Publication number: 20240141392Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods for producing oxygenated terpenoids, and preparation of compositions and formulations thereof. Polynucleotides, derivative enzymes, and host cells for use in such methods are also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Ajikumar Parayil Kumaran, Chin Giaw Lim, Liwei Li, Souvik Ghosh, Christopher Pirie, Anthony Qualley, Geoff Marshall-Hill, Martin Preininger

Publication number: 20240132942Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for normalizing polynucleotide concentration. Normalizing may be accomplished using polynucleotide binding proteins (e.g., catalytically inactive CRISPR protein or catalytically inactive Argonaute proteins). The polynucleotide binding proteins may bind to the adapter sequences of a target polynucleotide. Thus, adding the same amount of a polynucleotide binding proteins to different samples and then extracting the polynucleotide protein is shown herein to extract similar amounts of target polynucleotides from the different samples.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 22, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Applicant: Watchmaker Genomics, Inc.Inventors: Martin Ranik, Eric van der Walt, Clara Ross, Craig Marshall, Lindsay Peterkin, Brian Kudlow

Patent number: 11954408Abstract: A method of designing a modified aerofoil shape, the method comprising the steps of: determining a plurality of resonant frequencies of a baseline aerofoil shape; determining that one of the resonant frequencies falls within a predetermined range of frequencies; providing a plurality of aerofoil sections defining the baseline aerofoil shape; and defining a modified aerofoil shape by displacing at least one of the plurality of aerofoil sections relative to its baseline position in the baseline aerofoil shape until one of the plurality of resonant frequencies previously falling within the range of frequencies is shifted outside the range of frequencies.Type: GrantFiled: December 26, 2019Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: ROLLS-ROYCE plcInventors: Martin Rose, Stuart Marshall

Patent number: 11137308Abstract: A pressure sensing package includes a sensor chamber and an annular chamber extending about the sensor chamber. A primary diaphragm divides the sensor chamber into a first part receiving a first pressure and a second part including a differential pressure sensor approximately centered with respect to a sensor axis and a first transmission fluid. The first transmission fluid transmits the first pressure to a first differential pressure sensor face. A secondary diaphragm divides the annular chamber into a first part receiving a second pressure and a second part including a second transmission fluid. The second pressure is transmitted to a second pressure sensor face via the secondary diaphragm and the second transmission fluid. The primary and secondary diaphragms are positioned with respect to one another along the sensor axis direction such that pressures other than the first and second pressures acting on the pressure sensor sum to approximately zero.Type: GrantFiled: January 2, 2019Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: Baker Hughes, a GE Company, LLCInventors: Russell Craddock, Martin Marshall

Patent number: 9588309Abstract: Aligning an optical fiber with an optical device, component or package such as an optical transducer or sensor is disclosed, A housing for an optical device is provided having a tapered surface to receive a correspondingly tapered portion of a ferrule in which a fiber is mounted. The tapered surfaces, which may for example be frusta-conical or conical, enable the optical device and ferrule to be quickly and precisely aligned. An optical device may be provided in a cavity which may be sealed by the mating tapered surfaces. The optical device may also be provided on a mounting bracket with flexible supports connected to the housing to accommodate thermal expansion of the housing and maintain alignment.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2013Date of Patent: March 7, 2017Assignee: General Electric CompnayInventors: Russell Craddock, Roger Jones, Martin Marshall, Muhammed Irshad

Publication number: 20130275179Abstract: In some embodiments, opportunities for a customer of a business to recommend the business may be automatically identified within the customer's social media account. The customer may grant a third-party application access to his social media account, which is then monitored or occasionally scanned for keywords that identify opportunities such as open requests for referrals. The customer may be presented with the requests and allowed to post a referral for the business. When the referral results in a new customer for the business, both the existing customer and the new customer may receive a reward, such a voucher for a gift card.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2013Publication date: October 17, 2013Inventor: Michael Martin Marshall

Patent number: 7308954Abstract: A rotating diverter head for use on a blow out preventer stack of an oil, gas or geothermal well. While providing for sealing and rotation of a drill pipe through the head, the head additional includes a flange on which the head is rotatable. The flange connects the head to the stack whereupon it can be rotated to align a return flow line before being locked in position.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2003Date of Patent: December 18, 2007Assignee: Stacey Oil Services, Ltd.Inventor: Peter Stewart Martin-Marshall

Publication number: 20060037782Abstract: A monitoring system for a rotating diverter head for use in the drilling of oil, gas and geothermal wells. The system includes a pressure sensor which is mounted beside the stripper rubber which contacts the drill pipe. An increase in the pressure monitored provides early warning of degradation or imminent failure of the seal. Apparatus and method are also described for the system with a head having dual stripper rubbers. Additionally a support for locating a housing of the head is provided so that the stripper rubbers can be replaced on-site.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 1, 2005Publication date: February 23, 2006Inventor: Peter Martin-Marshall

Patent number: 5839583Abstract: A package for articles such as zinc air batteries includes a base, a cover hinged to the base, and a flexible sheet material for covering the articles. The base includes pockets for the articles. The flexible sheet material adhesively attached to the articles and base, covers the articles in the pockets. The articles are capable of being stripped from the flexible sheet material.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 1997Date of Patent: November 24, 1998Assignee: Duracell Batteries, Ltd.Inventors: Peter Pope, Michael Pearse, Martin Marshall, Richard Edward Pytches
