Abstract: A system is provided for draining an anesthetic agent from a reservoir of an anesthetic vaporizer. The system includes an anesthetic agent container having an inlet into which the agent can drain. The vaporizer has a draining station that defines an outlet and that defines a drain passage between the vaporizer reservoir and the outlet. A valve is operable to open and close the drain passage. A connector is provided with a receiving end for connecting to the draining station at the outlet. The connector has a discharge end for connecting to the container inlet. The connector holds the container below the draining station outlet and defines a transfer passage between the receiving end and the discharge end for draining the agent from the draining station into the container. Structural key configurations, uniquely associated with a specific anesthetic, are preferably provided at the connection of the container and connector and at the connection of the draining station and connector.

Abstract: Solanum stenotomum ,  Solanum phureja  and  Solanum
goniocalyx , which are diploid potatoes native to the
Andes, are crossed by open pollination, thereby forming
a hybrid population rich in genetic variation. The
hybrid population is raised while screening the hybrid
population on the basis of selection criteria including
a yield thereof, thereby reconstituting the hybrid
population. The reconstituted hybrid population is
raised for seedlings under short-day light conditions
while limiting a rhizosphere thereof and controlling
the growth at a slightly lower temperature during a
potato-tuber growing period. A mini-potato edible
whole (including skin) in one bite can be thus obtained.

Abstract: A device to detect magnetic resonance in the time domain that
includes a radiofrequency (RF) source (46), having an output connected
to a transmitter (47) the output of which is fed to a probe-preamplifier
(48). The signal output of the probe-preamplifier is connected to the
input of a filter (49) the output of which is connected to the input of
a phase-sensitive detector (50). Another input of the phase-sensitive
detector is connected to a second output of the RF source (46), with the
output of the phase-sensitive detector being connected to the input of a
digitizer (51). The output of the digitizer is connected to a computer
(52). The device of the present invention works on the basis of phase
coherent frequency switching, making use of the fact that signal
excitation and detection occur in distinct time intervals in time domain
magnetic resonance experiments. In operating the device of the present
invention, the transmitter is positioned at the centre of the spectral
window; after the pulse irradiation at this frequency to excite the
sample, the receiver reference frequency is shifted phase coherently,
during the receiver dead time, by one half the desired spectral width,
to coincide with one extreme of the spectral window.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un revêtement anti-marques (46) destiné à être utilisé sur le rouleau de transfert (44) d'une presse à imprimer, pour éviter les marques d'encre sur des feuilles imprimées (42). Ledit revêtement est constitué d'un matériau présentant une grande perméabilité à l'air dans le sens axial et parallèlement à sa surface et une structure de surface sensiblement uniforme exempte de zones en relief. Un matériau préféré correspond à un non-tissé 100 % rayonne à enchevêtrement des fibres par jets d'eau, soumis à un formage par compression de cylindre à pointes MICREXTM pour obtenir des zones microcrêpées très peu espacées les unes des autres, d'environ 1/16ème de pouce. Le tissu préféré possède une perméabilité à l'air dans le sens axial de 0,279 pieds3/mn environ. Lorsque le matériau (46) est enroulé bien serré autour d'un rouleau de presse (44), sa haute perméabilité à l'air dans le sens axial permet de maintenir une couche d'air (40) sous les feuilles imprimées (42), et la structure de surface uniforme est alors exempte de points hauts pouvant traverser la couche (40) et venir au contact des feuilles imprimées (42).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un mélange d'air et de pâte (36) obtenu à partir du papier recyclé à partir duquel les particules d'encre ont été chimiquement enlevées et injecté dans un bac (22) cylindrique de traitement. Les tensioactifs ajoutés créent une mousse (40) à partir de l'air, lorsque ce dernier remonte dans la pâte (36) et provoque l'adhésion des particules d'encre aux bulles d'air, ce qui entraîne la formation d'une mousse contenant une fraction concentrée de particules d'encre contenant quelques fibres. La mousse monte jusqu'à la partie supérieure (43) du bac (22) et transporte avec elle des particules d'encre. Des orifices (53) d'injection d'air supplémentaires peuvent être utilisés pour augmenter la quantité de mousse générée et la quantité d'encre enlevée. On peut réguler l'écoulement de la pâte (36) et de la mousse (42) à partir du récipient (22) en réglant les vannes (70) sur la pâte (34) et les sorties (44, 56) de mousse. Des détecteurs (60) de flottation permettent de maintenir la surface de mousse au niveau de la pâte au moyen de la régulation du débit (42) auquel la mousse est extraite à travers les sorties (44, 56) de mousse.

In another aspect, the stabilized emulsion polymer includes an oxyalkylene functional monomer selected from the group consisting of: monoesters of mono- and dicarboxylic acids, diesters of dicarboxylic acids, and mixtures thereof; wherein R is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and C1-C4 alkyl; R' is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and C1-C4 alkyl; R'' is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and C1-C4 alkyl; and n is an integer ranging from 1 to 30. The oxyalkylene functional monomer reacts with the monomer and thus becomes incorporated into the backbone of the emulsion polymer.

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un clapet à basculement pour bombe aérosol comportant une tige (18) creuse, intégralement moulée, et une coupelle (19) conique, moulée, associée à ladite tige. Un bord périphérique, externe, supérieur de ladite coupelle assure une parfaite étanchéité, en position normale, mais pas lorsque le clapet est incliné, en s'appuyant contre un joint d'étanchéité entourant la tige. La paroi inférieure et externe de la tige et la paroi interne de la coupelle définissent un espace annulaire. Au moins un orifice moulé de dosage, disposé sous le bord supérieur de la coupelle associée à la tige, prolonge l'espace annulaire à travers la tige. Cette tige est moulée de façon à comporter un évidement annulaire disposé autour de son extrémité inférieure et, au minimum, un orifice de dosage. La tige moulée est introduite dans une cavité de moule. Une partie inférieure d'un écran annulaire bloque l'orifice de dosage et définit, avec la cavité de moule et la partie inférieure de la tige, la forme de la coupelle. Cette dernière est moulée de façon à présenter une protubérance annulaire en saillie dans l'évidement annulaire de façon à constituer un ensemble solide et totalement intégré comportant une tige et une coupelle et fonctionnant comme une seule pièce. La partie inférieure de l'écran sert également à définir l'espace annulaire.
