Abstract: Positive and negative ion output are balanced in an electrical ionizer having positive and negative ion emitters, and positive and negative high voltage power supplies associated with the respective positive and negative ion emitters. At least one of the positive and negative high voltage power supplies switches between a high state and a low state. An ion balance sensor is located close to the ion emitters and outputs a voltage value. An ion balance sensor set point voltage value is stored. The voltage value is set to provide a balanced ion condition in the work space near the electrical ionizer. During operation of the electrical ionizer, the output voltage value of the ion balance sensor is compared with the set point voltage value. One of the switchable high voltage power supplies is switched to a high state when it is detected as a result of the comparison that the output voltage value of the ion balance sensor exceeds the set point voltage value in a first direction by a first predetermined amount, and the one of the switchable high voltage power supplies is switched to a low state when it is detected as a result of the comparison that the output voltage value of the ion balance sensor exceeds the set point voltage value in a second direction by a second predetermined amount, the second direction being opposite of the first direction.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention provides a method for selecting, from a repertoire of polypeptides, a population of functional polypeptides which bind a target ligand in a first binding site and a generic ligand in a second binding site, which generic ligand is capable of binding functional members of the repertoire regardless of target ligand specificity, comprising the steps of: a) contacting the repertoire with the generic ligand and selecting functional polypeptides bound thereto; and b) contacting the selected functional polypeptides with the target ligand and selecting a population of polypeptides which bind to the target ligand. The invention accordingly provides a method by which a polypeptide repertoire is preselected, according to functionality as determined by the ability to bind the generic ligand, and the subset of polypeptides obtained as a result of such preselection is then employed for further selection according to the ability to bind the target ligand.

Abstract: A device for measuring the volume flow of a fluid in a pipe comprises at least two objects to be arranged in the pipe. By means of sensors, the frequencies can be determined with which vortices occur which arise behind the respective objects upon the fluid flowing round the objects. The objects are of so different a shape and/or diameter that at least one of the vortex frequencies thereby determined is independent of a pulsation frequency possibly arising in the approach velocity of the fluid. A sensor is present for determining this pulsation frequency, while further means are present for determining the approach velocity from that vortex frequency or those vortex frequencies for which it holds that the ratio between the vortex frequency and the pulsation frequency lies outside an interval (0.4, 2.5).

Abstract: An assembly such as an anchor screw, bone plate, offset hook, post, transverse connector or other spinal anchor for anchoring to bone and clamping a linkage such as a rod, wire cable or the like. The assembly has a top member with an open slot to receive the linkage, and a twist-lock closure cap to close the open end, capturing the linkage in the slot. One closure cap fits over and around the top member, with a set of segmented protrusions that extend through a corresponding set of protruding flange segments spaced about the circumference of the top member. The cap is configured to rotate and lock against the top member like a flange-locking bayonet mount when turned through a limited degree of rotation. Slots may be provided through the face of the closure cap allowing reduction tabs to project through the cap, and the locking cap may be adapted to a range of screw, eye, hook, post, connector and other anchor assemblies to securely clamp the linkage by use of a rotation tool disposed along an access path aligned with the axis of the screw, thus requiring no lateral clearance along the longitudinal direction of the linkage element. Locking is effected by a set screw that passes through the cap and tightens against the linkage to firmly immobilize it in the anchor assembly. Another cap embodiment fits into the center of the head with a partial twist locking motion. Opposed locking surfaces prevent slippage in the radial direction, and a sloping contact floor surface may apply torque to further increase pressure on urge mating detent features in an adjacent wall.

Abstract: An improved forward error correction (FEC) technique for coding speech data provides an encoder module which primary-encodes an input speech signal using a primary synthesis model to produce primary-encoded data, and redundant-encodes the input speech signal using a redundant synthesis model to produce redundant-encoded data. A packetizer combines the primary-encoded data and the redundant-encoded data into a series of packets and transmits the packets over a packet-based network, such as an Internet Protocol (IP) network. A decoding module primary-decodes the packets using the primary synthesis model, and redundant-decodes the packets using the redundant synthesis model. The technique provides interaction between the primary synthesis model and the redundant synthesis model during and after decoding to improve the quality of a synthesized output speech signal. Such "interaction," for instance, may take the form of updating states in one model using the other model.
