20110136815	SOLID ORAL FILM DOSAGE FORMS AND METHODS FOR MAKING SAME - Improved pharmaceutical solid oral film dosage forms for the buccal and/or sublingual delivery of pharmaceutical, nutraceutical or cosmetic ingredients are endowed with instant hydration potential and complete dissolution potentially enabling the active ingredient to become immediately available for enhanced buccal and/or sublingual absorption and/or reduced absorption through the gastrointestinal route. The improved delivery systems for solubilizing and stabilizing pharmaceutically active ingredients exhibit enhanced stability by the use of a combination of crystallization inhibitors, which together can maintain the active ingredient in a desired plurality of particles in an effective size range within a polymeric film matrix.	06-09-2011

Patent application number	Description	Published
20080258710	Analysis of Liquid Chromatography Eluates - When analysing saccharides by HPAEC, the eluate from the column is typically analysed using a amperometric detector. According to the invention, amperometric detection is coupled with ultraviolet detection, with both methods being applied to the eluate. Thus the invention provides a method for analysing the eluate from a liquid chromatography column, wherein the eluate is analysed by both (a) amperometric detection and (b) ultraviolet detection. The information content derivable from using both sorts of detection advantageously exceeds that derivable from either of the two detection methods alone.	10-23-2008
20080274135	Measuring Degree of Polymerisation for Meningococcal Capsular Saccharides That Contain Sialic Acid - The degree of polymerisation (DP) is an important parameter for analysis of saccharide antigens, particularly in glycoconjugates. The invention provides methods that can be used to measure DP for capsular saccharides, particularly for meningococcal saccharides e.g. from serogroups W135 and Y. A preferred method is based on reduction of terminal sialic acid residues on saccharides, with DP then being calculated by comparing the molar ratio of total sialic acid to reduced sialic acid.	11-06-2008
20080286300	Analysis of Saccharide Vaccines Without Interference - The invention is based on methods that allow analysis of mixed meningococcal saccharides from multiple serogroups even though they share monosaccharide units. With a combination of saccharides from serogroups C, W135 and Y, the invention analyses sialic acid, glucose and galactose content. The glucose and galactose results are used to directly quantify saccharides from serogroups Y and W135, respectively, and the combined glucose and galactose content is subtracted from the sialic acid content to quantify saccharides from serogroup C. The three serogroups can thus be resolved even though their monosaccharide contents overlap. The three different monosaccharide analyses can be performed on the same material, without interference between the monosaccharides and without interference from any other saccharide materials in the composition (e.g. lyophilisation stabilisers). The method can be used to analyse total and free saccharide in conjugate vaccines and simplifies quality control of vaccines containing capsular saccharides from multiple serogroups.	11-20-2008
20080305126	Separation of Unconjugated and Conjugated Saccharide by Solid Phase Extraction - The invention is based on the use of solid phase extraction for separating conjugated saccharide from unconjugated saccharide in sample, e.g. a vaccine. Solid phase extraction (SPE) provides faster and more reproducible separation of conjugated saccharides from unconjugated saccharides, thereby allowing quantitative separation of these saccharides. The separation of conjugated and unconjugated saccharide using SPE may be advantageously combined with a quantitative conjugate analysis to provide improved quality control for conjugate vaccines. The SPE separation is compatible with existing quantitative conjugate analysis techniques, such as high performance anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD).	12-11-2008
20100219335	Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Samples Using Ionic Eluent Comprising a Volatile Ionic Salt - The use of an ionic eluent in ion exchange chromatography for analysing a sample comprising an analyte, wherein the ionic eluent comprises a volatile ionic salt, in particular an ammonium salt, is described. Such eluents are shown to be compatible with mass spectrometry (MS), providing clean mass spectra of the analyte. Furthermore, eluates from ion exchange chromatography may be advantageously analysed with MS without additional on-line or off-line devices for desalting or suppressing salts in the eluent. Important information concerning the chemical structure and composition of a sample may therefore be obtained with ion chromatography-MS by utilising the invention. The invention also provides a method of analysing a sample (e.g. a vaccine) comprising an analyte (e.g. a saccharide) by ion chromotography-MS by employing an ionic eluent, wherein the ionic eluent comprises a volatile ionic salt. An apparatus for analysing a sample comprising an analyte is also disclosed.	09-02-2010

In some cases, the anion-binding polymers have a pore volume distribution such that a fraction of the polymer is not available for non-interacting solutes above a certain percentage of the MW of the target ion for the polymer. In some cases, the anion-binding polymers are characterized by low ion-binding interference, where the interference is measured in, for example, a gastrointestinal simulant, relative to non-interfering buffer.

20110239219	PROTECTING SHARED RESOURCES USING SHARED MEMORY AND SOCKETS - Shared memory and sockets are used to protect shared resources in an environment where multiple operating systems execute concurrently on the same hardware. Rather than using spinlocks for serializing access to the shared resources, when a thread is unable to acquire a shared resource because that resource is already held by another thread, the thread that was unable to acquire the resource creates a socket with which it will wait to be notified that the shared resource has been released. The sockets may be network sockets or in-memory sockets that are accessible across the multiple operating systems; if sockets are not available in a particular implementation, communication technology that provides analogous services between operating systems may be used instead. In an optional aspect, fault tolerance is provided to address socket failures, in which case one or more threads may fall back (at least temporarily) to using spinlocks. As another option, a locking service may execute on each operating system to provide a programming interface through which threads can invoke operations for holding and releasing the lock.	09-29-2011

As provided herein, to identify potential vantage point DNS servers, a set of authoritative name servers is identified and, from that set, those authoritative name servers that respond to a DNS query are identified as responsive authoritative name servers. Identifying a CDN content server that serves a particular vantage point DNS server involves retrieving an IP address for the CDN content server from a DNS query to the DNS server corresponding to the vantage point. The delay performance between the vantage point DNS server and the CDN content server can then be determined. Further, one can determine locations to deploy new data centers for a CDN based on delay performance, A delay from one or more vantage points to an existing CDN's DNS servers can be measured, and desired rank of locations can be generated. A location of a new data center can be selected based on a desired delay performance ranking.	04-08-2010
