Title: A method for the purification of factor xiii by affinity chromatography
Inventor: LOBERMANN HARTMUT
IPC: A61K35/16
Filed: 1989-03-10
Granted: 1992-08-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the purification of the a subunit of factor XIII by affinity chromatography, to a therapeutic composition containing the latter, and to the use of the therapeutic composition. Factor XIII has hitherto been purified either by methods which are technically very elaborate or else by use of toxic affinity chromatography materials. The invention has the aim of providing an improved method for the purification of the a subunit of factor XIII. Factor XIII is obtained according to the invention by a method in which the a subunit of factor XIII is reversibly bound to a matrix suitable for disulfide exchange reactions and is removed from the matrix by reaction with a reducing agent. The method according to the invention makes it possible to provide the biologically active a subunit of factor XIII in high purity.

Title: Exhaust filter backpressure indicator
Inventor: FUCHS ERVIN P
IPC: B01D46/46
Filed: 1993-09-02
Granted: 1996-09-26
Abstract: An exhaust filter backpressure indicator includes a sensor for measuring the backpressure and the exhaust system. The sensor sends a signal which is processed for indicating that an exhaust filter element is filled. The indicator includes a timer so that a signal corresponding to pressure must be maintained for a predetermined period of time before the filled element is indicated.

Title: Metallic strip
Inventor: BOWER TERRY FREDERICK
IPC: B22D11/12
Filed: 1979-10-31
Granted: 1982-12-09
Abstract: Disclosed is apparatus and method for integrated, continuous, high speed manufacture of metallic strip, especially brass, from a melt. The apparatus comprises a chilled casting mold in liquid communication with a melt and means for drawing a rod through the mold in a pattern of forward and reverse strokes. After emergence from the mold, the rod speed is regulated to a substantially constant value before conversion into strip. In this embodiment, the casting mold is stationary; the rod is drawn through the mold by driven rolls programmed to create the desired forward and reverse motion of the rod through the mold. Creating substantially constant speed is accomplished by allowing slack to develop through the lateral deflection of the rod. In another embodiment, the casting mold oscillates as the rod is withdrawn at a substantially constant speed so further rod motion regulation is unnecessary. Conversion of the rod to strip comprises flattening in a hot rolling mill, and quenching. In accordance with known procedures the produced strip can be further reduced in cross section in a cold rolling mill if desired.

Title: Hemostatic plug
Inventor: MAKOWER JOSHUA
IPC: A61B17/03
Filed: 1993-11-17
Granted: 1996-09-19
Abstract: A method of making a hemostatic plug for placement at a site where hemostatic treatment is indicated. The method comprises rolling a sheet of a hemostatic material a plurality of turns onto a generally cylindrical forming tool to thereby produce a rolled hemostatic plug having an opening therethrough along its longitudinal axis. In addition to employing one sheet of hemostatic material having a single density to form a plug, two sheets of hemostatic material having different densities can be rolled in tandem to each other on the forming tool, with one sheet overlapping an exposed wedge portion of the other sheet. The plugs thus formed can be longitudinally compressed if subsequent longitudinal expansion is desired. A typical placement site for which the plug is preferably employed is a puncture wound wherein an entry penetration of an artery and a tissue channel leading thereto are present.

Patent AU-515665-B2 (AU)
Title: Centrifugal casting
Inventor: PIERREL M
IPC: B22D13/10
Filed: 1980-06-23
Granted: 1981-04-16
Abstract: In a centrifugal casting apparatus, the rate of flow of molten iron poured into the mold is controlled by varying the inclination of the feed channel. In particular, at the end of the casting operation, the supply of liquid to the feed channel is cut off and the upstream end of the feed channel is progressively raised. This can be controlled automatically by a cast iron level detector adjacent the pouring spout. In this manner, localized thickness defects in a series of pipes can be corrected. Furthermore, pipes of constant thickness throughout their length can be provided without the need to vary the translational speed of the feed channel or vary the rate of pivoting of the ladle of molten liquid.

Filed: 1986-08-27
Granted: 1989-04-20
Abstract: An optical fiber telecommunication device comprises an interconnecting volume and N stations connected to this volume by pairs of transmit and receive optical fibers. Each station comprises a tunable optical frequency laser coupled to the transmit fiber and a heterodyne receiver system coupled to the receive fiber. It is provided with a tunable frequency laser local oscillator. The volume is disposed in a central office comprising a clock to determine different timing periods assigned to the N stations. The carrier frequency of the laser for each station is initially adjusted to a first frequency reserved for modulating ringing signals in the respective channels. The central office comprises a processor connected to the interconnecting volume to receive the ringing signals and designate a carrier frequency for each call request. This frequency is transmitted through the interconnecting volume to the calling station and the called station on a second reserved frequency. This is in order to adjust the frequency of the laser and the frequency of the local oscillator to the designated frequency. The designated frequencies are different for all calls in progress at the same time.
