Patent AU-2416188-A (AU)
Title: Improved amphotericin b liposome preparation
IPC: A61K9/127
Filed: 1988-10-24
Abstract: A novel composition and method for solubilizing amphiphilic drugs in a small amount of organic solvent for use in improved liposomes is disclosed. A phosphatidylglycerol is acidified in a small amount of organic solvent. The amphiphilic drug, such as Amphotericin B, suspended in organic solvent is then added to the acidified phosphatidylycerol and a soluble complex is formed between the phosphatidylglycerol and the amphiphilic drug. When the liposome composition incorporating the soluble complex is hydrated, the final pH of the hydrating aqueous buffer is carefully controlled. The Amphotericin B liposomes formed have markedly reduced toxicity.

Title: Air classification of flour
IPC: B07B9/02
Filed: 1993-02-10
Abstract: Air-classification of flours with a particle size of 5-160  mu m is best performed on flours that are remilled at least once to give a remilled flour with an x-50 of less than 40  mu m. The remilling, preferably being carried out by using a jet air mill, a Retsch mill or an extruder. In this way a higher yield of a fraction, enriched in protein (up to 40% protein) and a higher yield of a starch fraction with a low protein content (even less than 3 wt %) can be obtained. Wetting of the remilled flour, prior to remilling and drying of the remilled flour, prior to air classification lead to improved results.

Title: Method of reproducibly making fiber optic coupler
Inventor: MILLER WILLIAM JAMES
IPC: C03B37/15
Filed: 1989-07-13
Abstract: A fiber optic coupler is formed by providing a glass tube having a longitudinal aperture (12) extending therethrough. Glass optical fibers (22, 24) each having a core, cladding and coating are disposed within the longitudinal aperture, the fibers extending beyond each end thereof. The coating is removed from that portion of the fibers in the midregion of the tube but remains on that portion of the fibers extending into the ends of the apertures. The coating can be removed prior to inserting the fibers into the tube, or it can be removed from that portion of the fibers in the midregion of the tube by oxidation, depolymerization or the like. The aperture is formed by a plurality of flattened walls, the dimensions and orientations of which are such that the cross-section of the aperture in the central region of the tube is symmetrical with respect to a plane passing through the longitudinal axis of the tube. At any cross-section of the aperture that is adjacent the coated regions of the fibers, each fiber coating contacts two walls of the aperture. The fibers are held taut to effect a tension therein, and the midregion of the tube is heated, collapsed about the fibers, and drawn to reduce the diameter thereof over a predetermined length.

Title: Methods and apparatus relating to the formulation and trading of risk management contracts
Inventor: SHEPHERD IAN KENNETH
IPC: G06F19/00
Filed: 1993-05-28
Abstract: Methods and apparatus which deal with the management of risk relating to specified, yet unknown, future events are disclosed. "Sponsor" stakeholders (12) specify a particular product relating to an event or phenomenon for which there is a range of possible future outcomes. "Ordering" stakeholders (13) then offer contracts relating to the predetermined phenomenon and corresponding range of outcomes. The offered contracts specify an entitlement (or pay-off) at the future time of maturity for each outcome, and a consideration (or premium) payable, in exchange, to a "counter-party" stakeholder (14). Independently of the offered contracts, the "counter-party" stakeholders (14) input data as to their view of the likelihood of occurrence of each outcome in the predetermined range into the future, or specifically at the predetermined date of maturity. Each offered contract is priced by the processing units (20) by calculating counter-party premiums from the registered data, and a match attempted by a comparison of the offered premium with the calculated premiums. Matched contracts can be further traded until maturity, and at-maturity processing handles the exchange of entitlement as between the matched parties to the contract.

Title: Heat exchanger manifold block with improved brazeability
Inventor: BALDANTONI ANTONIO
IPC: F28F1/16
Filed: 1999-04-28
Abstract: A method for enhancing the brazeability of a heat exchanger manifold block (110) by promoting the braze metal flow in and around the manifold block (110) during brazing within a braze furnace. The invention is particularly directed to enhancing a brazement between a manifold block (110) and a jumper tube (124) that fluidically connects the block (110) to another component of the heat exchanger system. The method entails increasing the rate of convective and radiative heat transfer to the block (110) during brazing within a braze furnace by providing fins (116, 128), grooves (118, 130) or similar features on one or more surfaces of the block (110) that increase the surface area of the block (110), and consequently increase the heating rate of the block (110) to something closer to that of the tube (124). In effect, the surface features increase the heat transfer rate of the block (110) to compensate for the disparate thermal masses of the block (110) and tube (124). The fins (116, 128) and grooves (118, 130) have been found to promote the flow of braze metal toward the block (110), which in turn has been found to promote the quality of the resulting brazement between the block (110) and tube (124).
