Abstract: A finely-divided cerium oxide-metal/metalloid oxide mixture containing pyrogenically-produced metal/metalloid oxide and 0.001 to 95 wt.% cerium oxide.  The resulting mixture, having a specific surface area between 10 and 400 m2/g, is produced by mixing the pyrogenically-produced metal/metalloid oxide (having a specific surface area between 30 and 400 m2/g) with a cerium compound which is decomposable to the oxide at elevated temperature, and the cerium compound then is thermally decomposed to the oxide.          The cerium oxide-metal/metalloid oxide mixture can be used as a polishing agent or as a polymer filler material.

Abstract: A downhole fluid separation system is used with submergible pumping systems to separate downhole fluids into different density fluids, recover the lighter fluids to the earth's surface, and dispose the heavier fluids downhole. The fluid separation system includes a plurality of housings connectable one to another, each housing having one or more fluid separators, such as hydrocyclones, therein with an inlet of each fluid separator in communication with an inlet conduit, an overflow of each fluid separator in communication with an overflow conduit, and an underflow of each fluid separator in communication with an underflow conduit. The fluid separation system can be configured for parallel flow where the conduits conveying fluids downstream of a first housing have a greater cross-sectional flow area than corresponding conduits in an adjacent second housing. Also, the fluid separation system can be configured for series flow, for either the separated lighter or the separated heavier fluids. The use of differing sized conduits in the housings as required for the actual flow rates in each housing enable higher flow capacity fluid separators to be used than previously possible for greater fluid handling efficiency.

Abstract: A blood-collection needle disposal apparatus is disclosed for a needle having a sharp front end and a sharp rear end, and a mounting collar on the needle between its ends. The disposal system includes a holder tube extending along an axis and having front and rear ends and a piston axially slidable in the holder tube which piston is provided with a mount adapted to fit complementarily with the mounting collar when the needle rear end is directed axially backward into the tube. The piston normally is at the tube front end with its mount projecting axially forward from the tube. A flexible strand has a front end attached to the piston and a rear end projecting from the tube rear end. This mount is fitted into the needle's collar after the blood-collection operation is complete so that a pull on the strand retracts the piston back into the tube carrying along the needle fitted to its mount. In the fully retracted position, the needle ends are shielded by the tube substantially preventing needlestick accidents.

Inventor: STYMNE STEN
IPC: C07K16/16
Filed: 1998-04-09
Granted: 2010-07-13
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to novel genetic sequences which encode fatty acid epoxygenase enzymes. In particular, the present invention relates to genetic sequences which encode fatty acid .DELTA.12-epoxygenase enzymes comprising mixed function monooxygenase enzymes. More preferably, the present invention provides cDNA sequences which encode plant fatty acid epoxygenases, in particular the Crepis palaestina .DELTA.12-epoxygenase and homologues, analogues and derivatives thereof. The genetic sequences of the present invention provide the means by which fatty acid metabolism may be altered or manipulated in organisms such as yeasts, moulds, bacteria, insects, birds, mammals and plants, in particular to convert unsaturated fatty acids to epoxygenated fatty acids therein. The invention extends to genetically modified oil-accumulating organisms transformed with the subject genetic sequences and to the oils derived therefrom. The oils thus produced provide the means for the cost-effective raw materials for use in the efficient production of coatings, resins, glues, plastics, surfactants and lubricants, amongst others.

Granted: 2007-07-24
Abstract: A switch interface connected between a fibre optic cable and a switching fabric includes a line interface block, a fabric interface block, and ingress and egress data transfer blocks coupled independently between the line interface and fabric interface blocks. The ingress data transfer block has a cross-connection block connected to the line interface block, four memories, two processors, and the fabric interface block. With use of the cross-connection block, at any one time, one memory is coupled to the line interface block, one memory is coupled to one processor, one memory is coupled to the other processor, and the last memory is coupled to the fabric interface. Controlled by a memory control, the memories rotate which block each is coupled to, so that each memory is coupled to every block within a single cycle. Therefore, data information units traversing the ingress data transfer block do not require to be transferred between memories during the processing stages. The egress data transfer block operates in a similar fashion.
