  • Publication number: 20130030827
    Abstract: A system for managing and exchanging electronic information provides a rules management component for executing conceptual rules, an ontology management component, an information model management component, and a system configuration management component. The ontology management component manages at least one ontology and mappings between members of different ontologies. The ontologies may include a code system and a terminology. The ontology management component may manage a value set that is a subset of the terminology. The information model management component manages one or more information model schemas, each defining an information model and comprising information defining at least one slot within the information model. The system configuration management component manages configuration information on the configuration of each system component.

  • Publication number: 20120229804
    Abstract: Aluminum, boron and silicon were identified as potential leachables from borosilicate glassware and a silica based QMA during handling of aqueous 18F. The addition of only 0.4 ppm aluminum as AlCl3 in the eluent vial resulted in a strong reduction in the labeling yield of a model [18F]fluoride SN2 reaction (from 80 to 40% incorporation). The addition of boron as KBO2 and silicon as NaSiO3 did not result in any significant decrease in labeling yield. Interestingly, there was an interaction effect between AlCl3 and KBO2 in which the negative effect from AlCl3 on labeling yield was counteracted by KBO2. The present invention demonstrates that aluminum and boron from borosilicate glassware have a strong influence on the labeling yield in nucleophilic SN2 reactions with n.c.a [18F]fluoride.

  • Publication number: 20120231014
    Abstract: A method of promoting neural cell regeneration is carried out by contacting a neural cell with a compound that inhibits the binding of a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG) to a cellular (e.g., trans-membrane) PTP? protein. The neural cell is associated with an injury or neurodegenerative condition.

  • Publication number: 20110260908
    Abstract: A method for mitigating against a clutter source or other interferer in a high precision radar is disclosed. The clutter source or interferer may be a wind farm. The method includes positioning a plurality of relatively low resolution radars, such as low cost marine navigation radars, in or about the interferer, and fusing data from them together, to produce object positional data of increased accuracy. One or more of the radars may be adapted to have a radiation beam pattern directed more towards the vertical, and such adapted radars may advantageously be located more centrally within the interfering region. Data from the individual radars may be fused in any suitable manner, and other information, such as ADS-B broadcasts may be included. Data relating to aircraft may be supplied to operators to supplement air traffic control, and air defence radars, and data relating to shipping around sea based wind farms supplied to vessel traffic system radar operators.
