Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for removing impurities from waste water by electroflotation. The waste water to be cleaned is conducted through an electrolytic cell. Electrolysis is performed between two electrodes (1, 2) of different electronegativities, such that the more electronegative electrode (1), which is non-wearing in a cleaning process, is used for producing hydrogen gas and hydroxyl ions from water. The less electronegative electrode (2), which is an active, wearing electrode in a cleaning process, is used for producing metal ions in a solution to be cleaned. In addition to this basic reaction, a desired oxidation-reduction reaction is initiated in the cell in a strictly controlled electric field for removing one or more designated impurities from cleaned water.

Abstract: 1. The present invention provides a method for producing an isolated, genetically stable somatic cell line with a new phenotype, the method comprising the steps of: 
a) culturing a recombinant host somatic cell comprising a vector, said vector comprising a constitutively active promoter operatively linked to a sequence encoding a dominant negative allele of a mismatch repair gene, an internal ribosome entry site, and a negative selection marker, under conditions for the expression of the dominant negative allele, rendering the recombinant host somatic cell hypermutable and thereby producing a library of cells; 
b) selecting for clones from the cell library exhibiting new phenotypes; 
c) from the clones selected in step (b), negatively selecting for clones no longer expressing the dominant negative allele of a mismatch repair gene, rendering the resulting subclones genetically stable; and 
d) expanding a genetically stable subclone of step (c) to generate said genetically stable cell line.

Abstract: A hazard detector has an electronic circuit with a start-up program for causing emission of a local indicator signal, such as a flashing signal from a LED, if power and ground terminals of the detector are connected with proper orientation, i.e. polarity, to power and ground lines of a power supply. Through this means, a person installing the hazard detector can tell immediately after connection if the detector has been connected with proper orientation, and avoids the need for introducing a hazard such as heat or smoke to test the operation of the detector. A variation uses a more sophisticated program that disables, during a test mode, complex filtering algorithms that are used by detectors to block false alarm signals; if such filtering is not disabled, impedes normal testing of the detectors.

Abstract: Each memory cell of a magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) array has a magnetoresistive tunnel junction (MTJ) and a transistor coupled to the MTJ. Writing, occurs by write lines along rows and columns of the array. One set of the write lines is connected to the end of the MTJs that is not connected to the transistors. These write lines are thereby close to the MTJs and thus have good magnetic coupling to the MTJs, which is important in keeping write current low. These write lines are driven on one end by drivers. Sensing on the other hand occurs on a read bit line that is coupled to the end of the transistor of the memory cell that is not coupled to the MTJ. By having the sense amplifier(s) on a different line from the write drivers, sensing is not slowed by the capacitance of the write drivers.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for reducing exposure to an imaging beam is provided. In an embodiment, such an apparatus comprises a guiding catheter for insertion in the femoral artery until the tip of the guiding catheter is proximal to a blood clot in the brain of the patient. The guiding catheter can then receive a microcatheter which has an angioplasty balloon on the tip and which is passed through the guiding catheter. A graduation towards the proximal end of the microcatheter aligns with a gauge near the proximal end of the guiding catheter and thereby indicates when the microcatheter is about to exit the distal tip of the guiding catheter. The application of doses of an imaging beam can be avoided during the insertion of the microcatheter up to the point where the graduation aligns with the gauge, thereby reducing the amount of imaging beams that would be used during the procedure were the graduation and gauge to be absent.
