Patent AU-2240795-A (AU)
Title: Method and apparatus for oil/water separation using a dual electrode centrifugal coalescer
Inventor: SAMS GARY W
IPC: B01D17/038
Filed: 1995-04-05
Abstract: A method and apparatus for augmenting the coalescence of water in a water-in-oil emulsion. The apparatus includes a tubular vessel having a cylindrical side wall and opposed ends. A tangential inlet in the cylindrical side wall is adjacent one of the vessel ends. A tubular electrode having an external diameter less than the internal diameter of the vessel extends concentrically within the vessel from the one end less than the entire length of the vessel. An elongated electrode extends axially and concentrically within the tubular electrode from the one end. An outlet is provided in the one end between the tubular electrode and the elongated electrode. The inlet and outlet serve to cause fluid to initially flow through the vessel in a circumferential path outside the tubular electrode and thereafter axially through the tubular electrode to the outlet. An electrical potential is applied between the electrodes and the vessel.

Title: Medical material removal method and associated instrumentation
Inventor: GELBFISH GARY A
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 1997-05-28
Abstract: A cutting member (6) for a medical material removal instrument (2) comprises a cutting head having an axis (8) and an elongate drive rod (10) eccentrically attached at a distal end to the cutting head at a location spaced from the axis. The drive rod extends substantially parallel to the axis. The cutting member is used with an introducer sheath (4) or catheter which has a distal end portion inserted into a patient. The cutting head is provided with a cut-out (12) on the proximal side in part for enabling a drawing of material in a proximal direction internally from a patient into a distal end of the sheath (14) upon a partial ejection of the cutt ing head from the distal end of the sheath during a material removal operation. The material drawn into the sheath is severed in a scissors-type action of the cutting head against the distal end of the sheath upon a drawing of the cutting head via the drive rod into the distal end of the sheath. The cutting head has a maximal transverse cross-section conforming in a close fit to an inner surface of the sheath and is tapered from the maximal transverse cross-section in a proximal direction to facilitate a smooth and unobstructed drawing of the cutting head into the distal end of the sheath and also without damaging the sheath. The cutting head has an at least approximately semicylindrical outer surface (16) located between the maximal transverse cross-section and a most proximal end (18) of the cutting head. The semicylindrical outer surface serves to ensure a locating of the drive rod eccentrically relative to the sheath upon the drawing of the cutting head into the distal end of the sheath. Irrigation is optionally provided to aid in clot removal.
Patent AU-2379195-A (AU)
Title: Dna sequencing by stepwise ligation and cleavage
Inventor: BRENNER SYDNEY
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1995-03-24
Abstract: The invention provides a method of nucleic acid sequence analysis based on repeated cycles of ligation to and cleavage of probes at the terminus of a target polynucleotide. At each such cycle one or more terminal nucleotides are identified and one or more nucleotides are removed from the end of the target polynucleotide, such that further cycles of ligation and cleavage can take place. At each cycle the target sequence is shortened by one or more nucleotides until the nucleotide sequence of the target polynucleotide is determined. The method obviates electrophoretic separation of similarly sized DNA fragments and eliminates the difficulties associated with the detection and analysis of spacially overlapping bands of DNA fragments in a gel, or like medium. The invention further obviates the need to generate DNA fragments from long single stranded templates with a DNA polymerase.

Title: Fluid testing sensor for use in dispensing instrument
Inventor: BRENNEMAN ALLEN J
IPC: B01L99/00
Filed: 1997-06-05
Abstract: A sensor for use in a sensor dispensing instrument so that fluids can be tested when the sensor is ejected from within a sensor cavity of a sensor pack sealed by a foil. The sensor has a generally flat, rectangular shape and is formed by a base and a lid. The sensor has a perpendicularly extending longitudinal and transverse axes. A rear end of the sensor has a notch that is engaged by a knife blade within the sensor dispensing instrument as the sensor is being ejected through the foil from the sensor cavity. A front testing edge of the lid overhangs a front testing edge of the base of the sensor. One side edge of the sensor adjacent the front edges of the base and lid is beveled at about a 25 DEG  angle. The front base edge extends from the beveled side portion across the entire remaining width of the sensor at an angle of approximately 10 DEG with respect to the transverse axis. A first major portion of the front lid edge extends from the beveled side portion across a significant portion of the width of the sensor at an angle of about 15 DEG  with respect to the transverse axis of the sensor. The other portion of the front lid edge extends at an angle of about 25 DEG  with respect to the transverse axis of the sensor so that a relatively pointed tip at the side edge opposite from the beveled side portion is formed to pierce the foil as the sensor is being ejected from the cavity. <IMAGE>

Title: Sonic temperature warning device for lids of cooking vessels
Inventor: FAVRE CHARLES-ANDRE
IPC: G01K5/70
Filed: 1984-04-19
Abstract: A movable permanent magnet (38) is moved by a rotating rig (29, 30) driven by a spiral thermometer (27).

Title: Collecting bag
Inventor: OLSEN ESKIL HOEJLAND
IPC: A61F5/443
Filed: 2001-01-26
Abstract: A flange for a medical collecting bag having an aperture allowing bodily fluids or exudates to enter the bag. The flange has an inner rim delimiting the aperture therein, and a central area encircling the aperture, which area has a predetermined weakening line pattern. The force needed for removing the bag flange from the skin or a body side member is smaller than the force needed for breaking the weakening lines which enables a simple gradual enlargement of the aperture of an ostomy device for adaptation of the aperture to the size of the stoma or for adaptation of the aperture to the size of a wound, as well as a complete removal of the bag flange when substituting the bag.

Title: Method for producing angular, stainless shot-blasting abrasives based on an fe-cr-c alloy
Inventor: SAENGER REINHARD
IPC: C21D1/76
Filed: 2001-01-11
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing rust-resistant, angular shot-blasting abrasives (>60 HRC) based on a Fe-Cr-C alloy. According to said method, a granulate consisting of an iron-chrome-carbon alloy is tempered to >60 HRC by subjecting it to a thermal treatment of greater than 900° Celsius in a reduced atmosphere. A stainless, hard material which can be reduced to angular granules is thus produced. This results in shot-blasting abrasives with excellent characteristics for treating the surface of workpieces consisting of stainless material, e.g. stainless steel, non-ferrous metal and natural stone.

Title: Method for producing a recombinant baculovirus expression vector
Inventor: SMITH GALE E
IPC: C12N15/62
Filed: 1984-05-25
Abstract: A method for producing a recombinant baculovirus expression vector, capable of expressing a selected gene in a host insect cell, is disclosed. The method involves cleaving baculovirus DNA to produce a DNA fragment comprising a polyhedrin gene or portion thereof, including a polyhedrin promoter. A recombinant transfer vector is prepared by inserting said DNA fragment into a cloning vehicle and there-after inserting a selected gene into the thus modified cloning vehicle such that it is under the transcriptional control of the polyhedrin promoter. The recombinant transfer fector is contacted with a baculovirus DNA so as to effect recombination and incorporation of the selected gene into the baculovirus genome. The resultant recombinant baculovirus is then used to infect susceptible insects or cultured insect cells and the protein product from the incorporated selected gene is produced from the infection.
