Abstract: Antibodies which bind human CEACAM5 protein, as well as isolated nucleic acids and host cells containing a sequence encoding said antibodies are disclosed. Immunoconjugates containing said antibodies linked to a growth-inhibitory agent, and pharmaceutical compositions containing antibodies or said immunoconjugates are also disclosed. A use of the antibodies, immunoconjugates, and pharmaceutical compositions disclosed herein is provided for the treatment of cancer or for diagnostic purposes.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to the field of cancer therapy using anti-cancer antibodies. The medical use of anti-MUC1 antibodies in combination with inhibitors of the ErbB receptor family is provided which show synergistic anti-cancer efficacy.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and a method for improving the safety profile of the same, comprising linking an antibody molecule to a drug in order to obtain said ADC, wherein said antibody molecule is obtainable from a host cell selected to produce an antibody molecule composition having specific glycosylation

Abstract: A guitar includes a body and a detachable neck configured to be removably secured on the body. The neck has a proximal end that defines a predetermined geometry and the body has a recess that defines a corresponding predetermined geometry configured to receive the proximal end of the neck. A captive bolt assembly includes a fastener disposed within an opening formed through the proximal end of the neck and a nut that is affixed on the fastener such that the fastener rotates freely within the opening but does not translate relative to the neck. An adjustable bridge assembly includes a base disposed within a recess formed in the body and a bridge that is movably disposed on the base. The bridge may be positioned at a plurality of locations on the base to provide a plurality of different chord lengths of the guitar.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring objects, such as vehicle traffic, and controlling a flow of the objects, such as vehicle traffic, through a flow point, such as an intersection having traffic control signals. At least one three-dimensional (3D) vector imaging sensor is operable for detecting an object and capturing node-based object with motion vector data relating to the object. A Sensor Processing Unit (SPU) is associated with the vector imaging sensor(s) and operable for processing the mode-based object with motion vector data, determining a tracked object from a plurality of the objects detected by the vector imaging sensor(s) and extracting the object data of the tracked object to an object database.

Abstract: A novel poultry watering device, and a combined watering and feeding system are disclosed. In a first embodiment, the water device or station includes a support tube, at least one water-holding cup disposed for access by poultry, and water conduit means carried by the support tube and extending from a water line to the water-holding cup. In a second embodiment, the water conduit means is suspended from a pivoting clamp arrangement beneath a feed conveyor. The system includes a plurality of discrete feeder pan units connected to the feed conveyor and disposed to present feed to the poultry. The water line can conveniently be located generally adjacent the feed conveyor. A number of water dispensing stations of the type described are also provided. These water dispensing stations have their support tubes or clamps carried by the feeder conveyor. In this way, the water dispensing stations and feed pan units are all disposed at the same level.
