Patent EP-0528911-A4 (EP)
Title: Stamps
IPC: B26F3/02
Filed: 1991-05-13
Abstract: An improved stamp is disclosed which has the appearance of a conventional perforated edge stamp. The stamp has simulated edge perforations (1) produced by cutting a series of concave portions (5) and series of convex portions (7). The concave portions (5) smoothly terminate with the concave portions (7). The stamps can be produced on an elongate web (3) and be carried on a backing web (17) by a peel and stick adhesive (9). By cutting the simulated perforations (1) with the smoothly terminating concave, convex portions (5, 7) it is possible to strip unwanted skeleton material on which the stamp is printed from the backing web (17), thereby leaving the stamps in spaced apart separate relation on the backing web (17) for subsequent individual peeling therefrom. A method for producing the stamps and a cutting die for cutting the stamps is also disclosed.
Patent EP-0543928-A4 (EP)
Title: Analyzing heart wall motion using spatial modulation of magnetization
IPC: A61B5/055
Filed: 1991-08-19
Abstract: A technique for generating "optimal" radio frequency pulses for use in creating SPAMM imaging stripes and for quantitatively determining the displacements of the imaging stripes during a pre-imaging interval. The imaging operator selects the desired stripe parameters (304) so that the resulting SPAMM imaging stripe will have the desired narrowness, sharpness, flatness and the like. These parameters are then used by an optimal pulse generating system (212) to generate the input radio frequency pulse sequence which will produce the desired stripes. Tagging of the heart wall or some other soft tissue structure with a grid of planes of altered magnetization is then used to provide finite element analysis to quantify regional heart wall motion and the like. The intersections of the tagging stripes are used as a set of fiducial marks within the heart wall, and the motion of these intersections through the heart cycle is used to track the motion of the underlying tissue.

Title: Separation of active complexes
Inventor: SKOZA FRANCIS C JR
IPC: C12N15/87
Filed: 1996-05-28
Abstract: The invention separates defined, active complexes by a characteristic from Defined, active complexes that share a particular physicochemical characteristic such as density, surface charge or particle size are separated from complexes formed by the association of a polynucleotide with a transfecting component that increases transfection activity, such as a lipid, cationic lipid, liposome, peptide, cationic peptide, dendrimer or polycation. In a preferred embodiment, polynucleotide-transfecting component complexes are ultracentrifuged to resolve one or more bands corresponding to complexes having a specific polynucleotide-transfecting component interaction. Polynucleotide complexes having a cationic liposome transfecting component resolve into two primary bands corresponding to complexes formed either under excess lipid conditions or under excess polynucleotide conditions. In an alternate embodiment, polynucleotide-transfecting component complexes are resolved using cross-flow electrophoresis to identify complexes having specific interactions and to separate them from excess initial components.

Abstract: The composite material, consisting of a thermosetting resin, reinforcing fibres and a filler, contained in a hollow cylinder (1) is, in the first instance, compacted by means of a piston (2) movable in the said cylinder until a predetermined level of compacting is obtained. At the end of the compacting phase, the position of the piston (2) is referenced by means of a position sensor (15). The compacted composite material is then injected into a mould (13) by giving the piston (2), from its position referenced at the end of the compacting phase, a displacement corresponding to the injection into the mould (13) of the quantity of composite material strictly required for making the moulded part. Thus wasting of composite material is avoided. <IMAGE>
