Abstract: A dual cap lining for bi-directional venting comprising a substantially round, disc-shaped, laminated, fluid-impermeable, gas-permeablematerial bottom layer, and having an extruded and cast polyethylene material top layer which is provided with apertures which communicate with the bottom layer and also communicate with channels provided on the upper surface of the top layer, and the material of construction of the laminated bottom layer is gas-permeable such that the dual lining allows bi-directional gas flow therethrough, for gases which have built-up in the interior of the connected container to safely escape by venting from the interior of the container to the external ambient atmosphere through openings existing between the spiral screw threads of the cap closure and threads of the container neck, and the reverse venting to equilibrate for relatively increased external pressure, without passage of solid or liquid material from the interior of the container through the lining to the closure and to the exterior of the container.

Title: Novel method for treating an emulsion
Inventor: GOSSET SERGE
IPC: B01D17/05
Filed: 1995-06-06
Granted: 1998-03-11
Abstract: Method of breaking an emulsion, especially an oil-in-water emulsion, using at least one cyclodextrin. Advantageously, said cyclodextrin can be selected from alpha-cyclodextrin, beta-cyclodextrin and their derivatives. The stable emulsion to be treated generally contains an anionic, cationic, amphoteric or non-ionic surfactant, and in particular an oil-in-water emulsifying agent. The emulsion to be broken can already contain a cyclodextrin, a substance known for forming or stabilizing all kinds of emulsions of different formulations. This method of treating an emulsion recovers fats from initial emulsions, and from complexes as well, with a view to recycling or commercialisation.

Abstract: The lymphocyte ativation gene (LAG-3) is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily that is selectively transcribed in human activated T and NK cells. Surface LAG-3 expression correlated with IFN-gamma but not IL-4, production in antigen-stimulated T-cells and it was up-regulated by IL-12 and is preferentially associated with CD4+ T-cells producing Th1-type cytokines. The presence of LAG-3 on the surface of Th1 lymphocytes is used as a marker to detect and identify Th1 lymphocytes and differentiate them from Th2 lymphocytes. Monoclonal antibodies to LAG-3 are used in methods of detecting and isolating Th1 cells as well as methods of diagnosing Th1-mediated disease. The present invention also relates to methods of treating infectious diseases, cancer, and disorders assocated with Th1/Th2 imbalance.

Abstract: Air freshener sprays often tend to fragrance not only the restrooms but also the persons using the restrooms because of the pulsed way in which they discharge their fragrance and because they are usually situated on or near doors. The aim of the invention is to provide a means of avoiding this problem. To this end, the inventive device contains evaporation elements (23, 24) in an almost closed evaporation chamber (20), said evaporation elements (23, 24) being supplied by reservoir bottles (21, 22) which are filled with the active substance. A saturated atmosphere (A*) is formed in the evaporation chamber (20) accordingly. Said saturated atmosphere is then discharged into the surrounding air through a ventilator (3), via a blow-out opening (8a) which is connected to a housing cover. Said ventilator (15) is driven by a spring motor contained in a gear housing (34). Said spring motor is stressed and released via a pivoted lever (60) in the manner of known air freshener dispensing devices, said pivoted lever (60) being activated by the door movements, via a pulley (61).

Abstract: The invention concerns a method by which a (starter) burner can be combined with a porous element to make the surface combustion of liquid fuels possible. The burner is started up by means of an electric heater or by activating the starter burner. The transition to surface combustion is carried out by means of a short interruption in the fuel flow. With the same flow-rate settings, a fuel-vapour/air mixture which will burn on the porous element is then produced in the vicinity of the starter burner. The energy required to vaporize the fuel in steady-state operation can be provided in various ways. The surface can have a layered structure, thus enabling the energy flow to be regulated to the required rate. The surface can also have a special shape, enabling secondary air to be supplied, under certain conditions, without any danger of ignition before combustion at the surface.
