Patent AU-4859601-A (AU)
Title: Particulate composition
Inventor: DICKINSON PAUL ALFRED
IPC: A61K9/12
Filed: 2001-04-18
Abstract: Nanoparticles are prepared from a colloidal system comprising a continuous phase and micelles, the micelles comprising surfactant material. A microemulsion is formed by admixing the colloidal system with a solution of an active material, such as a medicament, dissolved in a solvent wherein the solution forms a disperse phase with the micelles of surfactant material. At least the dispersed phase is quenched to a solid state and the continuous phase and solvent are removed to produce the nanoparticles. The nanoparticles can be incorporated in an aerosol composition suitable for deep lung delivery by means of a metered dose inhaler.

Patent AU-7600694-A (AU)
Title: Modular multifiber connector
Inventor: BYLANDER JAMES R
IPC: G02B6/36
Filed: 1994-08-17
Abstract: A modular, multifiber connector comprising a plug and a receptacle whose outward appearance and installation is similar to a convention RJ45 jack for copper conductors. The plug includes a body having a surface with several fiber-receiving grooves, and the plug fibers terminate along an intermediate section of the grooves. The receptacle includes a housing having an opening, and a plate which is slidably mounted inside the housing. The plate is biased toward the opening and has several more fiber-receiving grooves. The receptacle fibers approach the plate at an oblique angle causing them to bend as they contact the grooves of the plate. When the plug is inserted into the opening, its forward end contacts the plate and pushes it back. As the plate retracts, the terminal portions of the fibers in the receptacle (which are not secured to the plate) become free to flex, and position themselves in the corresponding grooves of the plug. Since the receptacle fibers are still bent, they are positively biased toward the plug fibers and move into forcible abutment with the terminal ends of the plug fibers. The connector advantageously incorporates V-groove technology into a multifiber format without requiring clamping of the terminal portions of the fibers.

Title: Carbon monoxide hydrogenation process
Inventor: DAAGE MICHEL A
IPC: B01J25/04
Filed: 2001-08-10
Abstract: A method is disclosed for renewing the activity of a Dispersed Active Metal (DAM) catalyst during operation of a reactor wherein the hydrogenation of carbon monoxide to produce a mixture of hydrocarbons is being carried out comprising withdrawing a mixture of hydrocarbons and a portion of the DAM catalyst, reducing the hydrocarbon content thereof, heating the mixture above the melting temperature of at least one of the metals of the DAM to form a melt, removing any slag that forms on the melt, cooling the melt to form a solid, reducing the particle size thereof to form a renewed particulate DAM catalyst, which is then returned to the reactor. Wherein the DAM catalyst is a Raney catalyst, a leachable metal is added to the reduced hydrocarbon mixture or the melt under non-oxidizing conditions and, after the solid is reduced to a fine particle size, extracting the leachable metal with caustic. The activity of the DAM may be modified or enhanced during the process by the addition of promoter metals, or prior to being returned to the reactor, by slurry low temperature oxidation followed by reduction at elevated temperature, and may further be enhanced by being passivated prior to being returned to the reactor. The catalyst may be withdrawn and replaced periodically or continuously during the operation of the reactor.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/US91/06848 Sec. 371 Date May 3, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date May 3, 1994 PCT Filed Sep. 20, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/05447 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 2, 1992Hormone receptors and the transcription factor Jun/AP-1 have been shown to reciprocally repress one another by a mechanism which is independent of DNA binding. For example, over-expression of AP-1 represses glucocorticoid-induced activation of genes carrying a functional glucocorticoid response element. Conversely, glucocorticoid has been shown to repress the transcriptional activation of genes which are controlled by promoters which contain the AP-1 binding site. In addition, methods are disclosed for selecting compounds useful for treating cells undergoing uncontrolled proliferation, such compounds being capable of disrupting the function of AP-1, but display substantially no ability to promote the transcriptional activation of hormone responsive genes.
