  • Patent number: 9399653
    Abstract: Described herein are the preparation and use of novel bromo-phosphonomethylphenylalanine amino acid derivatives (BrPmp) and BrPmp-containing peptides as specific, irreversible protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors, which are suitable for application in peptide synthesis. These derivatives are particularly advantageous since their synthesis is both easy and scalable, and they are suitable for peptide synthesis. The BrPmp derivatives described herein can be appropriately protected to allow for solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) and incorporation into peptides for preparation of protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors and inhibitor libraries. The peptides and peptide libraries can be used to identify new protein tyrosine phosphatase specific sequences and profile protein tyrosine phosphatase activity in cell lysates, diagnostic samples and biopsy samples.

  • Patent number: 8732052
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method for generating financial reports, includes selecting a first request from a plurality of pending requests. The first request requests a report on information regarding one or more accounts with a financial institution. The first request is separated into a plurality of content requests. The plurality of content requests represent requests for information to be incorporated into the requested report. A plurality of subreports are received in response to each of the plurality of content requests. The requested report is generated in response to the first request by binding each of the plurality of subreports.

  • Publication number: 20070235474
    Abstract: A locking aerosol dispenser with a dome, a top thermoplastic elastomeric button member molded over a dome opening, and a base lock member. The rotatable base lock rotates from locked to unlocked position with respect to the essentially non-rotatable dome. A product channel member in the dome is held by the elastomeric button, and not otherwise attached to the dome. The base lock has an upstanding bridge with unlocking slots within which extend fingers on the product channel member when the dispenser is unlocked and actuated. The base lock is not attached to the aerosol valve mounting cup. The dome is attached to the base lock member and the aerosol valve mounting cup, the dome capturing the base lock member between the dome and aerosol container.

  • Publication number: 20070023457
    Abstract: Aerosol valve trigger actuator with a plastic shroud, a linearly acting trigger member having at least one camming surface, a fluid conduit for connection to a vertical aerosol valve stem and with at least one cam follower, the trigger actuation camming the plastic conduit and valve stem downwardly to dispense product, an elongated bendable plastic spring molded to the shroud, the trigger member having at least one rearward extension extending through at least one opening in the spring. In a first embodiment, the rearward extension is locked by one or more hooks to the free end of the plastic spring on assembly. In a second embodiment, a protrusion on the trigger locks it against removal. The plastic spring biases the trigger member forwardly on trigger release.

  • Publication number: 20060056545
    Abstract: The invention is a signal processing system and method having increased bandwidth. An embodiment of the invention is a method of processing an analog input signal. The analog input signal is split into a first set of signals. The first set of signals are filtered. The first set of signals are digitized to form a second set of signals. The second set of signals are filtered to form a third set of signals. The third set of signals are combined to form a combined signal by adding the signals in the third set signals together to form a digital version of the analog input signal.

  • Patent number: 6880557
    Abstract: A breathing apparatus (10) including a mouthpiece (13) and a carbon dioxide removal area (18) disposed between the mouthpiece and an air reservoir chamber (19). The chamber is preferably filled with a foam material (27) and is further in communication with ambient air (29) to enable mixing with expired air within the chamber (19). The breathing apparatus (10) is useful for simulating the lower partial pressure of oxygen at high altitude, hence it may be used by athletes for simulating “living at altitude”.
