  • Discharge lamp with vented reflector
    Patent number: 6759794
    Abstract: A high intensity discharge lamp assembly (10) has improved thermal venting. The discharge light source (12) is housed within a reflector body (20). Recesses (40) are circumferentially spaced around an open end (28) of the reflector body. A containment structure (50, 50′, 50″) provides a structure that serves the containment function without interfering with the thermal venting.
    Type: Grant

  • Gibbon ape leukemia virus-based retroviral vectors
    Patent number: 6033905
    Abstract: The present invention provides replication-defective hybrid retroviral vectors comprising GaLV components and methods for preparing and using such vectors. The vectors comprise a envelope component, a core component and a defective genome, at least one of which is derived from GaLV. The vectors can comprise the minimal cis acting sequences from GaLV that allow packaging of the defective genome in a hybrid virion.
