IPC: G01N33/68
Filed: 1995-02-17
Abstract: A method for assay of normal aggrecan wherein normal aggrecan capable of binding hyaluronan is separated from proteoglycan incapable of binding hyaluronan so that only normal aggrecan can be detected, and a measurement kit used for the assay. Normal aggrecan thus separated is detected with a means for detection of proteoglycan. The specimen is preferably synovial fluid from the joint to be examined. A method for evaluation of information on a joint wherein information on the amount of normal aggrecan and the amount of total proteoglycan in the specimen is detected with said method and said measurement kit for assay of normal aggrecan, such information is compared with the previously obtained information on the amount of said substances in synovial fluid from a normal joint, and the information is evaluated to be the one derived from a normal joint or a pathological joint based on the absence or presence of significant difference. Presence of significant difference is considered to indicate a disease selected among a group of diseases consisting of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis, and gout. 
     This invention is usable for biochemical diagnosis of joint diseases in the field of orthopedics. Determination of the concentration of normal aggrecan and the percentage of normal aggrecan in total proteoglycan is useful for differentiation between a normal joint and a pathological joint, for understanding of the pathological conditions, such as the type of the joint disease and estimation of the prognosis, and also for evaluation of the effect of therapies.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de fabrication de coques de bateaux dans une forme femelle (3). La coque se compose, d'une part d'une âme rigide en plastique armé, et d'autre part d'une couche au moins de protection moins dure (7, 8). Cette couche e plastique ou en gomme se présente sur la face externe de l'âme rigide. Pour conférer à la coque une surface externe moins dure, et pour améliorer l'adhésion entre l'âme rigide et la couche de protection, on intègre la couche de protection à l'âme dès la fabrication de la coque. Le procédé consiste d'abord à déposer la couche de protection sur la surface de formage (4) de la forme femelle, puis à réaliser l'âme structurante par-dessus la couche de protection et les parties apparentes de la surface de formage. Pour réaliser la couche de protection avec précision et de façon rationnelle, le procédé consiste à couler la couche de protection dans un moule, et à utiliser la forme femelle, ou tout autre objet ayant servi à la réalisation de la forme femelle pour réaliser la couche de protection par moulage ou tout autre procédé de confection.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FI95/00525 Sec. 371 Date May 29, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date May 29, 1997 PCT Filed Sep. 26, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/09871 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 4, 1996The invention relates to a heat exchanger wherein the heating vapor is fed onto heat exchange surfaces of membrane material from a vapor distributor, the vapor distributor having parallel conduits for directing vapor over the entire width of the surfaces. According to the invention the vapor distributor is made up of two opposing wall elements which are fastened to each other by means of projections in one element and corresponding recesses in the other element. The upper end of the membrane constituting the heat exchange surface is locked between the projections and recesses that are fastened to each other. Thus, pleats are produced in the membrane as an expansion leeway for the vapor space delimited by the membrane. The heat exchange surfaces may be formed into bags, the ends of which are fastened between the interlinked wall elements in such a manner that the vapor conduits delimited by the elements will direct heating vapor to the inside of the bags and the liquid conduits will direct liquid to be evaporated onto the outer surfaces of the bags.

Abstract: A method of washing cellulosic pulp to remove dissolved solids as well as dirt, inorganic fillers and fiber debris from the pulp. A thin mat of cellulosic pulp having a weight of 3 to 100 pounds of dry fiber per 1000 sq. ft. is applied to the upper surface of a porous, endless belt or fabric. The belt containing the pulp mat is moved in a generally horizontal path, and as it is moved in this path wash water is directed against the exposed upper surface of the mat through a series of longitudinally spaced showers to thereby impregnate the mat with wash water. Water removal devices, preferably table rolls, are located beneath the belt and downstream in the direction of travel from each shower to thereby remove the wash water from the mat. After moving through the path of travel, the washed pulp is removed from the belt, and the wash water removed from the mat can be used in other portions of the papermaking process.

Abstract: The measurement generator (1) determines the flow rate of a fluid flowing through a tube or pipe system by measuring the average flow rate using ultrasound signals. The fluid flows through a measuring tube (4). The ends of the tube each have an ultrasound convertor (9,10) in direct contact with the fluid. The diameter of the sound cone (13) provided by the ultrasound convertor is smaller than the inner diameter of the measuring tube. An aperture (5) is formed in the inlet (2) to generate a flow profile in the measuring tube independent of the external tube. In another arrangement, at least one end of the measuring tube has elements which affect the flow profile. These elements form different size flow chambers with different resistances to fluid flow. These chambers are arranged such that in the zone without elements, the flow resistance increases and the resistance is less in the zone with elements.

Abstract: when a pseudo GPS signal can be normally received, the satellite output timing is substantially synchronized with the ground reference time while the control is carried out so as to advance/delay the timing of outputting a transmission PN code in correspondence to the moving direction of a satellite (S2,S3). Subsequently, a time period ranging from a time point when transmitting the pseudo GPS signal to a time period when receiving the pseudo GPS signal which has been returned via the satellite is observed, so as to increase/decrease continuously a frequency of the transmission PN code, in such a way that the intermediate time therebetween becomes the reference time (S4,S5). The frequency of the transmission carrier is controlled in so as to maintain a constant ratio between the relationship in which the frequency of the received carrier and that of the received reception PN code frequency (S8,S9). It is thus possible to cancel the transponder frequency error of the geostationary satellite site as well as the Doppler component added in the up link.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for controlling the water level and the presence of foam in immersed-electrode humidifiers. The method provides for an algorithm for managing the operation of the humidifier, which consists in measuring, during water filling, the intensity of the current absorbed by the electrodes and comparing the measured value with a first reference value to check the required production. If the measured value is lower than the first reference value, the water level is controlled. Water level control is performed by first loading water until the first reference value is reached, unless a water presence sensor reports that the maximum level has been reached. In this condition, the absorbed current intensity is measured again and compared with a second reference value. If the measured value is lower than the second reference value, foam presence is checked for. Foam presence checking is started by removing power and simultaneously loading more water for a preset time in order to give any foam the time to settle due to the reduction in current and temperature. Loading is continued for a preset maximum time. If the water presence sensor reports that the maximum level has been reached within this time, it is assumed that no foam is present and the algorithm returns substantially to the beginning of the procedure described so far. If instead the water presence sensor does not report that the maximum level has been reached when the preset maximum time expires, foam management is performed in order to eliminate the foam, discharging water for a preset time. Thereafter, the algorithm returns substantially to the beginning of the procedure described so far.
