Abstract: The present invention provides a process for purifying FV starting from human plasma or a fractionation intermediate thereof, that is simple, scalable to the industrial level and relatively inexpensive compared to the methods described in the literature to date. The invention consists of the use of two anion exchange chromatography steps, the first of which has the purpose of separating the FV from the PTC component factors, while the second has the purpose of isolating the protein of interest from the majority of plasma proteins by means of selective interaction with the weak anion exchange support used. The process developed has also had a viral inactivation step and a viral removal step included, contributing to the safety of the final product obtained, without however significantly altering the process total recovery of FV, and without necessitating the introduction of additional steps for eliminating the inactivating agents used, thanks to the order in which the various steps are conducted. The process described in the present invention also enables an FV concentrate to be obtained that is stable once frozen at -20° C.

Title: Imaging-based guidance system for ophthalmic docking using a location-orientation analysis
Inventor: JUHASZ ADAM
IPC: A61B3/14
Filed: 2012-08-08
Abstract: An imaging-guided docking system can separate the tilt and location of an imaged ophthalmic target and present them in an intuitive manner for an ophthalmic surgeon. The docking system can include an ophthalmic imaging system to image a portion of an eye of a patient, an image processor to determine a location and an orientation of the imaged portion of the eye, and a guidance system, coupled to the ophthalmic imaging system, to guide an ophthalmic docking based on the determined location and orientation. In some implementations, the imaging system images an internal eye-structure to determine its orientation and a video-imaging system video-images a frontal eye-structure to determine a location of the frontal eye-structure. The determined orientation and location can be displayed for the surgeon. The alignment of ophthalmic procedures can also be assisted with this imaging capability, e.g. the placement and centration of IOLs into the lens capsule.
