Abstract: The invention provides methods for diagnosing the efficacy of a patient to xenotypic antibody therapy which include (1) measuring the level of an antibody produced by a patient that specifically binds to a a xenotypic antibody after administration of the xenotypic antibody to the patient; (2) measuring the level of an anti-idiotype antibody produced by a patient that specifically binds to a a xenotypic antibody after administration of the xenotypic antibody to the patient; (3) measuring the level of an antibody produced by a patient that specifically binds to a target antigen of a xenotypic antibody after administration of a xenotypic antibody to the patient; and (4) measuring the level of a T cell response produced by a patient to a target antigen of the xenotypic antibody after administration of a xenotypic antibody to the patient. In the methods of the invention, an increase in the level of antibody or T cell response produced by the patient after the administration of the xenotypic antibody relative to the level antibody or T cell response produced by the patient prior to the administration of the xenotypic antibody is indicative of a favorable diagnosis of efficacy.

Abstract: Bipolar membrane electrodialysis methods for salt splitting polyvalent metal salts, where the metal cation can form substantially insoluble precipitates in the presence of hydroxyl ions can now be used in recovering acid and base values from a salt streams without precipitates fouling cell operation and causing shutdown. The introduction of an acid to the chamber where metal hydroxides would form inhibits their development or neutralizes formed solids, allowing salt splitting to continue. Salt splitting methods of the invention performed with a three compartment bipolar electrodialysis cell are useful in producing concentrated and purified acid forms, such as 2-keto-L-gluconic acid, H(KLG), a key intermediate in the production of ascorbic acid.

Abstract: Heat transfer in coolant circuits, as in an internal combustion engine for example, can be beneficially enhanced by maintaining the coolant in a nucleate boiling state, but undesirable transitions to a film boiling state are then possible. The disclosed coolant circuit has a selected surface or surfaces (12) having a tendency to experience high heat flux in comparison to adjacent surfaces in the coolant circuit. These surfaces (12) are provided with a surface configuration, such as a matrix (14) of nucleation cavities (16), which has a tendency to inhibit a change in boiling state. The surface configuration can be provided on the parent coolant circuit surface or on a surface of an insert (10) positioned in the coolant circuit. Thus, transitions to film boiling can be effectively avoided at locations in the coolant circuit that are susceptible to such transitions. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A fluid flow control valve comprises a body (11) in which is a valve chamber (14) connecting an inlet to an outlet (15) for a source of fluid, with a flexible diaphragm (18) opening or closing the outlet, in use. An open end of the body is closed by a cover (19), and received in the interior of the cover is a cap-like member (32), between which member (32) and the diaphragm (18) is defined a sub-chamber. The sub-chamber communicates with the source of fluid by way of a bleed hole (18a) in the diaphragm (18) and the outlet from the sub-chamber is a passageway through an outlet tube (32) on a flexible front wall (34) of the member (32), this tube extending through an opening in the cover (19) to contact a sealing pad (31) on an arm (29) of a float pivotally mounted on the cover. The position of the outlet from the sub-chamber is thus movable, due to the flexibility of the front wall (34), and this allows water hammer to be reduced/eliminated.
