Abstract: In a method of removing volatile oxidizable compounds from particles present in a container, a gas stream is continuously introduced into the container, the gas stream takes up the oxidizable compound from the particles in the container and a gas stream laden with the oxidizable compound is discharged from the container. In the method of the present invention, oxygen is added to the gas stream which has been discharged and the oxidizable compound present in the discharged gas stream is subsequently at least partly catalytically oxidized by means of the oxygen and this oxidized gas stream forms at least part of the gas stream introduced, so that the gas stream is circulated. This makes safe and inexpensive removal of the oxidizable compounds from the particles possible.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a container and a method for cooling the container contents by microwave radiation. The container ( 10 ) includes a lid ( 20 ), at least one integrated electrical cooler ( 70 ), at least one integrated microwave receiving rectenna ( 50 ), and at least one integrated microwave shield ( 60 ) for shielding microwaves from reaching the interior of the container ( 10 ). The invention also relates to the method of cooling including the steps of sealing the container ( 10 ) through closing the container lid ( 20 ), and applying microwave radiation onto the outer surfaces of the container by utilizing a microwave oven. The container incident microwaves are received and converted into direct-current voltage through the rectenna ( 50 ), which powers the electrical cooler ( 70 ) for cooling the interior of the container ( 10 ) and its contents.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for preparing a composition for use in suppressing graft versus host disease in an individual receiving a transplant preparation.  In course of the method an extracorporeal quantity of blood from the intended transplant recipient is treated by causing the blood to flow through an apparatus having plastic channels to induce monocytes contained in the blood to differentiate into dendritic cells. The dendritic cells are treated to truncate the maturation of the dendritic cells at a stage where the dendritic cells Induce suppression of an immune system response. The dendritic cells are combined with a transplant preparation derived from the intended transplant donor. The dendritic cells from the intended recipient are then co-incubated with the transplant preparation from the transplant donor, Finally a medicament is prepared for administering the co-incubated dendritic cells and transplant preparation to the intended transplant recipient.

Abstract: Delays for a RAKE receiver are selected by searching a plurality of multi-paths to select a set of multi-path delays associated with the highest signal to interference ratios (SIRs) and/or power values. The respective SIR values and/or power values for the multi-path delays are averaged over a time interval and the averaged SIR values and/or power values are multiplied by a scaling factor so as to reduce the averaged SIR values and/or power values. Those multi-path delays from the set of multi-path delays and a previous set of multi-path delays that have SIR values and/or power values greater than a threshold value are selected to generate a monitored set of multi-path delays. The SIR values and/or power values associated with the monitored set of multi-path delays are filtered and at least one multi-path delay from the monitored set of multi-path delays is eliminated as being correlated with another multi-path delay of the monitored set of multi-path delays to generate an output set of multi-path delays. The output set of multi-path delays are provided to a RAKE receiver.
