Abstract: L'invention concerne des dispositifs d'occlusion d'un vaisseau au cours d'une procédure d'ablation percutanée. Un dispositif d'accès allongé comprenant une lumière et une extrémité distale ouverte en communication avec la lumière est utilisé pour accéder par voie percutanée à un vaisseau délivrant du sang au tissu destiné à être traité. Un dispositif allongé de déploiement du ballonnet est utilisé pour mettre en place un ballonnet à l'intérieur du vaisseau. Le ballonnet est ensuite gonflé, permettant l'occlusion du vaisseau. Le tissu à traiter est alors soumis à une ablation. En raison de la faible quantité ou de l'absence de sang pour transférer l'énergie thermique du tissu chauffé, la procédure d'ablation est réalisée plus efficacement. Le ballonnet peut ensuite être dégonflé, permettant le retour d'un flux normal dans le vaisseau.

Abstract: This invention is a transportable organ preservation system that substantially increases the time during which the organ can be maintained viable for successful implantation into a human recipient. A chilled oxygenated nutrient solution is pumped through the vascular bed of the organ after excision of the organ from the donor and during transport. The device of the present invention uses flexible permeable tubing to oxygenate the perfusion fluid while the CO.sub.2 produced by the organ diffuses out of the perfusion fluid. One pressurized two liter "C" cylinder that contains 255 liters of oxygen at standard temperature and pressure can supply oxygen for up to 34 hours of perfusion time. The device uses a simple electric pump driven by a storage battery to circulate the perfusion fluid through the organ being transported. The vessel containing the organ to be transported is held at 4.degree. C. by coolant blocks.

Abstract: A dosage form that facilitates the controlled release of an active agent at a desired release rate or release rate profile includes a bi-layer membrane system and an osmotic core. The bi-layer membrane system includes a semipermeable membrane and an osmosensitive membrane and forms an internal compartment occupied by the osmotic core. The osmotic core includes an active agent composition and a light push layer. A passageway is formed through the bi-layer membrane system and permits expulsion of the active agent composition from the dosage form during operation. The bi-layer membrane system and the osmotic core are formulated and formed to provide controlled release of the active agent included in the active agent composition, while simultaneously facilitating increased loading of active agent within a dosage form of given dimension and increasing the delivery efficiency of such active agent relative to prior osmotic dosage forms including a push layer.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the synthesis of molecules guided by connector polynucleotides (CPNs) capable of hybridizing to complementory connector polynucleotides (CCPNs) harbouring at least one functional entity comprising at least one reactive group. At least one of said CCPNs hybridize to at least two CPNs. Each CPN will "call" for one or more CCPNs capable of hybridising to the CPN. Following the formation of a supramolecular hybridization complex comprising a plurality of CPNs and a plurality of CCPNs, the reaction of functional entity reactive groups result in the formation of a molecule comprising covalently linked functional entities. The formation of the molecule involves the transfer of functional entities from one or more "donor CCPNs" to at least one "acceptor CCPN" with which the transferred functional entities were not associated prior to the transfer.
