Abstract: Process for the polymerization of ethylene or of ethylene with further 1 -olefins, in which the ethylene is polymerized in the presence of a catalyst in a gas-phase reactor and reaction gas comprising propane and unpolymerized ethylene is circulated to remove the heat of polymerization, wherein the polymer particles are discharged continuously or discontinuously from the reactor, the polymer particles are separated from the major part of the concomitantly discharged gas and the polymer particles are degassed, the gas is freed of entrained fine particles and is separated from a low-boiling fraction comprising ethylene or from a high boiling fraction containing further 1-olefins or alkanes having from 4 to 12 carbon atoms in a first separation stage, a propane fraction is separated off in a second separation stage and this propane fraction is used for degassing the polymer particles discharged from the reactor, with the proportion of ethylene in the propane fraction being less than 1 mol% and the proportion of 1-olefins and alkanes having from 4 to 12 carbon atoms in the propane fraction being less than 4 mol%, in each case based on the total propane fraction. Furthermore, an apparatus for carrying out the process. In this way, a high heat discharge from the reactor, satisfactory degassing of the discharged polymer particles and recovery of the reaction gas discharged together with the polymer particles and also the gas used for degassing the polymer particles are made possible.

Abstract: Scanning of a microarray is performed through a mask that exposes a plurality, but not all, of the sites of the microarray, and either the mask is movable relative to the microarray or the microarray is movable relative to the mask, or both. The mask is useful as a means of restricting the illumination of sites on the microarray to those that can be illuminated while the scan head is traveling at a steady, target velocity, blocking the passage of light between the scan head and the microarray at those points in the scan head trajectory where the scan head is either accelerating or decelerating. The mask is also useful for reducing background noise in the microarray image by preventing light spillage to sites adjacent to those being scanned.

Abstract: The presence of a first human fingerprint at the fingerprint scanner. The first human fingerprint is analyzed to determine whether the first human fingerprint has been previously learned by the barrier movement operator. When the first human fingerprint is determined to be previously learned, a first command is sent to actuate a moveable barrier operator. Within a predetermined time period after the first human fingerprint has been determined to be previously learned, the presence of a second human fingerprint is sensed at the fingerprint scanner.

Patent CA-2639379-A1 (CA)
Title: Flexible surgical probe
Inventor: AULD JACK R
IPC: A61F9/009
Filed: 2008-09-02
Abstract: A probe having a flexible, small diameter fiber sheathed in a small diameter flexible tube comprising the distal tip of the probe. The small diameters of the fiber and tube allow the fiber to be bent in a tighter radius along essentially the entire length of the exposed portion of the fiber, with low tube bending forces during insertion, providing a compact design which eliminates the need for a straight distal portion. The small diameter tube also allows a greater wall thickness outer cannula to be used, thereby increasing instrument rigidity. This compact, rigid design with low insertion forces allows the fiber greater access to the internal posterior structures of the eye, while providing increased instrument rigidity for manipulation of the eye, as well as low insertion forces.
