Abstract: The invention provides an intrafallopian device to
prevent conception. The efficacy of the device (10) is
enhanced by forming the structure at least in part from
copper or a copper alloy. The device (10) is anchored
within the fallopian tube by a lumen-traversing region of
the resilient structure which has a helical outer surface,
together with a portion of the resilient structure which is
biased to form a bent secondary shape, the secondary shape
having a larger cross section than the fallopian tube. The
resilient structure is restrained in a straight
configuration and transcervically inserted within the
fallopian tube, where it is released. Optionally,
permanent sterilisation is effected by passing a current
through the resilient structure to the tubal walls. A
device further includes openings between an inner and outer
surface to allow for in-growth of tissue.

Abstract: A method of separating ions comprises applying a spot of a sample material
to a target plate. The target plate is mounted in fluid communication with an ion inlet
orifice of a FAIMS analyzer region and externally to the FAIMS analyzer region.
Using a laser light source that is disposed external to the FAIMS analyzer region, the
target plate is irradiated with light of a predetermined wavelength, the light of a
predetermined wavelength being selected to affect the sample material applied to the
target plate so as to produce ions of the sample material. The ions of the sample
material are directed along an ion flow path between the target plate and FAIMS
analyzer region, via the ion inlet orifice. A flow of a gas is directed counter -current to
the ion flow path and passing through the target plate. The flow of gas through the
target plate assists in desolvation of ions and directs neutral molecules away from the
FAIMS analyzer region.
