Abstract: A centrifugal separator has a plurality of substantially planar walls, including a first wall, defining a vortex chamber having an interior gas volume and for establishing at least one gas vortex in the gas volume, and the gas volume has a cross section that is distinctly non-circular, (and preferably quadrate). In addition to conventional outlets the separator includes a gas inlet having at least one elongated jet-defining wall with a free end portion extending into the gas volume a first distance from the first wall, to define a gas jet that extends substantially tangentially to the gas vortex in the gas volume. An insert extends between the jet-defining wall free end portion and the first wall and defines a gas flow direction changing surface. The insert may be substantially solid refractory material, or include a number of cooling fluids circulating tubes, and a gas flow direction changing surface may be substantially planar or curved. The first distance is typically at least 50 mm, but less than 25% of the dimension of the wall perpendicular to the first wall. The jet defining wall and the gas direction changing surface may make an angle  alpha  between 20 DEG -80 DEG  and the first distance may be between 0.2-5 times the width of the gas inlet. The height of the gas inlet is at least twice as great as its width.

Abstract: A process and a kit are provided for detecting differences in two or more samples of protein. Protein extracts are prepared, for example, from each of a different group of cell samples (1, 2) to be compared. Each protein extract is labeled with a different one of a luminescent dye from a matched set of dyes. The matched dyes have generally the same ionic and pH characteristics but emit light at different wavelengths to exhibit a different color upon luminescence detection. The labeled protein extracts are mixed together and electrophoresed together. The gel (4) is observed to detect proteins unique to one sample or present in a greater ratio in one sample than in the other. Those unique or excess proteins will fluoresce the color of one of the dyes used. Proteins common to each sample migrate together and fluoresce the same.

Date Apr. 10, 1997An MOS transistor with high output voltage endurance comprises a semiconductor substrate with the surface thereof including a doping area having a surface doping concentration decreasing from the drain connection area to the drain-side edge of the gate oxide layer. This doping area is formed by ion implantation and subsequent outdiffusion of individual partial areas. The first partial area has a size in the drain-gate extension which is considerably larger than the penetration depth of the outdiffusion in the substrate. The second partial area has a size and a distance to the first partial area which are both smaller than the penetration depth of the outdiffusion in the substrate. In the outdiffused condition, the individual diffusions originating from the individual, respectively adjacent first and second partial areas merge into each other on the surface of the substrate to thus obtain a doping concentration gradient for a constant conduction type of the doping area.

Abstract: In one aspect the purpose of the apparatus is to create a magnetic field suitable for the conditioning of security targets comprising small spring steel strips with a long permalloy backing of the type normally used in library books. This apparatus suitably comprises a row of coils which are energised progressively along the row in a time overlapped sequence. This creates a magnetic field at any point above the coils which remains substantially parallel to the target whilst the field strength decays from a magnetically saturating value to below a strength at which it has significant influence on the condition of the steel strips. <IMAGE>

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de transmission de messages dans un système de recherche de personnes à réponse automatique dans lequel une station primaire (10, 14, 16) transmet une série de messages adressés à des stations secondaires respectives (20) sur une liaison descendante. La station primaire invite alors les stations secondaires à transmettre leurs réponses telles que des signaux à accès multiple par code de répartition (AMCR) sur une liaison montante. Lors de leur réception, la station primaire analyse ces réponses qui sont jugées intelligibles et les associe aux messages de départ, puis transmet les accusés de réception aux stations secondaires correspondantes. La station primaire envoie ensuite une autre invitation aux stations dont les réponses n'avaient pas été détectées, leur demandant de répondre sur la liaison montante. Ces réponses, qui sont jugées intelligibles, sont traitées comme auparavant et les accusés de réception sont transmis avec une autre invitation sur la liaison descendante. Le cycle d'opérations se répète jusqu'à ce qu'un nombre prédéterminé de cycles se soit écoulé ou que l'on considère que toutes les réponses intelligibles ont été reçues. Ce procédé peut être conçu pour traiter des demandes de services ainsi que des réponses à des messages envoyés sur la liaison descendante.

Abstract: This invention comprises cellular vaccines and methods of using them in cancer immunotherapy, particularly in humans. The vaccines comprise a source of tumor-associated antigen, and a cytokine-secreting cell line. Tumor antigen may be provided in the form of primary tumor cells, tumor cell lines or tumor extracts prepared from the subject. In certain embodiments of the invention, the cytokine-secreting line is a separate tumor line that is allogeneic to the patient and genetically altered so as to produce a cytokine at an elevated level. Exemplary cytokines are IL-4, GM-CSF, IL-2, TNF-alpha, and M-CSF in the secreted or membrane-bound form. In these embodiments, the cytokine-producing cells provide immunostimulation in trans to generate a specific immune response against the tumor antigen. Vaccines may be tailored for each type of cancer or for each subject by mixing tumor antigen with a favorable number of cytokine-producing cells, or with a cocktail of such cells producing a plurality of cytokines at a favorable ratio.
