Patent AU-2015350987-B2 (AU)
Title: Heat pump
Inventor: OKUDA NORIHIRO
IPC: F25B43/00
Filed: 2015-11-18
Granted: 2019-07-11
Abstract: In this heat pump, a gas-side shutoff valve on a gas refrigerant side and a liquid-side shutoff valve on a liquid refrigerant side are provided within the package of an outdoor unit. A gas-side filter on the gas refrigerant side is installed more toward an indoor unit side than the gas-side shutoff valve within the package of the outdoor unit. A liquid-side filter 9 on the liquid refrigerant side is installed more toward the indoor unit side than the liquid-side shutoff valve within the package of the outdoor unit. As a result, there is no need to maintain an installation location for the gas-side filter and the liquid-side filter during on-site installation, thus making it possible to improve installation properties.

Title: Method and device for feedback control of neural stimulation
Inventor: SINGLE PETER SCOTT VALLACK
IPC: A61N1/08
Filed: 2015-12-11
Granted: 2020-11-26
Abstract: A method of controlling a neural stimulus by use of feedback. The neural stimulus is applied to a neural pathway in order to give rise to an evoked action potential on the neural pathway. The stimulus is defined by at least one stimulus parameter. A neural compound action potential response evoked by the stimulus is measured. From the measured evoked response a feedback variable is derived. A feedback loop is completed by using the feedback variable to control the at least one stimulus parameter value. The feedback loop adaptively compensates for changes in a gain of the feedback loop caused by electrode movement relative to the neural pathway.

Patent AU-2016268130-B2 (AU)
Title: Systems and methods for repairing soft tissues
Inventor: NASON KEVIN S
IPC: A61L27/26
Filed: 2016-05-21
Granted: 2019-10-03
Abstract: A wicking component is integrated into an arthroscopically deployable bone anchor, and is intended to improve soft tissue-to-bone repair. Once deployed, the fibrous wick component extends from within the bone tunnel, out of the hole, and to the bone-tendon interface on the bone surface. The tissue is approximated against the bone, sandwiching the wick material between the bone and tissue. The wick component is ideally a polymeric fibrous or tissue-based scaffold that provides a pathway for cells (autologous bone marrow constituents and blood) to travel from within the bone to the soft tissue-bone interface, accelerating and promoting the healing response. The system provides a biomimetic structure that stimulates the extracellular matrix to encourage cell attachment and potentially improve the healing response. The wick component does not need to be integrated into a suture anchor and installed when the suture anchor is deployed. For example, the wick component could be placed above or near a traditional suture anchor after it has been deployed.

Title: Non-invasive determination of methylome of fetus or tumor from plasma
Inventor: CHAN KWAN CHEE
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2017-10-27
Granted: 2019-10-10
Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses can determine and use methylation profiles of various tissues and samples. Examples are provided. A methylation profile can be deduced for fetal/tumor tissue based on a comparison of plasma methylation (or other sample with cell-free DNA) to a methylation profile of the mother/patient. A methylation profile can be determined for fetal/tumor tissue using tissue-specific alleles to identify DNA from the fetus/tumor when the sample has a mixture of DNA. A methylation profile can be used to determine copy number variations in genome of a fetus/tumor. Methylation markers for a fetus have been identified via various techniques. The methylation profile can be determined by determining a size parameter of a size distribution of DNA fragments, where reference values for the size parameter can be used to determine methylation levels. Additionally, a methylation level can be used to determine a level of cancer. 9589128_1 (GHMatters) P94865.AU.1

Title: Buoyant turret mooring with porous turret cage
Inventor: CARRICO TODD VINCENT
IPC: B63B35/44
Filed: 2018-08-21
Granted: 2019-11-07
Abstract: A disconnectable buoyant turret mooring system for an FPSO is vulnerable to damage from collisions between the buoy and the buoy turret cage during mating and de-mating operations. It is therefore desirable that the buoy separate quickly from the turret of the FPSO vessel during a disconnect operation. A buoy turret cage is provided with a certain degree of porosity that allows a flow of seawater from the outside of the receptor to the inner surface of the receptor. Introducing water in this way relieves the suction forces and allows for a quicker separation of the buoy from the turret of the FPSO vessel, minimizing the time during which an uncontrolled collision between the buoy and the FPSO vessel is most likely. Filling a portion of the turret above the mooring buoy with water prior to releasing the buoy also decreases the separation time.

functionalization with a cargo-bearing reagent by means of reaction with a primary 
amino group or by means of click chemistry with an alkyne group of the unnatural 
nucleobase linker.
