Abstract: The invention proposes an artificial knee joint consisting of a convex femoral component (1) and a socket-like tibial component (2). The tibial component (2) performs a rolling and sliding movement on the femoral component (1), which exhibits smaller radii of curvature with increasing flexion, the femoral component (1) and tibial component (2) each have a lateral guide surface (F2, F2') and each have a medial guide surface (F1, F1'). The medial guide surface (F1') of the tibial component (2) forms a flat guide which, at various angles of flexion, bears with linear contact on cylindrical guide surfaces (F1) of the femoral component (1), while the lateral guide surface (F2') of the tibial component, at various angles of flexion in the frontal plane in the lateral direction, is held by the lateral condyle by means of linear contact on circular segments of equal radius of curvature (R3) and forms a track (7) in a plane parallel to the medial guide surface (F1'). This equal radius of curvature (R3) is in terms of its size between the minimum and maximum radius of flexion (Rn) of the lateral condyle running in the track (7).

Abstract: An article comprising a transparent plano-convex base sheet having first and second broad faces, the second face being substantially planar and the first face having an array of substantially hemi-spheroidal microlenses thereon, the shape of the microlenses and thickness of the base sheet being such that collimated light substantially orthogonally incident to the array is focused approximately at the second face. The article optionally further comprising a specularly reflective layer on the second face which renders the base sheet retroreflective. An optional layer of adhesive over the reflective layer permits the article to be adhered to a document as a tamper-indicating, authenticating, and protective overlay. Special images can be formed within the article to enhance the security provided thereby. Also, a method for forming such articles.

Abstract: An aluminum layer supported on a web of flexible polymeric material, especially a microwave transparent material, or a self-supporting aluminum web is continuously selectively metallized by applying to the web a pattern of aqueous sodium hydroxide resistant material, immersing and passing the patterned web through a bath of aqueous sodium hydroxide solution to completely remove the etchable metal from non-protected areas of the web, and washing and drying the demetallized web. When an aluminum layer is supported on the flexible web, it is preferred that there is an intervening adhesive layer and that a detackifying layer is applied to the adhesive layer exposed by the demetallization.

Abstract: Contemporary infection by Helicobacter pylori in a human or other mammal can be detected by detecting H. pylori-specific IgG antibody in saliva, or other mucous secretion, with an antigen preparation from H. pylori. Diagnosis depends on detection of the antigen-antibody complex. For improved reliability, the antigen preparation comprises H. pylori-derived components of about 265 kDa and about 340 kDa and is substantially free of an H. pylori-derived component of about 440 kDa. The antigen preparation may be immobilised onto a solid support such as a nitrocellulose strip.
