Patent AU-2055983-A (AU)
Title: Concrete strengthening members, particularly prestressing tendons, having improved corrosion resistance and/or bonding characteristics, and methods relating thereto
Inventor: HUNT FREDERICK F
IPC: E04C5/01
Filed: 1983-10-25
Abstract: Concrete strengthening members, particularly prestressing tendons such as strands of steel wire, are provided with a strongly adherent plastic coating which may be substantially impermeable for improved corrosion resistance, and/or which may have embedded therein abrasive or grit-form particles to provide improved bond with the concrete, and particularly to provide controllable bond transfer in prestressing tendons of the pretensioned type. The plastic coating preferably is applied electrostatically in powder form, and fusion bonded by heat. The abrasive can be applied by spraying during a viscous state of the heated resin, and can be varied as to size and spacing density so as to control the surface condition and the bonding effect. Fusion and curing heat may come from preheating of the member before application of the resin powder, which preferably is a heat curable, thermosetting epoxy. Coating thickness and grit application are readily variable to meet particular requirements. Particularly advantageous results are achievable for high strength steel strands for prestressing concrete by pretensioning, facilitating their use where previously considered impractical or impossible.

Title: Implantation of prosthetic devices
Inventor: GIBSON DAVID
IPC: A61F2/16
Filed: 1988-11-09
Abstract: Prosthetic devices are prepared for subepithelial implantation by coating their surfaces with a coating (30) comprising crosslinked or uncrosslinked fibronectin. If the surface of the device comprises a material which does not normally bind fibronectin, it is pretreated, for example, by coating with poly(L-lysine). The coated prosthetic device is implanted by removing a portion of the epithelium (12), affixing the coated device to the subepithelial tissue optionally replacing all or part of the removed epithelium, and allowing new epithelial tissue to grow over and affix itself to the surface of the prosthetic device. The method of the invention can be used to implant contact lenses permanently beneath the epithelium of the cornea (10).

Abstract: A method of interrupting the expression of a macromolecular synthesis operon in bacteria comprising the step of binding an antisense oligonucleotide to a single stranded DNA or to a mRNA transcribed from the macromolecular synthesis operon. The antisense oligonucleotide can be either sequence specific to a unique intergenic sequence or a sequence specific to a bacterial homologous sequence. By interrupting the expression of the macromolecular synthesis operon bacterial infections can be treated. Examples of antisense oligonucleotides are 5'CATCCAAGCAGTGGTAAAACTGTTT 3', 5'TCACCGATCGGCGTTTCCA 3', 5'GGCCCCGATTTTAGCAA 3', 5'CTTGCGTAAGCGCCGGGGG 3', and 5'TATTCGATGCTTTAGTGC 3'. The ability of the antisense oligonucleotide to bind the mRNA or single stranded DNA also allows the identification of the bacteria by using a unique intergenic antisense oligonucleotide to bind to the single stranded DNA or to the mRNA transcribed form the macromolecular synthesis operon. A method for competitively inhibiting the protein products of the MMS operon with oligonucleotides is also disclosed.
