Inventor: MINUTH WILL
IPC: C12M3/06
Filed: 1999-11-03
Abstract: System for the cultivation and/or differentiation and/or preservation of cells and/or tissue has at least one culture container (6) which forms a closed chamber with at least one cultivation zone (13,14) and at least one inlet/outlet (16) for the culture or processing medium. The cultivation zone is surrounded with a capillary netting or a matrix of a material (17) for the culture medium.  The material of the capillary netting fills the chamber totally or partially. The capillary netting material has a hydrophilic character to retain fluids as a fiber or nonwoven material, or a sponge or. The material for the capillary netting is of cellulose or paper. The fibers are cladded with an active ingredient, by immersion or coating, to delay the degrading action using contained and/or coatings of barrier and auxiliary matter. A part-chamber is formed on both sides of the cultivation zone (13,14). The culture container (6) is formed from a plate-shaped base component (12), flanked by cover or cap container sections (10,11). A number of part-chambers can be formed on one side of the plate. A dosing system delivers and/or extracts the active ingredient at the culture medium, using at least one channel with a permeable wall where the culture medium flows through. It is located in a zone where the ingredient can be introduced and removed, using one container section (11) where the channel runs through it with a hose or tube around the channel or forming the channel. The culture medium flows through a chamber, to be stabilized and its gas to be separated and collected in an upper gas zone. A connecting cap links a hose pipe to the supply bottle for the culture medium, in a sealed connection, which is also the connection for other functional units. Independent claims are also included for: (1) a culture container, with a heater for one or more of its chambers. The capillary netting or the interior zone of a matrix material is of an isolated material prepared naturally or chemically of extra-cellular matrix proteins. The matrix is of a chain material of recombinant proteins produced by biotechnology from extra-cellular matrix components. Sequences of information or pattern matter or peptide sequences are built into the chains; and (2) a dosing system to augment the culture medium, and a chamber to stabilize the culture medium and separate out any contained gas.

Abstract: A semiconductor circuit for compressing or encoding
output data of a scan path circuit (F11,F12), is able to
realize a circuit test and fault analysis by the scan path
circuit, and is capable of preventing the configuration of
a combinational circuit (C11) from being guessed from the
input and output. Predetermined mode key data is input by
being mixed in input data (Sin1,Sin2) to the scan path
circuit (F11,F12) during a scan mode operation so as to be
fetched by a mode key circuit embedded in the scan path
circuit (F11,F12). The mode key data is fetched by a mode
holding circuit (M11) from the mode key circuit and a mode
key signal (BE) is generated in accordance with the mode
key data during a system mode operation. When the mode key
data has a predetermined pattern, the mode key signal (BE)
becomes a predetermined set value, and an output signal
(Soutl,Sout2) of the scan path circuit (F11,F12) is output
by an encoding circuit (B11) as it is in accordance
therewith. Otherwise, since the output signal of the scan
path circuit (F11,F12) is encoded and output by the
encoding circuit (B11), the output of the scan path circuit
can be concealed as required.

Abstract: L'augmentation du niveau de recouvrement à un niveau supérieur à environ 90 % pour un polycarbonate à fusion de qualité optique (QO) réduit de manière significative la charge statique se produisant au moulage pour des pièces moulées par injection pour des applications de disque optique. L'utilisation de résines avec des niveaux de recouvrement supérieurs en combinaison avec des additifs antistatiques permet d'obtenir une formulation hautement résistante apte même aux formats nouveaux les plus exigeants tels que le disque numérique polyvalent (DVD) et dans toutes les machines de moulage de support optique commercial. Ainsi les polycarbonates de qualité optique sont préparés par polymérisation catalysée par une base d'un carbonate diarylique et d'un phénol dihydrique dans des conditions efficaces pour produire un produit de polycarbonate présentant un niveau de recouvrement de 90 % ou davantage.
