  • Publication number: 20050122291
    Abstract: An optically addressable pixel of an exemplary embodiment includes an emission sensor and a filter disposed to filter emissions directed toward the emission sensor. An emission device is responsive to the emission sensor. A frame is configured to hold the emission sensor, the emission device and the filter, and to pass electric current to the emission device when an outer surface of the frame is brought into contact with a powered conductor.

  • Publication number: 20050094111
    Abstract: A display system includes a single image-projection device, and a reflective surface optically coupled to the image-projection device, wherein the reflective surface is configured to reflect a plurality of images projected by the image-projection device onto a plurality of display surfaces, the projection being along a same path as a collection of the plurality of images.

  • Publication number: 20050064546
    Abstract: The verified cDNA sequences for human, bovine and porcine lactoferrin protein have been used to prepare recombinant lactoferrin for therapeutic and nutritional applications. Regions of the cDNA such as the Fe binding sites can be used to make an hLF polypeptide product The present invention provides novel plasmids, transfected eucaryotic cells and methods of producing these plasmids and transfected eucaryotic cells. The novel plasmid contains the cDNA for lactoferrin protein. Methods for the production of lactoferrin protein in fungi and bacteria are also provided. Thus, the present invention provides an efficient and economical means for the production of recombinant lactoferrin protein and lactoferrin related polypeptides.

  • Publication number: 20050062682
    Abstract: An optically addressable display of a preferred embodiment uses emissions having plural polarizations to define a corresponding number of color channels. A data encoder applies data for each of the color channels to corresponding ones of the plural polarizations. The display also includes plurality of pixels for producing a color display. There is a plurality of receptors including at least one receptor for each pixel. The receptors activate pixels depending upon which, if any, of the plural polarizations is received.

  • Publication number: 20050048509
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods for detecting the presence of invasive pathogenic molds in biological samples that are based on amplification of mold nucleic acids. The methods may further comprise quantitating and real time detection of the invasive mold. The methods of the invention are highly specific and do not co-amplify human or other yeast nucleic acids. The methods of the invention are also extremely sensitive. Thus, methods for diagnosing infections caused by invasive mold are provided. The invention also provides kits for detection of invasive molds.
