royalty-free basis. Applicants for licenses should apply to the Chief,

Commission, Washington 25, D. C., identifying the subject matter by
patent number and title.
Patent No.: 2,737,779
Title:       Condensable Vapor Extraction Apparatus
Issued:      March 13, 1956
Inventor:    E. 0. Lawrence
This patent relates to a device for obtaining a very high
vacuum in a large tank. The pumping out operation is considerably ex-
pedited when the vacuum pump is augmented by a condensable vapor extrac-
tion trap. This trap, containing a coolant such as liquid air or liquid
nitrogen, located in the tank condenses out much of the contained vapor,
thereby substantially halving the time required for pumping out. Here-
tofore, these traps containing the condensed vapors have remained in
the tank necessitating the constant addition of coolant to keep the
vapors condensed. This device permits the removal of such a trap
after the desired vacuum has been obtained and seals the opening
after removal thus eliminating the need of constantly adding the
expensive coolant during the period the vacuum is maintained, which
may be many days.
Patent No.: 2,738,346
Title-       Method for the Separation of Flavonoid Compounds
Issued:      March 13, 1956
Inventors:   S. H. Wender, C. H. Ice
This patent relates to an improved method of separating
closely related flavonoid compounds. The method comprises passing a
solution of the compounds, such as a mixture of xanthorhamnin, rutin,
and quercetin dissolved in a low molecular weight anhydrous aliphatic
organic solvent, such as acetone, through a column of comminuted
hydrous magnesium silicate adsorbent, then chromatographically
eluting the resulting adsorbed compounds from the silicate material
by means of an aqueous relatively low molecular weight organic
solvent, such as an ethyl acetate solution saturated with water
and containing a trace of acetic acid, and separately collecting
the resulting individual flavonoid compounds.
