Abstract: A distribution duct includes a plurality of cable shelves for distribution of power cables, i.e. heavy current cables (23), data connections, telephone cables and/or cables (25) from outlet sockets and with a plurality of turnable terminal means (10) provided in connection with at least one of the shelves. In front of the shelf, sliding panels (30) are arranged which can be lifted upwards when the user wishes to have access to the terminal means (10) at this shelf. The connecting means may be a terminal means (10) which can turn about a first pivot while an inner terminal means can optionally turn about a second pivot arranged perpendicular to said first pivot. The turnable terminal means (10) renders it possible to make the distribution duct (20) narrower than previously known for distribution ducts with built-in hidden terminal means. The terminal means is preferably supplied with power through a cable current collector module (50) with a base member with two wings, one wing on each side of the current collector module. Each wing forms at least one bearing or hinge carrying the substantially vertical pivot, about which the terminal means (10) can turn. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process for preparing sun protection compositions is described. An aqueous dispersion of a particulate metallic oxide in which the primary particle size is less than 0.2 micrometre is mixed with an emulsifier and an oil phase to form an oil-in-water emulsion and also with a hydrophobic organic sunscreen. The amount of metallic oxide present in the emulsion is up to 10 per cent by weight and the amount of hydrophobic organic sunscreen present is up to 7 per cent by weight. The use of an aqueous emulsion of inorganic oxide together with a hydrophobic organic sunscreen produces a composition having a higher Sun Protection Factor (SPF) than would be expected as an additive effect produced by the quantities of metallic oxide and organic sunscreen used.

Abstract: Methods are provided for intramuscular needle diagnosis and treatment of muscle pain that is believed to be the result of sympathetically mediated spindle spasm. Two simultaneous needle EMG needle recordings are used to establish the presence of and magnitude of the "trigger points" in painful muscle. The abnormal muscle activity so identified can then be treated by blocking the sympathetic activation muscle blocker or other agent that would have the same effect of inhibiting the abnormal muscle activity.

Abstract: A process is provided for the restoration of hydrogen sulfide removal capacity in nitrogen-treated carbonaceous chars which have become exhausted for hydrogen sulfide capacity when used for the removal of hydrogen sulfide from gas streams containing oxygen and water. This process entails washing the spent carbonaceous char with water of sufficient quantity to remove the majority of the hydrogen sulfide reaction products. By the use of this process a significant proportion of the original hydrogen sulfide capacity of the nitrogen-treated carbonaceous char is recovered.

Abstract: Methods are described for the in vivo topographic determination of tissue and bodily fluid oxygen concentration or PO2 within an imaged tissue, as well as a method for measuring blood or bodily fluid PO2 with a fiber optic catheter. In the first method, a lipid soluble, biocompatible fluorescent probe substance is administered to an animal body and accumulates within the lipid bilayers of its tissue cells. In the second method, the fluorescent probe substance is conjugated to a large molecular mass protein which causes it to be retained within a bodily fluid such as blood. In the third method describing a catheter design, in which PO2 is measured at the catheter tip, the tip contains the fluorescent probe substance dissolved in a viscous nonpolar solvent. In all methods described, a fluorescent probe substance is preferred whose fluorescence lifetime is quenched by molecular oxygen, and oxygen concentration or PO2 is determined by measuring the fluorescence anisotropy of the fluorescent probe substance. The bodily fluid or tissue containing the biocompatible fluorescent probe substance, or the fluorescent probe substance in a nonpolar solvent within a catheter tip, is irradiated with continuous linearly polarized ultraviolet light at a wavelength strongly absorbed by the fluorophore. The emitted fluorescence is resolved into its vector components parallel and perpendicular to the plane of polarization of the excitation light, thereby permitting the calculation of the fluorescence anisotropy of the irradiated specimen. Tissue and/or bodily fluid PO2 of the imaged specimen, or the PO2 of a fluid at the tip of a sealed catheter, is determined by applying a mathematical function which relates the fluorescence anisotropy of an O2-quenchable fluorophore to oxygen concentration or partial pressure.

Abstract: The converter has a three decision range conversion algorithm using ternary values. The converter has a single unipolar reference voltage source (Vr) and computing method (MC) to establish a voltage value. The voltage value is determined by determining a sum value from the voltage calculated during the previous iteration, and a value which is the product of the ternary value during the preceding iteration and the reference voltage. Computing is by switched capacitors (Cr, C1, C2) connected to a single operational amplifier (11). This provides a more compact circuit with less surface integration having a smaller current requirement whilst having a good conversion quality for applications such as hearing aids.

Abstract: A modular plug and multi-pair cable assembly provides reduced near-end crosstalk between two signal pairs of the cable. A modular plug has a plurality of wire-receiving passages disposed in first and second planar arrays spaced one above the other, with the passages of one planar array being staggered in position with respect to the passages of the other planar array. An end of a first wire of each of two signal pairs is received in respective wire-receiving passages of the first planar array and an end of a second wire of the two signal pairs is received in respective wire-receiving passages of the second planar array. A first pair plane in which the wire ends of the first signal pair are situated intersects a second pair plane in which the wire ends of the second signal pair are situated. In this manner crosstalk between the two signal pairs resulting from magnetic and electric field coupling is reduced.

Abstract: During a vacuum evacuation of a chamber, the presence of water in the chamber can be detected by monitoring the pressure level in the chamber. In the absence of water, the pressure will decrease continuously and smoothly. If water is present, the pressure will rise slightly one or more times, especially as the pressure falls below 5 torr. This rise in pressure can be detected to signal the unwanted presence of water in the chamber. The method has particular application to ensuring the chamber is free of water during the evacuation of a chamber employed in vapor or vapor/plasma sterilization.
