Abstract: A silicone paint brush artist's tool includes a handle and a novel painting tip. The painting tip is made of a resilient silicone having a generally three-dimensional paint contacting working surface that has a maximum cross-sectional diameter no larger than a maximum cross-sectional diameter of the handle. The tip is preferably attached to the handle using a ferrule and expansively locking the tip into a cavity of the ferrule by insertion of an insert. The insert may be a common screw or a barbed, fluted extension of the handle. The tips may include an insert cavity and have various shapes and hardnesses and may be optionally color coded. A formation method for the tool is disclosed with simultaneous insert insertion and joining of ferrules to handles. The ferrules also may be reversibly attached to the handle, in which case a kit comprising multiple interchangeable painting tips may be provided.

Abstract: The invention provides improved methods and products based on adenoviral materials which can advantageously be used in for instance gene therapy. In one aspect an adenoviral vector is provided which has no overlap with a suitable packaging cell line which is another aspect of the invention. This combination excludes the possibility of homologous recombination, thereby excluding the possibility of the formation of replication competent adenovirus. In another aspect an adenovirus based helper construct which by its size is incapable of being encapsidated. This helper virus can be transferred into any suitable host cell making it a packaging cell. Further a number of useful mutations to adenoviral based materials and combinations of such mutations are disclosed, which all have in common the safety of the methods and the products, in particular avoiding the production of replication competent adenovirus and/or interference with the immune system. Further a method of intracellular amplification is provided.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP96/02225 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 21, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 21, 1997 PCT Filed May 23, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/37141 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 28, 1996The invention concerns a pressure-deformable wiper cushion for wiping misted and/or dirty in particular flat surfaces such as the insides of vehicle windows. The cushion has a bag-shaped cleaning cover the outside of which during wiping comes into contact with the surface being cleaned; and a cushion filling enclosed by and filling out the cleaning cover on the inside. As a way of significantly improving the wiping effect even on dry surfaces, while maintaining ease of use, it is proposed that a container should take the place of part of the cushion filling in the cushion interior and should comprise a reservoir section and a closable neck, and that a mechanically operated spray head should be incorporated in the neck and fitted with a spray nozzle outside the cover.

Abstract: A painting wagon carries a plurality of components to be painted through a painting facility. The wagon includes a component supporting assembly having a plurality of opposed pairs of component mounting pins fixed thereto. The component supporting assembly is supported by a base structure having wheels which permit the painting wagon to be translated. The component supporting assembly may be selectively adjusted between a contracted configuration in which each of the pairs of opposed mounting pins, and thus the components mounted thereon, are oriented in contracted proximity to one another, so as to minimize the overall size of the wagon with the components mounted thereon to accommodate given dimensional limitations of the painting facility and an expanded configuration in which the pairs of opposed mounting pins, and thus the components mounted thereon, are oriented so as to be expanded apart from one another so that individual components may be mounted and dismounted onto the component mounting pins with reduced danger of bumping an adjacently mounted component and thus damaging the surface finish of the components.

Abstract: The present invention refers to the use of multiple gradients (of chemical denutarants, thermal denaturants and of porosity of the gel matrix) for the separation of DNA fragments, amplified by PCR, normal or carrying point mutations, by zone electrophoresis on gel slabs or by capillary electrophoresis in presence of viscous polymer solutions (linear or branched). Such method can be extended to the analysis of mutations in proteins and to the optimization of, e.g., chiral separations in capillaries. The invention includes the use of binary gradients (chemical and porosity gradients or thermal and porosity gradients) or the simultaneous use of 3 gradients for point mutations having a very high melting point. In the case of capillary electrophoresis, the invention extends also to the use of batteries of capillaries, for the simultaneous analysis of a number of samples. Additionally, the invention includes the detection of DNA fragments (or of proteins and other analytes) by laser-induced fluorescence detection and the possibility of operating, in capillary electrophoresis, with mixed polymer solutions and with polyacrylamides obtained with monomers highly resistant to hydrolysis.

Abstract: Un système d'imagerie optique ayant une géométrie de Rowland peut être utilisé dans un spectromètre pour fluorescence à rayons X. Pour la focalisation du faisceau des rayons X sortant du spécimen à analyser, on peut utiliser un cristal d'analyseur incurvé (28) dont le rayon de courbure peut être variable, comme c'est le cas d'une surface de cristal (29) ayant la forme d'une spirale logarithmique (40). Si un tel cristal d'analyseur doit être conçu suffisamment grand pour atteindre l'intensité adéquate dans le détecteur à rayons X, une partie du cristal devrait avoir un rayon de courbure inférieur à ce qui est possible, afin d'éviter la fracture du cristal. Selon cette invention, une première partie (40) de la surface réfléchissante (29) possède un rayon de courbure qui dépend de la position sur le cristal, alors qu'une autre partie (42) à la surface réfléchissante possède un rayon de courbure (44) constant. Une partie de cristal ayant un rayon de courbure constant possède des écarts angulaires, mais, tant que ces écarts angulaires sont inférieurs à une valeur limite donnée (pas très basse), il peut être ignoré par rapport à d'autres écarts plus grands de la partie en spirale logarithmique. Ces écarts plus grands se produisent notablement lorsqu'un miroir multicouche est choisi pour le cristal d'analyseur (28).

Abstract: A golf club shaft is described which has an upper grip portion with significantly greater diameter than the largest diameter of the lower power portion, with the two portions joined by an S-shaped transition portion. The large diameter of the grip portion permits recreational players or players with relatively weak hands to exert more power and greater control of the fine movements of the club shaft and golf club. The grip section has a minimum diameter at least 35% greater than the maximum diameter of the power section and the transition section has a length not greater than 15% of the overall length of the shaft. The shaft may be made of any convenient material which can be formed into the curves of the transition section without imposing undue stresses in the curved portions. The shaft may be formed of metal or, preferably, a fiber/polymer composite material. The shaft permits the typical recreational player to improve his or her game by being able to obtain significantly better control of the alignment of club face and ball during the swing and shot, without requiring any increase in the player's normal hand and wrist gripping strength. It is also of utility for players who have arthritis or other debilitating conditions in their hands and wrists, in that it permits them to play better with their limited gripping ability, and in some cases permits resumption of limited play where to play at all had become unacceptably difficult because of the physical problems.
