Patent AU-775985-B2 (AU)
Title: Interface patch clamping
Inventor: BYRNE NICHOLAS GERARD
IPC: C12Q1/02
Filed: 1999-12-06
Granted: 2004-08-19
Abstract: The invention provides a novel development of the conventional patch clamp technique for measurement of whole cell electrical activity. The invention provides for one or more cell or cells to be suspended in a liquid medium at a liquid/air interface (by virtue of the effect of surface tension at the interface) whereby the cell or cells are accessible at the interface to a microstructure electrode (such as a pipette tip) to which a cell can attach to form an electrical seal, for the purpose of whole cell voltage clamp recording. According to the invention the electrode can be caused to form a high resistance electrical seal with a cell suspended in the liquid at the liquid/air interface without the need to press the cell against a solid support surface. The invention also provides apparatus for carrying out the interface patch clamp technique and control logic for operating a computer to carry out the interface patch clamp technique.

Abstract: A yarn for use in a cement mortar matrix, includes a core (22) and a multitude of staple fibers (26) forming a layer which envelopes the core (22) and provides an extended surface area and interstical spaces for infiltration by cement fines and hydrates. The staple fibers (26) are spun around the core (22) and attached to the core (22) at spaced areas (30). The staple fibers (26) also have sufficient freedom of radial movement to provide the interstical spaces and permit ingress of cement fines and the formation of hydrates (28) in these spaces.

Title: Method for removing short-circuited sections of a solar cell
Inventor: HAYASHI KATSUHIKO
IPC: H01L31/18
Filed: 1999-06-28
Granted: 2003-07-17
Abstract: A method for removing short circuits in thin film solar cell elements during manufacturing by applying a pseudo-alternating voltage between the substrate side and the back electrodes of the solar cell elements. The waveform of the pseudo-alternating voltage may be a sinusoidal wave, a half-wave sinusoidal wave, a sawtooth wave, a square wave or the like. The peak voltage in the reverse direction is up to the reverse breakdown voltage of the solar cell element, and the waveform may either contain a small forward component or no forward component. The peak voltage in the reverse direction may also momentarily exceed the reverse breakdown voltage. The period of the pseudo-alternating voltage matches the time constant of the solar cell element determined by the capacity and reverse resistance of the solar cell element. The pseudo-alternating voltage induces an alternating current which discharges the accumulated charges in the solar cell element, thereby protecting it from high voltages generated by accumulated charges. Consequently, the method effectively removes short-circuits in the semiconductor layer without damaging non-short-circuited sections of the semiconductor layer.

Title: Prolonged preservation of blood platelets
Inventor: LIVESEY STEPHEN A
IPC: A61K35/19
Filed: 1995-10-19
Granted: 1999-12-23
Abstract: This invention provides a method for prolonging the preservation of human blood platelets at reduced temperatures. The method uses an inhibitor system that enables blood platelets to maintain their discoid shape and retain their functional integrity during storage. This is accomplished by interrupting normal platelet function during storage, so as to help keep platelets from activating and losing their shape. Before using the platelets in a transfusion, they are returned to their normal functional level by washing the inhibitor system away from the platelets.

Granted: 1998-07-30
Abstract: A hemostatic dental composition for controlling oral bleeding or providing gingival tissue fluid control, which includes a hemostatic agent, a chemical agent for reducing the acidic activity of the hemostatic agent, and an aqueous base. The composition can be used to stop bleeding or control gingival tissue fluid flow without opening up the dentinal tubules in the dentin of a tooth that has been cut during dental restorative and reconstructive procedures. The chemical agent is preferably an inorganic filler or high molecular weight polyol that reduces the acidic or other chemical activity of the hemostatic agent. This allows the smear layer plugs in the dentinal tubules to remain substantially intact to occlude passage of potentially harmful contaminants into the tubules and hence into the dental pulp.
