Abstract: Conventional organophilic clays, when used as rheological additives in oil based invert muds, display marked viscosity loses in the mud when these muds are heated much above 350 DEG  F, whereas muds prepared according to the present invention are dramatically more viscosity stable at temperatures through 500 DEG  F. The present invention relates to the discovery of oil based invert emulsion drilling fluids that provides more stable drilling fluid viscosity and anti-settling performance over varying temperatures when compared to conventional fluids containing organoclays. As a result, the inventive fluids of this invention are ideal candidates for high temperature applications. This invention in another aspect of this invention is a process for improving the rheological properties of oil well drilling fluids particularly useful for oil-based invert emulsion types of drilling fluids. The new process uses as a rheological viscosifer for such fluids as a specific organoclay which when added to a drilling fluid at from about 0.5 and 5% by weight creates an inventive drilling fluid composition less sensitive to the very hot temperatures found in the drilling hole, and in the long stem of drilling pipe.

Abstract: This invention provides methods for improved diagnosis of medically relevant conditions by solution based biochemical testing procedures performed in solutions of test samples. The invention provides a method to substitute the cell based morphological information contained within the cytological and/or histological data of the test sample by molecular information obtainable from the solution, wherein the original test sample is dissolved and thus enables for accurate and reproducible assessment of medically relevant diagnosis from dissolved test samples. The method according to the invention comprises the steps of determining the levels of one or more markers associated with the condition to be diagnosed, determining the level of a set of normalization markers suitable to substitute the information related to morphological aspects of the sample, that would have enabled or supported diagnosis in a cell based test system, comparing and/or combining the data concerning the levels of said markers and assessing diagnosis of a medically relevant condition.
