Patent AU-4857599-A (AU)
Title: Molecular torches
Inventor: BECKER MICHAEL M
IPC: C12Q1/6818
Filed: 1999-07-01
Abstract: The present invention features "molecular torches" and the use of molecular torches for detecting the presence of a target nucleic acid sequence. Molecular torches contain a target binding domain, a target closing domain, and a joining region. The target binding domain is biased towards the target sequence such that the target binding domain forms a more stable hybrid with the target sequence than with the target closing domain under the same hybridization conditions. The joining region facilitates the formation or maintenance of a closed torch.

Title: Process for bleaching of lignocellulose-containing pulp
Inventor: HOLTINGER LILLEMOR
IPC: D21C9/147
Filed: 1993-10-25
Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for bleaching of lignocellulose-containing pulp, in which the pulp is treated at a pH between about 1 and about 7 in the presence of a magnesium compound, whereupon the pulp is washed and subsequently bleached with a peroxide-containing compound. The initial treatment removes from the pulp those trace metal ions that have a negative effect on the subsequent bleaching with a peroxide-containing compound. Owing to the presence of magnesium ions in dissolved form during the initial treatment, the magnesium ions are retained in those positions in the pulp where they have a particularly positive effect on the effectiveness of the bleaching stage.

Patent AU-6378499-A (AU)
Title: Automatic power control in uncoordinated frequency-hopping radio systems
Inventor: MATTISSON SVEN
IPC: H04B1/713
Filed: 1999-09-14
Abstract: Transmission power in a frequency-hopping radio system that transmits packets from a sending radio unit to a receiving radio unit, wherein each packet includes an address designating the receiving radio unit, is controlled by measuring received signal strength of packets whose addresses were successfully received in the receiving radio unit, regardless of whether other portions of the respective packets were successfully received. An average signal strength value is generated from the received signal strength measurements. The mathematical difference between the average signal strength value and a target value associated with the receiving radio unit is then determined and used as a basis for deciding whether to send a power control message from the receiving radio unit to the sending radio unit. In order to provide a hysteresis in the power control process, a power control message is sent from the receiving radio unit to the sending radio unit if the mathematical difference is greater than a first decision boundary, or if the mathematical difference is less than a second decision boundary. The power control message may itself include the mathematical difference which, when received by the sending radio unit, is used as a basis for determining a transmission power level adjustment amount. The target value, against which the average signal strength value is compared, may be based on the receiver sensitivity adjusted to account for implementation losses and other inaccuracies.

Title: A storage vessel
Inventor: WATKINSON CHARLES JOHN
IPC: B65D90/507
Filed: 1994-03-30
Abstract: A method of applying a laminate (4, 5, 6) to one side of a wall of a storage vessel (1) and which comprises: securing a first substantially impermeable layer (4) to said one side of the wall; securing an intermediate liquid pervious layer (5) to the exposed side of said first layer (4); and, securing a second substantially impermeable layer (6) to the exposed side of the intermediate layer (5) so as to define a fluid receiving space between the first and second layers (4, 6) in which a monitoring fluid can be received to permit monitoring of the sealing integrity of the storage vessel. The intermediate layer (5) includes a liquid or fluid pervious layer (5a) e.g. of open celled foam, which is bonded to the first impermeable layer (4) and a semi-impermeable layer (5b) e.g. of paper which faces and which becomes bonded to the second impermeable layer (6) upon at least partial impregnation by the material of the layer (6). The layer (5b), therefore performs a dual function, in that it assists in uniting the component layers of the laminate, and also prevents the material making-up the second impermeable layer (6) from impregnated or clogging-up the pores of the pervious layer (5a).\!

Title: Personal alarm system
Inventor: TAYLOR WILLIAM R
IPC: G08B21/04
Filed: 1994-04-08
Abstract: A motion responsive alarm system including a motion sensor having a housing with a rotatable disk therein, a slot in the disk and a ball bearing in the slot and being loosely confined within an annular chamber in the housing surrounding the disk. The disk contains a plurality of orifices which pass between an LED on one side of the disk and a phototransistor on the other. A signal from the phototransistor is sent to a triggering circuit by interrupting light transfer between the LED and the phototransistor. The circuit includes a novel oscillator having a duty cycle of 10% which drives the LED in the sensor. An alternate state device is coupled to the sensor and the oscillator for generating alternate state outputs only during sensing of motion. A one-shot circuit generates a motion pulse each time motion is sensed. A pulse interval timer and gate determine if the pulses are to be gated to a timer or blocked. The timer is reset by these pulses and does not generate an alarm unless a predetermined period of time passes. The device may be coupled to a self-contained breathing apparatus and is energized only when the breathing apparatus mask is being worn by the user.

Title: Process for purifying polyethers
Inventor: COSMAN JAMES P
IPC: C08G65/26
Filed: 2000-08-23
Abstract: This invention involves several ways for improving a coalescing process for purifying a crude polyether. In one aspect, particulate zirconium dioxide is selected as a coalescing medium. In a second aspect, alkali metal catalyst is recovered and recycled to make additional polyether product. In a third aspect, a polyether stream obtained from the coalescing step is purified by stripping water in at least two phases, the first of which involves moderate conditions so that water but not allyl alcohol or higher molecular weight impurities are removed from the polyether, and the second of which involves more stringent stripping conditions. In a fourth aspect, crude polyether that is subjected to a holding period before undergoing a coalescing step is mixed with water to minimize the formation of impurities that are believed to compatibilize the aqueous and polyether phases. In a fifth aspect, the coalescing process is conducted under a non-oxidizing atmosphere.
