Patents by Inventor Mei-Hsiu Liao

Mei-Hsiu Liao has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8920573
    Abstract: The present invention increases a number of target reaction containers from one into many. Coordinated with increased reaction times, total reaction volume is increased. By modifying an affinitive column of an automatic synthesis system, a production in a single batch is increased. The products obtained can be conformed to quality check specifications with cost saved.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 14, 2011
    Date of Patent: December 30, 2014
    Assignee: Institute of Nuclear Energy Research, Atomic Energy Council
    Inventors: Chia-Jung Chang, Mei-Hsiu Liao, Lie-Hang Shen
  • Patent number: 8831891
    Abstract: The present invention is related to a direct solid sample analytical technology for determining a content and a uniformity thereof in a lyophilized kit of a sulfur-containing chelator with a stable complex capacity for radiotechnetium (Tc-99m) and radiorhenium (Re-186, Re-188). An economical, stable and easily accessible coal standard is used herein as a contrast substance to construct a sulfur calibration curve, followed by obtaining the sulfur content and the uniformity thereof in the solid lyophilized sample by interpolating the foregoing result into the sulfur calibration curve. Then, the weight content percent is converted to get the content and the uniformity of the chelator in the lyophilized kit. The quality control of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) in the lyophilized kit during key production processes and clinical applications is thus assured.

  • Publication number: 20120207570
    Abstract: Disclosed is an automatic apparatus for feeding and measuring radioactive medicine. The automatic apparatus includes a base, two elevators, two clamping units, a translation unit, a limiting unit, and a holder. The first elevator is movably supported on the base. The first clamping unit includes a sliding block movably supported on the first elevator, a shaft rotationally connected to the sliding block, and a quick-release clamp connected to the shaft. The translation unit is located on the base. The second elevator is movably supported on the translation unit. The second clamping unit includes a sliding block movably supported on the second elevator, a shaft connected to the sliding block thereof, and a pneumatic clamp connected to the shaft thereof. The limiting unit is connected to the second elevator and operable for limiting downward movement of the second elevator. The holder is located on the base.
