Abstract: A safety device to be used with a vial, or capsule, has a collar dimensioned to slidably fit about the body of the vial. Extending from the collar is a neck member that has connected to its other end a housing pivotable to a position along the longitudinal axis of the vial. A latch member having a lip is integrated to the neck member and extends out from the neck member in a direction towards the center of the collar. Neck member is fabricated to have an elastic characteristic so that if it is not biased by any external force, it will return to its original position. As the collar of the safety device is moved along the body of the vial, neck member is biased away from the vial as the latch member maintains contact along the outer surface of the vial, and then the outer surface of the hub formed at the top end of the vial. Once the collar of the safety device is moved to a position adjacent the hub, given the configuration of the neck member forms a space between the top of the collar and the lip of the latch member, the hub of the vial would fit within the space thus formed, as neck member snaps back to its original position. At which time the lip of latch member latches onto a shoulder portion of the hub. Once latched onto the hub, the latch member would prevent the safety device from being removed from the vial. Instead of the neck member, another embodiment of the inventive safety device has extending from the collar a rigid support frame and an elongate elastic latch member.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for supplying regularly objects to a work station.  The objects have gripper elements arranged on two opposite sides whereby successive objects lying next to each other are guided on a moveable conveyor belt, subsequently decollated and individually supplied to the work station at a working pace.  The aim of the invention is to provide a method enabling objects to be guided successively and individually in a stabile position and in a longitudinal direction of the work station in such a way that they remain undamaged.  To achieve this, the objects (G, G.O, G.1, G.2) are guided with the opposite lying sides perpendicular to the direction of conveyance with inter-engaging gripper elements (10) and are decollated by pushing back the following object (G2)counter to the back-up pressure caused by the subsequent objects (G) on the conveyor belt (conveyor belt 1) at a working pace.  The decollated object (G1) is reconveyed perpendicular to the conveyor belt (conveyor belt 1) and is supplied to the work station using the opposite lying sides along a guidance strip.  A substantial component of the device is a decollating device (2) and a rotary table (6) which is arranged above a fixed sliding surface (6) on the end of the conveyor belt (conveyor belt 1).

Abstract: Formulations for controlled, prolonged release of bioactive molecules such as therapeutic proteins, peptides and oligonucleotides have been developed. These formulations are based on solid microparticles or nanoparticles formed of the combination of biodegradable, synthetic polymers such as poly(lactic acid) (PLA), poly(glycolic acid) (PGA), and copolymers thereof. Bioactive molecules are coupled to hydrophilic polymers such as polyethylene glycol or polypropylene glycol and formulated to provide controlled release. The bioactive molecules are more stable, less immunogenic and have improved release rate profiles with lower burst levels and increased drug loading relative to the same bioactive molecules lacking coupled hydrophilic polymers. The controlled release formulations can be administered by injection, by inhalation, nasally, or orally.

Abstract: We disclose methods for measuring vitamin D metabolite in plasma or serum samples. The methods comprise a step of adding to the plasma or serum samples a non-competitive displacement agent comprising 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid ammonium salt, 3-(acetonylbenzyl)-4-hydroxycoumarin and a water miscible solvent. The non-competitive displacement agent separates vitamin D metabolite from binding proteins in the sample, such that the displaced vitamin D metabolite is available for capture and detection in subsequent binding assays. Thus, our invention finds use in methods of separating and detecting vitamin D metabolites otherwise tightly bound to plasma or serum binding proteins.
