Abstract: Ensemble (12) permettant de tenir un guide de suture sensiblement flexible (10) de longueur prédéterminée dans une position sensiblement tendue et utilisé pour obtenir une ligne de suture ayant une dimension égale à la longueur du guide de suture (10), comme par exemple la circonférence de l'anneau d'une valvule du c÷ur. L'ensemble (12) comprend un support rigide (20) du guide de suture, lequel support possède une surface contre laquelle la longueur du guide de suture (10) est placée de manière libérable. Le porte-guide (20) peut avoir une forme ou une géométrie, telle qu'une circonférence ou un segment circonférentielle, équivalente à la forme ou à la géométrie de la ligne de suture recherchée. La forme du porte-guide (20) peut par conséquent être choisie pour tenir le guide de suture (10) dans la forme la plus avantageuse pour l'obtention de la ligne de suture désirée. L'ensemble (12) comprend un outre un mécanisme (39, 48, 49) de liaison libérable du guide de suture (10) sur la surface du support (20) ainsi qu'une poignée détachable (40) rattachée de manière extensible au support (20) au moyen d'un cordon (100) de sorte que la poignée (42) peut être détachée afin d'obtenir une vue dégagée de l'endroit où s'effectue l'opération chirurgicale, mais elle ne peut être retirée du site de l'opération chirurgicale avant d'avoir retiré le support (20).

Abstract: A new process and kit are described that combines methods for generating the nucleotide base sequence of a DNA molecule with an ultra-sensitive silver staining protocol. This new combination of technologies allows for a direct, non-instrument based visualization of electrophoretically separated sequencing fragments. This non-radioactive system includes sequencing the DNA molecule by forming a set of fragments using an enzymatic dideoxy-mediated chain termination method, electrophoretically separating the DNA fragments on a gel medium, and exposing the gel medium to ultra-sensitive silver-staining solutions for a time determined by viewing the silver stain reacted primer extension products.

Abstract: A unique wind propelled craft (15) including a body (17), a deck (20) which forms the upper surface of the body (17), a sail (29) for propelling the body (17) by wind forces, a rudder (51) for maneuvering the craft (15) and rudder control assembly (53) for controlling and adjusting the position of the rudder (51). The rudder control assembly (53) includes a steering assembly (60) and a pair of rotating steering members (82, 84) operably connected to the rudder (51) for turning the rudder (51) upon rotation of the steering members (82, 84). Each of the steering members (82, 84) is adapted to releasably engage the steering assembly (60) at two separate locations along the deck (20). The steering assembly (60) includes an elongated multi-function rudder control arm (95). The control arm (95) includes at its distal end a grip (102) for engagement with a user's hand and at its proximate end a universal joint assembly (110). The universal joint assembly (110) allows a user to manipulate the control arm (95) throughout an entire hemisphere of positions without effectuating any corresponding movement of the steering members (82, 84) or the rudder (51). Turning movement of the rudder (51) is accomplished by rotating the grip (102), and in turn, the control arm (95).

Abstract: An attachment mechanism for inhibiting theft of equipment includes a housing for a spindle having a first portion rotatable within the housing (36), a shaft (52) extending outwardly from the housing, and a crossmember (54) at the end of the shaft having peripheral dimensions closely conforming to the internal dimensions of a specially designed slot in the equipment. An abutment mechanism (60) emanates from the housing, and is located on opposite sides of the shaft intermediate the housing and the crossmember. The combined peripheral cross-sectional dimensions of the abutment mechanism and the shaft closely conform to those of the slot. The crossmember (54) is aligned with the abutment mechanism (60) so that the crossmember can be inserted through the slot with the shaft and the abutment mechanism (60) occupying the slot (72). The spindle is rotated 90 DEG to misalign the crossmember with the slot (72), thereby attaching the attachment mechanism (12) rigidly to the external wall. A cable (18) is secured to the housing and to an immovable object to prevent theft of equipment.

Abstract: An electric immersion heating element has an elongate, metal-sheathed, electrically insulated, resistance heating portion (1) engaged at its ends in bores formed in an element head (2) which may be formed of a synthetic plastics material, a heat transfer element (8) formed of a high thermal conductivity material extends from a heated part of the resistance heating portion adjacent one of its ends through the element head to enable the element temperature to be sensed from the opposite side of the head, and a tubular enclosure (7) extends from the element head (2) and surrounds the said part of the resistance heating portion of the element. The element construction enables dry-boil protection and automatic switch-off on boiling to be achieved by use of a single thermal sensor coupled to the heat transfer element (8) since the steam generated in the enclosure when water boils causes water to be expelled from the enclosure thereby mimicking a dry boil situation.
