摘要:
On-line density/weight measurements are made in liquid handling plant by isolating part of the plant, e.g. a tank such as an accountancy tank in nuclear fuel reprocessing plant, from the remainder of the plant in terms of force transmission and supporting the isolated part through the agency of a null-deflection weighing mechanism which cna be tared off to indicate the weight of liquid (and any solids content) occupying the isolated part of the plant.

A fluidic contactor comprising a vortex stage and a separator stage. The vortex stage is in the form of a vortex chamber whereby fluids of different densities when introduced into the chamber through one or more tangential inlets are caused to swirl through the chamber before passing into the separator stage which is in the form of a column forming an extension of an axial outlet from the vortex chamber. In passing along the column the fluids become separated and emerge through separated outlets at the end of the column remote from the chamber. The fluids can be mixed together before entry into the chamber or separate fluids can be intimately mixed together in swirling through the chamber, in each case to permit mass transfer of constituents between the fluids.

A cutting board is provided. The cutting board includes a body having a substantially planar cutting surface. The body may further include a bottom which is opposite the cutting surface. The bottom may rest on a counter top. The cutting board may further include a receptacle support. The receptacle support extends from an end of the body and is angled away from the bottom. The receptacle support includes an inner edge forming an opening in between. A bag may be secured to the receptacle support so that the opening leads into the bag. The receptacle support supports the entrance of the bag in an elevated position relative to the cutting surface to catch food materials pushed towards the opening.

An eye-fixation device is provided having an eyecup and a source of light within the eyecup. The device can further include an eyecup fixation element, a power supply, and electric, fiber-optic or chemical light sources. A control circuit can cyclically vary the intensity of the light produced by the electric light source. In a method of using the device to reduce motion of an eye during a medical procedure, an eye is selected for treatment and an eyecup is placed over the eye that is not being treated. Light is then introduced into the eyecup.

The present invention relates to use of compounds of general formula 1 for anticancerous activity, wherein the said compound being derived semi-synthetically from natural triterpenoic acids known as boswellic acids by the induction of apoptosis thereof cytotoxicity and anti-cancer activity displayed by semi-synthetic analogues of natural triterpenes, known as Boswellic acids. These compounds may be used for the treatment of cancer, alone or in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable or other carriers, displaying cytotoxicity and anti-cancer activity for colon, prostrate, liver, breast, central nervous system (CNS), leukemia and malignancy of other tissues, including ascites and solid tumors. The cancer cell death is mediated by induction of apoptosis and inhibition of cell proliferation at specific doses.

The present invention relates to an adjuvants, particularly to the use of a well-characterized plant based iridoid glycoside adjuvant from plant Picrorhiza kurroa, acting as an adjuvant against T-dependent antigen and specifically against HBsAg and typhoid antigens. The present invention also relates to the method of producing the iridoid glycoside adjuvant and the products utilizing such adjuvants for induction of cellular immunity. The adjuvants may be used alone or with specific antigens. The two antigens used in the study represents HBsAg, a recombinant antigen expressed in Pichia pastoris, and typhoid Vi polysaccharide purified from Salmonella typhi broth. These antigens are studied for their immunogenicity with the adjuvant iridoid glycoside adjuvant
摘要:
A bedding system is provided which includes a mattress and a sheet, wherein the sheet is adjustably securable to the mattress using opposing hook and pile fastener strips. A continuous hook and pile fastener strip is affixed to the peripheral edge of the mattress and is engaged by sets of opposing hook and pile fastener strips affixed to the bed sheet. The hook and pile fastener strips releasably secure the bed sheet to the mattress.

An underseat storage bin is used with a pivotable vehicle bench seat in a vehicle having a floor surface. The bench seat is pivotable between a horizontal seating position and an upright stowed position for providing access beneath the seat. The bench seat is supported on seat support members at opposing ends. The storage bin includes a blow-molded bin structure having first and second ends removably attachable to the seat support members. The bin structure includes a plurality of generally vertical compartment walls arranged to form a plurality of storage compartments. At least one of the storage compartments extends substantially the entire length of the bench seat for storing long items. The compartment walls form open bottoms therebetween, such that the vehicle floor surface forms the bottom of each storage compartment for supporting items stored in the storage bin.

In apparatus for mixing and then separating different flow streams, such as solvent extraction apparatus, a cascade of contactors and jet pumps are arranged in counter-current flow mode. The same one flow stream is applied to the drive port of each jet pump in the cascade and the other flow stream is applied to the suction port of each jet pump in the cascade. The jet pumps in the cascade increase in size from a high pressure to a low pressure end of the cascade so that the suction pressure required at successive jet pumps is reduced.
