Abstract: A sliding window assembly (35) including a window frame and at least two glass panes (38, 39). At least one of the glass panes (38, 39) slides within the frame between an open position and a closed position, wherein one of the edges of each pane overlaps to form overlapping edges (42, 43). First and second rails (44, 45) are connected to the overlapping edges (42, 43) and cooperate to form a seal between them in the closed position. Each rail (44, 45) is formed from a metal component (46) and a plastic component (51) that are formed separate from each other and are assembled in nesting connection. The seal in the overlap between the overlapping edges (42, 43) in the closed position of the panes (38, 39) is formed between the plastic components (51) of the first and second rails (44, 45). The metal components (51) of the first and second rails (44, 45) are spaced from contact with each other and extend to overlie outwardly facing surfaces of the first and second panes (38, 39).

Abstract: The invention relates to methods for manufacturing drug products comprising at least two distinct members of a polyclonal protein, for example a polyclonal antibody, where each distinct member is expressed by a separate population of cells. The methods involve at least an initial step in which the cell populations expressing the distinct members of the polyclonal protein are cultured separately. The individual cell populations, or proteins expressed by the individual cell populations, are combined at a later point of the upstream or downstream processing to result in a single drug product comprising the distinct members of the polyclonal protein.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a recombinant polyclonal protein composition, in particular a recombinant polyclonal antibody composition. The method comprises obtaining a collection of cells transfected with a collection of variant nucleic acid sequences, wherein each cell in the collection is transfected with and capable of expressing one member of the collection, which encodes a distinct member of a polyclonal protein. The cells are cultured under suitable conditions for expression of the polyclonal protein, which is obtained from the cells or culture supernatant. The nucleic acid sequence is introduced into the cells by transfection with a collection of vectors. The present method is suitable for manufacturing recombinant polyclonal antibodies for therapeutic uses.

Abstract: The invention relates to a procedure for linking cognate pairs of VH and VL encoding sequences from a population of avian cells enriched in particular surface antigen markers. The linking procedure involves a multiplex molecular amplification procedure capable of linking nucleotide sequences of interest in connection with the amplification (multiplex PCR). The method is particularly advantageous for the generation of cognate pair libraries as well as combinatorial libraries of antibody variable region encoding sequences from chickens or other birds. The invention also provides methods for generation of chimeric human/avian antibodies and expression libraries generated by such methods.
