Abstract: A reinforcing grid (10) which advantageously includes fibers of both a first type (11) and a second type (12) is provided. The first type of fibers (11) have a strength sufficient to reinforce the hardenable structural material, such as concrete, after hardening. The first type of fibers (12) also have a higher resistance to degradation in the hardenable material than the second type of fibers. As such, the first type of fibers will continue to reinforce the hardened material in the event the fibers of the second type become corroded in the hardened material. Consequently, a less expensive type of fiber can be used as the second type of fiber and can corrode in the hardenable material without concern for the strength of the hardened structural product. According to one embodiment, the first type of fibers (11) comprises carbon fibers and the second type of fibers (12) comprises glass fibers. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method to follow the progression of metastasis of a primary tumor, which method comprises removing fresh organ tissues from a vertebrate subject which has been modified to contain tumor cells that express GFP and observing the excised tissues for the presence of fluorescence is disclosed. The fluorescence can also be monitored by observing the tissues in situ. Vertebrate subjects which contain GFP producing tumors are useful models to study the mechanism of metastasis, as well as to evaluate candidate protocols and drugs. In addition, subjects already harboring tumors can be treated so as to modify the endogenous tumors to contain GFP. This permits clinical applications. Finally, by injecting a contrast dye into a subject harboring a GFP-labeled tumor, angiogenesis in the tumor can be observed directly.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a device for fixation of a bone fracture. The device comprises at least one distal pin having a mounting end for insertion on a distal side of the fracture, at least one proximal pin having a mounting end for insertion on a proximal side of the fracture, a distal member attached to the distal pins, a proximal member attached to the proximal pins and slideably connected to the distal member for reducing or distracting the bone fracture, a distraction assembly for controlling the movement between the proximal and distal members, and a removable engagement element. The distraction assembly has two modes of operation: an active configuration and an inactive configuration. In the active configuration, incremental relative sliding movement between the proximal and distal members is allowed, and, in the inactive configuration, free relative sliding movement between the proximal and distal members is allowed. The engagement element operatively engages the distraction assembly in the inactive configuration. Removal of the engagement element places the distraction assembly in the active configuration.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a family of new porphine compounds for use as colorants and/or colorant stabilizers. The new porphine compounds may be used alone as a magenta dye or may be used in combination with one or more colorants to provide light stability to colorants. The present invention further relates to inks containing the new porphine compounds and a method for making the new compounds. The present invention also relates to improved methods of making Cu-meso-tetra-(2-sulfanatophenyl)-porphine (designated o-CuTPPS4). The improved processes allow the production of o-CuTPPS4 at lower cost and higher yields compared to conventional methods of making o-CuTPPS4. The present invention further relates to the use of o-CuTPPS4 as a colorant stabilizer for a variety of colorants, especially magenta colorants. The o-CuTPPS4, according to the present invention, provides a more stable and more "blue" colorant stabilizer compared to known colorant stabilizers, such as Cu-meso-tetra-(p-phenylcarboxylic acid)-porphine.

Abstract: A magnetic torque transducer for a structure such as a disc through which torque is transmitted between a central shaft to which the disc is mounted and an outer periphery such as a gear wheel. The intervening region through which torque is transmitted is magnetized to provide a transducer element having two magnetized, annular regions which cooperate to emanate a magnetic field that is torque-dependent. The two magnetized regions may be longitudinally-magnetized through the disc or circumferentially magnetized with opposite polarities. A sensor assembly of non-contacting sensors is used to detect the emanated field and connected in circuitry to provide a torque-dependent signal. In an alternative a single magnetized annular region is employed. The annular region or regions need not be a complete annulus. The same disc-like structure can also be used as force sensor for measuring bending moments or other forces which result in stress occurring in the disc.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing waste streams wherein a slipstream is formed on the upstream side of an ultrafiltration membrane (120) to carry collected and concentrated filter reject to a microfilter (170) via a conduit (155) at low flux through the microfilter (170). The low flux allows the particles to form an irregular matrix that itself helps to trap particles. The effluent from this matrix and microfilter (170) is returned upstream of the ultrafiltration membrane (120) to be repeatedly collected and concentrated. The suspended solids removed from the reject stream and microfilter (170) are then disposed of without further processing. To improve metal ion removal efficiency, sulfide compounds, etc. can be injected upstream of ultrafiltration membrane (120). A combination of ozone and water can be used to backflush or to clean the ultrafiltration membrane (120). The backflushing water can be filtrate from the ultrafiltration membrane (120).
