20030013662, Jan 16, 2003

Filed:

Dec 11, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/735056

Inventors:

Leonard Katz - Wheeling IL, US
Diane Stassi - Highland Park IL, US
Richard Summers - Nashotah WI, US
Xiaoan Ruan - Lake Bluff IL, US
Stephan Kakavas - Buffalo Grove IL, US

International Classification:

A61K031/7048
C07H017/08

US Classification:

514/028000, 536/007400, 536/007100

Abstract:

The invention provides novel erythromycin derivatives in which methyl groups on the macrolactone ring have been substituted with —H, -Et, and/or —OH. The invention also provides reagents such as isolated polynucleotides, vectors comprising the polynucleotides and host cells transformed with the vectors for making the novel compounds. Methods for making the compounds utilizing genetic engineering techniques are also disclosed.

US Patent:

Filed:

Jul 28, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/900981

Inventors:

Richard Summers - Portsmouth NH, US

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705011000, 705001000

Abstract:

A system and method for coordinating product inspection, repair and product maintenance features a proactive, data-driven process where industry-wide maintenance baselines, problems, frequency-of-occurrence data and best-in-class repair processes are identified in a central, secure, structured database environment and thereby where the safety and operational and economic impact of a problem can be evaluated and acted upon. Using industry-wide data provided by users, the present system and method will link repair and inspection finds (non-routines), reason codes and severity data related to potential safety, reliability, cycle time and cost implications with the root cause analysis and certified best inspection/repair/preventative process instructions, materials, tools and/or equipment. This information, combined with a maintenance provider's, manufacturer's and OEM's information, will greatly improve safety, reliability, cycle time and budget performance on repair, maintenance and inspection of equipment utilizing the present system and method.
