in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and J&S

Medical Associates, having a place of

business in Framingham,

Massachusetts. The United States of

America is an assignee to the patent

rights of this invention.

The contemplated co-exclusive

license may be limited to the

development of homogeneous

sequential tests for determination of

lipoprotein subfractions in biological

fluids, with applications to clinical

chemistry analyzers. The license may

not include the use for Patient-Initiated

Diagnostics (PID) in conjunction with

the SerSiteTM remote-site mailable

device or its equivalents, all covered by

claims of US Patent Number 6,036,659.

DATES: Only written comments and/or

applications for a license which are

received by he NIH Office of

Technology Transfer on or before April

27, 2001 will be considered.

ADDRESSES: Requests for a copy of the

patent application, inquiries, comments

and other materials relating to the

contemplated license should be directed

to: Uri Reichman, Ph.D., Technology

Licensing Specialist, Office of

Technology Transfer, National Institutes

of Health, 6011 Executive Boulevard,

Suite 325, Rockville, MD 20852–3804;

Telephone: (301) 496–7056, ext. 240;

Facsimile: (301) 402–0220; E-mail:

reichman@od.nih.gov. A signed

Confidential Disclosure Agreement will

be required to receive copies of the

patent application.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

measurement of the cholesterol content

of the lipoproteins subfraction in blood

has become the gold standard in the

clinical assessment of the risk of

coronary artery disease. Current

commercial tests involve two or three

separate determinations and some of

them are rather cumbersome. The

subject invention provides a new,

homogeneous assay for the sequential

determination of the HDL–C and of total

cholesterol present in blood. The test

can be performed in a single tube and

can readily lend itself to automation.

The method comprises complexing of

the non-HDL–C fraction, performing a

first measurement of the cholesterol

content of the unbound fraction,

disrupting the complex and performing

a second measurement of total

cholesterol. Subtraction of the first

reading from the second provides the

value of the cholesterol in the non-HDL

subfractions. Optionally, a triglyceride

assay can then also be performed on the

sample in the same tube.

The prospective co-exclusive license

will be royalty-bearing and will comply

with the terms and conditions of 35

U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7. The

prospective co-exclusive license may be

granted unless, within 60 days from the

date of this published Notice, NIH

receives written evidence and argument

that establishes that the grant of the

license would not be consistent with the

requirements of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37

CFR 404.7.

Properly filed competing applications

for a license filed in response to this

notice will be treated as objections to

the contemplated license. Comments

and objections submitted in response to

this notice will not be made available

for public inspection, and, to the extent

permitted by law, will not be released

under the Freedom of Information Act,

5 U.S.C. 552.
