20160097777 | IMMUNOLOGICAL METHOD - The present invention relates to an in vitro method for the detection of an anti-drug antibody (ADA) against a therapeutic drug antibody (TDA) in a biological sample. The in vitro method comprises detecting and capturing said ADA using affinity moieties obtained from an intact therapeutic drug antibody, or a Fab fragment thereof, in a certain manner. Avoiding using only intact therapeutic drug antibodies or only Fab fragments thereof as reagents in such a method has been proven as an efficient way of increasing sensitivity, decreasing unspecific binding and the formation of large protein complexes. Such a method has great utility in therapeutic drug development or in the evaluation of a particular treatment of a patient. | 04-07-2016 |

20110286276 | PARTIAL LOCAL SELF BOOSTING FOR NAND - A memory system is programmed with minimal program disturb and reduced junction and channel leakage during self-boosting. Pre-charging bias signals are applied to word lines adjacent to a selected word line before a program signal is applied to the selected word line and a pass signal is applied to the remaining word lines. The pre-charging bias signals apply a pre-charge to the memory cells. The pre-charging bias signals are chosen to improve the isolation of the memory cells on word lines adjacent to the selected word line, improve self boost efficiency and reduce current leakage to prevent or reduce program disturb and/or programming errors especially in the inhibited memory cells on the selected word line. | 11-24-2011 |

20100238731 | PARTIAL LOCAL SELF-BOOSTING OF A MEMORY CELL CHANNEL - A method for partial local self-boosting of a memory cell channel is disclosed. As a part of memory cell channel partial local self-boosting, an isolating memory cell located on a source side of a program inhibited memory cell is turned off and a gating memory cell located on a drain side of the program inhibited memory cell is used to pass a pre-charge voltage to the program inhibited memory cell to provide a pre-charge voltage to a channel of the program inhibited memory cell. Moreover, a pre-charge voltage is passed to a buffering memory cell located on the source side of the program inhibited memory cell to provide a pre-charge voltage to a channel of the buffering memory cell and the gating memory cell that is located on the drain side of the program inhibited memory cell is turned off. During programming, a program voltage is applied to the gate of the program inhibited memory cell where a channel voltage of the program inhibited memory cell is raised above a level raised by the pre-charge voltage. | 09-23-2010 |

20090272020 | Bobbing waterfowl decoy - A floating water tight mechanical waterfowl decoy that produces a bobbing motion at the surface of the water for creating a radiating ripple pattern and a motion which also mimics a courtship behavior, both of which are effective lures for attracting waterfowl to a desired location. The waterfowl decoy includes a buoyant waterproof body to which an electric vertically reciprocating linear motion drivetrain is mounted to the bottom surface in the general head region that drives a disc shaped plunger positioned generally horizontally below the body surface. The waterfowl decoy further includes a waterproof magazine, also mounted to the bottom surface of the body generally in the posterior region behind the drivetrain, for containment of a timing/receiver circuit that controls the drivetrain and is in signal communication with a remote transmitter that functions as an ON/OFF switch. The waterfowl decoy is powered by a rechargeable battery pack also located in the magazine. The bobbing motion is produced by the up and down motion of the plunger in a dense medium such as water causing the motion to be transferred to the body. This motion, in addition to producing a visible wave train also mimics a courtship behavior making the motion and waves a very effective lure to passing waterfowl. | 11-05-2009 |
