Title: Methods for bonding structurally dissimilar optical discs
Inventor: MUELLER WILLIAM R
IPC: B29C65/14
Filed: 1997-10-10
Abstract: Methods for bonding structurally asymmetrical or otherwise structurally dissimilar optical discs are provided. A bonded optical disc stack is formed from a first and a second optical disc by coating the back side of at least one of the optical discs with a light-curable bonding material and stacking the first and second optical discs back to back. The front side of the second optical disc is exposed to light for a first predetermined time period. The front sides of both the first and second optical discs are then exposed to light for a second predetermined time period. Finally, the front side of the first optical disc is exposed to light for a third predetermined time period. In this manner, when the second optical disc comprises program information and the first optical disc comprises a graphical image or other artwork, image pass-through due to simultaneous exposure and disc warpage due to one-sided exposure are significantly reduced.

Patent AU-4444999-A (AU)
Title: Method for carrying out an immunoassay in a multiphase system
Inventor: NEUENHOFER STEPHAN
IPC: G01N33/577
Filed: 1999-08-13
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of carrying out an immunoassay in a multiphase system. A sample containing an analyte is brought into contact with a receptor A and a tracer. The analyte can either form a complex with the tracer, or counteract the formation of a complex of receptor A and tracer by competing with the tracer for binding to receptor A, or counteract the formation of a complex of receptor A and tracer by competing with receptor A. Receptor B is added and the signal is determined. In this method, receptor A and receptor B are suitably immobilized, ensuring that the tracer either cannot enter into any binding involving the simultaneous participation of receptors A and B or can enter into such a binding to only such a slight extent that it is nevertheless possible to detect and differentiate differing analyte concentrations.

Patent AU-4741797-A (AU)
Title: Multiplex polynucleotide capture methods and compositions
Inventor: O'NEILL ROGER A
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1997-10-02
Abstract: The invention relates to methods and compositions for simultaneously generating a plurality of polynucleotide sequencing ladders or PCR amplification products. Each sequencing ladder is generated from a recoverable primer, i.e., an oligonucleotide primer comprising a recovery tag. The recovery tag may be an oligonucleotide. Each sequencing ladder has a unique recovery tag. After the generation of the multiple sequencing ladders, the different sequencing ladders are separated from one another, i.e., purified, by binding to recovery tag binding compounds that have been immobilized on one or more solid supports. The recovery tag binding compounds are immobilized on the solid support in an addressable manner, i.e., the recovery tag binding compounds have distinct locations on the solid support. The binding of the sequencing ladders to the recovery tag binding compounds serves to separate the different polynucleotide sequencing ladders present in a given solution. The separated sequencing ladders may then be released from the immobilized recovery tag binding compounds and subsequently resolved into individual components of the sequencing ladders or PCR products. The subject methods of separating sequencing ladders simultaneously generated in the same vessel may readily be adapted to separate a plurality of simultaneously generated polynucleotide amplification products. Other aspects of the invention are kits for the generation or recovery of a plurality of polynucleotide sequencing ladders or amplification products. The kits comprise a plurality of recoverable primers having unique recovery tags. Preferably, the recovery tags are polynucleotides that have substantially the same denaturation temperature when bound to appropriate recovery tag binding compounds, i.e., the primers comprise an integrated set. The kits may further comprise recovery tag binding compounds. The kits may further comprise labeled chain terminators. Other aspects of the invention include polynucleotide recovery devices.

Patent AU-5847890-A (AU)
Title: Process for producing pressed, moulded, delayed release dose units and dose units thus produced
Inventor: STEMMLE BERTHOLD
IPC: A61K9/20
Filed: 1990-07-02
Abstract: Process for the preparation of shaped, compressed controlled-release unit-dosage forms from a therapeutic active substance exhibiting a self-retarding release that depends on the magnitude of the force used for the compression. The process gives unit-dosage forms for which the release of the active substance is highly uniform, reproducibly identical and largely linear. To achieve this, the active substance and an additive charge that inhibits or compensates for the self-retardation of its release are processed into particles in the first stage of production, so that the preliminary compressed objects made from these particles without any further additives exhibit a rapid release (in comparison with the required controlled release) over the range of the force of compression envisaged for the production of the unit-dosage form in question, after which the particles are compressed in the second stage of production with a release-retarding agent to obtain the unit-dosage forms. The invention also relates to the unit-dosage forms thus obtained.

Patent AU-6045790-A (AU)
Title: Improved octane measuring process and device
Inventor: MAGGARD STEVEN M
IPC: G01N21/35
Filed: 1990-07-20
Abstract: The near infrared absorbance of the methyne band measures octane (pump, RON, and MON) with excellent correlation and can be used for gasoline blending. The absorbance may be measured as the first, second, third, fourth or higher derivative or by other signal processing techniques. The signal can be used to control a multi-component gasoline blending system to produce a preset desired octane. Such continuous or frequent measurement of octane (research octane number, RON; motor octane number, MON; and pump octane number (research plus motor times 0.5)) permits constant or frequent optimization of gasoline blending to produce a target octane which is sufficient to meet motorists' needs, yet uses minimum amounts of the more expensive high octane blending stocks.

Patent AU-6617800-A (AU)
Title: Process for irradiation producing constant depth/dose profile
Inventor: JOEHNK EDWARD J
IPC: G21K5/04
Filed: 2000-08-01
Abstract: Irradiation of a target material disposed around a reel rotated about an axis perpendicular to the sweep of a beam of radiation produces a linear relationship between the depth into the target material and the radiation dose received. Where the core of the reel is sufficiently transparent to the radiation beam, target material located on the backside of the reel is also irradiated, creating a constant relationship between depth into the target material and the radiation dose received. The depth/dose profile can be tuned to a constant value by varying parameters of the irradiation process, such as target material thickness, target material density, reel diameter, and energy of the applied beam of radiation.

Title: Process and composition for treating aluminium
Inventor: AWAD SAMI B
IPC: C10M105/22
Filed: 1991-03-06
Abstract: Contact of acid or alkaline cleaned aluminum surfaces, particularly cans, with a water based composition containing a combination of (i) alkoxylated phosphate esters, (ii) ions of aluminum, zirconium, iron, tin, and/or cerium, (iii) a metal etching component, and (iv) a combination of alkoxylated alcohol and alkoxylated alkyl phenol emulsifiers, gives the surface after drying lowered surface friction without loss of high quality printability and lacquer adhesion and removes any brown spotting on the cans that may have developed during the cleaning or post-cleaning rinses. The cans after treatment are substantially free from any water breaks when rinsed with water. The foaming resistance and storage stability of the water based composition as described above, and of other similar surface friction reducing treatments for aluminum containers, may be advantageously increased by adding a biocidal agent, preferably hydrogen peroxide, and a combination of liquid paraffin, solid wax, and a high molecular weight fatty acid derivative(s) as antifoam agent.
