanied by photon emission utilizing a magnetometer probe to detect a change in electromagnetic field strength as a characterization of the event or of a substance. The event may be of unknown cause and a recorded time course of the change in electromagnetic field strength may be compared with known time course of known events to determine the cause of the unknown cause event. Similarly, a chemical substance may be detected and its identity determined.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 1, 2003
    Date of Patent: January 13, 2009
    Inventors: Carl Pinsky, Frank S. LaBella

    Date of Patent: December 14, 1993
    Assignee: University of Manitoba
    Inventors: Frank S. LaBella, John F. Templeton, Yangzhi Ling
  • Compounds that bind to digitalis receptor
    Patent number: 5144017
    Abstract: Novel steroid compounds which are glycoside derivatives of 14.beta.-hydroxypregnane and 17.alpha.-acetoxy-6.alpha.-methylpregnane are described. The compounds have increased receptor potency when compared to their aglycone and beneficial renal effects.
