Patent NZ-503309-A (NZ)
Title: Modulation of drug loading in multivesicular liposomes by varying osmotic pressure
Inventor: YE QIANG
IPC: A61K38/22
Filed: 1998-09-08
Abstract: A method for making liposomes, for example multivesicular liposomes (MVLs), containing one or more biologically active agents, wherein the loading of the active agents into the liposomes is modulated by adjusting the osmolarity of the aqueous component into which the agents are dissolved prior to encapsulation. To increase the loading of the active agent, the osmolarity of the aqueous component is reduced, and to decrease the loading of the active agent, the osmolarity of the aqueous component is increased. In the making of MVLs, the process involves dissolving the active agent and an optional osmotic excipient in a first aqueous component encapsulated within the liposomes. For any given concentration of drug, the osmolarity of the first aqueous component can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the concentration or molecular weight of the osmotic excipients used therein. The rate of release of the active agent into the surrounding environment in which the liposomes are introduced can be simultaneously controlled by incorporating into the lipid component used in the formulation at least one long chain amphipathic lipid. For example, the amphipathic lipid can have from about 13 to about 28 carbons in its carbon chain. Use of the long chain amphipathic lipid in the lipid component is particularly helpful in controlling the release rate and encapsulation efficiency for high drug load formulations.

Patent NZ-547709-A (NZ)
Title: A bar connector assembly
Inventor: UNDERWOOD DANIEL CHARLES
Filed: 2006-06-06
Abstract: A connector assembly for concrete reinforcing bars is disclosed. The connector assembly comprises a seat section (21) and retainer (22) for use with the seat section (21) to connect bars having a semicircle loop at the ends. The seat section (21) is generally U-shaped and the retainer (22) is generally T-shaped. The seat section is symmetrical, the retainer is not, and the bars are of uniform cross-section. A wedging action arises from the asymmetry of the retainer. The seat section has opposed lands in the form of posts (28) and (29) and these posts have channels (30) and (31) which take the bar loop sections. The retainer has a central wedge (37) which is operative to eliminate play between the bars and the parts of the connector to effectively form a rigid unit. This is accomplished by reason of the complex wedge action arising from a first wedge region adjacent the front at (38) on opposite sides of the wedge (37) and a second wedge region (39) which comprises a curved continuation of the wedge region (38) and a third wedge region at (40). Thus the first region tends to spread the bars while the second and third wedge regions tend to lift the bars.
