20120236302 | NANOSCALE VISOMETER DEVICE - A nano viscometer device suitable for determining the concentration of a solute within a fluid sample preferably includes a hollow core Photonic Crystal Fibre (HC-PCF) acting as a capillary tube having a core and means for filling the capillary tube with a fluid sample. Light is preferably guided light into the HC-PCF and detected exiting the tube. The rate at which the capillary tube is filled with the fluid is optically measured based on the light to determine the viscosity of the fluid to calculate the concentration of a solute. The preferred capillary viscometer is capable of measuring the viscosity of nano-litre quantities of a sample fluid. On one example, the preferred viscometer makes use of HC-PCF for the detection of glucose dissolved in nano water, demonstrating that HC-PCF can be used for continuous monitoring of glucose levels within blood plasma. | 09-20-2012 |

20090155916 | LIQUID ANALYSER AND METHOD - A liquid analyser has a reactor portion and an associated measurement portion. A sample pump is operable to deliver a liquid sample to a reactor vessel. A base pump supplies a base solution to the reactor vessel. An ozone generator supplies ozone to the reactor vessel. The liquid sample is oxidised in the reactor vessel by means of hydroxyl radicals which are generated using the base solution and ozone to reduce complex components of the liquid sample to their lowest state in solution. The oxidised sample solution is delivered to an optical detector in the measurement portion to determine the concentration of one or more selected materials such as nitrogen, phosphorous or a heavy metal in the oxidised sample solution. | 06-18-2009 |

20150071024 | LIQUID ANALYZER DEVICE AND RELATED METHOD - A method of effectively mixing a gas with a liquid using an agitator. The agitator can be a component of a larger liquid analysis system. The method includes using the action of a reciprocating member to draw liquid from a sample liquid chamber through a liquid passageway into an agitation chamber. In the agitation chamber, a gas is added to the liquid and the mixture is then forced by the action of the reciprocating member through the liquid passageway into the sample liquid chamber. | 03-12-2015 |

20100331952 | METHOD FOR FILTERING EMBOLIC MATERIAL - The method comprises the steps of advancing a guidewire from a first intermediate location to a further intermediate location which is proximal of the treatment location and, subsequently, advancing a medical device over the guidewire toward the further intermediate location. The method may comprise repeating these steps for additional intermediate locations. In one case the treatment location is in the carotid artery. The treatment location may be at or adjacent to the carotid bifurcation. An intermediate location may be at or adjacent to the aortic arch. An intermediate location may be at or adjacent to the carotid take-off. The medical device may be delivered over the guidewire using a delivery catheter. The delivery catheter and the medical device may be advanced through the vasculature without the use of a guide catheter. | 12-30-2010 |

20100152772 | INTERVENTIONAL MEDICAL CLOSURE DEVICE - An interventional medical closure device is suitable for assisting closure of an opening through a blood vessel wall after completion of an interventional procedure within the internal lumen of the blood vessel. The device comprises a closure element, a grasping element for grasping the closure element, and a delivery element for delivering the closure element into the internal lumen of the blood vessel. The closure element comprises a suture, and an engagement foot at a distal end of the suture. The grasping element is inter-engageable with the closure element to grasp the closure element. The delivery element comprises a main body portion, and a distal nose. The distal nose defines a reception space for carrying the engagement foot of the closure element. The delivery element also comprises an engagement foot which is movable relative to the main body portion between a low-profile delivery configuration and a protruding engagement configuration. | 06-17-2010 |
20100222796 | INTERVENTIONAL MEDICAL CLOSURE DEVICE - A medical device for creating and closing an opening through a vessel wall is described. The device includes a guiding engagement element positioned in a vessel wall; an incising member positionable over the engagement element; and a cutting element, with a recessed notch, at a distal end of the incising member. The cutting element forms a flap on a first portion of a vessel wall, the flap having a first portion attached to the wall and second portion having a first diameter cut and a second diameter cut larger than the first diameter cut. The engagement element includes a retaining element engaging a portion of the flap; and an anchoring element engaging an external surface of the vessel, wherein the retaining element and the anchoring element exert a compressive force on the vessel wall for assisting closure of the cut. | 09-02-2010 |

20100185229 | VASCULAR FILTER DEVICE - A vascular filter device ( | 07-22-2010 |
20100185230 | VASCULAR FILTER DEVICE - A vascular filter device comprises a support; and a filter comprising one or more filter elements configured to capture thrombus passing through a blood vessel. A holder holds the filter in a closed filtering state and releases to convert the filter to an open state after a period of time. The filter is adapted to retain thrombus after said conversion. In one case the filter elements are arranged to remain in a closed state after release by the holder, because they are blocked by a retained clot from opening fully, and the filter elements are biased to the open state with a bias level which is counter balanced by force exerted by a retained clot under action of blood flow. | 07-22-2010 |
