Patent EP-1311159-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NEWTON ADRIAN C
IPC: A01N37/06
Filed: 2001-07-27
Abstract: The present invention relates to a new agricultural composition and a method for protecting, enhancing the resistance of plants to infections by plant pathogens and increasing abiotic stress tolerance against cold, salinity and drought. The composition comprises a formulated mixture of resistance elicitors stimulating a number of signal transduction pathways within the plant. The formulated mixture is acting to stimulate a number of such signal transduction pathways thereby maximising the plants' potential resistance-related response to infection. The composition gives a stronger, more sustainable, and broader range of pathogen control than an elicitor preparation based upon a single active ingredient. The active ingredients consist of chitosan (C), omega-fatty acids (O), phosphate (P) and seaweed-derived extracts (S) (COPS). The composition can be applied to the plants by spraying, via fertigation systems or by coating seeds and can be applied to the leaves of the plants or to the roots.

Abstract: A circuit and method for detecting cardiac rhythm abnormalities employ unipolar
signals respectively obtained from a cardiac lead having a tip at which a number of separate
electrodes are disposed, the electrodes being simultaneously in contact with cardiac tissue.
The respective unipolar signals which are obtained from the multiple electrodes exhibit a
time relationship relative to each other, and this time relationship is analyzed to determine
whether a cardiac rhythm abnormality is present or one or more of the unipolar signals is
compared to a template which is known to represent a cardiac abnormality. Analysis of the
time relation is undertaken by determining the absolute value of a time offset between any
two of the unipolar signals, or by correlating any two of the unipolar signals.

Abstract: A method for forming a pultruded part includes collating reinforcing fibres by providing a first layer (16) of reinforcing rovings extending in the longitudinal pultrusion direction, applying onto the first layer an intermediate layer (18) of reinforcing fibres at least some of which include at least portions thereof which extend in the transverse direction and covering the intermediate layer with a second layer (17) of rovings extending in the longitudinal direction. To the collated fibres is applied a resin (14) so as to permeate through the layers and the materials are passed through a die to set the resin. The first (16) and second layers (17) are arranged to form first and second opposed surfaces (10E,10F) of the part with the intermediate layer (18) therebetween. The resin is a two part urethane resin which has sufficient strength to prevent the fibres from the first and second layers (16,17) at the first and second surfaces (10E,10F) respectively from breaking through the surface on bending of the wall thus allowing the use of the rovings at the surfaces with the transverse fibres therebetween so that the transverse fibres can be formed from loose or chopped fibre material from rovings rather than more expensive mat.
