Patent EP-1480815-B1 (EP)
Inventor: RASMUSSEN OLE-BENDT
IPC: B29C48/495

Abstract: New cross-laminates are formed of films of which at least two are uniaxially or unbalanced biaxially oriented, in which the main direction of orientation in one of these films crosses the main direction of orientation in the other one, having modifications, made in a suitable pattern, of the surface properties of the two films on the surfaces which are inside the laminate and are bonded to each other. The internally arranged surface layers of the films comprise an array of strands (101, 102) of coextruded material and the films are arranged so that the arrays of the two films cross one another. The strands may be used to control adhesion between the films and reduce the tendency to delaminate on repeated flexing, making a laminate suitable for use as a tarpaulin. Alternatively, especially in combination with provision of embossment of at least one of the films whose main layer is transparent to form striations (103), colored strands may confer interesting visual effects on the laminate viewed from the side of that film which may make the laminate appear thicker than it actually is.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a method or methods of targeted genetic recombination or mutagenesis in a host cell or organism, and compositions useful for carrying out the method. The targeting method of the present invention exploits endogenous cellular mechanisms for homologous recombination and repair of double stranded breaks in genetic material. The present invention provides numerous improvements over previous mutagenesis methods, such advantages include that the method is generally applicable to a wide variety of organisms, the method is targeted so that the disadvantages associated with random insertion of DNA into host genetic material are eliminated, and certain embodiments require relatively little manipulation of the host genetic material for success. Additionally, it provides a method that produces organisms with specific gene modifications in a short period of time.

Abstract: The present invention relates to immuno-protected encapsulated cells producing an immunomodulator, for example GM-CSF (granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor). The cells of the invention are particularly well adapted for providing an active adjuvant or immunomodulator, for example in the context of immunisation in humans and animals. These cells can be used for vaccination where they provide the immunomodulator in an active form, in a continuous, non-immunogenic manner in the immediate vicinity of the vaccine antigen(s). The invention also relates to a vaccine composition comprising immuno-protected encapsulated cells producing an immunomodulator and an antigenic component. The invention also relates to a kit comprising a cell as described and an antigenic component. The strategy of the invention is perfectly suited for both cancer immunotherapy and vaccination against infectious agents.

Abstract: An improved apparatus for monitoring the intra-abdominal pressure of a hospitalized patient includes a urinary catheter connected to a urine valve having selectable communication positions between a discharge end of the urinary catheter and either a drain or a fluid source. Preferably, the urine valve has a housing adapted to resist patient discomfort from leg-valve contact. One operable protective housing may be embodied as a separate tray component. Plumbing structure desirably maintains fluid supply and drain conduits in a substantially parallel arrangement to assist routing those conduits between a patient's legs. When the urine valve is oriented for communication to the fluid source, an infusion pump may be used to introduce a known quantity of fluid through the urine valve and into the patient's bladder where the fluid's pressure can be measured. Desirably, a double check valve is included in a fluid supply path and arranged to permit repetitive operation of a syringe to inject a bolus of fluid into the patient's bladder. Subsequent to making a pressure measurement, the urine valve is returned to the bladder draining position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to aspects of securing holding jaws in nail machines, including a method, a machine, a tool ring and a holding jaw for such purposes. The novel aspects of the invention include that holding jaws are secured to a tool ring in a manner where a number of immovably secured passive fittings are used as well as a number of active fittings. It is hereby ensured that holding jaws may be e.g. replaced without loosening many other holding jaws, and that the holding jaws may be placed very precisely and in a manner, which is repeatable. It is also ensured that the holding jaws may be effectively and easily secured. The passive fittings will each provide at least one fix point from where one or more holding jaws may be lined up, in a manner where the interdependency between the secured holding jaws is reduced, whereby a larger degree of precision is obtained, also when a high number of holding jaws are involved, and also when the distance between the jaws are identical along the entire circumference of the tool ring.

Abstract: An apparatus for checking the integrity of tools includes an optoelectronic system ( 7 ) with a laser beam ( 21 ), a base ( 6 ) movable along a longitudinal direction (X) for enabling displacements between tool and optoelectronic system and a device for checking the mutual position including, for example, a transducer ( 9,10 ). A sensor ( 22 ) of the optoelectronic system detects the interruption of the beam and, on the basis of the transducer signal at said interruption and on the comparison with a known value, the integrity of the tool is determined. A coupling mechanism ( 24 ) of the optoelectronic system coupled at the base enables oscillations of the former along a transversal reference surface, that define a sensitive delimited area ( 33 ). The oscillations are controlled by means of a motor ( 26 ) and interruptions of the beam are detected and signalled by the sensor the moment that the end of the tool interferes with the sensitive delimited area.
