Abstract: The invention provides a dual lumen catheter (20) comprising outer and inner tube materials (28, 30). A main portion (22) extends axially and has a selected first cross section and includes main portions of the respective outer and inner tube materials which together define an annular intake lumen (32) and a main part of a return lumen (34) contained inside the intake lumen. A transition portion (67) is made up integrally of both the outer and inner tube materials and has a second cross section smaller than the first cross section. The transition portion extends axially from the distal end of the main portion and this can be extended to include a tip portion (65) made up only of outer tube material and which extends axially from the transition portion.

Patent CA-2158759-A1 (CA)
Title: An artificial soil made from recycled materials
Inventor: ADAM PAUL THOMAS
IPC: C05D9/00
Filed: 1994-02-01
Abstract: To make an artificial chernozem topsoil combine approximately fifty percent dredged river silt and fifty percent cellulose from recycled paper with ten percent composted animal or human waste for general reclamation and cereal crops, or vegetable or fruit residuals for gardens or potting soil, and then add five percent calcium in the form of calcium silicate as slag or lime and .1 percent ammonia nitrate or sulfate mixed with water, and then add charcoal until the moisture turns black. This combination of material replicates the calcium base, decaying cellulose, silt and animal or vegetable waste structure of natural chernozem. Magnesium, sodium, potassium, and phosphorus, the peculiar trace elements of a chernozem are contained in waste residuals and silt. Other soil types can be duplicated by adjusting the base content to sand or basalt and rearranging the nutrient and mineral content to match the local sail profile, and then adding seeds appropriate to yield the area's naturally occurring foliage. The above mentioned elements may be combined on a conveyor system at a factory located near major rivets or silt deposits or volcanic sites. The artificial soil can then be barged or trucked back to restore dead fields and eroded hillsides helping to prevent deforestoration and desetertification. Artificial soils of different types would be useful as potting soil, in greenhouses, gardens and in creating artificial environments in space.

Title: Method of filling and insert for a container
Inventor: WRIGHT TIMOTHY
IPC: B65D79/00
Filed: 1994-06-17
Abstract: An insert (10, 12) for use in providing a creamy head on a carbonated beverage dispensed from a beverage container (50) comprises a restricted orifice (20) for providing communication between its inside and outside, and a pressurised gas contained inside. The restricted orifice (20) is separated from the pressurised gas by a closure (22) which is arranged to be permanently and irreversibly opened on being subjected to a temperature above a predetermined threshold, or on being subjected to a pressure difference in which the pressure outside the insert (10, 12) exceeds that within. This enables the insert to be pre-pressurised and completely closed and stable during insertion into the container (50) and during filling. Then the closure (22) is permanently and irreversibly opened during a subsequent pasteurisation step to ensure that all of the gas is vented from the insert (10, 12) on opening the container (50).

Patent CA-2164344-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LECH STANLEY
IPC: A61K9/28
Filed: 1994-05-11
Abstract: A method for coating pharmaceutical tablets is disclosed in which polymeric coating ingredients an combined with saccharides in a melt spinning operation to form composite particulates. The particulates are then dispersed in water to form an aqueous polymer coating solution, followed by application to pharmaceutical tablets by such methods as spray coating. The particulates dissolve extremely rapidly in water to form a dispersion of the polymer coating ingredients. Such rapid dissolution allows for increased processing rates and avoids disadvantages of the prior art such as the requirement of high shear rate mixing for long times.

Patent CA-2168415-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MACHIDA YUTAKA
IPC: H04N19/85
Filed: 1996-01-30
Abstract: A method for encoding and decoding digital moving picture signals which can decode subframes appropriately in relation to time if a part of a bit stream is missing or an error occurs in the bit stream, and can suppress degradation of a reproduced picture if decoding of a subframe including a picture in motion in relation to time becomes unfeasible.          In the method for encoding and decoding digital moving picture signals of this invention, information for one frame is encoded correspondingly to a spatial hierarchy of a frame, subframes and blocks.  A subframe time position number and a subframe space number are attached to an identifier of each of the subframe, thereby resuming appropriate decoding of the subframes immediately after a trouble if an error occurs.  The subframe identifiers are placed at  a certain interval in the bit stream so as to give a smaller size to a subframe including a block which is in motion and difficult to be encoded, thereby suppressing degradation of a reproduced picture if decoding of the subframe becomes unfeasible.

Title: Crosslinkable creping adhesive formulations
Inventor: LUU PHUONG VAN
IPC: D21H17/07
Filed: 1996-05-17
Abstract: Disclosed are adhesive formulations as creping process aids for producing an absorbent creped cellulosic sheet having a high level of surface-perceived softness that comprises continuously forming a web of cellulosic papermaking fibers, adhering said web to a thermal drying means by means of adhesive compositions comprising polymers having at least one primary or secondary amine group in the backbone such as chitosan, polyvinylamine, polyvinyl alcohol-vinyl amine and polyaminoamide in combination with crosslinking agents such as dialdehydes or zirconium compounds having a valence of plus four including ammonium zirconium carbonate, zirconium acetylacetonate, zirconium acetate, zirconium carbonate, zirconium sulfate, zirconium phosphate, potassium zirconium carbonate, zirconium sodium phosphate and sodium zirconium tartate and creping said treated web from said thermal drying means. In the method for producing the absorbent creped cellulosic sheets, the zirconium crosslinking agent is advantageously applied directly and separately on the Yankee dryer at the time the base polymer is applied to the surface. Alternatively, when using dialdehydes, the dialdehydes are mixed with the base polymer just prior to application to the Yankee dryer surface without having the crosslinking reaction take place with the base polymer prior to reaching the heated Yankee surface. These sheets are useful in the manufacture of tissue and towel.
