Abstract: A capacitive sensor system including a sensing plate, an amplifier, and a switching circuit is described. The sensing plate is capacitively coupled to a body surface. A change in the electric potential on the body surface generates an electric field that induces change in the electric potential of the sensing plate. The sensing plate includes a sensing node positioned in the electric field for generating an input signal from the electric field. The sensing plate is not in contact with the body surface. The amplifier receives the input signal at the input port, amplifies the input signal and generates an output signal at the output port. The switching circuit is connected to the input port and a reference voltage. The switching circuit non-continuously closes a shunting path from the sensing node to the reference voltage to reset the voltage at the sensing node.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for X-ray fluorescence analysis of a mineral sample is disclosed. The apparatus comprises an X-ray source (2) for generating an X-ray beam to irradiate the mineral sample; at least one fluorescence detector (4,5) for measuring fluorescent radiation emitted by the mineral sample when irradiated by the X-ray beam; and a processing unit for providing an analysis of the mineral sample based on the measurements made by the at least one fluorescence detector (4,5). Further, the apparatus comprises a sample container (3) arranged to hold the mineral sample during the irradiation, wherein the sample container is arranged to provide at least two different irradiation paths through said mineral sample during irradiation. An advantage with this arrangement is that it enables analysis of elements having a wide range of atomic numbers in a single sample with improved reliability and accuracy. This results in maximized detectability for a wide range of elements, while reducing the number of samples that needs to be prepared. The present invention also leads to simplified sample preparation, and to a faster and more cost-efficient analysis. This makes the apparatus particularly useful for field use.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un générateur pour conversion photovoltaïque de lumière solaire concentrée en électricité. Un générateur selon l'invention comprend une pluralité de cellules photovoltaïques destinées à fonctionner près du foyer d'un grand réflecteur parabolique pointé vers le Soleil. Dans le générateur, la lumière concentrée entrante est relayée par des éléments optiques auxiliaires vers les cellules agencées en un réseau compact et concave. La lumière est délivrée aux cellules à haute concentration, en cohérence avec une efficacité élevée de conversion photovoltaïque à faible coût par unité d'énergie de sortie. La lumière entre dans le générateur, de préférence d'abord à travers une fenêtre d'étanchéité et passe à travers une lentille de champ, de préférence en forme de sphère complète ou d'une lentille sphérique centrée sur le foyer parabolique. Cette lentille forme une image grand angle concave et concentrique du réflecteur principal, l'intensité de la lumière concentrée étant stabilisée contre des changements de position de la lumière concentrée entrant dans le générateur. La réception de la lumière stabilisée s'effectue au niveau de cellules photovoltaïques fabriquées dans différentes formes et différentes tailles et configurées dans un réseau concave correspondant à l'image concave d'un réflecteur principal donné. Des cellules photovoltaïques dans un générateur sont aussi dimensionnées et interconnectées afin de fournir une production électrique unique qui reste élevée et stable, en dépit des aberrations dans la lumière délivrée vers le générateur dûes, par exemple, à une erreur de pointage ou de courbure du réflecteur principal. Dans certains modes de réalisation de l'invention, les cellules sont fixées à partir de l'image formée par la lentille sphérique et, une partie de la lumière est réfléchie sur chaque réflecteur auxiliaire à petites cellules en forme de miroirs fixés autour de son périmètre.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a process for producing compositions that are rich in secretory IgA (S-IgA) by fractionating milk containing S-IgA. Such compositions may be used in particular for treating and/or preventing infections and/or inflammation of the mucosal surfaces, e.g. the gastro-intestinal tract, urogenital tract, respiratory tract, nasal cavity or oral cavity, treating and/or preventing obesity and related diseases, or treating and/or preventing food allergies in subjects in need of such treatment. Briefly stated, the current invention provides a process for producing milk fractions rich in secretory Immunoglobulin A, using one or more microporous membrane filtration steps. A preferred protocol of the present process involves de-fatting, micro-filtration and ultrafiltration-concentration through a number of diafiltration cycles. The process of the invention, apart from the unexpectedly high yields achievable, offers advantages which are of particular interest in view of the scalability, application in existing diary factories and controllability of process parameters influencing the S-IgA quality and stability.
