Title: Sustained release compositions and a method of preparing pharmaceutical compositions
Inventor: HEAFIELD JOANNE
IPC: A61K31/485
Filed: 1998-02-06
Granted: 2000-07-27
Abstract: In order to provide a sustained release pharmaceutical formulation containing morphine which is suitable for administration on a once daily basis, in a first aspect, an orally administrable sustained release dosage unit form contains morphine, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as active ingredient, which formulation gives a peak plasma level at 1.0 to 6 hours after administration. In a second aspect, the formulation contains an effective amount of morphine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, characterised by a W50 for the M-6-G metabolite or for morphine of between 4 and 12 hours. In a third aspect, the pharmaceutical dosage unit form is obtainable by compressing multiparticulates comprising a pharmaceutically active substance in a matrix of hydrophobic fusible material having a melting point of from 35 to 150 DEG C, the dosage form optionally containing conventional tabletting excipients. In a further aspect of the invention, sustained release multiparticulates containing morphine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are produced by mechanically working in a high-speed mixer a mixture of particulate morphine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a particulate, hydrophobic fusible carrier or diluent having a melting point from 35 to 150 DEG C and optionally a release control component comprising a water soluble fusible material or a particulate soluble or insoluble organic or inorganic material at a speed and energy input which allows the carrier or diluent to melt or soften whereby it agglomerates, and breaking down the agglomerates to give controlled release particles.

Title: Method of employing angle images for measuring object motion in tagged magnetic resonance imaging
Inventor: PRINCE JERRY L
IPC: G01R33/563
Filed: 1999-08-09
Granted: 2002-01-03
Abstract: A method of measuring motion of an object by magnetic resonance imaging including applying a pulse sequence to spatially modulate a region of interest of said object. At least one spectral peak is acquired from the Fourier domain of the spatially modulated object. The inverse Fourier transform information of the acquired spectral peaks is computed. The angle images are computed from the spectral peak. The angle images employed to measure motion of the object. The method may employ a SPAMM pulse sequence as the pulse sequence. The angle images may be employed to compute directly and automatically, planar strain in two dimensions or a full strain tensor in three dimension. The data may be useful in detection and quantification of myocardial ischemia and infarction. The angle images may also be employed to generate data equivalent to planar tag data automatically and can be employed to generate any desired tag separations. The angle images may also be employed to compute displacement, synthesize tag patterns and compute optical flow without requiring the use of regularization.

Title: How to avoid contact between oxygen and molten metal
Inventor: HOHENBICHLER GERALD
IPC: B22D11/106
Filed: 1998-02-12
Granted: 2002-02-21
Abstract: Method of preventing contact of oxygen with a metal melt during continuous casting, the metal melt flows into a casting chamber bounded by rolls and a hood and leaves this chamber as a stream. To completely prevent contact of oxygen with the metal melt and thus reoxidation, oxygen attempting to enter via any gaps between the walls and/or adhering to the walls is removed by suction applied at a succession of suction stages at the periphery of each roll before a gap between the hood and the roll at the top of the casting chamber. Inert gas may then flow to the rolls near the gap.
