Title: Thinned halftone dot patterns for inkjet printing
Inventor: RYLANDER RICHARD L
IPC: B41J2/205
Filed: 1995-07-05
Abstract: A set of thinned halftone dot patterns useful in inkjet printing comprises a plurality of halftone cells corresponding to respective shade values. Each of the halftone cells includes a plurality of addressable points, with at least some of the points being turned "on" to define a halftone dot pattern, and at least some of the "on" points defining a core component of the halftone dot pattern being selectively turned "off", thereby producing a thinned halftone dot pattern. The thinned halftone dot patterns enable the use of higher addressability in an inkjet printing system to achieve a wider range of shade values while avoiding undesirable over-inking of printed halftone dot patterns due to excessive overlap between printed ink spots. The thinned halftone dot patterns prevent significant overlap between adjacent ink spots in the core, or "interior", component when the halftone dot pattern is printed by the inkjet printing system, but preserves the entire edge component to maintain desired halftone cell definition. Thinned halftone cells can be stored in a memory as "glyphs" and retrieved by an inkjet printing system to print higher addressability halftone images with enhanced quality and a wider range of shade values.
Patent AU-3135700-A (AU)
Title: Diagnosis of lysosomal storage disorders using saposins and other markers
Inventor: MEIKLE PETER JOHN
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2000-03-17
Abstract: The invention provides methods of diagnosing or monitoring lysosomal storage disorders based on detecting levels of saposins, LAMPs and/or  alpha -glucosidase in patient sample. Elevated levels of saposins and/or LAMPs are indicative of a disorder. Elevated levels of  alpha  glucosidase are indicative of some types of lysosomal storage disorders and decreased levels of  alpha  glucosidase are indicative of other types of lysosomal storage disorder. In some methods, the profile of elevation of different saposins, LAMPs and  alpha  glucosidase allows distinction between different types of lysosomal storage disorder.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/SE85/00128 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 18, 1985 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 18, 1985 PCT Filed Mar. 21, 1985 PCT Pub. No. WO85/04254 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 26, 1985.According to the invention a piezoelectric crystal, e.g. a quartz crystal, coated with a metal or another suitable material is exposed to the action of a corrosive liquid, preferably by being immersed therein. The mass change on the crystal surface, caused by the corrosion, and the resulting change in the natural oscillation frequency of the crystal is determined and constitutes a measure of the corrosivity of the liquid. The natural oscillation frequency of the crystal can in this way also be measured in situ in the liquid, in which way the dynamic course of the corrosion reaction can be followed continuously. According to a special embodiment of the invention the sensitivity during the measurement can be increased, if the crystal is pretreated by being activated with a sulphide solution.

Abstract: A saline soluble fiber is disclosed that is highly refractory. A vacuum cast preform of the fibre has a shrinkage of 3.5 % or less when exposed to 1260  DEG C for 24 hours. The fibre may comprise CaO, SiO2, MgO, optionally ZrO2, optionally less than 0.75 mol % Al2O3, any incidental impurities amounting to less than 2 mol % in total, and in which the SiO2 excess (defined as the amount of SiO2 calculated as remaining after the above named constituents are crystallised as silicates) exceeds 21.8 mol %, with the proviso that, if the amount of CaO is greater than the sum of the amount of MgO and twice the amount of ZrO2 the calculated ratio of diopside to wollastonite does not lie in the range 1.8 to 5.25. Such fibres are usable at elevated temperatures where refractoriness is of importance and their solubility in saline solution may make the fibres safer than non-soluble fibres.

Title: Radially-enlargeable PTFE tape-reinforced vascular grafts and their methods of manufacture
Inventor: SHANNON DONALD
IPC: B29D23/00
Filed: 1996-04-15
Abstract: A method for improving the radial enlargeability and other properties of tape-reinforced tubular vascular graft formed of sintered fluoropolymer(s), such as expanded, sintered PTFE. Broadly, the method comprises the step of radially shrinking the reinforcement tape layer of the graft, or the entire tape-reinforced graft, after sintering thereof. Such radial shrinkage of the reinforcement tape layer, or of the entire graft, renders the graft subsequently radially enlargeable by more than 5%, without tearing or breaking of the reinforcement tape layer of the graft. Radially enlargeable grafts of the present invention may be combined with various types of stents or anchoring systems, to form endovascular graft devices which are transluminally insertable and implantable within the lumen of a host blood vessel. Alternatively, radially enlargeable grafts of the present invention may be implanted by way of traditional surgical graft implantation techniques, without any radial enlargement of the graft at the time of implantation, so as to take advantage of the improved strength properties and suture-holding properties of the radially-shrunken tape-reinforced grafts of the present invention.
