Patent CA-2227692-E (CA)
Inventor: BEHMANN HENRY
IPC: B01D63/04
Filed: 1996-08-08
Granted: 2010-06-01
Abstract: A vertical skein of "fibers", opposed terminal portions of which are held in headers unconfined in a modular shell, is aerated with a gas-distribution means which produces a mass of bubbles serving the function of a scrub-brush for the outer surfaces of the fibers. The membrane device is surprisingly effective with relatively little cleansing gas, the flux through the membranes reaching an essentially constant relatively high value because the vertical deployment of fibers allows bubbles to rise upwards along the outer surfaces of the fibers. Further, bubbles flowing along the outer surfaces of the fibers make the fibers surprisingly resistant to being fouled by build-up of deposits of inanimate particles or microorganisms in the substrate provided that the length of each fiber is only slightly greater than the direct center-to-center distance between opposed faces of the headers, preferably in the range from at least 0.1 % to about 5 % greater. For use in a large reservoir, a bank of skeins is used with a gas distributor means; each skein has fibers preferably > 0.5 meter long, which together provide a surface area > 10 m2. The terminal end portions of fibers in each novel header are kept free from fiber-to-fiber contact with a novel method of potting fibers.

Patent PT-674646-E (PT)
Inventor: KUMAR RAJ
IPC: A61K47/48
Filed: 1992-12-17
Abstract: Compounds are disclosed for treating viral infections due to herpes, influenza, hepatitis B, Epstein-Barr, and varicella zoster viruses, as well as cytomegalovirus and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) by means of lipid derivatives of antiviral agents. The compounds consist of lipid derivatives of phosphonoacids having antiviral activity which are linked, commonly through the phosphate group of the phosphonoacid, to one of a selected group of lipids. The lipophilic nature of these compounds provides advantages over the use of the phosphonoacids alone. It also makes it possible to incorporate them into the lamellar structure of liposomes when combined with similar molecules. In the form of liposomes, these antiviral molecules are preferentially taken up by macrophages and monocytes, cells which have been found to harbor the target human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Additional site specificity may be incorporated into the liposomes with the addition of ligands, such as monoclonal antibodies or other peptides or proteins which bind to viral proteins. Effective phosphonoacids are phosphonoformic acid or phosphonoacetic acid; lipid groups may be glycolipids, sphingolipids, phospholipids, glycerolipids, or fatty acids. The compounds persist, after intracellular hydrolysis, as the antiviral phosphonoacids. The compounds are effective in improving the efficacy of antiviral phosphonoacids by prolonging the antiviral activity after the administration of the drug has ended, and in preventing retroviral replication in HIV infections which have become resistant to therapy with conventional forms of the antiretroviral agents.

Abstract: A pulse oximeter sensor (410) with a light source optimized for low oxygen saturation ranges and for maximizing the immunity to perturbation induced artifact. Preferably, a red (112) and an infrared light source (114) are used, with the red light source (112) having a mean wavelength between 700-790 nm. The infrared light source (114) can have a mean wavelength as in prior art devices used on patients with high saturation. The sensor of the present invention is further optimized by arranging the spacing between the light emitter (112,114) and light detectors (116) to minimize the sensitivity to perturbation induced artifact. The present invention optimizes the chosen wavelengths to achieve a closer matching of the absorption and scattering coefficient products for the red and IR light sources. This optimization gives robust readings in the presence of perturbation artifacts including force variations, tissue variations and variations in the oxygen saturation itself. <IMAGE>
