Abstract: A method of determining carbon content of a heat during an oxygen blow into a BOF vessel. The light intensity emitted from the BOF vessel is measured by measuring an (ILI) value indicative of an increase, and a (DLI) value indicative of a decrease in light intensity emitted from the vessel, and calculating a DLI/ILI ratio. The amount of oxygen blown into the vessel is measured and the in-blow % carbon content of the heat is calculated using the ratio and the amount of oxygen blown. The oxygen blow into the vessel is stopped when the calculated carbon content is equal to an aim carbon for the heat, and the heat is then tapped for further processing into a finished steel product. Also claimed are a further two methods of determining carbon content of a heat during an oxygen blow into a BOF vessel. Also claimed are two apparatus for determining in-blow % carbon content in a BOF vessel. Also claimed is a light meter.

Abstract: Sensor includes electrically deformable measuring cell (2), which has mountings (5,6) and cross members (7) connected by elastic hinges (8). Deformation of cell is due to application of force to be measured. A digital system (3) is used to measure displacement representative of cell deformation, and generates digital signal corresponding to direct measurement of force applied. Digital system has a digital axis (12) and an incremental rule (13) fixed to the measuring cell by mounting (6) and a measuring head (14) is fixed on frame (9) of manipulator arm. Sensor is associated with a stop (15) for adjustment of stop position of the measuring cell at its null deformation point which corresponds to the absence of any applied force on cell.

Abstract: The present invention provides a chimeric adenovirus fiber protein, which differs from the wild-type coat protein by the introduction of a nonnative amino acid sequence in a conformationally-restrained manner. Such a chimeric adenovirus fiber protein according to the invention is able to direct entry into cells of a vector comprising the chimeric fiber protein that is more efficient than entry into cells of a vector that is identical except for comprising a wild-type adenovirus fiber protein rather than the chimeric adenovirus fiber protein. The nonnative amino acid sequences encodes a peptide motif that comprises an epitope for an antibody, or a ligand for a cell surface receptor, that can be employed in cell targeting. The present invention also pertains to vectors comprising such a chimeric adenovirus fiber protein, and to methods of using such vectors.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are described for treating cardiovascular diseases with an embolization coil placement system utilizing an embolization coil and a pusher device. The embolization coil includes a releasable attachment mechanism with a deformable ring-shaped member for connecting the embolization coil to a hydraulic pressure actuated coil release mechanism on the pusher device. The coil release mechanism includes a coil mounting wire with a bulbous distal portion that extends distally from a proximal tubular portion of the pusher device. A small inflatable balloon is mounted on the pusher device surrounding the coil mounting wire and fluidly connected to the proximal tubular portion. The embolization coil delivery system is prepared for use by crimping the deformable ring-shaped member around the deflated balloon member and the mounting wire. The bulbous distal portion of the mounting wire retains the crimped ring-shaped member on the pusher device. A target site in the vascular system is catheterized with a microcatheter. Then, the pusher device with the embolization coil mounted on it is inserted into the microcatheter and advanced to the target site. Once the embolization coil is in position, the inflatable balloon is pressurized with a syringe or inflation device connected to a hub on the proximal tubular portion of the pusher device. As the inflatable balloon member expands, it deforms the ring-shaped member to release the embolization coil from the pusher device. The balloon member is then deflated and the pusher device is withdrawn. In this way, one or more embolization coils may be inserted to occlude the target site by creating a physical barrier to blood flow and encouraging thrombus formation. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>
