Abstract: Various systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for providing access to personalized user environments. A system provided allows a user of a first party (e.g., a bank employee) to toggle between a first party user environment and a second party user environment, the first party user environment being an environment only viewable by a user of the first party and the second party user environment rendered to user of the first party as viewable by a user of a second party (e.g., a client). The first party user environment can also receive data relating to activity of the second party user environment in order to take actions (e.g., provide recommendations) in response to said activity.

Abstract: A solar-powered charger includes a solar panel configured to generate electrical energy at a first voltage level. The charger also includes a converter configured to receive the electrical energy from the solar panel, perform temperature compensation, and output the electrical energy to a load at a second voltage level. The second voltage level could be between 13.2V and 14.4V, inclusive. The converter could be configured to output the electrical energy at the second voltage level with a substantially constant current over temperatures between 0° C. and 100° C., inclusive. The converter could be configured to be coupled to and recharge a lead acid battery, a lithium ion battery, or a nickel metal hydride battery.

Abstract: The present invention provides a chemoenzymatic process for the preparation of (R)-GABOB and (R)-carnitine employing lipase-mediated resolution of 3-hydroxy-4-tosyloxybutanenitrile as the key step. The drawing accompanying this specification represents the preparation of racemic 3-hydroxy-4-tosyloxybutanenitrile, its lipase-mediated kinetic resolution and its successful application in the preparation of (R)-GABOB and (R)-carnitine.

The present invention further provides a process for the preparation of novel bis-pyrrolo[2,1 -c][1,4]benzodiazepine-anthraquinone conjugates of general formula V. wherein n=3, 4, or 5.

Abstract: The present invention particularly relates to a chemoenzymatic process for the stereoselective preparation of both enantiomers of 3-hydroxy-4-trityloxy butanenitrile key intermediates for the preparation of (R)-GABOB by lipase mediated kinetic resolution of its racemates and their effective application in the enantioconvergent synthesis of (R)-GABOB.

Abstract: A chemoenzymatic process for the stereoselective preparation of both the (R) and (S) enantiomers of 3-hydroxy-3-(2-thienyl) propanenitrile has been developed. These optically pure key intermediates were prepared by enzymatic resolution of (±)3-hydroxy-3-(2-thienyl) propanenitrile both by transesterification and by hydrolysis reaction which were then transformed to both enantiomers of duloxetine.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine-napthalimide hybrids linked through piperazine moiety as potential antitumour agents. The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of novel pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine-napthalimide hybrids linked through piperazine moiety useful as potential antitumour agents.

Abstract: Smooth contouring of geophysical data is generated by USGS smooth contouring and plotting system of geophysical data having less artifacts, based on Surfer compatible minimum curvature program. A system and a method are provided, which converts the gridded file generated by USGS package to an ASCII file and the headers of files are removed. Blanks in the gridded USGS files are substituted by value compatible to SURFER software and the headers of SURFER are incorporated. With these changes the contour plots are smooth and can be run from any available personal computer.

Abstract: A peritoneal dialysis catheter comprises a distal tubular section and a proximal tubular section, connected together by a nonintegral tubular connector so that the respective sections are connected together in sealed flow relation. Such a catheter may be surgically implanted in the peritoneal cavity, extending to the chest of the patient with an end thereof protruding from the chest. The respective ends of the catheter section may be connected to each other through the tubular connector as the tubular sections are surgically implanted, and typically after such implantation is substantially complete.

Abstract: A peritoneal catheter comprises a flexible catheter tube carrying porous cuff means to facilitate permanent securance of the catheter to the abdominal wall. The catheter tube defines, in its natural, unstressed condition, a bent segment adjacent the porous cuff means. This permits the catheter to be mounted in a tunnel formed through the abdominal wall in relatively unstressed configuration, with both ends pointing downwardly toward the feet of the patient. In one embodiment, the catheter includes a flange extending circumferentially outwardly of the catheter tube adjacent to the porous cuff means. The flange extends at a nonperpendicular angle relative to the axis of the catheter tube, and the slope of the flange extends transverse the direction of the bent segment. The angled flange, when sutured to the posterior rectus sheath, maintains the catheter tube in the desired tunnel direction within the abdominal wall, with the distal end of the catheter tube pointed properly downwardly toward the pelvic cavity.
