Abstract: A container for holding a material, such as food, beverage or medicine, includes a cap and a container body. The container body has a material cavity (214) unitarily formed with a reactant cavity (216). The reactant cavity contains a solid reactant (246), and the cap (212) contains a liquid reactant (236) that, when mixed, produce an endothermic or exothermic reaction, depending upon the reactants selected. The cap has a tubular body section with an actuator disc (228) closing one end and a breakable barrier (234) closing the other end. With the exception of the barrier, the cap is of unitary construction. The cap has one or more prongs (230) extending from the inner surface of the disc toward the barrier. When a user depresses the actuator disc, it flexes inwardly and moves the prongs toward the barrier. The reactants mix when the prongs puncture the barrier. Heat transferred between the two cavities heats or cools the material The wall (224) of the container that defined the reactant cavity may be pleated (216) or corrugated to promote heat transfer.

Abstract: A system for locating objects in space, such as medical instruments within the body of a patient, based upon transmission of magnetic fields from coils in a fixed frame of reference to sensors on the object or visa-versa. The current supplied to the coils is adjusted to assure that the sensors receive fields within a preselected range of magnitudes regardless of the location of the object in space. This assures that the sensor operates within its optimum range, and permits use of compact transmitters and sensors.

Abstract: A method for directly imaging a lithographic printing surface using infrared radiation without the requirement of pre- or post-UV-light exposure, or heat treatment employs a printing plate which contains a support with a hydrophilic surface overcoated with an imaging layer. The imaging layer contains at least one polymer having bonded pendent groups which are hydroxy, carboxylic acid, tert-butyl-oxycarbonyl, sulfonamide, amide, nitrile, urea, or combinations thereof; as well as an infrared absorbing compound. The imaging layer may contain a second polymer which has bonded pendent groups which are 1,2-napthoquinone diazide, hydroxy, carboxylic acid, sulfonamide, hydroxymethyl amide, alkoxymethyl amide, nitrile, maleimide, urea, or combinations thereof. The imaging layer may also contain a visible absorption dye, a solubility inhibiting agent, or both. In practice, the imaging layer is imagewise exposed to infrared radiation to produce exposed image areas in the imaged layer which have transient solubility in aqueous alkaline developing solution, so that solubility is gradually lost over a period of time until the imaged areas become as insoluble as non-imaged areas. Within a short time period of the imaging exposure, the imaged layer is developed with an aqueous alkaline developing solution to form the lithographic printing surface. In this method, the infrared radiation preferably is laser radiation which is digitally controlled.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for filling a container (35) with sufficient accuracy and yet more quickly than the standard method, which consists in filling with at least two discrete flow rates. In a so-called main phase, the liquid is introduced with at least one first flow rate; in a so-called terminal phase, the liquid is introduced with a second flow rate. The first flow rate is such that, if it is maintained, the filling accuracy would be affected, and the second flow rate is such that it enables to curtail the perturbations induced by the first flow rate. The invention also concerns a valve (1, 2, 15, 16) for implementing said method.

Abstract: Matrices that support cell adhesion and growth are disclosed that deliver low heparin-binding affinity growth factor protein peptides in a controlled manner. These matrices comprise covalently or non-covalently bound heparin or heparin-like polymers, which serve to sequester the low heparin-binding affinity growth factor protein peptides within the matrix. The controlled release of some low heparin-binding affinity growth factor or peptides thereof occurrs by degradation of some matrix component or dissociation of the low heparin-binding affinity growth factor protein peptides from the bound heparin. This differs from many controlled delivery devices in that release is not controlled solely by diffusion, and the rate of release may therefore be regulated by altering the rate of degradation of the matrix component or the amount of heparin bound within the matrix. The controlled release of such low heparin-binding affinity growth factor proteins such as NGF beta , NT-3 and BDNF, is demonstrated. The invention also identifies basic domains that can be utilized to identify other low heparin-binding affinity growth factor protein peptides useful in delivery as part of the matrices described herein.

Abstract: In a network with a sending system networked to at least one receiving system, it is sometimes desirable to transfer relatively short messages between the sending system and one or more receiving systems in a highly reliable yet highly efficient manner. The present invention defines two short message protocols, one of which relies on a statistical model and the other of which uses positive acknowledgement to track receipt of transmitted packets by intended recipient. The statistical reliability mode is based on the observation that for each packet in a message that is transmitted, the probability that at least one packet of the message is received by a given system increases. Thus, in the statistical reliability mode messages are divided into a guaranteed minimum number of packets, with additional packets being added if the message length is insufficient to fill the minimum number of packets. The positive reliability mode of the present invention periodically sets an acknowledgement flag in the packets transmitted for a message. Receiving systems send an acknowledgement in response to receipt of that packet. The sending system tracks receipt of acknowledgements by intended recipient and retransmits any unacknowledged packets so as to positively assure the packets are received. Receiving systems send negative acknowledgements to request retransmission of missing packets. Negative acknowledgement suppression is implemented at both the sender and receiver to prevent a flood of negative acknowledgements from overwhelming the network. Packets are transmitted by the sending system at a transmission rate selected to avoid any adverse impact on the packet loss rate of the network.
