switches and functions assigned to the operating
direction of a manual operating pad in a manner most
suitable to the habit and subjective bias of operators
to prevent any mistakes. The input device includes a

number of mistakes by determining, when any part of an
input unit is operated within a predetermined period of
time after another part of the input unit has been operated,
that the preceding operation is a mistake; and a controller
unit will replace the function assigned to the preceding
operating action with another function in a function table,

Abstract: The invention is a method, reagent, test cartridge and device for the determination of
fibrinogen in a sample, such as undiluted blood and blood plasma. The method utilizes a
reagent comprising thrombin and a thrombin inhibitor that slows the enzymatic conversion
of fibrinogen to fibrin, and thus slows clotting in samples. This is particularly useful for
determining fibrinogen in undiluted blood and blood plasma. Fibrinogen assay reagents
comprising at least one thrombin inhibitor and thrombin, and test cartridges containing the
reagents for automated analysis of fibrinogen are disclosed, along with automated devices
using said reagent and test cartridges for the devices.

Abstract: A method of producing hydrogen by reforming a hydrocarbon
or an aliphatic alcohol efficiently is disclosed together with
an apparatus for implementing the method. The method includes the
steps of: preparing a columnar catalytic member containing a
reforming catalyst, a shift catalyst and an oxidation catalyst,
the columnar catalytic member having a multiplicity of axial
passages; preparing a reformable gas having a hydrocarbon or an
aliphatic alcohol and water vapor mixed together; rotating the
columnar catalytic member while passing the gas therethrough
transversely to its cross section in such a manner that the gas
first flows along a forward path extending in one direction through
a first portion of the axial passages which accounts for nearly
one half of the cross section and then flows along a backward path
extending in the other direction through a second portion of the
axial passages which accounts for nearly the other half of the
cross section, thereby causing the gas to undergo reforming and
shift reactions and thereby to give rise to hydrogen for recovery
while the gas makes a round trip along the forward and backward
paths; and introducing an oxygen containing gas into the forward
path and/or the backward path.

Title: Compositions et methodes permettant de blanchir et de desensibiliser les dents
Inventor: JENSEN STEVEN D

Filed: 2001-01-30
Abstract: L'invention concerne une composition et des méthodes qui comprennent un agent de blanchiment des dents et du nitrate de potassium afin de stimuler le blanchiment et de réduire la sensibilité des dents. Le nitrate de potassium renforce la blancheur des dents, une fois l'effet de l'agent de blanchiment passé, et diminue ou élimine la sensibilité des dents que provoque d'habitude l'agent de blanchiment. Pour un traitement prolongé des dents, on a découvert que des faibles quantités de nitrate de potassium (par exemple, 0,5 %), sont plus efficaces que des grandes quantités (par exemple, 3 %). Ces compositions dentaires (40) peuvent soit être appliquées directement sur les dents, soit être chargées dans un plateau dentaire, souple et adapté, à parois minces (50), lequel est placé contre les dents. Dans ce cas, les compositions dentaires (40) contiennent un agent gluant, tel que du carboxypolyméthylène, qui aide la composition à maintenir le plateau dentaire (50) sur les dents, sous l'effet des propriétés adhésives de la composition dentaire (40) au lieu du verrouillage mécanique du plateau (50) sur les dents. Ces compositions dentaires peuvent également comporter des agents anticarieux et antimicrobiens.

Abstract: In the process and machine of the invention, two strips (A and B) of heat-weldable material are supplied, reciprocally facing one another, in an advancement direction (F). The strips are welded at predetermined welding zones and give rise to cells (4) each having at least one opening (5). A part of the welding zone which surrounds the cell (4) is cut, folded and inserted, together with the cell (4), in a forming cavity (71). A forming fluid is injected into the opening to expand the cell internally of the forming cavity. The invention enables plastic containers to be made which are free of projections in the welding zone and which have a low risk of container leakage through the welding seams on the lateral walls and on the bottom of the container. <IMAGE>
