Abstract: A method of manufacturing oxytocin or oxytocin receptor agonist comprising a step of combining an antisolvent with a solution comprising oxytocin or oxytocin receptor agonist so as to precipitate a product oxytocin or a product oxytocin receptor agonist from the solution.

Abstract: Systems and methods for a configurable programmer for an implantable cardiovascular medical device are disclosed. A preferred embodiment comprises a graphical user interface to visualize programming processes to alert a clinician to potential problems with the patient's condition or the therapy provided by the device, or the device itself. The programmer is further adapted to minimize the risk of programming potentially dangerous changes to the implantable device's parameter settings by requiring the clinician to first review new value changes before initiating the programming step. The programmer also allows the clinician to view how a change to one or more parameter settings affect other settings before the implantable device is programmed or re-programmed.

Abstract: A method for implementing FDC in an APC system including receiving an FDC model from memory; providing the FDC model to a process model calculation engine; computing a vector of predicted dependent process parameters using the process model calculation engine; receiving a process recipe comprising a set of recipe parameters, providing the process recipe to a process module; executing the process recipe to produce a vector of measured dependent process parameters; calculating a difference between the vector of predicted dependent process parameters and the vector of measured dependent process parameters; comparing the difference to a threshold value; and declaring a fault condition when the difference is greater than the threshold value.

Abstract: An Advanced Process Control (APC) system including Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) is presented for monitoring and controlling a semiconductor manufacturing process that is performed by a semiconductor processing system. The semiconductor processing system includes a number of processing tools, a number of processing modules (chambers), and a number of sensors, and the APC system comprises an APC server, database, interface server, client workstation, and GUI component. The GUI is web-based and is viewable by a user using a web browser.

Abstract: An automated solid pharmaceutical product packaging machine includes a plurality of temporary storage members for receiving a plurality of solid pharmaceutical products in a plurality of cavities. The use of the temporary storage cavities enables the machine to process several prescriptions simultaneously. Advantageously, at least one of the temporary storage members is capable of being automatically displaced in a vertical direction in order to increase the capacity of the overall filling system for processing a greater number of solid pharmaceutical products while minimizing the overall footprint of the device.

Abstract: This invention utilizes data collected in the course of reflection seismic prospecting methods to produce a map, such as a vertical profile or a three-dimensional picture, of subterranean earth formations. This is accomplished by aplanatic mapping of received seismic wave trains in the memory unit of a computer taking into account the travel times of waves, the location of the source, the location of the receiver, and the velocity with which the waves travel from the source point to the deflecting point in the earth and from then to the receiver. The data recorded by each source receiver doublet is digitalized and stored aplanatically in the memory unit, taking into account both signs and amplitudes of the signals. The accumulated data represents a map of the earth formations. Sections of this map are plotted to provide desired views of the formations.
