Abstract: A two stage method of thawing cells from a cryopreserved state includes first warming the cells from a cryopreservation temperature to a transition temperature of at least -30° C. in a first, slow-warming stage by exposing the cells to an atmosphere having a temperature of less than 30° C., and once the cells have obtained the transition temperature, subsequently further warming the cells from the transition temperature by exposing the cells to a temperature of at least 32° C. in a second, rapid-warming stage. After the cells obtain the transition temperature in the first stage, the cells may be equilibrated at the transition temperature for a period of time prior to conducting the second stage warming. The method is particularly useful in warming cryopreserved cells attached to a fixed substrate. A thermal conduction device in association with the cryopreserved cells may also be used to further assist in the warming procedure.

Abstract: A plasma tool adapted to emit high quantum energy inert gas atoms in a stream for cutting, liquefying, or evaporating material such as human tissue during surgical procedures. The apparatus comprises a source of inert gas, a plasma cell in communication with the inert gas source for imparting energy to the inert gas atoms and defined in part by a positive electrode and a negative electrode, at least one power supply electrically connected between the positive and negative electrodes, and means for directing the high quantum energy inert gas atoms at a target. The power supply initially provides an ionization voltage between the negative and positive electrodes to initiate a plasma from the inert gas in the plasma cell, and subsequently provides a pulsed voltage curve to sustain the plasma at a predetermined energy level. Methods for using the tool, including for performing surgical procedures, are also described.

Abstract: A mounting for a disk drive unit includes a carrier for carrying a disk drive unit during required movement of the disk drive unit. The carrier defines a space into which the disk drive unit can be inserted, and the carrier is adapted to be inserted with the disk drive unit into a receiving frame for operational use. At least two resilient devices are mounted on the carrier for securing the disk drive unit in the receiving frame when the carrier is inserted into the frame, at least one resilient device being mounted on each side of the carrier. Each resilient device is movably mounted on the carrier to allow movement of the device as a whole relative to the carrier and the resilient device is arranged to secure the disk drive unit in the receiving frame by acting between the disk drive unit and the receiving frame. A method of handling the disk drive unit includes placing the disk drive unit into the carrier engaging a robotic device with a coupling structure projecting from the front of the carrier. The method then includes lifting the carrier by the robotic device and inserting the carrier into a receiving frame by a substantially horizontal movement.

Abstract: Titanium is induction melted to produce a molten mass thereof and a water-cooled crucible (10) have a nonoxidizing atmosphere and a bottom opening (22). The current to the coil (30) used for induction melting is adjusted to produce a levitation effect on the molten mass (34) in the crucible (10) to prevent the molten mass (34) from flowing out of the bottom opening (22). The molten mass (34) is also maintained out-of-contact with the crucible (10) by providing a solidified layer (36) of titanium between the molten mass (34) and the crucible (10). After production of the molten mass (34) of titanium, the current to the induction coil (30) is reduced to reduce the levitation effect and allow the molten mass (34) to flow out of the bottom opening (22) of the crucible (10) as a free-falling stream (38) of molten titanium. The free-falling stream (38) from the crucible is directed to a tundish (48) from which the molten mass flows through a nozzle (54) for atomization. The spherical particles (42) produced by atomization are cooled to solidify them and are then collected. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Controlled delivery of biologically active agents such as pharmaceuticals to body sites is accomplished by combination with a monoglyceride and a vegetable oil.

Abstract: Male sterility is imparted to a plant by a cascade of gene sequences which expresses a protein which disrupts the biosynthesis of viable pollen. Expression of the disrupter protein is restricted to male parts of the plant by an upstream promoter sequence which is specific to male flowers, the male specific promoter being under control of an operator sequence. The cascade also includes a gene encoding a repressor protein specific for that operator. Expression of the repressor protein is under control of a chemically inducible promoter which is inducible by the application to the plant by, spraying or like process, of an exogenous chemical. In the absence of the exogenous chemical inducer, no repressor protein is expressed, resulting in expression of the disrupter protein and, consequently, male sterility. Fertility may be restored to the plant, when required for maintenance of the line, by spraying with the inducer, resulting in expression of the repressor which binds the operator and inhibits expression of the disrupter protein.
