Patent CA-2507234-C (CA)
Inventor: RUMSBY PHILIP THOMAS
IPC: B23K26/382

Granted: 2009-12-22
Abstract: A nozzle in a nozzle plate for an inkjet printhead is formed by directing a laser beam at a nozzle plate. Accurate control of the divergence of the beam is achieved by splitting the beam into sub-beams, each sub-beam having divergence with an origin lying apart from the point at which the beam is created by splitting, and thereafter recombining the sub-beams. Greater accuracy in the taper and inlet shape of the manufactured nozzle is thereby obtained.

Title: Method of using adipose tissue-derived cells in the treatment of cardiovascular conditions
Inventor: FRASER JOHN K
IPC: C12N5/0775
Filed: 2004-02-20
Granted: 2012-07-10
Abstract: Cells present in processed lipoaspirate tissue are used to treat patients, including patients with cardiovascular conditions, diseases or disorders. Methods of treating patients include processing adipose tissue to deliver a concentrated amount of stem cells obtained from the adipose tissue to a patient. The methods may be practiced in a closed system so that the stem cells are not exposed to an external environment prior to being administered to a patient. Accordingly, in a preferred method, cells present in processed lipoaspirate are placed directly into a recipient along with such additives necessary to promote, engender or support a therapeutic cardiovascular benefit.

Patent CA-2539899-C (CA)
Inventor: SMITH RICHARD D
IPC: H01J49/06

Granted: 2012-08-07
Abstract: La présente invention a trait à un procédé et un appareil permettant une sensibilité accrue dans des instruments de spectrométrie de mobilité ionique/spectrométrie de masse qui réduit sensiblement ou élimine la perte d'ions dans les tubes de glissement de spectromètre de mobilité ionique au moyen d'un dispositif pour la transmission d'ions depuis une source d'ions qui permet la transmission d'ions sans retard important vers un entonnoir d'ions électrodynamique en forme de sablier à l'entrée du tube de glissement et/ou un entonnoir d'ions interne à la sortie du tube de glissement. Un entonnoir électrodynamique en forme de sablier est constitué d'au moins un élément d'entrée, d'un élément central, et d'un élément de sortie, dans lequel l'ouverture de l'élément central est inférieur à l'ouverture de l'élément d'entrée et à l'ouverture des éléments de sortie. Des ions générés dans une zone de pression relativement haute par une source d'ions à l'extérieur de l'entonnoir électrodynamique en forme de sablier sont transmis à une zone de pression relativement basse à l'entrée de l'entonnoir en forme de sablier à travers un orifice de limitation de conductance. Des potentiels électriques continu et alternatif sont appliqués aux éléments de l'entonnoir électrodynamique en forme de sablier aspirant ainsi les ions dans et à travers l'entonnoir électrodynamique en forme de sablier permettant ainsi l'introduction de quantités relativement grandes d'ions dans le tube de glissement tout en maintenant la différence de la pression de gaz et de la composition à l'intérieur du tube de glissement par rapport à celles au niveau de l'entrée de l'entonnoir électrodynamique et permettant le maintien d'une pression de gaz positive à la sortie dudit tube de glissement, le cas échéant. Un entonnoir d'ions interne est prévu au sein dudit tube de glissement et est positionné à la sortie dudit tube de glissement. L'avantage procuré par l'entonnoir d'ions interne est que les ions sont dispersés en éloignement de l'ouverture de sortie au sein du tube de glissement, de sorte que ceux qui sont normalement perdus dans des tubes de glissement classiques à toute analyse ou mesure ultérieure, sont plutôt orientés à travers la sortie dudit tube de glissement, accroissant considérablement la quantité d'ions présents dans le tube de glissement.
