Abstract: The female connector is formed from a sheet of thickness less than 0.3 mm which is folded into a cage at the front and to form a connector for a conductor at the rear. Each upper half-wall is folded by 180 degrees to make an internal contact strip (29). The side walls are folded (46-55) to create, by means of a 180 degrees fold (46), a flexing on the strip in the relaxed position and, by a rebate (55), a limit the elastic deformation of the strip when the male connector is inserted. Folds in the sides converge to prevent the insertion of a male connector of inappropriate size. Openings (50) in the walls allow insertion and locking of the connector into an insulated sleeve.

Each single channel is connected to a feedline for a cleaning and/or disinfecting agent and is flushed separately. The single channels which merge in the endoscope into a common channel part (6, 7) are flushed one after the other. Advantageously, if single channels of mutually different passage width are flushed simultaneously, an additional flow restriction is arranged in at least the feedline connected to the channel with the greater passage width. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to methods and compositions for site-specific recombinase-mediated mobilization of viral replicons and associated DNAs of interest from T-DNA. The methods of the invention comprise Agrobacterium-mediated transfer of T-DNA to a plant cell, wherein the T-DNA contains a viral replicon flanked by directly repeated target sites for a site-specific recombinase and optionally a DNA of interest linked to the viral replicon. The DNA of interest may also contain a non-identical target site for the recombinase. An expression cassette for the site-specific recombinase is present on the T-DNA or the plant genome, or is transiently introduced into the plant cell. Expression of the site-specific recombinase in the plant cell results in excision of the viral replicon and the associated DNA of interest. The viral replicon and DNA of interest are then replicated to high copy number in the host plant cell.

Abstract: By a method for coating a core body (12), preferably a core body of aluminium, in kitchen utensils, various layers (14, 16, 18, 20, 22) of hard ceramic powder of one or more materials are first applied by means of plasma spraying. An antiadhesion layer (124) is applied to the ceramic layer or layers (14, 16, 18, 20, 22) established of hard ceramic powder material by plasma spraying in one or more steps. By the method the last applied ceramic layer (22) is established by using a hard ceramic powder of a smaller average grain size compared with the other ceramic powder layers, preferably in such a way that the average grain size of the individually applied layers (14, 16, 18, 20, 22) of hard ceramic powder decreases from the core body (12) towards the antiadhesion layer (124). The antiadhesion layer (24) is established by applying, on the latest applied ceramic layer which is established by means of a hard ceramic powder having an average grain size of between 5 and 20 µm, a pigment containing primer enamel containing between 5 and 20%, such as between 10 and 15%, preferably approximately 15% colour pigment by weight and furthermore between 5 and 20%, such as between 10 and 15%, e.g. 15% antiadhesion pigments also by weight, whereas the remainder is constituted by bonding agent, and after the appliance of the pigment containing primer enamel in a wet-wet appliance system, a pigment containing baking enamel containing between 5 and 20%, such as between 10 and 15%, preferably approximately 10% colour pigment by weight and furthermore between 70 and 95%, such as between 75 and 85%, e.g. 80-85% antiadhesion pigments, also by weight, whereas the remainder is constituted by the bonding agent of the baking enamel. Hereby, compared with known methods for coating a core body in kitchen utensils, a better adhesion of the antiadhesion layer to the ceramic layer and, furthermore, a more uniform and cavity free surface of the antiadhesion layer are achieved when as a last ceramic layer a fine-grained ceramic layer is established for providing a close, uniform and smooth ceramic surface without actual cavities.

Abstract: A drogue capable of being inserted into a water pipe and comprising a flexible bar in which are a pressure sensor, a battery pack, an electronics assembly and a magnetometer. The bar is surrounded by a bladder with an inlet valve at the front and an outlet valve at the rear. The drogue is attached to a suitable cable so that electrical signals can be conveyed to a computer to enable leaks within the water pipe to be identified and the position of the drogue identified. Also presented is a corresponding method which derives signals relating to volumetric flow for a series of locations in a conduit, in order to detect leakage and determine locations of such leakage, by measuring flow effects around a (moveable) large body and also measuring flow effects around a (moveable) small body at each location (the two bodies capable of being moved together thru the conduit at a set distance apart). The method is also practiced by measuring the differential pressures around each of the two bodies, as well as detecting localized turbulences, to derive information relating to volumetric flow rate at positions along the conduit.

Abstract: The present invention provides an improved solid state fermentation device that combines all of the operations of microorganism cultivation (sterilization, inoculation, cultivation, extraction, and post extraction treatment). This solid state fermentation device is modular in nature and operates in a contained manner so that the live microorganisms from the reactor cannot come into contact with the environment and pollute the environment and also so that the environment inside the bioreactor is aseptic. Another aspect of this invention allows fermentation of microorganisms without inhibiting the growth of the microorganism. Specifically, the bioreactor is designed to remove heat that accumulates inside the bioreactor during fermentation by conduction. Additionally, there is a mechanism to add fluid to the interior of the bioreactor that permits equal distribution and precise control of a variety of environmental parameters. For example, the bioreactor of the present invention provides a means to add nutritive media to the microorganisms at any time during the fermentation process without disturbing the fermenting microorganisms. Furthermore, the bioreactor of the present invention provides a mechanism to mix the contents of the bioreactor at any time and for any duration during the fermentation process. Finally, the present bioreactor provides a means of extracting desired microbial products from the bioreactor without opening the bioreactor.

Abstract: A method for mixing a pulverulent material in a main gas flow with a view to achieving uniform distribution of the pulverulent material. The turbulence in the main gas flow is increased in a vortex-generating zone. The pulverulent material is introduced into the main gas flow, in a mixing zone, with a carrier gas flow whose net motion during introduction is essentially opposite to the main gas flow. The mixing zone is positioned downstream of the vortex-generating zone and in the vicinity thereof. The carrier gas flow with the pulverulent material is in a rotational zone given a helical motion, whose axis of symmetry is essentially parallel with the direction of flow of the main gas flow, and is introduced into the mixing zone in the form of a divergent hollow cone. A device for carrying out the method comprises a gas duct (1) for the main gas flow with vortex-generating means (4) and an introducing means (11) for introduction of pulverulent material in dispersed state into a carrier gas flow. The introducing means (11) comprises a cylindrical pipe (13) with an open and a closed end, a tangential inlet (17) in the vicinity of the closed end of the cylindrical pipe (13), and a divergent axial outlet (18) at the open end of the cylindrical pipe comprising a truncated conical jacket (14) and a centered insert (16) adjacent to the axial outlet so adapted that an annular opening (19) forms between the truncated conical jacket (14) and the insert (16).
