Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a method for detecting, enumerating and/or identifying microorganisms in a sample. More particularly, the present invention provides a method for determining total microbial content in a sample by detecting the presence of nucleotide sequences associated with all or part of 16S rDNA or its corresponding 16S rRNA or its homologue, functional equivalent or derivative. The nucleotide sequences of the present invention may be used as an indicator of any microorganism and, hence, represents a universal target sequence which is indicative of total microbial content in a sample. The universal target sequence may also be varied to render same genus or species specific or the universal target used to trap microbial DNA or RNA which may be subsequently analyzed by sequence analysis or genetic probe technology. The universal target sequence is useful inter alia to design as universal primers and probes to amplify any microbial-derived genomic sequence, as a means to detect and enumerate total microorganisms and to identify microorganisms in a sample at the genus or species level. Such uses enable improved methods of enviroprotection, bioremediation, medical diagnosis and industrial microbiology. The present invention further relates to the universal target sequence in isolated form and/or primers or probes capable of hybridizing to same and kits for the detection of total microbial content in a sample.

Abstract: Electrochemical cell, such as an SOFC, comprising a porous solid electrode (2) in contact with an electrolyte (1), which has been treated so as to become gasproof before the electrode is applied. According to the invention, this contact has been mechanically improved by sintering anchoring particles (3) of for instance TiO2 onto the electrolyte (1). Subsequently, the electrode (2) can be sintered thereon at a temperature lower than hitherto known while still obtaining a sufficient, mechanical attachment in the contact. The latter lowering of the process temperature results in an improved efficiency of the electrode (2), and it allows the use of electrodes which are usually reactive towards the electrolyte at comparatively higher process temperatures.

Abstract: An interaction simulator, such as a chatterbot, is enabled to simulate an awareness of the user to generate an interaction that is more natural and appropriate than prior art chatterbots. For example, the device may employ machine vision to detect the number of persons present or the activity of the user and respond accordingly by interrupting its output or by inviting a conversation or other interaction when a user approaches. The device may modify its responses according to the user's activity, for example, by playing music when the user falls asleep or requesting an introduction when another user speaks. The device may also respond to unrecognized changes in the situation by inquiring about what is going on to stimulate interaction or generate new responses.

Abstract: Continuous web feed is provided by using an apparatus for unwinding a web on a continuous basis by means of an automatic web splicing apparatus. An arm supporting a web roll is rocked when unwinding of the web is switched between web rolls. When the web is switched from one of web rolls (roll A) to the other (roll B), the remaining core of the web roll is removed subsequent to switching. Then the web roll installation position is shifted to the side reverse to the front and back of the web being unwound from the other web roll (roll B). After that, a new web roll is mounted in position. When the web is switched from the other web roll (roll B) to the web roll (roll A), the remaining core of the web roll is removed subsequent to switching. The web roll installation position is arranged in such a way that a new web roll is then mounted on the same side as the front and back of the web being unwound from the web roll. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An electrical crimp connector comprises a metallic crimp barrel adapted to receive the bared end portion of an electrical conductor and a heat-shrinkable polymeric sleeve in which the crimp barrel is received. The insulating sleeve is comprised of an ionic polymer derived from the polymerization of an  alpha -olefin and an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid , a proportion of whose acid groups have been reacted to create ionic carboxylates of metal ions. The ionic polymer sleeve has high impact toughness, high abrasion and chemical resistance, high resistance to splitting by crimping tools, high degrees of flexibility and transparency, and a relatively low heat shrink temperature, making it more suitable for use in such connectors than sleeves comprised of other materials such as polyamides or polyolefins. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Described are methods for stabilizing radionuclide-containing compositions against degradation caused by free radicals generated from the radionuclide. Iodide ions stabilize the radionuclide-containing compositions by acting as scavengers to generated free radicals, thus, preventing or lessening degradation therefrom. Among the preferred radionuclide-containing compositions to be stabilized are complexes of a complexing agent with a radionuclide complexed therewith, such as a diagnostic agent having a specific binding peptide linked to a metal ion-complexing moiety which is complexed with a radionuclide, such as technetium-99m (Tc-99m). Also included in the invention are compositions of radionuclide-containing compounds or complexes with iodide or an iodide ion-providing component, compositions of compounds or complexing agents that will be associated with a radionuclide and kits containing any combination of radionuclides, radionuclide generators, complexing agents or compounds which are associated with or will be associated with radionuclides and iodide or iodide-providing components.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method, a system and a computer-readable medium storing computer-executable components in connection with transfer of information data to a recipient. The invention is based on the idea that generation of random number data and the calculation of digital signatures are performed before information data is accessible to a digital pen. Since asymmetric encryption of data is a demanding operation for said digital pen to perform in terms of processing power, a lot of time can be saved if the generation of random number data and asymmetric encryption of said random number data is performed in advance, when the pen is in an adle, non-communicating mode, for example during battery loading of the pen or when the pen is lifted from the position-coded paper. This alleviates delay times when the pen is in its communicating mode.
