  • Patent number: 10851260
    Abstract: This invention relates to a hybrid composite polymer matrix, assembled by integrating two polymer networks, as an anti-scratch coating for automobiles. The two types of particulate silane cross-liners are utilized to construct two respective hybrid polymer networks with a unique chain-from-particle structure. At least one hybrid network is a covalently bound network that is interlocked with at least one physically bound hybrid network.

  • Patent number: 9296819
    Abstract: Human prion protein, PrP, selectively presents the epitope MDEYSNQNN (SEQ ID No. 14) when PrP misfolds. The misfolded form of human PrP is associated with various disease states. The present invention provides an antibody useful to detect and treat such diseases, including cancer such as ovarian cancer and lymphomas, and transmissible spongiform encephalopathies such as CJD. Also provided is an immunoconjugate in which the antibody is conjugated with urease as cytotoxin.
