Abstract: Methods and compositions for the use of allogeneic mononuclear phagocytes to promote axonal regeneration in the central nervous system of a mammal are disclosed. In one embodiment, allogeneic mononuclear phagocytes are cultured together with stimulatory tissue, such as dermis or at least one nerve segment, and are subsequently administered into the central nervous system of a mammal at or near a site of injury or disease. In an alternative embodiment, autologous monocytes, preferably stimulated autologous monocytes, are administered into the central nervous system of a mammal at or near a site of injury or disease. Methods for identifying stimulatory tissue and cells and methods and compositions for cryopreserved allogeneic mononuclear phagocytes are also disclosed.

Abstract: Perfluorotetramethylcyclohexane shows improved properties for use in biological gas exchange, both as a blood substitute and as perfluorocarbon for intra-pulmonary applications. The material has an adequately low vapor pressure to completely avoid causing hyperinflated lung damage and to increase the interval between required applications. However, the compound has a sufficiently high vapor pressure to produce acceptably brief residence time within the body. A method has been developed for using this novel compound to accelerate the exhalation of very low vapor pressure compounds such as perfluorophenanthrene from the lungs. The addition of perfluorotetramethylcyclohexane, along with perfluorophenanthrene, greatly increases the rate at which the perfluorophenanthrene is exhaled.

Abstract: A toaster has electrical parts which are energized from a mains voltage. The bread is conveyed to a toasting chamber (4) by means of a lift (6) and a handle (12). In the end position of the handle (12) a main switch (SW5) is turned on, as a result of which the electrical parts can be powered from the mains voltage. The heating elements receive mains voltage via triacs controlled by a microcontroller. After completion of the toasting cycle the microcontroller turns off the heating elements, which precludes burning of the bread, even if the main switch remains in its on-position as a result of a mechanical defect. Subsequently, the microcontroller checks the presence of the mains voltage. In that case a signalling device is activated to warn the user that the mains voltage supply to the toaster has not yet been turned off.

Abstract: A system for conditioning the air within an enclosure which houses heat producing equipment. The system includes a passive heat removal system, for precooling the air, and a thermoelectric temperature control system used in conjunction with the passive heat removal system to achieve the necessary temperature control. A power control system includes a programmable control means which receives signals, from a temperature sensor, which are indicative of the temperature of the air in the enclosure. Based upon these signals, the power control system controls the activation of thermoelectric devices in the thermoelectric temperature control system and controls the activation of fans to remove a desired amount of heat from the air in the enclosure and discharge the unwanted heat to the outside air. A switching device operates to apply battery power to the power control system if the electrical power source for the thermoelectric temperature control system fails. A polarity reversal circuit reverses the DC polarity of the DC voltage applied to the thermoelectric devices to reverse the heat pumping of the thermoelectric devices in the situation where the air in the enclosure needs to be heated.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne une feuille magnétique composite qui possède d'excellentes caractéristiques d'absorption des ondes électromagnétiques. Cette feuille est obtenue en laminant, à l'aide de deux cylindres opposés, un mélange pulvérisé d'une poudre qui comprend des particules plates d'un matériau magnétique mou ainsi qu'un liant organique. Plusieurs de ces feuilles magnétiques composites, qui possèdent des surfaces dégrossies après laminage, sont empilées puis laminées jusqu'à ce que l'on atteigne une épaisseur voulue. Le laminage de deux feuilles magnétiques composites, entre lesquelles un réseau maillé métallique est pris en sandwich, permet de produire facilement une feuille qui limite les interférences électromagnétiques, et qui possède un bonne résistance mécanique. Afin de réduire la réflexion et la perméabilité des ondes électromagnétiques sur et à travers la feuille magnétique composite, les surfaces supérieure et inférieure de cette dernière sont soumise à un processus de gaufrage.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for combining antenna diversity (10,12) and gain control (15,19,17) in a communications system using a single chain of receiver characteristics. A number of input parameters related to various characteristics of a received signal are used to determine the quality of the received signal. The antenna diversity and gain control procedures are enabled or disabled based on the signal quality. The antenna diversity procedure estimates the signal level of the non-operational antenna using an infinite impulse response digital filter. The gain control procedure selects one of three gain paths based on the received signal strength.
