Title: An animal feed additive based on fermentation broth a process for its production and its use
Inventor: BINDER WOLFRAM
IPC: A23K1/20
Filed: 1994-03-16
Abstract: 2. Animal feed additives based on fermentation broth further contain, in addition to the additive, other fermentation broth constituents. Such products, after spray-drying, generally have an excessively low bulk density and/or are sticky. To granulate these products, processing aids have therefore been added, e.g. perlite or sawdust. Alternatively, such products have been dewatered by azeotropic distillation with paraffin oil to give granules. The object of the invention is a highly concentrated animal feed additive which, in particular, is to have a bulk density of at least 550 kg/m<3> and a standardisable active compound content. 2.2. By pelletising, stable granules can be produced from an animal feed additive-containing fermentation broth if the fermentation product is contained at at least 33% by weight. Granules can particularly readily be produced by pelletising if the pellets are built up of at least 30% by weight fine grain with at least 70% by weight having a particle size < 100  mu m. The biomass can be contained completely, in part or not at all in the granules. 2.3. Animal feed additives such as lysine, threonine or tryptophan, or containing fermentation broth products.

Title: Transdermal drug delivery device
Inventor: CHOWDHURY DEWAN FAZLUL HOQUE
IPC: A61K9/70
Filed: 2004-06-05
Granted: 2006-09-06
Abstract: A transdermal drug delivery device comprises a reservoir layer, which consists of one or more chambers for containing a drug. A lower surface of the reservoir layer is bounded by a resilient membrane, which is perforated by pores through which the drug may be delivered from the chambers. Connected to the reservoir layer is an extensor means, which can be actuated by control means to deform the reservoir layer such that the chambers are compressed and the pores are enlarged, thereby forcing the drug from the chambers through the pores and into contact with the patient's skin. When the resilient membrane is adhered to the skin, the extension and relaxation of the device causes simultaneous stretching and relaxation of the skin, disrupting the barrier presented by the skin's surface and enhancing delivery of the drug.

Title: Debossing and perforating a polymeric web
Inventor: CURRO JOHN JOSEPH
IPC: A61F13/15
Filed: 1986-05-30
Granted: 1989-07-19
Abstract: @ A continuous, multi-phase process for debossing and perforating a substantially continuous web of substantially planar polymeric film to coincide with the image of one or more forming structures, each having a patterned forming surface with a multiplicity of holes and an opposed surface. Each forming structure is open from the holes in the forming surface to its opposed surface. The web of film has an indefinite length, a first surface, a second surface and a thickness. The thickness comprises the distance between the first surface and the second surface. The process comprises at least two sequential.forming phases, one of which involves three-dimensional conformance of the web to the macroscopic profile of the forming structure and another of which involves aperturing of the web to coincide with fine-scale apertures in either the same or a separate forming structure. The order in which the phases are carried out will depend upon the properties desired in the resultant macroscopically expanded, three-dimensional, apertured polymeric web. Because the process is carried out in sequential phases, previously incompatible characteristics which could not be provided by prior art single-phase forming processes can now be achieved.

Abstract: Apparatus for producing a light mask 34 for balancing light across a display area 14 of a vehicle instrument cluster 10 comprises a camera 52, a digitiser 54 and a computer 56. An image of the display area 14 is obtained and digitised to produce data relating to the illumination levels of the image at a plurality of pixels. The illumination levels are used to calculate an appropriate light mask for the display area 14 on the basis of the transmissive density of the masking ink used and of a reference illumination value relating to the least lit part of the display area which it is desired to illuminate. The light mask 34 comprises an array of dots having a diameter related to the amount of attenuation required in the area in which the dot is located. Up to three masking layers 34 may be provided if a single layer is insufficient to produce the required attenuation with the chosen masking ink. Balanced coverlays can readily be produced, and the number of masking layers required can also be reduced. <IMAGE>

Date Jul. 20, 1995An aerodynamic low drag structure (12) has a skin (18, 19, 20) which in movement of the structure (12) relative to a surrounding gaseous fluid medium produces at a flow control region of the skin (18) laminar flow in a boundary layer adjacent the skin. To improve boundary layer control, gaseous fluid is withdrawn from the boundary layer at the flow control region into a first inlet opening (21, 22, 23) in the skin (18) and is conveyed along a first fluid flow path (241, 242) within the structure (12) for discharge at a discharge opening (28) downstream of the first inlet opening (21, 22, 23). Gaseous fluid is withdrawn at a second inlet opening (26) in the skin (20) at a region of the skin subjected to gaseous fluid at ramming pressure and conveyed along a second fluid flow path (27, 242) within the structure to the discharge opening (28) or a further discharge opening. Fluid under ramming pressure in the second fluid flow path (27, 242) causes the fluid in the first fluid flow path (241, 242) to be impelled along the first fluid flow path thereby causing fluid to be withdrawn from the boundary layer and to be discharged from the discharge opening (28).
