Title: Use of lamellarin-class alkaloids in methods of treatment
Inventor: PUENTES JOSE LUIS FERNANDEZ
IPC: A61P35/00
Filed: 1996-06-26
Granted: 1999-01-07
Abstract: The lamellarin compounds disclosed herein have been found to be inhibitors of MDR, i.e., acquired multidrug resistance, which has become a major problem in the treatment of various cancers. The lamellarin compounds disclosed herein have also been found to be cytotoxic to MDR cells. MDR is believed to be associated with certain alterations in tumor cells, including an over-expression of a certain high molecular weight membrane glycoprotein and a decrease in the ability of the tumor cell to accumulate and retain chemotherapeutic agents. The present invention is thus directed to methods of treating MDR-type tumors with an effective anti-MDR amount (either inhibitory or cytotoxic) of one or more lamellarin compounds, which compounds have been found to be effective antitumoral agents against MDR cells.

Patent AU-639556-B2 (AU)
Title: Contraband detection system using direct imaging pulsed fast neutrons
IPC: G01N23/222
Filed: 1991-01-09
Granted: 1993-07-29
Abstract: A system and method for detecting contraband generates a highly collimated beam of pulsed fast neutrons, having a pulse width on the order of a nanosecond, and an energy of 5 to 9 MeV. An object under investigation is scanned with the collimated pulsed beam. The neutrons in the beam cause (n,  gamma ) reactions in a limited object volume or voxel, defined by the intersection of the collimated beam and the scanned object. The highly penetrating fast neutrons produce nuclear reactions with the atomic elements present within the object, causing gamma rays to be emitted. By measuring the approximate time of flight of the neutron pulse, a determination is made as to the particular voxel from which the gamma ray originated. The energy of the detected gamma rays identifies the particular elements from which the gamma rays originated. Thus, e.g., the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and chlorine content, which elements are commonly found in contraband, of a particular voxel can be determined directly and precisely. This voxel content information may be combined from a substantial sample of the voxels that make up the object to provide a direct indication of the elemental content of the object, and hence whether contraband is present or absent within the object.

Title: A distributed system and method for prefetching objects
Inventor: CARNEAL BRUCE L
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1998-08-05
Granted: 2001-08-23
Abstract: An satellite-based internet access includes uses a distributed proxy server that reduces a delay associated with the retrieval of inline objects of web pages. The distributed proxy server includes a first component which runs on the browser side of the satellite link and communicates with web browsers, and a second component which runs on an Internet side of the satellite link and communicates with web servers. When a web page is requested over the satellite link, the second component determines whether the parent file includes any references to inline objects, and prefetches each such inline object. The prefetched objects are transmitted over the satellite link to the first component, which in-turn stores the prefetched objects in a cache and provides the prefetched objects to the requesting web browser. The first component may also block browser requests for prefetched inline objects from unnecessarily being transmitted over the satellite link.

Title: Circuit wiring test connector - has sockets containing springs which make contact under pressure after insertion of pins
IPC: G01R1/073
Filed: 1970-09-25
Abstract: The connector is for use in automatic testing of circuit wiring. The pins (3) from the circuit are entered into the socket without any contact pressure, a spring keeping the pressure off. When the pins are fully home the spring is released to apply pressure and make the circuits. In a typical construction the square pins (3) are a sliding fit in square contact holes (13). After the pins are pushed home the release of a spring rotates the sockets so that four points of pressure contact result. The sockets may be contained in bushes (17) which have projections (18) engaging with slots (25) in spring loaded operating sliders.

Patent JP-S6141867-B2 (JP)
IPC: C01B31/36
Filed: 1981-02-13
Abstract: Refractory parts or articles, even of very large dimensions, are made with a starting material of carbon particles mixed with silicon particles in a predetermined ratio which is suspended in a solution of a binder, after which the suspension is squirted into a precipitating liquid to coat the particles with the binder, the solids then being separated and dried, molded under slight pressure, and coked (at 800 DEG -1,000 DEG  C.), and then rapidly raised in temperature (to 1,400 DEG -1,600 DEG  C.) for formation of silicon carbide throughout the article. It is useful to add powdered silicon carbide and mix it in before the coking step and, also, to hold the heated body at a temperature somewhat below 1,400 DEG  C. long enough to remove temperature gradients within it, followed by rapid heating up to a carbide-forming temperature. The porous bodies thus formed can be heated to reduce porosity after the coking step by impregnation with a suspension of silicon powder in a resin, after which the body is again coked, or impregnation may be carried out on the completely fired body, with a liquid resin or a molten metal, after evacuation of the porous body and the application of pressure to the impregnating fluid.
