Abstract: The invention concerns a method for producing a highly-porous ceramic layer and for application of this layer onto metallic, ceramic, enameled and/or glass substrates using porous, ceramic particles, preferably aluminum oxide, titanium oxide and zircon oxide, and an inorganic binder system. The inorganic binder system contains at least one ceramic nanoparticle of a particle size of less than 100 nm, preferably less than 50 nm and particularly preferred less than 25 nm, the solvent being water. Layers produced in this fashion are suited as self-cleaning catalytically active layers e.g. in ovens, in combustion engines etc. or for general coating of substances to considerably increase their specific surface e.g. for catalytic substrates.

Abstract: The invention provides efficient, rapid, and sensitive enumeration of living cells by detecting microscopic colonies derived from  in situ  cell division using large area imaging. Microbial enumeration tests based on the invention address an important problem in clinical and industrial microbiology - the long time needed for detection using traditional methods - while retaining key advantages of the traditional methods based on microbial culture. Embodiments of the invention include nondestructive aseptic methods for detecting cellular microcolonies without labeling reagents. These methods allow for the generation of pure cultures which can be used for microbial identification and determination of antimicrobial resistance.

Abstract: An arrangement and a computer program product, for providing seamless IP mobility across a security boundary between two domains, secure domain (105) and insecure domain (107), is described. The invention comprises a novel architecture of known network infrastructure components, inner system home agent (130) and outer system home agent (102) along with enabling client software on the user device (103). The specific client software as well as the novel architecture represents the invention. Unlike state-of-art today, the method is based on the combined use of independent IP mobility systems in each of the two domains. The key to the invention is client software being able to operate with both mobility systems simultaneously. Moreover, communication takes place in such a way that the ordinary remote access security solution is in control of all access to the secure home domain of the user. The resulting method provides secure and seamless IP mobility in any domain with independent choice of mobility and security technologies. The invention does not require any significant changes (adaptations nor extensions) to any IP mobility or security technology beyond existing or upcoming standards. Nor does it require any significant changes to existing infrastructure components. The mobility client software is the only component that is affected, thus making the method client-centric, as opposed to a network-centric approach that is otherwise the alternative. The invention applies both for the current IPv4 family of standards as well as the forthcoming IPv6 family of standards. The invention applies in particular for the Mobile IP and IPSec VPN standards but is not restricted to these technologies. The invention is applicable for any IP mobility and IP security protocols as long as they are based on the same set of underlying principles. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A combination medical device comprising a circular stapler instrument (4) and one or more portions of preformed buttress material (16) adapted to be stably positioned upon the staple cartridge (12) and/or anvil (14) components of the stapler (4) prior or at the time of use. Positioned buttress material(s) (16) are delivered to a tissue site where the circular stapler (4) is actuated to connect previously severed tissue portions. An embodiment of the invention allows tissue portions to be joined without the use of sutures. The buttress material (16) is made up of two regions, one of which serves primarily to secure the buttress material (16) to the stapler (4) prior to actuation, and one of which serves primarily to form the improved seal.

Abstract: In a structural element in the form of a glued wooden beam (6) with prestresses reinforcement at least one reinforcing element (7) is provided in one or more longitudinal grooves (8) which extends parallel with the side edges of the beam (6) and preferably across the whole length of the beam. The at least one reinforcing element is formed by a reinforcing moulding compound which is provided in the grooves (8) with the glued wooden beam (6) prestressed in the cross direction towards the top surface, whereafter the reinforcing moulding compound is hardened and prestressed in compression when the glued wooden beam is relieved. Correspondingly also the bottom surface of the beam can be provided with at least one reinforcing element (7') of this kind, provided in a similar manner to the at least one reinforcing element (7) of the top surface, but prestressed in tension. The glued wooden beam (6) hence becomes reinforced symmetrically on two sides.

Abstract: A product dispenser is provided that enables product to be released from an adhesive attachment and transition from the interior of the dispenser to the exterior of the dispenser using a single rotation motion. The dispenser comprises a product platform, product adhesively secured to a strip and a base. The product platform comprises an upper surface and a lower surface and an opening through the platform. The adhesive strip comprises two major surfaces, one of which is free of adhesive and one with adhesive located on at least a portion thereof. The base comprises an upper surface and a lower surface and an opening through the base. The adhesive strip is threaded through both the product platform opening and the base opening and one end of the strip is attached to the lower surface of the base. The product platform and the base are fitted together so as to be rotatable with respect to each other about a common axis, with the lower surface of the product platform facing the upper surface of the base. The adhesive strip is positioned so that the nonadhesive surface of the strip is in contact with the upper surface of the product platform. Product, such as zinc air cells, are adhesively attached to the adhesive surface of the strip. In the case of zinc air cells, the adhesive strip functions as a tab until the cells are ready to be detabbed for activation and use. Rotation of either the base or the product platform so as to create relative motion between the two structures will cause the product to advance toward the opening in the product platform as the adhesive strip moves through the opening in the product platform. Product is separated from the adhesive strip as the strip moves through the product platform opening. Continued rotation advances the released product from the interior of the dispenser to the exterior of the dispenser.

Abstract: The display screen unit of a cell phone or PDA is carried in a mounting frame (26), which is bolted into the casing. The screen unit (29) is sandwiched between cushioning layers of foam. The screen unit can move laterally, relative to the mounting frame, putting the foam in shear, in response to an edge or corner impact. Springy tabs (42) are bent up from the metal backing plate (32) of the screen unit, and these springy tabs serve to cushion the impact of the screen unit against the mounting frame, in response to the edge or corner impact, leading to a marked improvement in drop test performance. As a production-line benefit, the springy tabs (42) also permit the screen unit to rest on the lip of the mounting frame, enabling the screen unit to be accurately positioned in the mounting frame just before the screen unit is finally pressed down into contact with the securing adhesive.
