Granted: 2005-10-19
Abstract: Assay devices, kits, and methods for detection of one or more analytes in a sample are provided. The assay device features the controlled release of reagents and hence is particularly suitable for binding assays such as immunoassays. The assay device achieves greater sensitivity than conventional rapid test assays, leading to stronger and/or more stable visual signals than those produced by conventional devices, easier interpretation of results, and reduced occurrence of indeterminate results. The device can be used for detecting analyte in a variety of biological samples without the need for conventional sample filtration techniques, and thus is suitable for use by untrained personnel without specialized equipment. In addition, the device can be used to simultaneously analyze a number of analytes using a single sample.

Title: Procede de purification de lactames
Inventor: AMOROS DANIEL
IPC: C07D201/08

Granted: 2011-07-13
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de purification de lactames, plus particulièrement de lactames obtenus par hydrolyse cyclisante d'aminonitrile. L'invention se rapporte plus particulièrement à la purification de l'ε-caprolactame obtenu par hydrolyse cyclisante de l'aminocapronitrile consistant à éliminer l'ammoniac du milieu réactionnel d'hydrolyse puis à récupérer le lactame dudit milieu sous forme purifiée. Cette récupération est réalisée en mettant en oeuvre au moins une distillation du lactame en présence d'une base produisant éventuellement une fraction de tête comprenant des composés plus volatils que le lactame, une fraction comprenant le lactame à récupérer au degré de pureté désiré et un pied de distillation comprenant du lactame et des composés moins volatils que le lactame. Le pied de distillation est traité par différents procédés comme l'évaporation en couches minces pour récupérer la majeur partie du caprolactame contenu et recyclage de celui-ci dans le procédé de purification. L'invention permet un taux de récupération élevé du caprolactame contenu dans le milieu d'hydrolyse, tout en respectant les critères de pureté requis.

Abstract: A screwdriver (VII) used in cooperation with a connector plate (I) which has at least one screw-threaded bore (5). A sleeve (III) of a shorter length than a screw (II) is axially movable and rotatable on the screw, such sleeve having an outer end (14b) provided with a screw thread corresponding to the screw thread in the bore of the connector plate for threaded engagement therewith. The screwdriver includes a first shaft unit (40,43) arranged to have its inner end (41) engage the screw to move the screw axially and to rotate the screw. A second shaft unit (47) is axially movable and rotatable relative to the first shaft unit and is arranged to have its inner end (48) rotate the sleeve. Axial movement of the first shaft unit moves the screw engaged therewith outward relative to the sleeve so that the outer end of the screw passes through the sleeve and into the second shaft unit to a position therein such that the inner end of the screw protrudes inwardly from the inner end of the sleeve by a length such that the threaded outer end of the sleeve can be threadedly engaged with the bore of the connector plate before the screw is driven to have the inner end of the screw initially bite into the bone beyond the pre-drilled portion. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
