Title: Process to produce aminocarboxylic acids containing low residual salt
Inventor: GRIERSON JEFFREY G
IPC: C07C227/18
Filed: 1995-09-05
Abstract: A method for producing an aqueous solution of an aminocarboxylic acid from an aqueous solution of an alkali metal salt of the aminocarboxylic acid is disclosed. The first step of the method is to adjust the pH of the aqueous solution of the alkali metal salt of the aminocarboxylic acid to between 1.0 and 3.0. This is done by adding a monovalent inorganic acid to the aqueous solution of the alkali metal salt of the aminocarboxylic acid to form an aqueous feed solution containing protonated aminocarboxylic acid and an inorganic alkali salt having an inorganic anion and an alkali metal cation. The second step of the method is to pass the aqueous feed solution through at least one membrane using a diafiltration process to separate the aqueous feed solution into an aqueous permeate solution, containing the alkali metal cation, and an aqueous retentate solution containing the aminocarboxylic acid.

Title: Liquid discharging method and liquid discharging head
Inventor: KASHINO TOSHIO
IPC: B41J2/175
Filed: 1997-07-07
Abstract: A liquid discharging method which employs a liquid discharging head consisting of a liquid discharging port, a bubble generating region where the bubble generates in the liquid and a movable member that can move between a first position and a second position which is located at a point farther from the bubble generating region compared with the first position, wherein the movable member moves from the first position to the second position by the pressure of the bubble generated by the bubble generating energy in the bubble generating region, and at the same time the bubble expands farther toward the downstream direction compared with the upstream direction by the displacement of the movable member in order to discharge the liquid out of the liquid discharging port by the liquid discharging energy applied to such liquid.  The movable member has its free end in the downstream side with respect to its fulcrum and the liquid is discharged by applying the discharging energy corresponding to a saturation domain where the amount of the liquid to be discharged out of the liquid discharging port is substantially saturated in accordance with the increase of the discharging energy.

IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 1998-01-22
Abstract: A system and method for teleconferencing between conferees connected through a connectionless network and conferees connected through a connection-oriented network having a bridge. A call server connects to a bridge hosting a teleconference among connection-oriented conferees and joins the teleconference.The connection-oriented signal received by the call server is converted into a connectionless signal and sent to authorized, authenticated conferees connected through the connectionless network. The call server receives a connectionless signal from a conferee through the connectionless network, converts the signals to a connection-oriented signal and sends the connection-oriented signal to the bridge. Connectionless signals are stored in a database to be analyzed or sent to other conferees, such as those who were unavailable to join the teleconference as it occurred. The call server provides multimedia interfaces to conferee by which the conferees can monitor and join an ongoing teleconference, access a stored teleconference, or configure a new teleconference. The call server can also bridge teleconferences hosted on two or more bridges, expanding the audience for a given teleconference beyond the capacity of a single bridge.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé destiné à prolonger la conservation des plaquettes sanguines humaines à basse température. Le procédé utilise un système d'inhibiteurs permettant aux plaquettes sanguines de conserver leur intégrité fonctionnelle pendant leur stockage. De plus, le système d'inhibiteurs empêche la génération de cytokines dans la préparation plaquettaire pendant un stockage à la fois à 22 ·C et à 4 ·C. Pour ce faire, on interrompt la fonction plaquettaire normale pendant le stockage, de manière à aider à empêcher les plaquettes de s'activer et de perdre leur forme. Avant l'utilisation des plaquettes dans une transfusion, elles sont ramenées à leur niveau fonctionnel normal par élimination du système d'inhibiteurs desdites plaquettes par lavage.
