Abstract: Object of the invention is an anodic structure for mercury cathode cells for the industrial electrolysis of sodium chloride. The new structure is constituted by a grid array comprising a multiplicity of vertically disposed and mutually parallel titanium blades, covered by an electrocatalytic coating specific for the discharge of chlorine. The ratio between the thickness and the height of the blades is comprised between 1:16 and 1:100 and the ratio between the surface of free passage between the blades and the projected surface is comprised between 15:17 and 25:30. The new grid array is perpendicularly fixed to new or existing frames having the function of mechanical support and current conduction to the grid array. Scope of the invention is simultaneously reducing the energetic consumption of the cell and the costs for restoring the exhausted electrocatalytic coating.

Abstract: Identifying microbes causing infection in clinical specimens in which phagocytes are isolated from the clinical specimen and immobilized. The phagocytes are then treated to enhance their membrane permeability with lysostaphin, lysozyme, N-acetylmuramidase, or zymolase. The exposed DNA is then hybridized with a DNA probe. Identifying microbes causing infection in clinical specimens in which phagocytes are isolated from the clinical specimen and immobilized. The phagocytes (5 x 10 6> to 1 x 10 8> cells/ml) are then treated to enhance their membrane permeability, by treatment with lysostaphin (1-1000 U/ml), lysozyme (10 3> to 10 6> U/ml), N-acetylmuramidase (10 to 10 4> U/ml) or zymolase (50-500 U/ml). The treated phagocytes, in which DNA derived from the infective microorganism and contained within the phagocyte is exposed, is then hybridized with a DNA probe (0.1 to 22 ng/mu l) (350-600 bases in length) hybridizing stringently to the microbial DNA, in the presence of a surfactant. An independent claim is included for kits for carrying out the method, containing the treatment enzyme and the DNA probe.

Abstract: An ultrasonic transducer array comprising individual transmit MUT elements and receive MUT elements includes the transmit MUT elements and the receive MUT elements distributed in two dimensions over the array. By using different MUT elements for transmit and receive operation, each MUT element can be independently optimized for either transmit operation or receive operation. Furthermore, by independently optimizing the MUT elements for either transmit or receive operation, the same bias voltage can be applied to the MUT elements, thereby simplifying the bias circuitry associated with the MUT transducer array. Alternatively, because the MUT elements are independently optimized for transmit and receive, different bias voltages can be applied to the transmit and receive elements, thus providing further optimization of the elements.

Said arrangement comprises a concave mirror (6, 16) aligned with a beam splitter, the splitting surface (3, 15) of which is divided into transmitting and reflecting surfaces. Light from the illumination source is incident on beam splitter, reflected from it back to the concave mirror and then focussed by the mirror onto the transmitting region so that light is incident on the sample. Light is then transmitted back to a detector (17).  An evaluation unit can be used on the input size to adjust the detector and on its output size to adjust the focal length of a concave mirror.

Abstract: A short-range RF access point contains two Bluetooth devices. The first device is programmed to remain a master device. The second device is programmed to remain a scanning slave device. The two devices are connected to exchange clock, address, and synchronization information. The access point master device transmits inquiry and paging packets and establishes connections with potential slave devices that respond to inquiries from the master device. The master device's clock is the piconet clock for the resulting connections. The access point slave device primarily remains in an inquiry scanning mode, searching for inquiry packets from mobile devices that are potential master devices. When the access point slave device receives the inquiry packets and paging packets from a mobile device, it then passes control to the access point master device. Several embodiments are disclosed for passing control from the access point slave to the access point master.
