  • Patent number: 8765755
    Abstract: The present invention relates to N-containing heterocyclic compounds that are inhibitors of protein kinases including JAK kinases. In particular, the compounds are selective for JAK1, JAK2, JAK3 or TYK2 kinases and combinations thereof such as JAK1 and JAK2. The kinase inhibitors can be used in the treatment of kinase associated diseases such as immunological and inflammatory diseases including organ transplants; hyperproliferative diseases including cancer and myeloproliferative diseases; viral diseases; metabolic diseases; and vascular diseases.

  • Patent number: 8722624
    Abstract: A streamlined method for purifying alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) from an AAT-containing protein mixture, such as a Cohn fraction IV precipitate, is provided. In the method of the invention, contaminating proteins are destabilized by cleavage of disulfide bonds with a reducing reagent, such as a dithiol, which does not affect AAT. The destabilized proteins are then preferentially adsorbed on a solid protein-adsorbing material, without the addition of a salt as a precipitant. Separation of the solid adsorbent from the solution leaves a purified AAT solution that is directly suitable for chromatographic purification, without the need for extensive desalting as in prior art processes. A process incorporating this method, which provides pharmaceutical grade AAT in high yield on a commercial scale, is also described.

  • Publication number: 20130264925
    Abstract: A support device includes a base member having a first side adapted to face a flat surface and a second side opposite to the first side, and a cover member adapted to cover at least partially the base member. The base member is adapted to be attached to the flat surface by a fastening system. The fastening system includes a first surface adapted for the application of a stretch releasable adhesive strip on the first side of the base member. The base member has a through opening extending through the base member from the second side to the first side. The through opening is arranged adjacent to the first surface and is adapted for pulling the stretch releasable adhesive strip at least partially therethrough. The cover member in a first position covers the through opening and in a second position exposes the through opening.

  • Publication number: 20130240554
    Abstract: A solution for detecting level of a consumable tissue product (201, 301) in a tissue dispenser (103, 106) located in a washroom. This is provided in a number of aspects such as a tissue dispenser, a method, system, and a sensor unit utilizing two sensor elements (420, 430), each arranged to measure light reflected from a reflection field located on the tissue product, reflected directly from the tissue product, or measure the absence of the tissue product.
