Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for the diagnosis of hyperproliferative disease and autoimmune disease. Tumor associated antigens, nucleic acids encoding them and antibodies to the tumor associated antigens are provided for the diagnosis of hyperproliferative disease, such as, for example, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, and other epithelial cancers, and for the diagnosis of autoimmune disease.

Abstract: To help hold a trailer bed of a truck steady at a loading dock as the truck is being loaded or unloaded of its cargo, a yieldable vehicle brace exerts a substantial, but limited, reactive force upward against the trailer's rear impact guard to resist the trailer's downward movement. In some embodiments, the brace holds the trailer bed stationary up to a certain load limit and provides the trailer bed with a controlled or dampened descent when the load exceeds that limit. In some cases, the reactive upward force exerted by the brace increases with the downward velocity of the trailer bed. The reactive force can be created by one or more pressure relief valves, hydraulic fluid passing through a flow restriction, a brake, a spring, or various combinations thereof. Some embodiments of the brace include provisions for accommodating horizontal movement of the rear impact guard.

Abstract: A platform shaker for use in a CO2 rich environment that has a corrosion resistant output shaft and a corrosion resistant, sealed motor casing. An eccentric drive assembly is connected between the output shaft and a platform and has components treated with a corrosion inhibiting coating. A shaker control controls the electric motor has components treated with a conformal coating.

Abstract: An environmental chamber includes an ultrasonic nebulizer assembly for controlling the relative humidity within the chamber. The ultrasonic nebulizer assembly is connected in closed-loop fluid communication with an enclosed chamber of the environmental chamber and includes an ultrasonic nebulizer module to generate water vapor that is introduced into the enclosed chamber. The ultrasonic nebulizer module is constructed to be immersed in water within the ultrasonic nebulizer assembly and is readily replaceable by the user. A nebulizer hour timer is provided to monitor the length of time of the ultrasonic nebulizer is operating to provide a precise indication to the user of how much life is left in the ultrasonic nebulizer before it needs to be replaced.
