Publication number: 20240132691Abstract: The present invention provides methods for utilizing blended compositions of acetonitrile and toluene as organic wash solvents in the production of a synthetic oligonucleotide, the blended compositions producing higher synthetic oligonucleotide yields than a pure acetonitrile wash solvent. The method also provides a process for removing one or more impurities from the acetonitrile and toluene containing wash solvent received as a waste stream from the oligonucleotide synthesis process. The process includes adding at least one of an iodine reactive compound, a sulfur reactive compound and/or an acidic reactive compound to the waste stream, and fractionating the waste stream. The fractionation produces an overhead fraction and a bottom fraction where the overhead fraction includes the acetonitrile and the toluene, and the bottom fraction includes the one or more impurities.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 20, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Jüergen Rudolph, James Guiheen, Sandra Lorenz, Stefan Seekamp, Christian Werner, Jared OConnell

Patent number: 10199024Abstract: Methods and apparatuses according the present embodiments derive the sound of a Hammond tonewheel organ from the equal-tempered tuning of its tonewheels and drawbar registration design, as well as its vibrato/chorus processing and pickup distortion. In embodiments, as a reverberation effect, the modal processor simulates a room response as the sum of resonant filter responses, providing precise, independent and interactive control over the frequency, damping, and complex amplitude of each mode. As an effects processor, the modal processor provides pitch shifting and distortion by simple manipulations of the mode output sinusoids.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2017Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Inventors: Jonathan S. Abel, Kurt James Werner
