Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de filtrage de données qui permet de filtrer des données en passant par plusieurs étapes. Le système fournit à un premier dispositif (10) un premier critère de filtrage (18). Le premier dispositif (10) utilise le premier critère de filtrage (18) pour générer un premier lot de données filtrées (22).

Abstract: The mass of urea in a fluid volume is calculated by performing mass exchange between the fluid volume and an exchange fluid flow. The concentration of the urea is repeatedly measured in the exchange fluid flow after the mass exchange to obtain a concentration curve. An approximation curve is fitted to at least a portion of the concentration curve. The logarithm of the approximation curve is a straight line whose slope is used to calculate the urea concentration.

Abstract: An aerosol dispensing inhaler training device for determining
whether a user is properly operating an aerosol dispensing device. The
training device includes an aerosol dispensing device having a container
with a valve stem extending longitudinally therefrom and movable
between a closed position and an open position. The container
dispenses a portion of the contents within the container when the valve
stem is moved to the open position. The aerosol dispensing device
includes a housing adapted to support the container reciprocally
moveable within the housing along a longitudinal axis from a first
position, the housing comprising a well adapted to receive the valve stem
and an exhaust port comprising one end in fluid communication with the
well and a second end in fluid communication with the ambient
atmosphere, wherein the portion of the contents within the container is
dispensed from the first end of the exhaust port to the second end of the
exhaust port when the housing moves to an actuation position where the
valve stem is actuated so that a portion of the contents within the
container is dispensed through the second end of the exhaust port when
the valve stem is moved to the open position. An actuation sensor
generates a signal that indicates when the housing is moved to the
actuation position and the valve stem is actuated. A shake sensor
determines whether the contents within the container have been properly
agitated for consumption by a user.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for the rapid extraction of
ciguatoxins from tissue samples. In one embodiment, a tissue sample is
extracted with a first solvent to solubilize and extract ciguatoxin from the
sample. A second solvent, which is not soluble in the first solvent and which
extracts contaminants but not ciguatoxin, is then added. The phases formed by
the first and second solvents are separated, and the first solvent phase is
collected. The first solvent is evaporated from the first solvent phase to produce
a residue which is resuspended in a third solvent. A fourth solvent, which is not
soluble in the third solvent and which extracts contaminants but not ciguatoxin,
is added to the third solvent/residue mixture. The phases formed by the third
and fourth solvents are separated, and the third solvent phase, which comprises
ciguatoxin, is collected. In a second embodiment, a sample is applied to a
coupled antibody-resin. The coupled antibody-resin is washed with a solution to
remove unbound material, but not ciguatoxin, from the coupled antibody-resin,
and ciguatoxin is then eluted from the coupled antibody-resin.

Abstract: This method consists in supplying at least a first alternating signal, at a determined frequency, to one end of a stator coil and recuperating a measurement signal at a second end of said coil, said measurement signal being provided to electronic processing means, which are arranged to extract data relating to a periodic variation of the effective inductance of the stator coil. This variation is a function of the angular position of the rotor. By alternately carrying out such a measurement on the stator coils, three periodic curves can be extracted (SPCA, SPCB, SPCC) defining a zigzag curve (70) allowing the angular position of the rotor to be determined.

Abstract: A synchrocrusher for making a material collide in which the rotor is
designed with a symmetric configuration; that is, the rotor contains
equal numbers of respectively forward (3) and backward (7) directed
guide members and co-rotating impact members (4,8) which are arranged, as
associated (synchronized) pairs, in each direction of rotation; which
pairs are circumferentially disposed uniformly at equal angular
distances around the axis of rotation with the forward and backward
directed configurations mirror imaged (symetrically) to each other. By
combining or joining together pairs of respective forward and backward
directed guide and co-rotating impact members, in respective guide and
impact combinations and guide and impact units, a supersymmetry
configuration is achieved, which is very effective and allows for many
interesting synchrorotor configurations.

Abstract: The PID includes an ultraviolet (UV) lamp for transmitting a UV light through an optical window
into an ionization chamber to ionize volatile gases.
An ion detector is disposed in the
ionization chamber to detect the produced ions. The ion detector comprises a pair of
interdigital electrodes which produce an electrical field that is perpendicular in direction to
that of the UV light propagation. A pump is also incorporated into the PID to circulate
gases into and out of the ionization chamber. The direction of the circulation is
perpendicular to the direction of the electrical field as well as the direction of the UV light
propagation. Because the aforementioned directions are perpendicular to each other in three
dimensional space, the ion detector of the present invention may be sensitive to
concentration ranges up to about 10,000 ppm of ionizable gases.
