Abstract: This invention relates to interdigitation-fusion (IF) liposomes and gels. These liposomes and gels capture high solute to lipid ratios, including bioactive agent. This invention also relates to the discovery that the fusion of liposomes to produce IF gel and liposomes according to the present invention is size dependent. The present invention also relates to a method for producing IF liposomes and gels. In the method of the present invention, sized liposomes formed by sonication, extrusion or alternative processes are fused in the presence of ethanol or other suitable inducer. This process results in a composition of the present invention in gel form. To produce liposomes, the gels are exposed to a temperature usually but not necessarily above the transition temperature (Tm) of the lipid used. The temperature required by the methods of the invention is that temperature which induces a change in the material properties of the mixture. The inducer may also be removed. The result is a composition comprising liposomes containing high solute to lipid ratios. The IF liposomes and gels of the present invention may be used in combination with numerous solutes, especially including bioactive agents.

Abstract: The invention relates to (1) pressure-mediated dissociation of an analyte complexed with an endogenous binding partner to enable detection of a complex formed from the analyte and an exogenous binding factor, (2) pressure-mediated association of an analyte and an exogenous binding partner to enable more rapid and/or more sensitive detection of an analyte, and (3) pressure-mediated association and dissociation of biomolecular complexes to enable separation of one biomolecule from a complex mixture. Pressure can be used to improve assays by dissociating endogenous analyte complexes and improving assay speed and sensitivity by associating the analyte molecules with exogenously supplied binding partners. Pressure can also be used to improve the separation of compounds from contaminated mixtures.Methods of assaying an analyte in a sample having an endogenous complex between the analyte and an endogenous sample component include dissociating the analyte from the endogenous component using pressure and reacting the analyte with an exogenously supplied specific binding reagent to determine complexation between the analyte and the binding reagent.

Abstract: A laser-sinterable powder product has been prepared having unique properties which allow the powder to be sintered in a selective laser sintering machine to form a sintered part which is near-fully dense. For most purposes, the sintered part is indistinguishable from another part having the same dimensions made by isotropically molding the powder. In addition to being freely flowable at a temperature near its softening temperature, a useful powder is disclosed that has a two-tier distribution in which substantially no primary particles have an average diameter greater than 180  mu m, provided further that the number average ratio of particles smaller than 53  mu m is greater than 80%, the remaining larger particles being in the size range from 53  mu m to 180  mu m. A powder with slow recrystallization rates, as evidenced by non-overlapping endothermic and exothermic peaks in their differential scanning calorimetry characteristics for scan rates of on the order of 10 DEG  C. to 20 DEG  C. per minute, will also result in sintered parts that are near-fully dense, with minimal dimensional distortion.

Abstract: A method for the transmission of data between a terminal and a portable data carrier via a wireless electromagnetic transmission link wherein a carrier signal modulated by 100 % ASK data acts as a timing signal in the data carrier and the significance of data is determined by the shifting position in the carrier signal within a time slot and the information content of a shifting position corresponds to a number of N bits, whereby N is larger than or equal to 2. The significance of these N bits is defined by the shifting position within 2<N> possible positions in a time slot. At the beginning or the end of a time slot there is a zero-time interval, in which there is no occurrence of a shifting point allocated to the data to be transmitted in order to avoid unacceptably long malfunctioning of the carrier signal.

The device consist of a sterilizable transparent and/or translucent disposable container which may be at least partially filled with a suitable sterile biological cell and/or tissue culture medium and/or axenic inoculant and/or sterile air and/or required other sterile additives. The container has means for removing excess air and/or waste gases therefrom, and means for introducing the inoculant and/or culture medium and/or additives therein. The device also has at least one air inlet, and preferably a plurality thereof, for introducing sterile air into the device. The device is characterised by having a reusable harvesting means comprising suitable flow control means for enabling harvesting of at least a portion of the medium containing cells and/or tissue when desired, thereby enabling the device to be used continuously for at least one subsequent consecutive culturing/harvesting cycle. The portion of medium containing cells and/or tissue remaining from a previously harvested cycle may serve as inoculant for a next culture and harvest cycle, culture medium and/or additives being provided. The device may thus be used continuously in consecutive cycles, and may be disposed of when it becomes contaminated. In a second aspect of the invention, a battery of these devices, suitably interconnected, enables the scale of production of cells/tissues to be adjusted when required.
