Abstract: Enzymes and recombinant host cells for the biosynthesis of clinically important prenylated polyketides of the cannabinoid family are provided. Using readily available starting materials, heterologous enzymes (e.g., bacterial CoA-transferases and CoA-ligases) are used to direct cannabinoid biosynthesis in host cells such as recombinant yeast cells.

Abstract: A technology is described for automating deployment of a machine learning model. An example method may include receiving, via a graphical user interface, credentials for connecting to a data store containing a plurality of datasets and connecting to the data store using the credentials. A selection of a target metric to predict using the machine learning model can be received, via the graphical user interface, and datasets included in the plurality of datasets that correlate to the target metric can be identified by analyzing the datasets to identify an association between the target metric and data contained within the datasets. The datasets can be input to the machine learning model to train the machine learning model to generate predictions of the target metric, and the machine learning model can be deployed to computing resources in a service provider environment to generate predictions associated with the target metric.

Abstract: The invention is directed to delayed gelation agents comprising a degradable polymeric cage containing therein one or more gelation agents. The cage degrades in situ, e.g, in an oil reservoir, thus releasing the gelation agent(s), which can then crosslink second polymers in situ to form a gel.

Abstract: Bicycle dropouts to secure a rear axle of a bicycle include a dropout with locking channels formed over a portion of its face, and a corresponding locking plate with complementary channels formed over one face. The locking plate surrounds the rear axle and the locking and complementary channels engage to prevent the rear axle from moving in the dropout. When the locking plate is loosened so that the channels can disengage, the rear axle position can be adjusted forward and backward to loosen or tighten the chain.

Abstract: A carriage assembly for a transport system includes a first body and a second body configured to moveably couple to a beam defining a transport path. The carriage assembly also includes a carrier coupled to the first body and the second body. The carrier is configured to support a container such that the carriage assembly transports the container along the transport path. The carriage assembly further includes a drive system coupled to at least one of the first body and the second body. The drive system is configured to move the carriage assembly along the transport path.

Abstract: An electrotherapeutic garment, for example in the form of pants, having at least one electrode portion and an electrically conductive tracer ribbon embedded in the garment for connecting the electrode portion(s) to an electro-stimulation device.

Abstract: A conveyor assembly comprising a main conveyor having a first side frame and a second side frame, with the first and/or second side frames including a side portion and a support surface. One or more input conveyors having a discharge end are joined to the main conveyor with a bottom portion of the discharge end being positioned on the support surface whereby the input conveyors are accurately mounted in close proximity to the main conveyor to promote the conveyance of items from the input conveyors onto the main conveyor.

Abstract: The invention is directed to stable crosslinked water-soluble swellable polymers and methods for making same. More particularly, the invention relates to a composition comprising expandable polymeric particles having anionic sites and labile crosslinkers and stable crosslinkers, said particle mixed with a fluid and a cationic crosslinker that is capable of further crosslinking the particle on degradation of the labile crosslinker and exposure of the anionic sites so as to form a gel. A particularly important use is as an injection fluid in petroleum production, where the expandable polymeric particles are injected into target zone and when the heat and/or suitable pH of the target zone cause degradation of the labile crosslinker and the particle expands, the cationic crosslinker crosslinks the polymer to form a gel, thus diverting water to lower permeability regions and improving oil recovery.

Abstract: The invention is directed to long lasting crosslinked water-soluble swellable polymers, methods for making same, and their uses. More particularly, the invention relates to a composition comprising expandable polymeric particles having cationic sites as well as labile crosslinkers and stable crosslinkers, said particle mixed with a fluid. A particularly important use is as an injection fluid in petroleum production, where the expandable polymeric particles are injected into a target zones in the reservoirs and when the heat and/or a suitable pH in the reservoir cause degradation of the labile crosslinker and when the particle expands, the cationic sites in the polymer adsorb to negative sites of the rock in the formation, thus diverting water to lower permeability regions and improving oil recovery. However, many other uses are possible.

Abstract: A concrete plant comprising an aggregate feed bin adapted to hold and release aggregate materials, a feed conveyor adapted to receive the aggregate materials from the aggregate feed bin, a collecting belt conveyor adapted to receive the aggregate materials from the feed conveyor, a silo assembly adapted to hold and release components of concrete, a screw conveyor adapted to receive the components of concrete from the silo assembly and convey the components of concrete to the collecting belt conveyor, and a mixer adapted to receive the aggregate materials and components of concrete from the collecting belt conveyor and mix the aggregate materials and components of concrete with water. The amount of aggregate materials received by the collecting belt conveyor from the conveyor and the amount of concrete components received by the collecting belt conveyor from the conveyor are precisely and accurately controlled.
