Date Feb. 20, 1997The present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of a plastics product from a polyolefin resin using a plasticizer monomer system which is substantially non-polymerizable under the product shape forming, conditions used in the product manufacturing process and which acts as a plasticizer or processing aid under said shape forming conditions, while being substantially polymerizable subsequently so as to produce a product substantially free of liquid plasticizer. The plasticizer monomer is mixed with the polyolefin resin; and the mixture formed into a desired product form. Polymerization of the plasticizer monomer then provides a final product substantially free of liquid plasticizer.

Abstract: A method of forming an aqueous chlorine dioxide solution is disclosed which includes reacting in a reaction vessel an acid reaction solution containing a hydroxy carboxylic acid and a companion acid with an alkali metal salt of a chlorite ion. In accordance with the process, the hydroxy carboxylic acid serves to temporarily transfer chlorine from and does not form a salt with the alkali metal salt of a chlorite ion. The aqueous chlorine dioxide solution produced is substantially free of chlorous acid and preferably is free of other by-products such as sodium chloride and free chlorine. The method further includes maintaining the reaction vessel at a pH of less than 5 and/or withdrawing at least a portion of the chlorine dioxide from the aqueous chlorine dioxide solution. The method enables rapid, efficient, compact and safe generation of chlorine dioxide. A method of disinfecting water, and apparatus for making chlorine dioxide and for disinfecting water also are provided.

Abstract: A pipeline pig (10) suitable for use in cleaning deposits and buildup (104) from a pipeline (100) is also particularly suited for applications wherein the pipeline (100) has a series of bends or even right angle corners. The pig (10) is suitable for bidirectional travel, having front and rear hemispherical noses (41, 42). The pig (10) is constructed in a manner that facilitates a greater degree of elongation and deformation than is possible with known pipeline pigs, while still providing the radially outward bias that is required to effectively scrape the sidewalls of the pipeline (100). A cover (40) carries a plurality of metal studs (80) arrayed about the cylindrical middle portion (43), and encloses an internal core (60). The core (60) is formed in a mold from a mixture of resin and isocyanate, resulting in a pig having superior ability to elongate and deform, if needed, while still effectively scraping the sidewalls of the pipeline (100).

Abstract: A process for synthesis of a polymeric polyalcohol substantially and preferably built up form polyester units and composed of a monomeric or polymeric initiator molecule to which at least one dentritic branch (dendron) consisting of a number of branching generations is added. The branching generations comprise a polymericor monomeric branching chain extender having three reactive functions of which two are hydroxyl groups. The two hydroxyl groups of the ranching chain extender is acetal protected by reaction between said two hydroxyl groups and an acetal-forming carbonyl compound, preferably an aldehyde. The acetal protected branching chain extender is then employed for addition to the initiator molecule of a first branching generation followed by an optional deprotection of the hydroxyl groups by decomposition of acetals and for addition in repeated steps of further branching generations. Additions of branching generations individually employ an acetal protected branching chain extender synthesized from the same or a different branching chain extender and/or acetal-forming carbonyl compound and addition of a branching generation is optionally followed by addition of a spacing generation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for covalent immobilisation of biomolecules to carriers and membranes, wherein the presence of a His-tag is exploited, and wherein the amino acid residues that comprise said His-tag are directly involved in the covalent bond. The present invention also provides several strategies that further augment the probability of covalent immobilisation through said His-tags, such as improving the presentation of said His-tag, choosing the appropriate reaction conditions such as pH, temperature, concentration of reagent and kinetics, increasing contact between His-tag and reactive groups of said carrier or membrane, by for instance the use of IDA or anti-His antibodies or increasing the hydrophobicity of the membrane, or shielding the rest of the biomolecule from reaction by for instance increasing the hydrophobicity of said carrier or membrane or addition of substrate or competitors or blocking otherwise reactive groups, or by choosing chemical reactions that have a high selectivity for histidine residues. A carrier can also be another biomolecule. The present invention thus also relates to a method that allows covalent cross-linking between identical or different biomolecules. When such biomolecules have a natural tendency to interact with each other to form homo- or heterodimers, a strategy of increasing contact between the reactive groups (two His-tags or one His-tag and another reactive group) can be exploited. The present invention also relates to a method of providing a simultaneous and universal system for detection of biomolecules through said His-tag.

Abstract: A cap operated retractable medical device (10) has an outer body with a hinged connected outer cap (30) which moves between an open and a closed position. The device is used as a blood sampler with a conventional collection tube normally used in such devices. A movable member (40) is entirely enclosed within the outer body. A sliding interference or friction fit holds a retraction body within the mouth of the movable member, and also holds the front end of the movable member within the outer body positioned with the retraction body adjacent a stop. A double ended needle (88) is installed in the retraction body. Cam protrusions (38) on the cap engage the back of the movable member to move it forward as the cap is closed, thereby triggering retraction of the retraction body and its double ended needle entirely within the outer body. Once the cap is closed with the double ended needle safely inside, the device can be safely handled. The device is compact. It can be as short as the needles it will safely contain.

Abstract: Apparatus is described for controlling delivery of dangerous material, such as LPG, from a tanker 12 to a tank 14, through a pipe 16. A valve 18 is controlled by an arrangement 22. An operator 28 carries a radio transmitter 24 and must periodically transmit an appropriate signal to the control 22, otherwise the control 22 will time out and close the valve, also sounding an alarm. In accordance with the invention, the transmitter 24 is also provided with a timer, having a shorter count down time, and also re-set when the signal is sent to the control 22. The timer in the transmitter 24 alerts the operator 28 that a signal should be sent, giving the operator an opportunity to send a signal before the control 22 closes the valve 18. However, if the operator does not send a signal, or is incapable of doing so, the timer at 22 will assume that an emergency situation exists, and cease further delivery. <IMAGE>
