Patent AU-3152897-A (AU)
Title: High speed image acquisition system and method
Inventor: HECHT KURT
IPC: G06K7/14
Filed: 1997-06-03
Abstract: A system for high speed acquisition and decoding of a barcode symbol locates potential barcode candidates within a scanned image and filters the candidates to eliminate invalid data. The system permits computational resources to be focused on decoding information most likely to be an actual barcode symbol. Once a potential barcode candidate has been located, the barcode symbol is processed to determine the barcode orientation and symbology. Each element of the barcode symbol is then located, even if all elements are not visible in the original image, and the barcode symbol is decoded in accordance with the specific symbology. <IMAGE>

Title: Osteoporosis treatment
Inventor: SHAUGHNESSY STEPHEN
IPC: C07K14/705
Filed: 1999-05-19
Abstract: There are disclosed therapeutic substances useful in a process of treating or alleviating the symptoms of a pathological condition in which bone density is decreased, which comprises inhibiting, in a mammalian patient suffering from such a condition, the formation  in vivo  of a tertiary complex of IL-II, its cell surface membrane receptor and the cell surface glycoprotein gp130. Examples of such substances are recombinant soluble IL-II receptor mutants modified, as compared with native IL-II receptor, at their gp130 binding site, and peptides which can interact with IL-II. The process not only inhibits bone resorption and hence bone loss, but also increases the process of bone formation to increase bone density.

Date Nov. 11, 1993A method is revealed for the quantitative determination of the proportion of the free form of a thyroid hormone ligand in a sample of a biological fluid in which the ligand is present partly in the free form and also partly in a form in which it is bound to physiological binding proteins. In the first step, a ligand derivative of the thyroid hormone with an immunoglobulin, a labelled specific binder, and a test tube whose walls are coated with an excess of a protein material are provided. In the second step, a sample of the biological fluid containing an unknown amount of the free thyroid hormone ligand, a solution containing a known amount of the ligand derivative, and a solution containing a known, less than stoichiometric amount of the labelled specific binder are added to the test tube to form a liquid reaction mixture. In the third step, the reaction mixture is incubated to allow the free thyroid hormone ligand and the ligand derivative in the liquid reaction mixture to compete for the binding sites of the labelled specific binder, and to allow, in a concomitant slower reaction, the binding of the immunoglobulin part of the ligand derivative to the excess of the protein material on the walls of the test tube. In the fourth step, the remaining liquid reaction mixture is removed from the test tube. In the final steps, the amount of labelled specific binder bound to the walls of the test tube is determined and the amount of the free thyroid hormone ligand calculated.
