Patent EP-0299661-A3 (EP)
IPC: G01N35/10
Filed: 1988-07-04
Abstract: A liquid handling system includes flow network 
module structure that defines a contained array of flow 
channels and a plurality of valves for controlling 
liquid flow through the flow channel array. The flow 
network module structure is adapted to be connected to 
an external source for applying a pressure differential 
to the flow network array to produce liquid flow within 
passages of the array. Also incorporated in the flow 
network module is chamber structure that is connected to 
the flow channel array and that has port structure in an 
outer surface of the module structure. Valve structure 
on the module structure is movable between a first 
position in which the port structure is closed and a 
second position in which the port structure is opened, 
the valve structure including actuator structure for 
moving a valve member between the first and second 
positions. Liquid transfer structure, including 
transport structure and probe structure carried on the 
transport structure, is adapted to cause movement of the 
valve structure from its first position to its second 
position concurrently with the movement of the probe 
structure into alignment with the chamber port structure 
for delivery of a quantity of sample material to the 
sample chamber and subsequent flow through the flow 
network array for interaction with an auxiliary fluid 
and transfer to an associated utilization device under 
the influence of an external pressure source.

Title: Antiviral therapy for hepatitis b using 2',3'-dideoxynucleosides
Inventor: TYRRELL DAVID L J
IPC: C07D473/24
Filed: 1988-08-08
Abstract: A method is disclosed for the treatment of hepadnavirus infection in animals. Animals infected with duck hepatitis B virus may be treated with the 2 min ,3 min -dideoxynucleoside of adenine, guanine, hypoxanthine, 2,6-diaminopurine or various analogs of substituted purines. Several purine 2 min ,3 min -dideoxynucleosides inhibit duck hepatitis B virus in hepatocyte culture >99% at 1  mu g/ml. Potent in vivo efficacy of the 2,6-diaminopurine 2 min ,3 min -dideoxynucleoside for clearance of duck hepatitis B virus from the sera of Pekin ducks is demonstrated. The selective effect on hepadnavirus replication by the purine 2 min ,3 min -dideoxynucleosides is based on the discovery of an unexpected sensitivity of hepadnavirus to purine 2 min ,3 min -dideoxynucleoside analogs. These compounds present a new antiviral therapy of acute or persistent hepadnavirus infections.

Title: Auxiliary osteosynthesis system
IPC: A61B17/60
Filed: 1990-05-17
Abstract: A foot and ankle supporting and orienting extension for an external fixation unit with pins driven into the tibia of a patient has a coupling member which can be separably connected to a pin holder of a fixation unit, a variable-length carrier one end of which is articulately connected to the coupling member by a first universal joint and the other end of which is articulately connected to one end of a variabele-length link by a second universal joint, and a cushioned sole-contacting brace which is articulately connected to the other end of the link by a third universal spherical joint. By properly selecting the mutual inclination of the coupling member, carrier, link and brace relative to each other and/or by properly selecting the length of the carrier and/or the link, the patient or another authorized person can move the cushion of the brace to an optimum position relative to the sole of a foot forming part of a leg wherein the tibia is pinned to a fixation unit. This ensures that the foot and the ankle can rest in an optimum orientation. The joints can be locked to prevent articulation of the carrier, coupling member, link and brace relative to each other as soon as the cushion of the brace assumes an optimum position relative to the sole.
