  • Patent number: 6830714
    Abstract: A process, and a suitable apparatus, for production of particles of a material in which stream of a dispersion of the material in a solvent and a stream of a compressible fluid antisolvent substance are mixed under conditions such that the substance is in compressible fluid antisolvent state. The mixture then flows along a conduit (17) toward an orifice (18), from which it flows into a downstream region in which the compressible fluid antisolvent substance decompresses and the material is isolated in a particulate state. Preferably the antisolvent substance is a supercritical fluid. The process and apparatus can generate a co-formulation of the material with additives which can be introduced in a suitable aqueous or solvent based carrier vehicle.

  • Patent number: 6803369
    Abstract: A method of modulating the activity of a aberrant cell topoisomerase enzyme involving contacting the enzyme with a compound that inhibits enzyme-mediated cleavage of a polynucleotide substrate with which the enzyme is in complex.

  • Patent number: 6800486
    Abstract: A novel method for the determination of amino acids by HPLC using pre-column derivatization is described. In this procedure, the aminno acids are derivatized with 2-chlorobenzoxazole to yield highly fluroresent N-(2-benzoxazolyl)-amino acids (BOX-AAs) for detection at very high sensitivity. Derivatives can also be detected using conventional UV detection methods. The BOX-AAs can be separated on a C18 reversed phase column for quantitative estimation. This method can be used for the preparation of N-(2-benzoxazolyl)-amino acids in large amounts.
