  • Chimeric flavivirus vaccines
    Patent number: 6962708
    Abstract: A chimeric live, infectious, attenuated virus containing a yellow fever virus, in which the nucleotide sequence for a prM-E protein is either deleted, truncated, or mutated, so that functional prM-E protein is not expressed, and integrated into the genome of the yellow fever virus, a nucleotide sequence encoding a prM-E protein of a second, different flavivirus, so that the prM-E protein of the second flavivirus is expressed.

  • Surgical instrumentation including a clamp assembly to facilitate attachment of blood vessel sections
    Patent number: 4715377
    Abstract: Surgical instrumentation in the form of a clamp assembly specifically structured to position and maintain sections of blood vessels, such as veins and arteries, such that open ends of such blood vessel sections are maintained in immediately adjacent relation to one another and properly exposed so that such ends may be sutured or otherwise secured together. The clamp assembly is structured such that the vessel sections to be attached are supported and engaged both interiorly and exteriorly to insure maintenance of the respective open ends of such sections in a substantially outwardly flared and exposed position for attachment to one another.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 25, 1985
    Date of Patent: December 29, 1987
    Inventor: Juan Arroyo
  • Surgical instrumentation for blood vessels
    Patent number: 4681109
    Abstract: Surgical instrumentation in the form of a clamp assembly specifically structured to position and maintain sections of blood vessels, including both veins and arteries, in a preferred surgical orientation such that open ends of the vessel sections are substantially adjacently positioned relative to one another and properly exposed and oriented so that such section ends may be sutured or otherwise secured together. The clamp assembly is structured such that vessel sections to be attached are adjustably positionable so that placement of the section ends may be adjusted and changed to insure proper relative positioning to one another in a preferred exposed position for attachment.
