Inventor: VAN HOEGAERDEN MICHEL
IPC: G01N33/58

Granted: 1995-05-24
Abstract: The invention provides a method capable of determining the presence or absence of each of a plurality of different ligands in a specimen. The specimen is contacted with a predetermined number of different homogeneous populations of fluorescence beads having one or more predetermined antiligands affixed to their surface. The specimen and bead mixture is analyzed using a means having a single parameter for measuring the fluorescence per ligand to determine the number of nonagglutinated beads, the number of agglutinated beads, the number of bead aggregates, and for each aggregate, the number of beads it comprises. This information is used to correlate the presence or absence in the specimen of each of the different ligands analyzed for. The method of the invention thus provides for the simultaneous determination of a predetermined number of ligands in a specimen using only a single bead contacting step.

Title: Extensions for railway vehicles
IPC: B61G11/18
Filed: 1990-01-20
Granted: 1992-05-06
Abstract: The extension is provided for railway vehicles, in particular for passenger coaches with UIC hitches and buffer gear and junction devices whose dividing planes can slide on one another with pretensioning and which in the non-loaded state protrude beyond their own buffer plate plane. The extension has buffer deflection means (11) which are provided for mirror-inverted attachment on the left and right of a junction device (17) in order to protect its components from collision with extraneous buffers. Normally, these means (11) have essentially three adjacent, preferably plane, surface components (21, 31, 41) in a position arranged at right angles to one another. However, they may also have only two faces, namely a pushing face (31) and an impact face (41) or in each case only one continuous spatial face structure (31, 41, 21, 31, 41). By means of this extension, passenger coaches with UIC hitches and buffer gear which have junction devices of a design which is pressure wave-resistant for high-speed transport and whose dividing planes can slide on one another with pretensioning and protrude in the non-loaded state beyond their own buffer plate plane, are protected from collisions with extraneous buffers. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for purifying crude products containing esters of a non-reducing sugar like sucrose, and one or more fatty acids such as palmitic acid, stearic acid etc. by subjecting said crude esterification products to an extraction treatment with supercritical carbon dioxide. After carrying out this extraction treatment a residue comprising the fatty acid esters of non-reducing sugars, the unreacted sugar and the salts as well as an extract comprising the fatty acids, fatty acid alkyl esters and also any solvents, if present, are obtained. The unreacted sugar and salts, present in the obtained residue, can be removed from said residue by, for example, a washing operation resulting in a final product of pure esters of the non-reducing sugar and one or more fatty acids. This last removal step concerning the unreacted sugar and salts may also be carried out before the application of the above indicated extraction treatment with supercritical carbon dioxide.

Granted: 1993-06-30
Abstract: In a process for phosphating iron and steel surfaces according to the low-zinc technology, a nitrite-free aqueous acidic phosphating solution of 30 to 65 DEG C is used which contains     0.4 to 1.7 g/l of Zn   7 to 25 g/l of P2O5   2 to 30 g/l of NO3 and in which the weight ratio of free P2O5 to total P2O5 is adjusted to a value in the range from 0.04 to 0.20. H2O2 or alkali metal perborate is added to the phosphating solution in an amount such that - in the incorporated state - its maximum peroxide concentration is 17 mg/l, preferably 8 mg/l (calculated as H2O2), or its maximum Fe(II) concentration is 60 mg/l, preferably 30 mg/l (calculated as Fe). It is particularly advantageous to control the addition of H2O2 and/or alkali metal perborate according to the electrochemical potential determined with a redox electrode. The phosphating solution may additionally contain Mn, Ni, Co, Mg and/or Ca or fluoroborate, fluorosilicate and/or fluoride. The process can be used in particular for the preparation of metal surfaces for coating. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Methods and compositions are described for liquid or gel forms of a lipid excipient to be used in pharmaceutical or cosmetic preparations. The lipid excipient comprises a phospholipid such as a lysophospholipid, for example, mono-oleoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine ("MOPE"). Relatively low concentrations of the lipid can be employed in forming the gel, e.g., about 1-2%. The invention discloses the use of a lipid delivery system at a relatively low lipid concentration as a non-toxic, non-irritating carrier or excipient alone or in combination with other agents, for both drugs and cosmetics. For example, the lipid excipient in sprayable or droppable form has special utility in the non-irritating delivery of peptides (e.g., calcitonin and insulin) to the nasal mucosa, due to the ability of the excipient to enhance absorption across nasal membranes. As a cosmetic, it can be used alone or in combination with biologically active agents.

Abstract: The process is implemented in a boiler (1) comprising a hearth (10) containing a fluidised bed surmounted by a post-combustion chamber (13). The combustion gases follow alternately rising and descending paths (16, 17, 19 and 21) where they cool in contact with walls (35, 36, 37, 38, 39) equipped with water pipes. Limestone is injected (at 28) into the bed (10) to fix the sulphur oxides and halogen compounds, and a jet of powdered lime, which neutralises the halogen compound residues, is injected (at 20) at the beginning of the third path (19); the flying particles deposited (at 18) are recycled into the hearth (10). The temperature of the bed is maintained between 800 DEG  and 900 DEG C and the secondary air injection is controlled to give an oxygen content in the combustion gases of between 5.5 and 7.5 %, to minimise the formation of nitrogen oxides, dioxins and furans.
