Title: Method and apparatus for selecting non-opacious dental materials
Inventor: TOUCHSTONE C ALEX
IPC: A61C5/77
Filed: 2005-06-29
Abstract: A method and system for selecting dental constructions using translucent materials that match an individual's preexisting tooth appearance uses a set of reference templates. The reference templates are constructed from layers of various translucent dental materials positioned on bases constructed from actual or simulated tooth structures. The layers of translucent materials have a thickness that varies in increments that correspond to the likely thicknesses of the materials when used in dental constructions. A reference table is created based upon color measurements of each of the reference templates. A color measurement of the individual's preexisting teeth is then compared to the reference table to determine which particular dental construction will most closely match the individual's preexisting teeth.

Title: Gasoline production by olefin polymerization
Inventor: CHENG JANE CHI-YA
IPC: C07C2/02
Filed: 2006-02-28
Abstract: Solid phosphoric acid (SPA) olefin oligomerization process units may be converted to operation with a more environmentally favorable solid catalyst.  The SPA units in which a light olefin feed is oligomerized to form gasoline boiling range hydrocarbon product, is converted unit to operation with a molecular sieve based olefin oligomerization catalyst comprising an MWW  zeolite material. Besides being more environmentally favorable in use, the MWW  based zeolites offer advantages in catalyst cycle life, selectivity and product quality. After loading of the catalyst, the converted unit is operated as a fixed-bed unit by passing the C2-C4 olefinic feed to a fixed bed of the MWW zeolite condensation catalyst, typically at a temperature from 150 to 250~C, a pressure not greater than 7000 kPag, usually less than 4000 kPag and a space velocity up to 30 WHSV. The gasoline boiling range product is notable for a high level of branched chain octenes resulting in high octane quality.

Patent CA-2618655-A1 (CA)
Title: Compositions and methods for making and using nanoemulsions
Inventor: NICOLOSI ROBERT
IPC: A23L33/00
Filed: 2006-07-11
Abstract: The present invention discloses an improved nanoemulsion comprising a uniform and discrete range of very small particle nano-sized diameters. This uniformity results in improved bioavailability of incorporated compounds (i.e., pharmaceuticals or nutraceuticals) as reflected in various pharmacokinetic parameters including, but not limited to, decreased Tmax, increased Cmax, and increased AUC. The improved method of making these uniform nanoemulsions utilizes microfluidization which differs in both process and mechanics when compared to conventional milling and grinding techniques used to generate nanoparticulate compositions. Further, the improvement results, in part, from a novel step of mixing a substantially soluble compound into a heated dispersion medium. This is unlike current nanoparticulate composition methods that mix an insoluble compound with an unheated dispersion medium.  Further, these nanoemulsions are observed to be bacterial-resistant and stable to extremes in both temperature and pH changes. Consequently, these nanoemulsions are expected to have a significantly prolonged shelf-life than currently available nanoemulsions.
