Patent number: 8076297Abstract: The present invention is related to a composition capable of inhibiting the growth of tumoral cells of different histological origins and of activated endothelial cells. The components of said compositions are polypeptide fragments of the serralisins, corresponding to the C-terminal fragment, from the internal metionine trough the end of the molecule, which could be combined among them and optionally with the prodigiosins that potentiate the antitumoral effect of the composition. The prodigiosins in the composition could be at a concentration of 0.1-100 nM. The anti-proliferative action of this composition is mediated by apoptotic mechanism. It's “in vivo” administration has antitumoral, antiangiogenic and protective effect against malignant tumors.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 2005Date of Patent: December 13, 2011Assignee: Centro De Ingenieria Genetica Y BiotecnologiaInventors: Maria del Carmen Abrahantes Pérez, Jesús Reyes González, Gloria Véliz Rios, Eduardo Martinez Diaz, Caridad Anais Gasmuri González, José Garcia Suárez, Mónica Bequet Romero, Luis Javier González López, Lila Rosa Castellanos Serra, Manuel Selman-Housein Sosa, Raúl Gómez Riera, Jorge Victor Gavilondo Cowley

Publication number: 20110154659Abstract: Apparatuses and methods that provide for enhanced connections between PTHs of multi-layer PCBs and electronic component leads, pins or the like. The apparatuses and methods improve the likelihood that the PTHs are completely filled with solder thereby advantageously allowing the PCBs to exhibit high mechanical and electrical reliability. Complete filling of PTHs is achieved by configuring the electrically conductive layers within the multi-layer PCB stack in a manner that reduces the heat sinking effects of the layers during the soldering process. In this regard, the PTHs may not directly contact all of the internal ground or power planes, so the heat sinking or heat transfer effects are reduced. This feature enables molten solder to substantially or completely fill an entire PTH before freezing.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2011Publication date: June 30, 2011Applicant: ORACLE AMERICA, INC.Inventors: James David Britton, Jorge Eduardo Martinez-Vargas, JR.

Publication number: 20110088303Abstract: A frame block for use in displaying typically flat planar rectangular objects such as photographs comprises two parallel planar areas, at least one such area having a plurality of grooves and associated ridges. The grooves and ridges each have a predetermined width and an associated length. The grooves are cut into a surface of the frame block and have a predetermined depth for receiving a clear plastic protector frame for an object to be displayed. The grooves and ridges form an area for display in which a two- or three-sided clear plastic protector frame may be mounted, each of which protects the object to the displayed. When standing on a side with the grooves horizontally aligned to said side, the frame block area is adapted to receive a three-sided protector and associated object at a location within the area selected by a user, two opposite sides of the three-sided protector being received into two horizontally aligned grooves.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2009Publication date: April 21, 2011Inventor: Sergio Eduardo Martinez, JR.

Publication number: 20110061233Abstract: Systems and methods for providing mechanically reinforced plated through-holes (PTH) in PCBs, which advantageously allow improved soldering capabilities and reliability, are described herein. Such systems and methods are achieved by reducing the heat sinking effects of PTHs by providing one or more vias surrounding the PTHs to provide an electrical connection between the PTH and the internal and bottom conductive layers of a PCB. In this regard, the PTHs are spaced apart from at least one of the internal conductive layers (e.g., ground or power layers), so the heat sinking effects are reduced. This feature enables molten solder to substantially fill the entire PTH before freezing, thereby improving the mechanical and electrical connection between an electrical component and the PCB. One or more electrically-nonfunctional lands (or “rib reinforcements”) are provided in internal conductive layers to mechanically support the walls of the PCB.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 11, 2009Publication date: March 17, 2011Applicant: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Jorge Eduardo Martinez-Vargas, Lien-Fen(Livia) Hu, Samuel Ming Sien Lee, James David Britton, Martin John Henson

Publication number: 20110050252Abstract: An apparatus and method for determining characterizing attributes of an actuator is provided. An actuator may be moved to a maximum capacitance position. At the maximum capacitance position, an initial measurement of the actuator capacitance is made. The actuator is moved a predetermined increment toward a first extreme position, and the actuator capacitance is again measured. If the capacitance changed by a threshold amount, the signal preceding the signal that caused the actuator to move is recorded as an approximate response curve end point, or the first extreme position. The actuator is again moved a predetermined increment toward a second extreme position. After each move, the capacitance is measured. If it is determined the capacitance did change by a threshold amount from the previously measured capacitance, the signal related to the previously measured capacitance is recorded as an approximate response curve end point, or the second extreme position.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 20, 2010Publication date: March 3, 2011Applicant: ANALOG DEVICES, INC.Inventors: Eduardo Martinez, Christian Jimenez, Jose Ibanez-Climent, Colm Donovan

Publication number: 20100308902Abstract: A reference voltage generator circuit may include at least one MOS transistor and at least one bipolar transistor coupled together to provide an electrical path from an input reference potential to an output of the generator circuit. The electrical path may extend through a gate-to-source path of the MOS transistor and further through a base-to-emitter path of the bipolar transistor. The MOS transistor may be biased by a bias current that is proportional to T2·?(T), where T represents absolute temperature and ?(T) represents mobility of a MOS transistor in the bias current generator. Optionally, the reference voltage generator may include N MOS and M multiple bipolar transistors (N?1, M?1), and the output reference voltage may be N*VGS+M*VBE as compared to the input reference potential.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 19, 2010Publication date: December 9, 2010Applicant: ANALOG DEVICES, INC.Inventors: Santiago IRIARTE, Alberto MARINAS, Colm DONOVAN, Eduardo MARTINEZ

Publication number: 20100208242Abstract: A focus error signal resulting from the photothermically-induced expansion is measured in a sample of material under analysis. A laser is disposed as a periodically modulated heating source which is directed to the sample and a device for focus error measuring which is directed to de surface being heated. A device measuring focus error generates a signal representative of the displacement of the surface of material in perpendicular direction due to the expansion produced by the periodic heating, which is filtered, either analogically or digitally, to discriminate the displacement component at the frequency in which it was modulated or at any other related frequency, such any harmonic or a sum with any other modulation. The focus error signal, appropriately calibrated, gives a precise and sensitive measure of the magnitude the expansion.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 12, 2010Publication date: August 19, 2010Applicant: CONSEJO NACIONAL DE INVESTIGACIONES CIENTIFICAS Y TECNICAS (CONICET)Inventors: Oscar Eduardo MARTÍNEZ, Esteban Alejo DOMENE, Nélida MINGOLO, Francisco BALZAROTTI, Andrea Veronica BRAGAS

Publication number: 20100155106Abstract: Implementations of the present invention may involve methods for providing an optical differentiation on a printed circuit board to assist in identifying a missing or improperly mounted component. The optical differentiation may be such that, when a component of the board is missing or improperly attached to the board, a distinct optical difference is created on the board in the visible or non-visible spectrum. Several implementations may create a visible color difference, a non-visible mark, a recognizable shape, texture change, cross hatching or other form of physical modification beneath the component or on the printed circuit board. Other implementations may include the optical differentiation within a silk-screen of the board or on an internal layer of the board.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2008Publication date: June 24, 2010Applicant: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: James David Britton, Thomas J.
