20100189807Use of an ozone / oxygen mixture as a primary anticancer therapy via intraperitoneal insufflation - Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) represent a group of metastasizing tumors with a high mortality rate in man and animals. Since the biomolecule ozone was found to inhibit growth of various carcinoma cells in vitro we here applied the highly aggressive and lethal VX2 carcinoma HNSCC tumor model of the New Zealand White rabbit to test whether ozone exerts anti-tumorous effects in vivo.

20090315664Fuses - The present invention relates to a fuse assembly for rapid interruption of a prospective fault current. The fuse assembly includes a plurality of splitter plates. A plurality of foil elements extend between a pair of terminals and are physically supported by the splitter plates. A pair of parallel busbars are in series with the foil elements and generate a magnetic field that is substantially perpendicular to the current flowing in the foil elements. In the presence of a prospective fault current, the foil elements will melt and at arcing inception an electromagnetic force developed as a result of interaction between the magnetic field and the arc current will push the molten foil elements into the splitter plates. This increases the arc length and hence the arc voltage. At least the foil elements and the splitter plates are preferably located in flowing liquid dielectric such as MIDEL 7131, for example. The liquid dielectric flow may help to push the molten foil elements into the splitter plates and removes debris away from the arc site.12-24-2009

20090100067PRESENTING EVIDENTIARY INFORMATION - The invention concerns the presentation of evidentiary information on computer generated interfaces within secure user groups. For example presenting evidence a courtroom to the judge, witness and legal representatives of the plaintiff and defendant simultaneously on computer display screens. All presenting of evidence is done using a website interface where each user logs in and their log in provides them with functionalities that reflect their role in the legal proceedings. The invention makes presenting evidence easier by allowing evidence to be ordered, facilitating private data, being able to hold on to evidence or to cause evidence to be presented to a particular user or team of users. Aspects of the invention include a set of interfaces, computer systems, methods and application software.04-16-2009

20080296915MAGNETIC LATCH - A magnetic self-latching device for a gate has a main body with handles on either side for operation or has an arrangement to be remotely actuated, for example electrically. A latching body has a high strength magnet usually provided at the bottom of a cavity which defines a latching shoulder. The latching body is adapted to be fixed to a gate post. The main body, with its housing, can be mounted on the gate frame and incorporates a latch pin which, in the door-closed position, is displaced by magnetic attraction to an extended latching position and against the biasing of a return spring. The gate cannot be opened until actuation of the mechanism occurs, for example by rotating a handle to retract the pin against the magnetic force; the gate can then be swung open. When the handle is released, the biasing spring retains the latch pin in a retracted position. A lost motion arrangement is provided so that there is substantially no load on the pin when the handles are released and the pin is supported in the retracted position by the return spring. A carriage and an associated actuator or a flexible/semi flexible line connection is provided in the housing for incorporating the lost motion arrangement.12-04-2008

20090325810DETECTION METHOD - The present invention relates generally to an array of nucleic acid molecules, the expression profiles of which characterise the anatomical origin of a cell or population of cells within the large intestine. More particularly, the present invention relates to an array of nucleic acid molecules, the expression profiles of which characterise the proximal or distal origin of a cell or population of cells within the large intestine. The expression profiles of the present invention are useful in a range of applications including, but not limited to determining the anatomical origin of a cell or population of cells which have been derived from the large intestine. Still further, since the progression of a normal cell towards a neoplastic state is often characterised by phenotypic de-differentiation, the method of the present invention also provides a means of identifying a cellular abnormality based on the expression of an incorrect expression profile relative to that which should be expressed by the subject cells when considered in light of their anatomical location within the colon. Accordingly, this aspect of the invention provides a valuable means of identifying the existence of large intestine colon cells, these being indicative of an abnormality within the large intestine such as the onset or predisposition to the onset of a condition such as a colorectal neoplasm.12-31-2009
