Granted: 2010-07-06
Abstract: Apparatus for and a method of rotating microscopic objects uses a beam of electromagnetic radiation. A microscopic, non-circularly symmetric distribution of electro-magnetic radiation is projected on to a region containing an object to be rotated so as to cause photons in the beam to refract around the objects. Rotating means then rotate that distribution and so rotate the objects. The distribution may be formed on the interference pattern between a beam having a Laguerre-Gaussian wave fronts and either a plane wave or a further Laguerre-Gaussian beam of opposite helicity.

Title: Dermabrasion device
Inventor: BERNAZ GABRIEL
IPC: A61B17/54
Filed: 2001-12-24
Granted: 2011-09-13
Abstract: Skin dermabrasion device by gently contacting the skin with an abrasive, comprising a handleable housing (10) and driving means for the abrasive. This device is intended in particular for cosmetic treatments of the epidermis called microepidermabrasion. The device comprises a curved abrasive surface (30) held by a support (32) mounted in or on the housing (10, 18) for an oscillatory motion allowing the oscillation of the curved abrasive surface (30) about its axis. A support surface (40) surrounds the abrasive surface (30) on at least two opposing sides leaving a gap to allow the oscillating motion. The device is arranged in such a way as to allow, by the application of the support surface (44) against the skin (50) and around the region of the skin to be treated, the gentle contact of this region of skin with the oscillating abrasive surface. Thus a microabrasion of the epidermis through the oscillation of the curved abrasive surface (30) lightly applied against the skin is achieved, thanks to the support surface (40) that prevents any injury or penetration beyond the epidermis.

IPC: A23K1/18
Filed: 2002-06-04
Granted: 2011-12-06
Abstract: A process for preserving and storing nematodes having an increased feeding value for later use as needed in the feeding of aquaculture organisms. In this process, nematodes are enriched with an additive such as essential fatty acids, vaccines, hormones, immunostimulants, attractants, nutrients and pigments. Liposomes can serve as a medium for feeding the additives to the nematodes. The enriched nematodes are then desiccated by inducing a quiescent anhydrobiosis (dehydration) and stored for off-the-shell use as needed. When required for feeding, the desiccated enriched nematodes are rehydrated and fed to the aquaculture organisms.

Title: Lysin-deficient bacteriophages having reduced immunogenicity
Inventor: RAMACHANDRAN JANAKIRAMAN
IPC: A61K35/76
Filed: 2002-09-27
Granted: 2012-01-24
Abstract: The present invention features therapeutic bacteriophage deficient in the lysin protein ("Lys minus" phage). Lys minus bacteriophage are incapable of facilitating efficient lysis of the bacterial host since the enzymatic activity of the lysin of the phage is needed for breaking down the peptidoglycan layer of the bacterial cell wall. Lys minus bacteriophage retain activity in invasion of its appropriate bacterial host, destruction of the bacterial genome, and replication, which are sufficient to inhibit bacterial growth and replication. Therefore, the therapeutic Lys minus phage stops the spread of infection by the bacterial pathogen without lysis of the bacterium.  This approach is attractive as it also prevents the release of the phage progeny, thus reducing or eliminating the potential for generation of immune responses against the phage. The incapacitated bacterial pathogen is then removed by the normal defense systems such as phagocytes and macrophages.

Title: Self-sealing retractable writing instrument
Inventor: CARROLL CRAIG
IPC: B43K8/02
Filed: 2003-04-17
Granted: 2011-06-21
Abstract: This invention provides a retractable writing instrument (100) that substantially prevents writing fluid from evaporating through the tip (102) when the tip (102) is in a retracted position to eliminate the need for a cap. Within the writing instrument (100) is an enclosure member (300) that has a vapor chamber (306). In the retracted position, the tip (102) of the writing instrument (100) is within the vapor chamber (306) to substantially seal the tip (102) from ambient air so that writing fluid does not evaporate through the tip (102) The enclosure member (300) has a lip (302) that opens to allow the tip (102) to move forward and extend from the writing instrumen (100) so that writing fluid can be delivered to the writing surface for writing. When the tip (102) is moved back into the retracted position the lip (302) closes to substantially seal the tip (102) from the ambient air. An external compression may be made of a material that is durable so that the lip (302) does not wear out after many cycles of moving the tip (102) between the retracted and protracted positions, such as silicone, butyl rubber, and thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV) material including butyl rubber cross-linked with polypropylene.
