Title: Continuous aqueous process for the isolation of hemicellulose from corn hulls and other plant hulls
Inventor: MCPHERSON ROGER E
IPC: A23L19/12
Filed: 2005-08-04
Abstract: Various methods of obtaining hemicellulose from plant sources are provided. In one embodiment, hemicellulose is obtained from plant hulls by first jet cooking a plant hull slurry to remove starch from the plant hulls, and subsequently jet cooking the destarched plant hull slurry to extract a solubilzed hemicellulose. In an alternative embodiment, hemicellulose may be obtained by forming a plant hull slurry, adding sufficient lime to enable starch gelatinization and separation of hemicellulose in a single jet cooking step, jet cooking the slurry, and separating solubilized hemicellulose from insolubles. Surprisingly, the yield of hemicellulose is high, and the starch from the plant hulls will gelatinize but will not become hydrolyzed, such that the formation of reducing sugars is substantially avoided.

Patent CA-2594269-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GIVENS RAYMOND D
IPC: B66D3/18
Filed: 2007-07-10
Abstract: A load balancing pneumatic manipulator comprising an inflatable reservoir for establishing via an amplifier a pressure within a lift cylinder that is sufficient to balance the weight of an object being lifted. The reservoir is inflated and deflated by inflation and deflation valves, respectively, that may be operated from an operator control center proximal an end effector of the manipulator. The valves may be actuated via pushbuttons or actuated in a mutually exclusively fashion via a neutrally biased reciprocating actuator.  The manipulator advantageously allows loads of different weights to be lifted in a semi-automatic fashion with operator involvement to select the load balancing pressure. The manipulator further comprises an air release system that closes a blocking valve in the event of release of the object being lifted and optionally in the event of a loss of air supply pressure. The pressure within the lift cylinder is thereby preserved and can be vented at different rates, depending upon the condition causing closure of the blocking valve.

Abstract: A surgical pause is a well intentioned pre-surgery procedure designed to reduce the likelihood that a patient may undergo an incorrect surgical procedure.  However, the problem is that a surgical pause is often not taken as seriously as it should be and the surgical pause is performed in an ad hoc manner. Moreover, given the way in which the surgical pause is carried out, there is no way to enforce compliance with the spirit of the surgical pause and/or to check after the surgery that the surgical pause was performed with the requisite care and diligence by the health-care professionals in the operating theater. Many of the mistakes made in an operating theater can be attributed to not having a more systematic method for performing a surgical pause before a surgical procedure begins. In accordance with aspects of the invention apparatus, systems and methods are provided that may enable compliance to the intended spirit of the surgical pause and provide a record that a surgical pause was performed with the requisite care and diligence by the operating-room staff.

Title: Occlusion instrument for closing a cardiac auricle and a method for producing such an occlusion instrument
Inventor: KLEBON SUSANN
IPC: A61B17/12
Filed: 2005-11-11
Abstract: The present invention relates to a self-expandable occlusion instrument (1) for closing a cardiac auricle in a patient~s heart, and to a method for producing such an instrument. The occlusion instrument (1) is composed of a lattice (10) of thin wires or filaments which is given a suitable shape by means of a forming and heat treatment process.
