In a strip of test material (1) comprising an open-pored fibre structure a reagent film mass (6) is embedded from an application side (1a) in such a way that it extensively penetrates into the pores of the carrier material. The reagent film mass (6) is smoothed on the opposite side (1b) by the relative motion of the ribbon and a smoothing tool (4) in such a way that the pores of the composite fibre structure are spanned by the reagent film mass (6). Finally, the carrier material ribbon (10) thus produced is dried essentially free of contact.

Abstract: A method of removing hydrocarbons from contaminated solids comprises exposing the solids in an extractor chamber (12) to a solvent for the oil, such as toluene or other stabilised gasoline fraction. The solvent thus dissolves the oil, and the solids may then be separated from the solvent with the oil dissolved therein. Alternatively the solids and solvent may be formed into a slurry in an agitating vessel and them pumped to a solid bowl decanting centrifuge (26) from which the solids are fed to a dryer (18).

Abstract: Mutant B. lentus DSM 5483 proteases are derived by the replacement of at least one amino acid residue of the mature form of the B. lentus DSM 5483 alkaline protease. The mutant proteases are expressed by genes which are mutated by site-specific mutagenesis. The amino acid sites selected for replacement are identified by means of a computer based method which compares the three dimensional structure of the wild-type protease and a reference protease.

Abstract: An implantable active fixation lead system which connects a source of electrical energy, such as a pacemaker, to the cardiac tissue. The lead system includes a lead, an introducer and a guide catheter. The lead has a small diameter lead body, and an active fixation device for engaging the cardiac tissue. The lead body has an overall straight, uncoiled configuration, and an outer diameter of about 13 mils. The lead body includes a plurality of infinitesimal, bio-compatible, bio-stable electrically conductive strands which are tightly bundled together in a cable-like fashion to form a single conductor. A dielectric bio-compatible insulation coating surrounds the conductor to provide an insulation layer between the conductor and the body environment. The fixation device includes a crank portion which engages the introducer. The introducer is assembled to the lead and includes a coupler which engages the crank portion of the lead fixation device. The coupler includes a closely wound coil, and an elongated generally cylindrical tip engaging member having an aperture which acts as an entranceway for the lead fixation device. The coupler retains and firmly engages the lead crank portion, and controls its engagement to, and disengagement from the cardiac tissue. Furthermore, the coupler prevents the lead active fixation device for overperforating the cardiac tissue. A catheter is assembled to the lead and the introducer, for imparting stiffness and improved steerability to the lead.

Abstract: Insulating caps are intended to have a construction of the cured synthetic resin compound that is as homogeneous as possible, and a high disruptive electrical strength. A firm seating on the bar connection or end lead is to be guaranteed over the entire lifetime, the caps being capable of economic production and of being mounted in a technically efficient fashion. The insulating cap, which is fixed on the bar connection or end lead by means of a reactively curable synthetic resin mixture, has an outer jacket which consists of two or more individual parts extruded independently of one another and connected to one another. In an advantageous embodiment, this is bipartite, consisting of an extruded sleeve (1) and extruded base (2), there being arranged in the interior of the sleeve (1) a filling duct (3) which is provided with an inlet opening (5), and the sleeve (1) being provided with an outlet opening (7), depending on the mounting position. Consequently, the insulating cap can be installed in any mounting position with the inclusion of a seal (6), it being the case that a synthetic resin mixture which can be cured reactively in an appropriately thixotropic fashion and the design configuration of the outer jacket produce a defined filling of the insulating cap which after curing guarantees the mechanical and electrical strength of the insulating cap, e.g. the interlocking joints on hydroelectric generators. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A sustained-release microsphere produced by enclosing a hydrophobic antipsychotic such as bromperidol or haloperidol in a base comprising a biocompatible polymer such as polylactic acid or a lactic acid/glycolic acid copolymer. It can exhibit a desired pharmacological effect, where a long-term administration is necessary, by injecting once every 1 to 8 weeks instead of every day. As a result, a remarkable improvement can be expected in the compliance during maintenance therapy. In addition, the use of the biocompatible polymer serves to entirely dispense with surgical operations such as implantation, facilitates hypodermic and intramuscular injection just like the case of suspending injection, and can dispense with the widrawal of the microsphere. Furthermore, the microsphere can be administered with little aversion and pain.
