Abstract: The present invention relates to a method to treat non-woven sheet or web materials in order to achieve a fluid transfer capacity in one direction of the material different from the fluid transfer capacity in a crossing direction. The method involves a flexographic printing procedure for coating the material zone-wise with wetting or hydrophobizing agents. The printed nonwoven materials contain elongated, continuous hydrophilic stripes with elongated, continuous hydrophobic stripes between the hydrophilic stripes. The hydrophilic stripes transport fluid in the elongated direction, while the hydrophobic stripes prevent fluid transport to the cross direction. The nonwoven materials according to the invention can be used eg. as sublayers or transport layers in disposable, hygienic absorbent articles. <IMAGE>

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP96/01027 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 15, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 15, 1997 PCT Filed Mar. 9, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/28671 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 19, 1996The present invention pertains to a seal configuration for a flat flanged joint with a base part whose even seal reception surfaces are each bounded by an inner and an outer annular tooth and with two adhered seal bearings which, in a mounted condition, are confined between the flange surfaces, annular teeth and the base part. Due to the seal surfaces being even, the seal bearing is capable of flowing free within this chamber, especially when the flange surfaces are tilted with respect to the base part. Further, it is suggested to prepare the annular teeth and the even reception surcaes of the base part by embossing or milling. The following advantages are achieved: uniform surface pressure and thus good leakage performance, high blow-off safety, high component safety, low production costs, low mounting height, low notch stress cracking and low stress corrosion cracking.

Abstract: A process for producing woven or knitted fabrics having an improved fastness, high qualities, and the width as large as 150 cm from yarn-dyed raw silk while evading possible occurrence of defects caused by piece dyeing, such as shading, friction marks, creases or bending. The process comprises the step (3) of union dyeing of sericin which surrounds the silk and fibroin which is contained within the silk, the steps (4 and 5) of preparing yarn-dyed raw silk by doubling the dyed silk fibers followed by twisting, the step (6) of producing fabric by weaving or knitting the yarn-dyed raw silk, the step (7) of swelling the raw silk constituting the fabric in a hot-water bath, and the step (8) of enzymatic degumming by treating the fabric with an enzyme capable of hydrolyzing the sericin of the swollen yarn-dyed raw silk. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for determining ADP containing in a liquid sample by means of an enzymatic reaction, which comprises reacting the sample at 15 to 45  DEG C at least in the presence of glucose, ADP-dependent hexokinase, and oxidized NAD(P), a glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and one or more salts releasing ions selected among magnesium, cobalt, and manganese ions and then determining the ADP contained in the sample together with the AMP resulting from the reaction based on the amount of the reduced NAD(P) yielded. This method has advantages in that the limit of determination is high because ADP is determined based on the amount of the reduced NAD(P) yielded, and that since the reduced NAD (P) has a definite molecular extinction coefficient, the found value is highly reliable and uninfluenced by the reducing substances, etc., contained in the sample. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A label for an electrochemical cell with a condition tester for the cell integrated with the label to form a label/tester composite is disclosed. The label/tester composite has a thermochromic material in thermal contact with an electrically conductive material. A substructure containing a cured conductive material and preferably also a thermochromic material is formed on a releasable web and transferred from the releasable web to the inside surface of the heat shrinkable base film. A partition coating may be applied over the transferred conductive material. Preferably, a sheet of paper or plastic film having a large window opening therein for entrapping air is applied over the partition coating and aligned over the heat generating portion of the conductive material. The label/tester composite is applied to the cell housing with the insulating paper or plastic film with window opening against the cell housing. The tester may be activated by depressing one or two regions on its surface thereby connecting the conductive material to the terminals of the cell, whereupon the conductive material becomes heated causing a change in appearance of the thermochromic material to indicate the condition of the cell.

Abstract: An advantageous configuration of an adsorption medium in a drying plant is described. At least one cartridge containing the adsorption medium for a gas to be dried is removably disposed in a container of the drying plant. A pressure prevails between the adsorption medium and the cartridge such that the adsorption medium remains stationary in the cartridge, in particular even under changing operating and/or environmental conditions. Using the cartridge enables the adsorption medium to be changed rapidly and safely on site. In addition, the invention ensures a high quality of gas drying, in particular without the added risk of the particles being released. Different cartridges can also be used for different adsorption media and can therefore be optimized to suit the most varied of drying plants.

Abstract: The image processing system extracts a noisy temporal sample at a given location in the noisy image and delivers a corresponding recursively filtered temporal sample to construct a noise free image. The recursive temporal filter sums the corresponding sample from the preceding filtered image with the corresponding sample of the differences between the preceding noisy image and its filtered form. A recursion factor is used to weight the difference. A bi-dimensional spatial filter (F2D) is applied to the difference images to show the spatially coherent samples and provide a measure of the probability of movement of attached to the spatially coherent samples. A scalar function (f1) is applied to generate the recursion factor depending on the measure of probability of movement.

Abstract: Novel growth peptides derived from protein factors having molecular weights of about 22 and 45 kDa stimulate mitogenic activity of epithelial, but not fibroblastic cells, in particular, kidney epithelial cells. A source of the factors is scrape-wounded kidney epithelial cells in culture. Synthetic peptides having sixteen amino acids or less, in particular a hexapeptide, YPQGNH (SEQ ID NO: 2) maintain the mitogenic activity. The peptide AQPYPQGNHEASYG (14-Ser) (SEQ ID NO: 15) is effective in reversing acute renal failure in animals. The growth-promoting characteristics of the 22 and 45 kDa proteins and the peptides are useful in treating and diagnosing patients with kidney disease. Nucleotide sequences that encode the factor are useful to develop probes to locate similar factors, to identify genetic disorders involving the factor, and to produce the factor by genetic recombinant methods. The nucleotide sequences and fragments thereof, are also useful for diagnosis and treatment of kidney disorders.
