Abstract: To determine an analyte by a heterogeneous immunological assay using the first of a pair of binding partners, which is immobilised on a solid phase, in which a sample solution containing the analyte is incubated in the presence of the solid phase either
 (1) with a first conjugate consisting of (a) the second of the abovementioned pair of binding partners and (b) a first substance which is capable of specific immunological binding with the analyte, or
 (2) with a first conjugate consisting of (a) the second of the abovementioned pair of binding partners and (b) a first substance which is capable of specific immunological binding with the analyte, and with a second labelled substance which is capable of specific immunological binding with the analyte,
 then the phases are separated, in case (1) the liquid phase is replaced by another solution which contains a second labelled substance which is capable of specific binding with the analyte, and incubation and then separation are again carried out, and in both cases the label on the solid phase or in the last liquid phase removed is measured as a measure of the amount of analyte, the incubation is preceded by also adding to the liquid phase a second conjugate of (a) a macromolecule which is not capable of binding with the analyte, and (b) the second of the abovementioned pair of binding partners in excess compared with the first conjugate.

Abstract: A servo loop controls an actuator (24) and read head (10), the loop being responsive to training signals (60) to cause the actuator (24) to move the read head (10). An error signal is produced that indicates a less than optimum positioning action by the actuator (24). A compensating filter (46) alters the servo loop's response to a training signal (60) to cause the actuator (24) to produce a more optimum positioning action, the filter (46) exhibiting an initial value filter characteristic. A processor (40) is responsive to a first training signal (60) to alter the filter's initial characteristic value in a first direction to cause the filter (46) to act upon the first training signal in accordance with the altered characteristic value, and is further responsive to a second training signal to alter the filter's initial characteristic in a second direction to cause said filter (46) to act upon the second training signal in accordance with the altered characteristic value. The processor (40) adjusts the filter characteristic in a direction dependent upon which training signal causes a lower value error signal.

Abstract: A process for removing acetone from an acetone/methyl acetate/methyl iodide mixture comprises extractive distillation with water being introduced to the distillation zone above the point of introduction of the mixture and acetic acid being introduced at or above the point of introduction of the mixture. In a preferred embodiment the mixture is subjected to an initial extraction with an aqueous extractant to remove most of the methyl iodide. 
     The process is particularly applicable to removing acetone by-product in carbonylation processes for the production of acetic anhydride.

Abstract: A nickel plug (31) filling an aperture in an insulating layer (30), such as polyimide, separating two metallization levels of copper wires (28, 25 and 38, 35) is formed by an electroless process in a plating bath (solution) containing ions of hypophosphite and of nickel. In preparation for this electroless process, the copper wires (28, 25) are first plated with a nickel layer (29) by a pseudo-electroless process--that is, a process in which the copper wires (28, 25) are located in contact with an underlying extended chromium layer (14) that is placed in electrical contact (including intimate physical contact) with an auxiliary metallic layer (41) that contains nickel, while both the copper wires (28, 25), the chromium layer (14), and at least a portion of the external metallic layer (41) are immersed in a plating solution likewise containing ions of hypophosphite and of nickel.

Abstract: Disclosed is a CD player (100) that ensures a setup operation and reproduction of information even when a partially recorded CD-R (1) is set therein. The CD player sequentially performs the setup operation, starting from the first setup position located near the innermost periphery of the CD, predetermined for the setup operation, until the setup operation is complete at any of n-th (n = 2, 3, ...) setup positions lying outwardly of the first setup position. If the setup operation is not completed even at an n-th setup position, the CD player performs the setup operation again at at least one setup position lying inwardly of the n-th setup position. Also disclosed is a CD player that can discriminate a not finalised partially recorded, additionally recordable CD-R, and can execute the reproduction control for the PRD. This CD player discriminates a set disk as a not finalised one when a mirror-finished portion is detected during control to detect the lead-in area or when the lead-in area cannot be detected and the TOC information cannot be read.

Abstract: An oil-in-water emulsion containing 0.5% to 30% metallic oxides having a particle size of less than 0.2 micron, less than 10% total emulsifier, 5% to 30% of an oil phase and at least 60% of an aqueous phase is provided. 
     The invention also makes available a method of preparing such emulsions in which the emulsion is formed by use of a dispersion in water of the metallic oxide particles. 
     By comparison with previously known emulsions of this type relatively small quantities of emulsifiers are used and it is possible to use an emulsion system with a low HLB value (e.g. less than 6). Preferably no hydrophilic emulsifiers are used. 
     The emulsions are suitable for preparing UV-absorbing compositions such as sunscreens, moisturisers and after-sun lotions. The ability to use no, or little, hydrophilic emulsifiers is advantageous since, in, general, these emulsifiers are not biodegradable whereas hydrophobic emulsifiers generally are biodegradable.

Abstract: A clinch type staple (22) has a U-shaped configuration with a pair of legs (26, 28) extending generally perpendicularly from a base portion (24) of the staple with the outside surface of the distal ends (30, 32) of the legs being bevelled. The legs of the staple lie in spaced apart planes that are parallel to one another, but are angularly offset from one another in order to insure that the legs (26, 28) will not contact or interfere with each other as they are clinched into a workpiece (34, 36). A plurality of such clinch staples (22) can be manufactured into an assembly (20) of clinch staples. The method of making such an assembly of clinch staples includes advancing a plurality of wires (42) in parallel side-by-side relation in a flat, planar array and adhering them to one another. A blank (54), severed from an end of the formed array, includes a plurality of side-by-side wire segments of equal length extending parallel to one another in a first direction. The severing of the wires is accomplished along a cutting line that is inclined by a bias angle (56) from a perpendicular to the first direction. The blank (54) is bent along two bending lines to form a channel-shaped stick of clinch staples with the legs (26, 28) extending perpendicularly from a base or bight portion (24) of the staples (22). The two bending lines are parallel to the cutting line so that the legs of the formed staples will be offset angularly from each other.
