Patent AU-5774896-A (AU)
Title: Filtration and culture methods and apparatus
Inventor: PARTON ADRIAN
IPC: C12M1/26
Filed: 1996-05-23
Abstract: A method and apparatus for filtering microorganisms from a sample and culturing the microorganisms employs a membrane filter (30) in a filter holder (10) in which holder the membrane filter is supported on an absorbent support (26) which is maintained in an expansible compressed state against the membrane filter so that any expansion of the membrane filter when wetted by a sample does not cause bubbling of the membrane filter away from its support entrapping air bubbles and so preventing supply of nutrient from culture medium supplied to the support from reaching the microorganisms on the membrane filter.

Title: Waxy barley products
IPC: C12P19/22
Filed: 1980-05-21
Abstract: The invention relates to processing of barley grain by a series of sequential steps to produce a carbohydrate syrup having a high maltose content, novel protein products, a gluten-like product, a carbohydrate gum, all useful in the food industry, and a fermentable product which can be converted to alcohol. The processing steps comprise:
 (a) forming a starch slurry and adding an enzyme in sufficient amount to promote starch conversion;
 (b) heating the resulting mixture at a temperature of below about 76 DEG  C for a sufficient period for the starch to dissolve and form a solution;
 (c) cooling the solution, adding an additional amount of enzyme and agitating for a sufficient time for the conversion of starch to take place; and
 (d) heating the resulting mixture to complete starch conversion, and separating solids comprising proteins and a liquid portion comprising a maltose syrup.

Title: A method and an apparatus for separating bodies from a liquid
Inventor: HOLMBERG GLENN L
IPC: B01D33/03
Filed: 1986-05-20
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for separating bodies from a liquid in which the liquid is passed through a filter and the bodies to be separated are accumulated on the filter. The filter forms an upper bounding limit of a space therebeneath which is alternately subjected to pressure and vacuum relative to the ambient region above the filter. This is achieved according to one embodiment by producing a reciprocal movement of the filter in the form of an oscillating or pendular movement. The pressurization in the space produces separation of the bodies accumulated on the upper surface of the filter to facilitate their discharge from the filter. The separated bodies can be assisted for discharge by mechanical elements and/or by producing wave motion in the liquid.

Title: High flux semipermeable membranes
Inventor: CHAU MICHAEL M
IPC: B01D71/48
Filed: 1990-07-18
Abstract: High flux semipermeable membranes which comprise a polymerized reaction product within and/or on a porous support may be prepared by contacting the porous support such as a polysulfone sheet with an aqueous solution of an polyamine, said aqueous solution containing a polar aprotic solvent not reactive with amines and optionally an acid acceptor. The surface of the coated support is dried to the touch and then contacted with an organic solution of an polycarboxylic acid halide for a period of time sufficient to form a polymerized reaction product within and/or on the surface of the support material. The resulting composite may be post treated by washing with an alkaline compound. The resultant membrane composite may be used in separation processes such as the desalination of brackish or seawater, or the softening of domestic hard water.

Title: Thermally insulated microwave cooking container
Inventor: CLARKE KEVIN WILLIAM JOSEPH
IPC: B65D81/34
Filed: 1999-10-07
Abstract: A container comprising an inner thermoformed vessel (1) and an outer thermoformed vessel (2), arranged the one within the other. The side walls (9) of the outer forming (2) surround the side walls (10) of the inner forming (1). The outer side walls has inwardly projecting ribs (11), which abut the inner side walls (10) to maintain an air gap (12) between the formings, with the formings being centered with respect to each other. The air gap is present between the bases (13, 14) of the inner and outer formings, with the outer forming being provided with ribs in its base also. In use food in the container can be heated in a micro-wave oven until hot. The air gap separates a handler's fingers from direct thermal contact with the hot food so that the container remains comfortable to handle.
Patent AU-6234698-A (AU)
Title: Optical fiber amplifier having variable gain
Inventor: BONNEDAL DAG
IPC: H04B10/291
Filed: 1998-02-13
Abstract: An optical amplifier device intended for WDM light signals comprises a preamplifier (3) and a power amplifier (11) of the optical fiber amplifier type, which are connected in series and have gain curves dependent on the wavelength. A controllable attenuator (5) is connected between the amplifiers (3 and 11) and is controlled by a control device (7). The signal input to the preamplifier (3) has a low power and is amplified to provide an output signal where the signals of the input channels have been amplified with different gains. The input signal of the power amplifier (11) then has a larger power resulting in a gain characteristic different from that of the preamplifier (3). By adapting the attenuation of the attenuator (5) for variations in the input signal the gain characteristic of the power amplifier (11) can be set so that the signal output from the amplifier device has a spectral dependence that is the same as the original spectral dependence obtained without variations. Also, the same spectral dependence can be maintained when the pump light power of the power amplifier is changed and then the total amplifier gain is changed, by adapting the attenuation of the attenuator (5) so that the gain of the power amplifier is not changed. In the amplifier the lower possible noise from the preamplifier stage is added to the input signal and the full output power is always available from the power amplifier. If the input signal is e.g. increased the SNR of the signals passing through the amplifier is correspondingly improved. This improves the performance of an optical network in which the amplifier is used.

Title: Methods for preventing progressive tissue necrosis, reperfusion injury, bacterial translocation and adult respiratory distress syndrome
Inventor: DAYNES RAYMOND A
IPC: A61K31/565
Filed: 1994-03-08
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/US94/02558 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 9, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 9, 1994 PCT Filed Mar. 8, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO94/20111 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 15, 1994.The present invention is directed to a method for preventing or reducing ischemia following injury, such as reperfusion injury following ischemia, cellular damage associated with ischemic episodes, such as infarctions or traumatic injuries, and thus to prevent or reduce the consequent progressive necrosis of tissue associated with such ischemia. This effect is achieved by administering DHEA or DHEA derivatives to a patient as soon as possible after the injury. The present invention is further directed to methods for preventing or reducing bacterial translocation or adult respiratory distress syndrome in a patient. Similarly, bacterial translocation and adult respiratory distress syndrome are prevented or reduced by administering DHEA or DHEA derivatives to a patient. Suitable derivatives of DHEA include, among others, 16 alpha -bromo-DHEA, androstenediol and derivatives which have side chains at the 4' and/or 7' positions, which do not destroy the native activity of DHEA but which are capable of inhibiting sulfotransferase to prevent the conversion of DHEA to DHEA-S.

Patent AU-6615994-A (AU)
Title: Recovery of organic acid salts from impure process streams by addition of bases
Inventor: FELMAN STEVEN W
IPC: A23L27/00
Filed: 1994-07-04
Abstract: This invention provides an improved method for recovering an organic acid as a salt from various process streams by addition of a crystallizing base to a concentrated solution of neutralized organic acid. The addition of such a base causes crystallization of the salt. This process provides more efficient recovery of organic acid salt from a fermentation process stream than traditional crystallization and it may be used essentially as a one step purification process. The improved method is particularly applicable to the recovery of trisodium or tripotassium citrate from process streams produced in the fermentation and recovery of citric acid, with the addition of a crystallizing base such as sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium hydroxide, or ammonia. The resulting product may be combined with an anticaking agent and/or dried to provide a particularly free flowing product.
