IPC: A61B17/32
Filed: 2000-06-02
Abstract: A stapling device for use as an attachment to an electromechanical device driver comprises an upper jaw and a lower jaw, the upper jaw having staple guides corresponding to one or more staples in a removable staple tray disposed within a lower jaw, whereby a wedge having a threaded bore travels upon a matching threaded shaft in a channel disposed in the lower jaw behind the staple tray, such that rotation of the threaded shaft causes movement of the wedge through the channel while a sloped surface of the wedge contacts the staples to push the staples against the staples guides, closing the staples.

Title: Alpha2,8/2,9 polysialyltransferase
Inventor: WONG CHI-HUEY
IPC: C12P19/18
Filed: 1999-08-10
Abstract: The capsular polysaccharide of Escherichia coli K92 contains alternating (-8-NeuAc alpha 2-) and (-9-NeuAc alpha 2-) linkages. The enzyme catalyzing this polymerizing reaction has been cloned from the genomic DNA of E. coli K92. The 1.2 kb PCR<1> fragment was subcloned in pRSET vector and the protein was expressed in the BL21(DE3) strain of E. coli with a hexameric histidine at its N-terminal end. The enzyme was isolated in the supernatant after lysis of the cells and fractionated by ultracentrifugation. Western blotting using anti-histidine antibody showed the presence of a band that migrated at about 47.5 kD on both reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE, indicating a monomeric enzyme. Among the carbohydrate acceptors tested, N-acetylneuraminic acid and the gangliosides GD3 and GQ1b were preferred substrates. The cell-free enzyme reaction products obtained were characterized by NMR and mass spectrometry, which indicated the presence of both  alpha 2,9- and  alpha 2,8-linked polysialyl structure. The K92 neuS gene was used to transform the K1 strain of E. coli, the capsule of which contains only (-8-NeuAc alpha 2-) linkages. Analysis of the polysaccharides isolated from these transformed cells is consistent with the presence of both (-8-NeuAc alpha 2-) and (-9-NeuAc alpha 2-) linkages. It is disclosed that the neuS gene product of E. coli K92 catalyzes the synthesis of polysialic acid with  alpha 2,9- and  alpha 2,8- linkages in vitro and in vivo.

Title: Method of forming a terminal pip protrusion on the casing of an alkaline cell
Inventor: GARDNER WILLIAM H
IPC: H01M50/559
Filed: 1999-08-24
Abstract: The invention is directed to a method of forming a pip protrusion at the closed end of a cylindrical casing of an electrochemical cell. The cell is preferably an alkaline cell having an anode comprising zinc, a cathode comprising manganese dioxide, and an alkaline electrolyte. The method of the invention is directed to forming the pip protrusion at the closed end of the casing so that the pip protrusion becomes an integral part of the casing. In an alkaline cell the pip protrusion becomes the cell's positive terminal. The method of the invention involves inserting cathode material into the casing through the open end thereof and then forcing an elongated plunger having a diameter less than the inside diameter of casing into the cathode material while providing means for preventing the cathode material form rising more than a predetermined level with the casing. The force of the plunger causes the cathode material to become compacted while simultaneously causing a pip protrusion to form at the closed end of the casing.

Patent AU-6418590-A (AU)
Title: Multi-wavelength pyrometer
Inventor: RONCHI CLAUDIO
IPC: G01J5/60
Filed: 1990-09-24
Abstract: The invention concerns a multi-wavelength pyrometer for the measurement of the temperature and emissivity of a surface above 900 K. The pyrometer has several radiation detectors sensitive in different wavebands  lambda 1...  lambda i...  lambda n as well as a data processor to which the detector outputs are fed after digitalization and which calculates the temperature of the surface from these detector outputs using Wien-Planck's law, assuming the surface is a perfect black body. The emissivity is then calculated, as a function of the temperature and the wavelength, from these calculated temperature values using an approximation method, and from this, the required temperature. The invention calls for the differences between the actual pyrometer signals and the signals which would be expected from the assumed emissivity and the temperature calculated from this emissivity to be determined for various approximations and various wavelengths. The approximation which gives, for all the wavelengths, the least sum of the squares of these differences is then selected.

Title: Nanostructure coatings
Inventor: HUNT ANDREW TYE
IPC: C23C16/01
Filed: 2000-08-17
Abstract: A thin film product having a nanostructured surface, a laminate product including the thin film and a temporary substrate opposite the nanostructured surface, a laminate product including the thin film and a final substrate attached to the nanostructured surface and a method of producing the thin film products. The thin film is particularly useful in the electronics industry for the production of integrated circuits, printed circuit boards and EMF shielding. The nanostructured surface includes surface features that are mostly smaller than one micron, while the dense portion of the thin film is between 10-1000 nm. The thin film is produced by coating a temporary substrate (such as aluminum foil) with a coating material (such as copper) using any process. One such method is concentrated heat deposition or a combustion, chemical vapor deposition process. The resulting thin film provides a high level of adhesion to a final substrate, by embedding the nanostructures with the material of the final substrate (such as an epoxy resin). The surface of the thin film adjacent the temporary substrate substantially conforms to the substrate surface and has a relatively low peel strength. In this manner, the temporary substrate is easily removed from the thin film after attaching the opposite nanostructured side of the thin film to the final substrate with a resulting, higher peel strength.

Title: Administering a gravity segregation dispersion by continuous infusion
Inventor: OMTVEIT TORE
IPC: A61M5/145
Filed: 2000-08-25
Abstract: Method and apparatus for continuous infusion to a subject of dispersions in which the dispersed phase is susceptible to flotation or sedimentation. The dispersion is controllably delivered from an upper or lower extremity of an essentially vertically positioned delivery vessel, e.g. syringe 2, and is then admixed with flushing medium, e.g. from infusion minibag 8, prior to administration to the subject. Vertical positioning of the delivery device maximises the distance through which flotation or sedimentation may occur, thereby substantially reducing the effects of separation over a given period of time compared to use of a corresponding horizontal delivery vessel such as a syringe placed in a conventional syringe driver.
