Abstract: An electrical connector assembly of the present invention comprises
a socket (2) for supporting two pairs of first electrical connector elements
(13) in proximity; a plug (3) for supporting two pairs of second electrical
connector elements (30), which are to be engaged with the two pairs of
first electrical connector elements (13), respectively; two short-circuit
elements (4), fitted in the socket (2), for electrically short-circuit the two
pairs of first electrical connector elements (13), respectively; and a locking
element (5) which is locked at a first position with respect to the plug (3)
and, when the plug (3) is engaged in the socket (2), becomes movable to
a second position at which the locking element (5) forces the two
short-circuit elements (4) to move back to their non-short-circuit positions
simultaneously. This can provide an electrical connector assembly having
a locking part that can provide a drastically improved working efficiency
and thus provide excellent connection workability even when two pairs of
electrical contacts are connected with each other.

Abstract: A system and method for a computer-implemented auction in which multiple types of items are auctioned together without imposing a particular division of supply or demand among the individual types of items. In some embodiments the auction (30) provides a means or method for establishing prices for the types of items, therein the prices maintain a relationship. In other embodiments, the present invention provides a means or method for implying prices from price parameters in the bids received from bidders (20a, 20b, 20c), based on a relation among the prices for the types of items. Market clearing may be defined by the condition that the aggregate quantity bid for all types of items is less than or equal to the available quantity of all types of items. The division among the types of items within is thus determined flexibly, based on the bids at the associated prices. In other embodiments, market clearing is defined by the condition that the quantity bid for one selected type of item is less than or equal to the available quantity of the selected type of item. The quantities of the other types of items are thus determined flexibly, based on the bids at the associated prices.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé automatisé de correction d'interférences avec les résultats de chimie du sang sur du plasma ou du serum sanguins au moyen d'une analyse hématologique automatisée d'un échantillon de sang total. Une telle erreur d'interférence est due à la présence de succédanés sanguins exogènes porteurs d'oxygène dans des échantillons de sang transfusé. Ce procédé automatisé est mis en oeuvre au moyen d'une analyse hématologique automatisée afin de corriger les erreurs dues à l'interférence dans la détermination de chimies du sang afin de donner une quantification de ces paramètres de manière directe, rapide et automatique. Ce procédé automatisé de correction d'interférence s'utilise de manière avantageuse à des fins médicales et cliniques à la suite de transfusions de patients avec des succédanés sanguins après un traumatisme ou lors d'une opération chirurgicale, et pour le contrôle périodique ou suivi des échantillons de sang des patients pendant leur rétablissement. Ce procédé peut également être utilisé pour corriger toute hémolyse in vivo, ou hémolyse en tube collecteur si les résultats de la chimie et les valeurs de mesure cellule par cellule sont obtenues à partir de sang provenant du même tube collecteur.

Abstract: A composition, process and method is disclosed of decreasing mammalian upper respiratory system airway resistance by administering an aerosolized mixture of lipid crystals comprised of a mixture of one or more lipids surfactants and one or more spreading agents selected from the group consisting of sterols, lipids, fatty acids, cholesteryl esters, phospholipids, carbohydrates, and proteins, in powder form, and one or more propellants, in which the lipid surfactants and spreading agents are not soluble, through a mammalian external airway orifice. Upon administration, the propellant(s) are evaporated from the mixture and the lipid crystals are deposited upon the air/liquid interface resident upon the epithelial lining of the upper respiratory system forming an amorphous spread film thereupon substantially decreasing the resistance to air flow through said upper respiratory system. In a second preferred embodiment, a therapeutically active agent effective in the treatment of upper respiratory disease is added to the mixture of lipid crystals and upon administration of said aerosol mixture, the amorphous spread film formed thereby carries said therapeutically active agent throughout the tissues of the upper respiratory system. In an alternate preferred embodiment, the afore-mentioned reduction of surface tension and delivery of therapeutically active agents is provided by a mixture of lipid crystals comprised of surfactant(s), therapeutically active agents and a propellant in which such other components are not soluble.
