Title: Dispositif a electrode de dialyse
Inventor: ALBERY JOHN WYNDHAM
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 1992-09-21
Abstract: Dispositif à électrode de dialyse, comportant une tige (1) configurée à la manière d'une aiguille et formée d'une membrane fibreuse creuse de dialyse. L'extrémité distale de la tige est obturée par un bouchon obturateur (3), et son extrémité proximale est fixée de manière étanche à une chambre (6) d'un corps tubulaire (5, 20), et communique avec celle-ci. Une canalisation d'entrée (10) introduit un électrolyte dans la chambre (4) située à l'intérieur de la tige (1), et une canalisation de sortie (18) reliée à l'extrémité supérieure de la chambre (6) assure l'évacuation dudit électrolyte. Le dispositif comprend une première électrode utile ou électrode de dialyse (12) entièrement isolée à l'exception d'une longueur placée à l'intérieur de la tige creuse (1), une contre-électrode (16) et une électrode de référence (17) montées dans ladite chambre (6). Le dispositif peut être utilisé en médecine clinique et dans les industries alimentaire, pharmaceutique ou autres lorsqu'on souhaite analyser ou contrôler la présence de substances chimiques. Par exemple, lors de la réalisation d'une opération de microdialyse dans un tissu humain, on sensibilise le dispositif à l'aide d'une solution électrolytique enzymatique puis on mesure in situ la concentration d'une substance chimique se diffusant dans la chambre (4) de la tige par l'intermédiaire de la tige fibreuse de dialyse (1).

Title: Procede de triage de substances a effet modulateur d'une voie cellulaire de transmission de signaux dependant d'un recepteur
Inventor: CZERNILOFSKY ARMIN PETER
IPC: C12Q1/6897
Filed: 1992-11-25
Abstract: Selon un procédé de triage de substances ayant un effet modulateur d'une voie de transmission de signaux dépendant d'un récepteur dans des cellules de mammifères, on utilise des cellules de test transformées par un gène rapporteur et par une séquence de régulation fonctionnellement reliée à celui-ci et sensible à la concentration en IP3/DAG. Ces cellules de test sont également transformées par un ADN de codage d'un récepteur couplé au système effecteur de la phospholipase, notamment un récepteur couplé à la protéine G. L'utilisation de cellules de référence sans ADN récepteur, ainsi que de cellules de référence ayant une affinité spécifique pour le système effecteur de la cyclase d'adénylate permet d'identifier des substances ayant une activité pharmacologique potentielle et une affinité spécifique pour une voie déterminée de transmission de signaux dépendant d'un récepteur.

Date Jun. 10, 1993.A dispenser for dispensing tablets one at a time from an unarranged stock of tablets in the dispenser. The dispenser comprises a first reservoir part axially displaceable in a second reservoir part against the force of a spring (4). A trough shaped part (5,6) at the inner end of the first part forms with a partition (13) at the bottom of the second part a downward closed channel accommodating at least two tablets when the dispenser is in its neutral position. When the dispenser is operated by forcing the first part further into the second part, a bottom (7) closing the channel is passed free of the partition (13) and the lowermost tablet is dispensed. At the same time two fingers (9) are passed into the space left at the sides of the channel between the lowermost tablet and the adjacent tablet above it to ensure that only the lowermost tablet is dispensed.

Abstract: Catcher for fluid jet-cutting devices which has an insert (18) which is provided with deflection bodies (20) which cover the screening floor (19) of the said insert (18), the said catcher being filled up to the inlet gap (28) with service water. It is built into a service water circuit in the case of which service water is pumped by a pump (12) from a multi-chamber settling basin (9) via a flexible tube (14) into a free space (21) which is situated between the screen floor (19) and the catcher floor (16). The outlet (17), through which the catcher (4) is drained into a tunnel (5) which is situated on the floor (31) of a trough (2), is passed through by less service water than is delivered by the pump (12) so that the service water fills the catcher (4) up to an overflow (25). The overflow (25) leads to pocket-like chambers (34) which extend over the entire sides (24) and have a floor strip (35) which drops sharply from the inflow to the outflow side of the catcher (4) and terminates immediately in front of the end face (36) of the chamber (34). The service water with sludge which runs into the trough (2) is pumped into the multi-chamber settling basin (9) by means of a sludge pump (8). Above the catcher (4) there is situated a grating which acts as a supporting table, covers the trough and is made of strips of material, against the underside of which there rest sealing strips (29) which take the form of brush strips. The bed of water situated above the gap (28) between the sealing strips (29) is made to splash up by the impact of a jet of fluid and fills the grating chamber situated above. <IMAGE>

Arranged at a given distance thereabove is a waste gas-collecting chamber (18). It also has through-openings (21). Arranged at the intermediate space, serving as oven space (17), between the directing device (13) and the waste gas-collecting chamber (18) is in each case a heat-exchanger tube (16) which is aligned with one of the through-openings (15; 21) at the directing device and at the waste gas-collecting chamber, respectively. The edge region of each through-opening (15) of the directing device (13) is of nozzle-shaped construction, being oriented towards the oven space (18). Formed on each heat-exchanger tube (16) at a given distance from the lower end (15) is a fold which runs around it in the form of a ring and is deformed into the groove of the nozzle-shaped edge region until it comes to bear thereon. In addition, the end portion, adjoining the circumferential fold, of the heat-exchanger tube is deformed onto the raised underside of the nozzle-shaped edge region until it comes to bear thereon. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A shock sensor (20) has a housing (40) defining an axially extending bore, a reed switch (22) is centered within the bore by means of its axially extending leads (32,68) and a transverse section (42) of the housing which has an axially extending hole (44) which centers one of the leads of the reed switch with the housing. The other lead of the reed switch is centered by a first retainer (48), which is fixed within the bore to align the reed switch within the housing with the axis of the housing. An activation magnet (52), is slidably mounted within the bore of the housing, and has a central hole (76) passing over one of the axially extending leads. The magnet is biased by a spring (54) away from the end activation region of the reed switch, which is near an end (36) of the glass capsule which encloses the reed switch. The spring biases the activation magnet against a second retainer (50) so that when the housing is not undergoing acceleration the activation magnet is biased to a position where the switch is not activated. The first and second retainers and perpendicular mounting leads (88,90) are welded to the axial leads and are sealed from the atmosphere and joined to the bore of the housing by cast-in-place epoxy (94).
