Title: Contact block to be countersunk in an electroconducting casting provided for a therapeutic or aesthetic electrical treatment of the skin
IPC: A61N1/04
Filed: 1990-02-14
Granted: 1993-08-11
Abstract: The contact block (1), intended to ensure the passage of a current for therapeutic or aesthetic treatment of the skin of a subject (5) from a cable (2) connected to a suitable generator in an electroconductive cast (6), comprises a plate (3) of elastomer charged with a conducting powder in contact with the core of the cable (2), and an insulating lining (4) cast onto a first face and the edge of the plate (3) lying flush with the second exposed face (3b). The block (1) rests via its lining (4) on a first layer (6a) of the cast (6), which is applied to the skin of the subject (5). A second cast layer (6b) is applied on top of the first layer (6a), in electrical continuity with the latter, and covers the second exposed face (3b) of the plate (3). Thus, the current cannot pass directly through the first layer (6a) of the plate (3) to the underlying skin of the subject (5), which avoids burns due to excessive current density.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of producing increased amounts of a protein of interest in a cell by induction. The method includes transfecting a cell with multiple copies of an expression vector, each copy of which includes an expressible gene encoding an enzymatically functional dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) and an expressible gene encoding a protein of interest. Transfected cells are cultured in the presence of methotrexate (MTX) to produce a plurality of clones. A clone containing plural copy number of the vectors which co-express DHFR and the protein of interest is then selected and cultured. The cultured clone is treated with MTX to enhance the expression of the protein of interest by inducing an increase in transcription without substantially amplifying the genes encoding the protein of interest and DHFR.

Abstract: Les ombres (et les lumière) colorées dans une reproduction d'image en couleurs, dues à des sensibilités limitées dans les différents canaux d'un appareil d'analyse d'images, comme une caméra vidéo à plusieurs couleurs, sont efficacement éliminées par un ajustement régulé de l'intensité des signaux de sortie d'un des canaux selon que le niveau de ce signal se situe, ou non, dans une région limitée de la caractéristique de réponse de la caméra. Tant que le niveau du signal du canal concerné (par exemple, le canal de la bande de couleur bleue) se situe dans une partie non-limitée de l'intervalle de sensibilité de la caméra pour ce canal, l'intensité des signaux de sortie de ce canal ne change pas. Cependant, lorsque le niveau des signaux de sortie du canal se situe dans une partie limitée de l'intervalle de sensibilité de la caméra, l'intensité des signaux de sortie de ce canal est alors efficacement corrigée en substituant à ces signaux les signaux de sortie d'un autre canal de la caméra (par exemple le canal du vert), dont l'intervalle dynamique s'étend au-delà des possibilités du canal limité. En conséquence, au niveau de l'image reproduite, les zones, comme les ombres ou les parties lumineuses, ayant des niveaux d'intensité proches d'une des extrémités de l'intervalle de sensibilité de la caméra, ont tendance à être neutres et offrent aussi une image de meilleure qualité.

Abstract: Luminescent silicon incorporating semiconductor quantum wires is made using a semiconductor wafer 14 as starting material. The wafer 14 is weakly doped p type with a shallow heavily doped p layer therein for current flow uniformity purposes. The wafer 14 is anodised in 20% aqueous hydrofluoric acid to produce a layer 5  mu m thick with 70% porosity and good crystallinity. The layer is subsequently etched in concentrated hydrofluoric acid, which provides a slow etch rate. The etch increases porosity to a level in the region of 80% or above. At such a level, pores overlap and isolated quantum wires are expected to form with diameters less than or equal to 3 nm. The etched layer exhibits photoluminescence emission at photon energies well above the silicon bandgap (1.1 eV) and extending into the red region (1.6 - 2.0 eV) of the visible spectrum.

Abstract: A process for the utilisation of waste materials is described, in which unsorted refuse is subjected to at least one high-temperature treatment. In the process, the waste material is initially compressed in batches to form compact packages, with the inclusion of any liquid portions present and retaining its mixed and composite structure. With the pressure stress being maintained, it is then introduced in a form-fitting manner into a duct heated to over 100 DEG C and kept here sliding in frictional contact with the walls of the duct until the liquids initially present have evaporated and mechanical restoration forces of individual waste components have been removed. Thermal degassing is carried out at least partially. The crumbling solids conglomerate, which is ejected from the duct so as to be dimensionally stable and structurally stable in this form, is introduced into a high-temperature reactor held at at least 1000 DEG C and here forms a gas-permeable packing. The liquid residues, if appropriate after separating off at least some of the metallic components using the energy of the gases produced in the degassing of the waste materials, are transferred in one process variant into a second high-temperature melt. From this melt, together with a significant part of its inherent energy, completely inert high-grade industrial products are produced in semi-manufactured and/or finished form.

Abstract: Apparatus for de-icing aircraft were previously mounted as special-purpose lorries on lorry chassis or low-loaders which were stationed on the respective airfield. The operator sprayed the vehicle from a separate, usually hydraulic working basket which could be moved into an elevated position. Preferably for provisional airfields, especially in the military field, and for performing de-icing on small, permanent airfields it is necessary to provide a de-icing apparatus which is substantially smaller and lighter in weight and which can be easily transported to any desired place of use in the form of a container. For this purpose, the de-icing apparatus is accommodated within a self-bearing frame and has an internal combustion engine as its own power supply unit which on the one hand drives a generator for supplying all the electrical units and on the other hand drives a pump for supplying the hydraulically operated components. In addition, all the pipes conducting the de-icing agent, screws and valves are laid without sharp inner edges and with internal rounded portions which are as large as possible. <IMAGE>
