Abstract: A method for determining the weight of foods (9) contained in a microwave oven (1) and for controlling their treatment, said oven (1) comprising a cooking chamber (4) and a microwave generator or magnetron (2), said determination being made by measuring the heating of a body (12) of microwave-sensitive material disposed in said chamber (4), during a stage of operation of the magnetron (2) at a predetermined power for a predetermined time, wherein the heating of said body (12), disposed on a wall (6) of the cooking chamber (4) which is not screened by the foods (9), is measured by comparing the variation in the electrical characteristics of components (16, 17) disposed external to said chamber (4) in a position corresponding with said body (12) and in a position corresponding with a part of said wall which is not associated with said body respectively. 
     The method is implemented by a device comprising a body (12) constructed of microwave-sensitive material disposed, in a position not screened by the foods (9), at any point on a wall (5, 6, 7) of the cooking chamber, and electrical components (16, 17) of temperature-variable characteristics disposed external to said chamber in a position corresponding with said body and in a position corresponding with a part of said wall which is not associated with said body respectively.

Abstract: A cleanable ultrafiltration device (10) and method of making same is the subject of the present invention. The device (10) comprises a housing (12) for receiving a feed stream of a liquid to be filtered and a membrane cartridge (14) disposed in the housing (12) for separating the feed stream into concentrate and permeate. The cartridge (14) is disposed within that housing (12) in spaced relationship to accommodate the flow of the feed stream around the periphery of the cartridge (14) along its length. A plastic netting (26) is typically used for the cartridge/housing spacer (25). A potted end seal (28) blocks the flow of the by-pass feed stream at the outlet end (18) of the cartridge/housing assembly and forces all of the feed stream through the cartridge (14). This approach improves operating efficiency by elimination of the wasted by-pass flow associated with the prior art design, while maintaining module cleanability.

Abstract: The invention relates to fusion proteins for prodrug activation of the general formula huTuMAb-L- beta -gluc, where huTuMAb is a humanised or human tumour-specific monoclonal antibody or a fragment thereof, L is a linker and  beta -gluc comprises human  beta -glucuronidase. These fusion proteins are prepared by genetic manipulation. huTuMAb ensures specific location of tumours, L connects huTuMAb to  beta -gluc in a way which does not hinder the specific properties of the two fusion partners, and  beta -gluc activates a suitable prodrug compound by elimination of glucuronic acid, and owing to the humanised or human fusion partner a virtually autologous system is available for use in humans.

Abstract: In a continuous method for removal of dirt residues from metallic waste, particularly metallic waste occurring in household waste, the waste is rinsed with water, preferably in a two-stage rinsing drum (9). 
To avoid or reduce unwanted water outflows, and to make use of the removed dirt, the washing water carrying the removed dirt is subjected to an exothermal wet oxidation process at elevated temperature and pressure in a reactor (50) and then at least partly returned to the rinsing drum (9), via a sludge settling vessel (42). The heat produced in the wet oxidation can be used for example for heat exchange and for power generation.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for measuring a bodily constituent such as glucose or cholesterol by taking the sample taken from the body such as blood, saliva or urine. The sample is placed on a test strip inserted into the test block portion of the apparatus where the portion of the sample containing the constituent desired to be measured reacts with a chemical reagent. Products of this reaction have an absorbance/reflectance characteristic which is mathematically related to the concentration of the constituent in the bodily sample. The reflected light is absorbed by a photodiode and the output of the photodiode converted to a digital form where a microprocessor can calculate the concentration of the constituent using the mathematical relationship between the reflected light and concentration stored in memory means of the apparatus.

Abstract: A hot coke bed (32) is established at the bottom of a vertical shaft furnace, e.g. an iron melting cupola (2). The cupola (2) is then charged with alternate layers (34) and (36) of ferrous metal and coke respectively. Burners (18) burn hydrocarbon fuel in the presence of a stoichiometric excess of oxygen-enriched air and thus form a hot gas mixture including oxygen. The hot gas mixture passes upwards through the shaft (4) of the cupola (2) thereby providing sufficient heat to melt the ferrous metal. Molten ferrous metal flows downwards under gravity into and through the coke bed (32) and may be removed through a tap hole (28). At least one jet of oxygen is injected into the hot coke bed (32) so as to maintain it at a temperature sufficient to superheat the molten metal. Preferably a fan (11) is operated to dilute with air the combustion gases above the level of the charge in the shaft (4) and thereby create secondary flames. No air blast is supplied to the cupola. A significant degree of superheating can be achieved while keeping down the proportion of environmentally undesirable components (i.e. particulates and carbon monoxide) in the gas exhausted from the cupola.

Abstract: An automatic frequency control circuit mounted on a mobile station in mobile communication. The automatic frequency control circuit performs feedback control of an oscillation frequency of a local oscillator used in conversion of a reception frequency to an intermediate frequency signal in response to the count result of the frequency of the intermediate frequency signal. If a receiver is not in the hand-off state, counting is performed for comparatively long time; if in the hand-off state, counting is performed for comparatively short time conforming to required stabilization performance at hand off. Occurrence of variations in count values caused by fading is detected, and only the count values worthy of trust are used as a base of control. A level drop caused by fading is compensated by self-oscillation.
