Abstract: The method involves reading an identity characteristic stored in a module or chip card during manufacture when the module is used in a terminal. A monitoring characteristic stored in the terminal is the same for all terminals and is changed from time to time. A variable monitoring characteristic stored in the module is read by the terminal and compared with the one stored in the terminal. If they differ a central computer is informed and the module characteristic is overwritten with the one in the terminal. The warnings are recorded against identity characteristics and the use of a module blocked when the number of associated warnings exceeds a threshold.

Abstract: A flat-top, hermetically sealed, paperboard-based container and apparatus and method of making it are set forth. The paperboard-based container includes a rectangular sleeve having upper end sections joined at fold lines with side walls. The upper end sections are divided into inner and outer opposed pairs which are folded toward one another in an overlapping manner to form a generally flat end for the container. Each of the inner and outer opposed sections includes a cutout. When the upper end sections are folded in and overlapping manner, the cutouts define an aperture having edges that include exposed paperboard substrate. Each of the inner pair of opposed end sections are divided along fold lines into a middle region and laterally opposed side regions. The laterally opposed side regions are folded onto the middle region and are sandwiched between the middle region and the outer pair of opposed sections when folded to form the container top. One of the outer pair of opposed upper end sections is longer than the other so that the longer outer end section overlaps exterior to the shorter of the outer pair of opposed upper end sections. An opening fitment is disposed through the aperture and includes a flange at the interior of the container. The flange covers the exposed edges of the aperture. The fitment is preferably a resealable cover, such as a resealable screw-type spout and cap or the like.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a method of removing hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, phosphine and arsine from acetylene in a fixed-bed process, wherein the acetylene to be purified is passed through a number of activated carbon beds in a single- or multistage process, the activated carbon in one bed having been modified with potassium iodide, in another modified with zinc sulfate and in another activated with ammonia. The installation should preferably be designed so that the acetylene to be purified flows first through the activated carbon modified with potassium iodide, then through the activated carbon modified with zinc sulfate and then through the activated carbon activated in an ammonia atmosphere. The claimed method has substantial advantages over the known methods. It is relatively simple in design and does not pose added demands on the apparatus or on the measurement and control equipment.

Abstract: Fabrication methods are provided for microchips that control both the rate and time of release of multiple chemical substances and allow for the release of a wide variety of molecules in either a continuous or pulsatile manner. In all of the preferred embodiments, a material that is impermeable to the drugs or other molecules to be delivered and the surrounding fluids is used as the substrate. Reservoirs are etched into the substrate using either chemical (wet) etching or plasma (dry) etching techniques well known in the field of microfabrication. Hundreds to thousands of reservoirs can be fabricated on a single microchip using these techniques. A release system, which includes the molecules to be delivered, is inserted into the reservoirs by injection, inkjet printing, or spin coating methods. Exemplary release systems include polymers and polymeric matrices, non-polymeric matrices, and other excipients or diluents. The physical properties of the release system control the rate of release of the molecules. The reservoirs can contain multiple drugs or other molecules in variable dosages. The filled reservoirs can be capped with materials that passively disintegrate, materials that allow the molecules to diffuse passively out of the reservoir over time, or materials that disintegrate upon application of an electric potential. Release from an active device can be controlled by a preprogrammed microprocessor, remote control, or by biosensors.

Abstract: A disposable device and method for axenically culturing and harvesting cells and/or tissue in consecutive cycles. The device consist of a sterilizable transparent and/or translucent disposable container which may be at least partially filled with a suitable sterile biological cell and/or tissue culture medium and/or axenic inoculant and/or sterile air and/or required other sterile additives. The container has means for removing excess air and/or waste gases therefrom, and means for introducing the inoculant and/or culture medium and/or additives therein. The device also has at least one air inlet, and preferably a plurality thereof, for introducing sterile air into the device. The device is characterised by having a reusable harvesting means comprising suitable flow control means for enabling harvesting of at least a portion of the medium containing cells and/or tissue when desired, thereby enabling the device to be used continuously for at least one subsequent consecutive culturing/harvesting cycle. The portion of medium containing cells and/or tissue remaining from a previously harvested cycle may serve as inoculant for a next culture and harvest cycle, culture medium and/or additives being provided. The device may thus be used continuously in consecutive cycles, and may be disposed of when it becomes contaminated. In a second aspect of the invention, a battery of these devices, suitably interconnected, enables the scale of production of cells/tissues to be adjusted when required.
