Publication number: 20150153368Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for measuring levels of class VI isoprostane, an early predictive marker of pre-eclampsia (PE). The present invention also relates to an assay and diagnostic kit for performing the method of predicting PE by measuring the level of this marker and optionally establishing a ratio over other markers such as polyunstaturated fatty acids (PUFA) or beta-carotene. In particular, the method determines the level a class VI isoprostane in a blood sample from a pregnant woman prior to the appearance of symptoms of PE.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 14, 2014Publication date: June 4, 2015Inventors: Jean-Francois Bilodeau, Pierre Julien

Patent number: 7666248Abstract: A method is described for priming an in-line molten metal filtration unit having a porous ceramic or refractory filter mounted substantially horizontally in a filter box. This filter box has an inlet for molten metal and an outlet for molten metal, the outlet being a closeable outlet in an exit well connecting to the downstream side of the filter. The method of the invention comprises the steps of adding a molten metal to the filter box sufficient to entirely cover the upstream side of the filter with a depth of molten metal and temporarily sealing the outlet in the exit well. A steadily increasing vacuum is then applied to the closed exit well at a rate between 0.1 and 10 kPa per second by withdrawing a stream of air from the exit well by means of a fan or air venturi until molten metal begins to flow through the filter. At that point the vacuum is quickly released and the molten metal outlet is opened.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2005Date of Patent: February 23, 2010Assignee: Alcan International LimitedInventors: Luc Belley, Jean-François Bilodeau, André Gendron, Serge Munger
