Abstract: A near-real-time tracking and integrated forecasting of marine ice bodies observable on satellite imagery. Oil and gas production operations in new regions, such as the Arctic, have dramatically increased over the past few years. This increasing activity makes it more likely that fixed or floating production platforms, drill ships, and other structures will be used in these regions. A concern for these types of structures in such regions is potential for damage caused by ice bodies that are uncontrolled and floating in the water, such as icebergs, ice floes, and other moving ice bodies.

Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing a method for storing mammalian cells over a long period of time with the use of a solution for cell transplantation by which cell death can be effectively suppressed during the storage of the mammalian cells, and the solution for cell transplantation. The present invention is characterized in that mammalian cells are stored in a physiological aqueous solution for cell transplantation, said solution containing 2.0-6.0 (w/v)% of trehalose, a derivative thereof or a salt of the same (trehalose compound) and 4.0-7.0 (w/v)% of dextran, a derivative thereof or a salt of the same (dextran compound). Owing to the effects of the trehalose compound and dextran compound contained in the physiological aqueous solution for cell transplantation, a lowering in the survival rate of the mammalian cells can be suppressed in the case of storing the mammalian cells over a long period of time (at least 14 days). The physiological aqueous solution is preferably selected from the group consisting of lactate Ringer solution, physiological saline, Ringer solution and acetate Ringer solution. Particularly preferable examples thereof include lactate Ringer solution and physiological saline.

Granted: 2023-12-19
Abstract: The application relates to a method and system for recording auditory steady- state responses of a person, the method comprising a) providing an acoustic stimulus signal to an ear of the person, b) recording the auditory steady- state responses of the person originating from said acoustic stimulus signal. The object of the present application is to excite the auditory system with a signal capable of assessing the auditory systems ability to process speech. The problem is solved in that the acoustic stimulus signal comprises a speech-like stimulus provided as a combination of a series of frequency-specific stimuli, each having a specified (e.g. predetermined) frequency bandwidth, repetition rate, amplitude and amplitude modulation. In an embodiment, the method and system comprises quantizing the amplitude modulations in time and/or level. An advantage of the disclosure is that it allows a clinical assessment of the effect of a hearing device in a normal mode of operation, i.e. when processing speech stimuli. The invention may e.g. be used for diagnostic instruments for verifying the fitting of a hearing aid.
