Title: Lectin compositions and uses thereof in chemotherapy or radiotherapy
Inventor: PUSZTAI ARPAD JANOS
IPC: A23L1/305
Filed: 1997-06-20
Abstract: Chlorine is scrubbed from a chlorine-containing gas using an aqueous feed liquor containing an excess of alkali to give an effluent liquor containing chloride and hypochlorite ions. The effluent liquor is recycled as part or all of the aqueous feed liquor. For at least part of the time, at least part of the effluent liquor is passed through a fixed bed of a catalyst for the decomposition of hypochlorite ions whereby hypochlorite ions are decomposed to oxygen gas and chloride ions. The resultant catalyst-treated liquor is mixed with the remainder, if any, of the effluent liquor and recycled, optionally together with added fresh alkali solution, as the aqueous feed liquor. Part of the effluent liquor is optionally discharged as a purge stream before or after passage through catalyst bed. The process may be operated in a continuous mode or in a semi-continuous mode wherein a reservoir holding the liquor to be recycled is periodically discharged, preferably through the catalyst bed, and then recharged with fresh alkali solution. Alternatively two reservoirs may be employed with one supplying the aqueous feed liquor while the other is being discharged and replenished. In the latter case, the reservoir being discharged may have its liquor discharged through the catalyst bed.

Title: Method and apparatus for measuring and orienting golf club shaft
Inventor: WEISS RICHARD M
IPC: A63B53/10
Filed: 2001-11-09
Abstract: The preferred orientation, or planar oscillation plane, of a golf club shaft (110) is located by measuring the oscillation (20, 21) of the shaft (110) when an impulse is applied. Preferably, the out-of-plane oscillation is measured at a large number of angular positions about the shaft (110) axis, and the principal planar oscillation plane is identified by that pair of opposed angular positions in which the out-of-plane oscillation is smallest. The location of the preferred orientation may be marked on the shaft (110) and used to assemble a golf club with the planar oscillation plane in a predetermined orientation. The straightness of the shaft (110) can also be determined by deriving its spring constant from its oscillation frequency and then measuring the restoring force when the shaft is deflected by the same nominal amount at different angular positions; differences in restoring force can be attributed to differences in actual deflection distance resulting from lack of straightness.
