| 20110171676 | ASC AS A MARKER FOR LUNG CANCER - The present invention relates to the assessment of lung cancer. It discloses the use of protein ASC in the assessment of lung cancer. It also relates to a method for assessing lung cancer in vitro using a liquid sample, derived from an individual by measuring ASC in the sample. Measurement of ASC can, e.g., be used in the early detection or in the follow-up of patients with lung cancer. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20110212464 | PACAP AS A MARKER FOR CANCER - The present invention relates to a method aiding in the assessment of cancer. It discloses the use of the proapoptotic caspase adaptor protein (=PACAP) as a universal marker of different types of cancer. PACAP aids in the assessment of pulmonary or lung cancer (LC), particularly of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), but also of other specific types of cancer. Such specific types of cancer are e.g. colon, bladder, cervix, ovary, endometrial, head and neck, breast, melanoma, pancreas, kidney, prostate, esophagus, stomach or bile duct cancer. Furthermore, the present invention especially relates to a method for assessing cancer from a liquid sample, derived from an individual by measuring PACAP in said sample. Measurement of PACAP can, e.g., be used in the early detection of cancer or in the surveillance of patients who undergo surgery. | 09-01-2011 |
| 20120028835 | SECERNIN-1 AS A MARKER FOR CANCER - Disclosed is a method aiding in the assessment of cancer. It involves the use of the secernin-1 protein (SCRN1) as a universal marker of different cancer types. More specifically disclosed is a method for assessing cancer from a liquid sample derived from an individual by measuring SCRN1 in the sample. Measurement of SCRN1 can, e.g., be used in the early detection of cancer or in the surveillance of patients who undergo surgery. | 02-02-2012 |

| 20090188525 | Apparatus, carrier and method for the plasma treatment of molds - An apparatus for the plasma treatment of molds ( | 07-30-2009 |
| 20090231576 | Method and Apparatus for Centering an Ophthalmic Lens - An ophthalmic lens (CL), e.g. a contact lens, is centered in a concave trough ( | 09-17-2009 |
| 20100155975 | MOLD RELEASE SHEET - The present invention relates to a mold half for making an ophthalmic lens, in particular a contact lens, wherein the mold half comprises a release sheet removably arranged on the mold surface of said mold half to separate a lens forming material from the mold surface, as well as to a method for applying a removable mold release sheet to said mold half. The mold half of the invention comprises a vacuum means to removably attach said release sheet to said mold surface, and preferably the mold half further comprises a pinch-off rim for forming the edge of said ophthalmic lens. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100316476 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SINGULATING OPHTHALMIC LENSES - The present invention relates to a method and a device for singulating ophthalmic lenses, particularly contact lenses. The method and the device are suitable for integration into an automated production of ophthalmic lenses, particularly contact lenses. | 12-16-2010 |
| 20110057337 | PLASTIC CASTINGS MOLDS - The invention is concerned with the problem that with known plastic casting moulds, especially those of polypropylene, the lenses produced with these moulds have a slippery surface. The invention solves this problem through the use of polymers which are notable for their very low oxygen permeability. | 03-10-2011 |
| 20110089585 | Method for the Simultaneous Manufacture of Ophthalmic Lenses, in Particular Contact Lenses, with Different Parameters on the Same Production Line - There is described a method for the simultaneous manufacture of contact lenses having different lens parameters on the same production line, where a number of molds, each comprising male and female mold halves, are transported in sequential rows of and in each row in side by side configuration through a series of treatment stations, which are arranged sequentially along a production line, in which lenses of specific parameters are manufactured from a lens forming material. During manufacture each lens is associated with a lens identification code. There is also described a closed cycle production line for carrying out the method. | 04-21-2011 |
