Abstract: PURPOSE:To provide a fermentation tank containing a stirring and mixing device and a raw material compression device in the tank, and capable of carrying out the aerobic fermentation of bulky and dried cellulosic raw material in high efficiency. CONSTITUTION:The stirring blades 2 are attached rotatably at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1, and a compression device composed of the pressurizing means 3 and the pressing plate 4 is attached to the top of the tank. The pressing plate is raised, the charging shutter 9 is opened, the bulky dried cellulosic raw material (e.g. water hyacinth) is charged into the fermentation tank 1, the stirring blades 2 are rotated to effect the sufficient mixing of the raw material, the pressing plate 4 is lowered by operating the pressurizing means 3 until the charged raw material is compressed to an adequate bulk density (or porosity), and the raw material is subjected to aerobic fermentation under the air flow sucked through the feed pipe 6 and exhausted from the exhaustion pipe 7. The mixing of the raw material during the fermentation can be carried out easily only by temporarily raising the pressing plate 4 and rotating the stirring blades 2.

Abstract: Stabilized enzymes useful in the diagnostic assay of total cholesterol are prepared by dissolving a salt of cholic acid in a buffer solution providing a pH within the range of about 4 to about 9, to the solution is added a cholesterol esterase. The solution is then mixed with a polyhydroxy organic compound and TRITON-X-100. A cholesterol oxidase and a peroxidase are each dissolved in separate portions of buffer solution and introduced into the buffered solution containing the cholesterol esterase, 4-aminoantipyrine is then added to the solution. The resultant solution is a stabilized enzyme solution which can be used in the total cholesterol assay of a serum sample. The stabilized solution can be used in combination with a chromogen diluent solution which is made by dissolving phenol and TRITON-X-100 in water or a buffer solution. The combination of the stabilized enzyme solution and the chromogen diluent solution provides a solution which has utility in the spectro-photometric assay of total cholesterol.

Abstract: Railroad rails having improved wear resistance, are produced by controlled forced cooling from above the austenite transformation temperature, to produce rails having a fine pearlite metallurgical structure in the head portions (6) of the rails. Apparatus comprising a series of cooling headers (la, 1b) utilizing a liquid cooling medium, such as unheated (i.e. cold, or ambient temperature) water, alternating with a series of air zones (2a, 2b), is preferably arranged in line with the production rolling mill, to receive hot rails as they emerge from the mill, without the necessity of intervening reheating. A roller type restraint system (9) transports the rails through the cooling apparatus, while restraining them in the appropriate position. Each segment of the rail length is intermittently subjected to forced cooling by spray application of the liquid cooling medium, applied to the head portion (6) and the central portion of the base bottom (7) of the rail, with means being provided to prevent spray from impinging on the web and base tips of the rail: During the intervals between applications of forced cooling, heat soaks back from the web portion (4) of the rail, the operating parameters of the system being so arranged that the temperature of the rail remains essentially above the martensite formation temperature. A computerized control system discontinues the application of forced cooling, at a predetermined stop temperature, also above the martensite formation temperature. The apparatus and method are capable of producing rails having the desired fine pearlite structure in the head portion, on a consistent basis, notwithstanding wide variations in temperature between different rails, and different segments of the same rail, as they emerge from a conventional production rolling mill.

Abstract: Circuit for generating a trigger pulse delayed within a period of a periodical motion of variable periodic time, the phase lag relative to a zero phase being dependent on the periodic time and other parameters, a zero pulse and angle pulses starting at zero 5 phase being generated, the pulse frequency being inversely proportional to the periodic time, the angle pulses being fed into a counter and correcting data being generated within every period during a constant-time window. The technical problem the invention relates to is to design the circuit so that a single sequence of angle pulses may be evaluated and no control pulses are necessary except a reference pulse for defining a reference phase. According to the invention the following solution to the problem is proposed: during a constant-time window the angle pulses are varied under control so that each single pulse may be duplicated, counted normally, or suppressed. In this way correcting pulses according to individual characteristics may be generated during the time window.
