| 20090008098 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CATCHING A PUMP-DOWN PLUG OR BALL - An improved method and apparatus for catching and holding a ball, plug or dart during oil and gas well operations (e.g., cementing operations) employs a specially configured tool body that accepts a ball or a plug or a dart that flows downwardly into the tool body but disallows escape or discharge of the ball, plug or dart upwardly. The tool body has first and second flow channels or passages, one being generally axially aligned with the tool body. The other flow channel or passage is a second channel or passage that enables fluid flow around a cavity that contains one or more captive plugs (or ball or dart(s)). | 01-08-2009 |

| 20090272889 | METHOD FOR MEASURING FIBER DIGESTIBILITY - Described is a method of measuring fiber digestion in ruminants and calibrating spectrophotometers using the measured fiber digestion values. The method includes the steps of harvesting rumen fluid from at least one ruminant animal and combining the rumen fluid with a primer composition comprising a carbohydrate. The rumen fluid and carbohydrate are then incubated in a sealed container until a pre-determined pressure is achieved within the sealed container. A plant matter sample is digested with the rumen fluid so treated. The digested sample is the measured for absorbance or reflectance using a spectrophotometer. The digestion values and the absorbance or reflectance values are then correlated to construct a standard curve for predicting fiber digestion values using spectrophotometric analysis, preferably NIRS analysis. | 11-05-2009 |

| 20090261177 | RAILWAY RAIL PAD - A rail pad is disclosed having two upstanding portions, integrally formed with the rail seat portion along opposite edges thereof, so as to extend along only a central part of the edge. Preferably, the upstanding portions are attached to the rail seat portion in such a manner as to be readily detachable therefrom. | 10-22-2009 |

| 20080302881 | Fastening Rail in Railway Slide Chair Assembly - A rail fastening apparatus for fastening an inner stock rail ( | 12-11-2008 |
| 20090045265 | SEALING PLATE FOR RAILWAY RAIL CLIP ANCHORING DEVICE AND SLEEPER MANUFACTURING METHOD - A sealing plate for use with a rail clip anchoring device having a head and a stem which extends from the head into a concrete sleeper when the anchoring device is in use, is adapted for extending over the underside of the head when the stem of the device is being set in a concrete sleeper, thereby to prevent ingress of concrete into the head of the device, and for being retained on the surface of the sleeper thereafter. A major face of the plate, which is uppermost when the sleeper is in use, is provided with at least one clip seat portion for receiving part of a rail clip. In a method of manufacturing a concrete sleeper with at least one embedded rail clip anchoring device, the floor of a mould, from which the sleeper is to be formed, is provided with an aperture through which the head of an anchoring device is inserted and before concrete is introduced into the mould the aperture is sealed off around its edges and around the underside of the head of the anchoring device by placing a sealing plate over the aperture on the floor of the mould, the plate overlapping and sealing around the edges of the aperture other than where the anchoring device is located and having a mating interface with the anchoring device such that a seal is formed therewith. | 02-19-2009 |
| 20090218410 | ANCHORING DEVICES FOR RAIL FASTENING CLIPS - A shoulder for use in retaining a railway rail fastening clip, comprising two interconnected spaced-apart walls, between which a portion of the clip to be retained is held when the shoulder is in use, and clip-engaging means, supported by the walls, for engaging a portion of the clip to be retained, does not have any feature or surface which engages the surface of that clip portion which faces downwardly when the clip is in use. Alternatively, or in addition, none of the contact regions, at which the device engages the rail clip, can be seen when the anchoring device is viewed from above when in its operative orientation and all of the contact regions can be seen when the anchoring device is viewed from below when in the operative orientation. Alternatively, or in addition, all the contact regions lie substantially at the same horizontal distance from the edge of the rail foot when measured perpendicularly to the axis of the rail and in the plane of the rail foot. | 09-03-2009 |

| 20090176309 | Fluorescent Assay - A method and apparatus to estimate the concentration of a non-fluorescent substance (e.g. haemoglobin) in a fluorescent assay by separately estimating the non time dependent alteration attributed to inherent filter effects from the time dependent alteration caused by the assay chemistry. Such a method obviates the requirement for a separate photometric or other measurement thereby simplifying the methodology and associated instrumentation. | 07-09-2009 |
| 20100075338 | Whole Blood Assay - A method and apparatus to estimate the concentration of a target substance (e.g. Cholesterol or CRP) in the plasma component of awhole blood sample without the need to separate the red blood cells from the plasma prior to testing, thereby simplfying the design and construction of the test device. The invention achieves this by measuring the analyte under investigation in a time dependent (bio-/immuno-) chemical reaction and measuring separately, a marker substance (e.g haemoglobin) for the estimation of red blood cell volume, using a non-time-dependent alteration in physical property of the reaction mixture (in this instance, transmission) attributed to inherent filter effects on sample addition. These non-time- dependent changes are not part of the reaction chemistry, and are resolved from the time dependent alteration in physical property caused by the assay chemistry by continuous measurement and mathematical modelling. Algorithms that combine these two parameters are used to estimate the target substance and compensate for variations in the percentage haematocrit of the sample. The method equalises the assay response for subtle variations in patient sample (e.g. haematocrit). | 03-25-2010 |
