  • GENERATION AND REPRODUCTION OF DNA SEQUENCES AND ANALYSIS OF POLYMORPHISMS AND MUTATIONS BY USING ERROR-CORRECTING CODES
    Publication number: 20140039173
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method that uses error-coding codes for validating polymorphisms and mutations/alterations in a DNA sequence which encodes a polypeptide sequence. The present invention also relates to a digital communication system for carrying out the method, employing a model for the biological coding system which resembles the most efficient digital communication. The method and digital communication system may be useful for the predictive analysis of diseases originated by mutations or polymorphisms in genes.
    Type: Application

  • SYSTEM OF GAS AND/OR GAS AND POWDERS INJECTION IN LIQUID METALS THROUGH ROTARY REFRACTORY LANCE
    Publication number: 20070210495
    Abstract: This invention has the function of injecting gas and/or gas and powders into liquid metals using a refractory lance that is endowed with circular movement around its axis, using low values of pressure and sewage, which provides a better distribution and lower consumption of the powders, resulting in lower cost of the handled metal. The system consists of a refractory lance (7), which is endowed with a rotative junction (6), a motor-reducer (5) and a high-pressure hose (8).
