Patent AU-3988799-A (AU)
Title: Novel lentiviral packaging cells
Inventor: LEBOULCH PHILIPPE
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 1999-05-13
Abstract: Novel packaging cell lines which produce recombinant retrovirus, free of detectable helper-virus are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of making the cell lines and methods of producing recombinant retroviruses from the cell lines. Retroviruses produced by the cell lines include lentiviruses, such as HIV, capable of transfering heterologous DNA to a wide range of non-dividing cells. The packaging cells contain at least three vectors which collectively encode retroviral gag, pol, and env proteins, wherein the gag and pol genes are separated, in part, onto two or more different vectors. This is made possible by fusing Vpr or Vpx to pol proteins separated from gag so that the proteins are targeted to assembling virions. Among other advantages, the packaging cells provide the benefit of increased safety when used in human gene therapy by virtually eliminating the possibility of molecular recombination leading to production of replication competent helper virus.

Patent AU-4594100-A (AU)
Title: Container closure
Inventor: SHOWERING FRANCIS
IPC: B65D43/02
Filed: 2000-05-09
Abstract: A press-fit container closure (14) includes a plurality of depending segmented lugs with snap-fit projections for engaging behind the rim of a container mouth. An integral band (30) embraces the lugs to lock the closure (14) securely on the container mouth. To remove the closure (14), the band (30) is lifted away (e.g. pivoted upwards). The lugs are then free to flex outwardly, allowing the closure (14) to be lifted off the container mouth. The band (30) may be secured to the lugs by frangible connections (34) to provide a tamper evident feature. One or more predetermined lugs may be designed to be released prior to other lugs during opening, to vent internal pressure from within the container while the remaining lugs hold the closure securely and prevent the closure from blowing off the container mouth. The closure may have a dome-shaped upper surface and may be lined. The closure is particularly suited for use with containers having mouths of at least 40 mm diameter.

Title: Process for synthesizing metal oxides and metal oxides having a perovskite or perovskite-like crystal structure
Inventor: KALIAGUINE SERGE
IPC: C01B13/32
Filed: 1999-07-15
Abstract: Metal oxides having a perovskite or perovskite-like crystal structure are prepared by a process comprising subjecting a mixture of starring powders to a high energy milling sufficient to induce chemical reaction of the components and thereby directly mechanosynthesize said metal oxide in the form of a perovskite or a perovskite-like material having a nanocrystalline structure as determined by X-ray diffractometry. The process according to the present invention is simple, efficient, not expensive and does not require any heating step for producing a perovskite that may easily show a very high specific surface area. Another advantage is that the perovskite obtained according to the present invention also has a high density of lattice defects thereby showing a higher catalytic activity, a characteristic which is highly desirable in their eventual application as catalysts and electronic conductors.

Title: Blow mold annealing and heat treating articles
Inventor: MERO CHRISTOPHER
IPC: B29C49/18
Filed: 1993-09-21
Abstract: An apparatus for annealing and heat treating biaxially oriented articles is disclosed, particularly blow molded articles prepared from preforms which are simultaneously annealed using warm fluid in a first segmented mold. The blown article is transferred to a second, larger mold where the article is pressurized against the mold to form the final container design and to heat treat at least a portion of the bottle wall to improve crystallinity and strength. Portions of the mold, used to form and anneal the articles, are temperature controlled at various temperatures by passing warm water through conduits in the neck-shoulder portion and body portion of the mold and cold water through the bottom and shoulder portion of the mold to bring the temperature of the article wall to about 65 DEG  C. to 95 DEG  C. for PET bottles. The second mold is up to 10% larger in volume and preferably employs resistance heating to heat treat the side wall to 110 DEG  C. to 220 DEG  C. and the neck-shoulder wall to less than the side wall but within the 110 DEG  C. to 220 DEG  C. temperature range for up to 30 seconds. The article is next cooled by injecting an evaporatable fluid like water which evaporates and immediately cools the article which is then removed from the mold. The heat treatment increases the article's structural strength, does not affect biaxial crystallinity reduces gas permeability, retains transparency and allows for multiple reuse of the article including hot washing thereof.
Patent AU-4958797-A (AU)
Title: Scanning electron microscope
Inventor: SUDRAUD PIERRE
IPC: H01J37/28
Filed: 1997-11-14
Abstract: A scanning electron microscope has means for generating a beam of electrons which is scanned over a specimen held within a holder in a chamber which contains a gaseous medium. A negative potential is applied to the holder so as to generate an electric field which accelerates secondary electrons, formed by the interaction or the primary beam with the specimen, in a direction away from the specimen surface and into a collision zone in the chamber. In that zone, the accelerated secondary electrons collide with gas molecules of the gaseous medium, thereby initiating a cascade of collisions which, in effect, amplifies the secondary electron signal. That signal (which may take the form of photons generated as a result of the collisions) is detected by detecting means, such as a photo-multiplier.

Title: Location updating in a cellular radio system
Inventor: LAATU JUHO
IPC: H04W48/08
Filed: 1993-11-30
Abstract: The invention relates to a cellular radio network and a method for performing location updating in a cellular radio system. The cellular radio network does not employ fixed location areas, as prior cellular radio networks do, but it employs a location area configuration which is subscriber station specific and dynamically adaptive. In connection with each location updating, it is therefore possible to select an optimal location area for the subscriber station at that particular moment, the selected location area being preferably of an arbitrary size and form. It is thus possible to define the location area subscriber station specifically in such a manner that, on one hand, it is sufficiently large so that the subscriber station does not have to perform location updating frequently but, on the other hand, sufficiently small so that the paging of the subscriber station does not load the cellular radio network too much. The network and method also allow the use of completely subscriber station specific location areas.
