Abstract: A specific and sensitive in vitro ELISA assay and diagnostic test kit is disclosed for determining levels of NT-proBNP protein in a variety of bodily fluids, non-limiting examples of which are blood, serum, plasma, urine and the like. The NT-proBNP ELISA assay test employs the sandwich ELISA technique to measure circulating NT-proBNP in human plasma. In order to obtain antibodies with specific binding properties for targeted amino acid sequences within human proBNP, recombinant human proBNP (or rhproBNP) was expressed and purified for use as an immunogen. Polyclonal antibodies (PAb) to specific amino acid sequences were subsequently purified from goat serum by sequential affinity purification. Monoclonal antibodies were raised against specific polypeptides; Recombinant human NT-proBNP (or rhNT-proBNP) was expressed and purified in order to obtain material for use in calibration of a quantitative method for measurement of human NT-proBNP.

Abstract: In the cyclic preparation of a length of curds by draining a mixture of whey and curds in an upright column, formed by a permeable casing (2), the preparation cycle consists of at least three parts: a thickening phase and an extrusion phase from the column and a lateral discharge phase of the length of curds. The mixture is supplied to one end of the casing (2) and a length of the thickened mass of curds is removed periodically at the other end of the casing (2). The whey/curds column inside the casing (2) is moved forwards at slow speed in the longitudinal direction of the casing (2) during the thickening phase of the preparation cycle, the thickening phase and the extrusion phase taking place at the same time. The discharge phase of the cycle takes place when the column is stationary, within a time span which is less than 20% of the thickening phase and extrusion phase.

Abstract: Two pieces of metal are bonded together at a surface by placing the two pieces into contact at the surface and forging the two pieces in a die which causes substantial displacement of the metal originally at the surface in a direction parallel to and outwardly from the edges of the surface and into vents in the face of the die and within the die impressions. The strain and displacement fields are controlled by the die and vent geometry which is designed to concentrate the strain and displacement along the original bondline. In this way, up to 99.9 %+ of the defects which are potientially present at the original surface are efficiently displaced with moving metal away from the original contact between the two pieces of metal into sacrificial ribs that form in the vents and the remaining defects are subjected to significant strain. A portion of the displaced metal which contains many of the defects and which forms the sacrificial ribs is removed from the resulting bonded workpiece as the sacrificial ribs are removed from the workpiece. The result is a bond with superior properties and with a bond surface which can be located very precisely both in orientation and location (e.g., radial distance from the center of a disk). This system is particularly appropriate for forming dual-alloy high-pressure turbine disks for gas turbines in which an annular peripheral ring of a second superalloy is bonded to a central core of a first superalloy. The system is particularly effective if, prior to forging, surfaces to be bonded are closely shape-conforming, are very clean, and are diffusion-bonded using hot isostatic pressing while the surfaces are gas-free. The sacrificial ribs are formed by vents in the impressions of the forging dies. The vents are adjacent to the outer edges of the bond surface. The system may be accomplished by using one or more strikes in the same dies or same die geometry, or may include multiple strikes in which only one side of the bond is in proximity to a vent during each strike. Subsequent strikes would process the bondline resulting from the previous strikes, but with the rib removed. The die impressions would be so shaped that the resulting die cavity  would closely conform to the original workpiece shape, except for the vents, so that metal displacement and strain would be concentrated at the bondline.

Abstract: There is a clear distinction between hand driven, simple wheel chairs and much higher developed motor driven wheel chairs. The invention provides for a compromise, where a wheel chair of a simple design is or can be provided with a special driving unit (30), which as a self-contained unit, may serve to drive the wheel chair by having one or more driving wheels (32) located between the main wheels (26) of the chair in direct driving engagement with the ground. The driving unit can be secured in such a manner that the driving wheel or wheels (32) may move up and down relative to the main wheels (26), such that a driving engagement can be maintained during driving along a non-planar ground surface. The unit is well suited for mounting on both new and existing wheel chairs. When the driving wheel or wheels (32) are placed accurately midways between the ground engaging portions of the main wheels there will be no problems with respect to lateral dragging of the driving wheels in response to changes of the driving direction.

Abstract: A combustion apparatus comprises a mixture feeding pipe (1) through which a mixture of pulverized coal and combustion air flows. The mixture is injected into a furnace (2) through the mixture feeding pipe and then ignited. A radial outwardly flared flame maintaining ring (3) is provided at the tip end of the mixture feeding pipe. The flame maintaining ring is under a reduction atmosphere and exposed to high temperatures due to radiant heat from the furnace. Therefore, there is a possibility of burnout of the flame maintaining ring or growth of slag on the flame maintaining ring. In order to prevent this, a projection (6) is disposed to extend into the furnace beyond the flame maintaining ring so as to shut off radiation from the inside of the furnace to the flame maintaining ring adequately, thereby suppressing an excessive temperature rise. Combustion air flows along the surface of the projection so as to locate the projection under an oxidation atmosphere. A pulverized coal/air separating member (7) extends through within the mixture feeding pipe. A portion where separation of the flow is forcibly occurred is formed locally in a conical end portion (II) of the pulverized coal/air separating member. It is therefore possible to effect a combustion in a stabilized manner as a whole regardless of the unit capacity and load of the combustion apparatus. <IMAGE>
