Abstract: Methods are disclosed for inactivating interfering binding proteins in a immunoassay for a member of a specific binding pair (sbp). The method comprises including in an assay medium containing a sample suspected of containing an sbp member and an interfering binding protein an effective amount of a water soluble compound having two substituted or unsubstituted phenyl groups linked to a common atom. When the sbp member or its sbp partner has two phenyl groups linked to a common atom, the compound has a number of groups other than hydrogen attached to the phenyl groups and the atom that differs by at least two from the number of such groups on the sbp member. When the sbp member or its sbp partner has two phenyl groups linked to a common atom and the binding protein is not an antibody, the compound has only one group other than hydrogen attached to a phenyl group or the common atom. The methods have particular application in avoiding cross-reactivity of non-analyte materials in a sample with immunochemical reagents used in such assay. The methods have application also in disrupting complexes between an analyte to be determined and other materials so that one can accurately determine the amount of an analyte in a sample.

Abstract: Apparatus for the continuous extrusion of metals in which feed is introduced into two (or more) spaced apart circumferential grooves 4 in a rotating wheel 2 (or rotating wheels) to contact an arcuate shoe portion 8 and abutments extending into the grooves. The feed is constrained by the abutments to flow through frusto-conical exit apertures 10 in the shoe portion 8 to a chamber 6 and is extruded as relatively thin-walled, large cross-section, product. The exit apertures 10 have cone angles in the range 5 DEG  - 45 DEG . Mixer plates 14 are profiled to distribute flow evenly from the apertures 10 to around the die opening 30. An extrusion die body 18 for cylindrical extrusions is located and axially centred by set screws 122. Where an even number of grooves 4 are utilised, an extrusion mandrel 12 may be secured to the shoe portion 8 by a bolt 22 positioned centrally of the grooves. Lubricant or oxidation inhibiting fluids may be injected internally of the extruded product through a passage 36, 38 extending through the shoe portion 8 and the bolt 22. In another embodiment, the chamber 6 is also of divergent frusto-conical form having a cone angle corresponding to that of the apertures 10, thereby enabling the extrusion of even larger cross-section products. The frusto-conical form may be of elliptical cross-section to achieve a requisite divergence or to accord with the configuration of the die orifice. By providing spaced apart grooves 4 and apertures 10 diverging frusto-conically it is possible to extrude products of relatively large cross-section since the volume feed rate is enhanced and the distance travelled by the material from the grooves 4 to the die orifice 30 is reduced, thereby reducing friction losses and the likelihood of discontinuities in the extrudate arising.

Abstract: This invention relates to a telecommunication system including a conference information system including a number of participants each equipped with a separate node (2, 4, 8), which conference nodes may be interconnected via a switching network (1) such as a public switched telephone network, and where each participant node (2, 4 , 8) is including means for receiving a sum conference information signal from the other participating nodes, means for adding the signal generated in each conference node to the sum signal, and means for controlling the conferencing functions. According to this invention all of the nodes (2, 4, 8) in the conference connection are interconnected in a complete conference ring (11) by means of one single connection (12) in which the information signals are transmitted from node to node in one single direction (arrow 12). Some of the advantages of this system are   a conference may be established even if the possibly centrally arranged exchange is not provided with a conference facility. The conference facility is introduced by equipment distributed in each node terminal. The line requirement is reduced to the half, but still the same traffic capacity may be handled by the system. all the nodes now get identical status in the ring, and therefore all of the nodes may be designed as quite identical circuits.   <IMAGE>

Date Oct. 14, 1993.An axial locking device has locking balls which engage in a groove in a male member to lock the male member to a female member. To effect locking, a first axial movement of the male member causes it to abut an end surface on a slider and pushes slider teeth against rotor teeth, and a return movement of the male member allows the slider and rotor to return, pushed by a spring. In this way, the rotor is caused to rotate and its internal cam surface moves the locking balls. To reduce the number of parts and simplify manufacture, retaining teeth are formed by U-shaped clips on the housing of the female member, and act to prevent rotation of the slider during its axial movement, and to prevent rotation of the rotor until the rotor teeth have cleared the retaining teeth, causing a click or snap action. During the return movement of the slider and rotor, the rotor teeth cam over the ends of the retaining teeth and continue to rotate the rotor in the same direction.

Abstract: Dispersions of electrically conductive particles useful for preparing electrically conductive, essentially ionically isolative composite layers having electrically conductive particles dispersed in a polymer matrix. Composite layers can be used in laminates for electrochromic displays where an ionically conductive layer is in contact with electrochromic material. Such displays comprise means for applying an electrical potential across the interface of the ionically conductive layer and the electrochromic material to generate an electrochromic effect at the interface. Electrochromic materials can be provided in the laminates as layers between the ionically conductive layer and the composite layer of electrically conductive particles dispersed in a polymer matrix. Alternatively, the electrochromic material can be incorporated in the conductive particles in the polymer matrix, e.g. as titanium dioxide coated with antimony tin oxide coated with polyaniline dispersed in an light transmitting polymer matrix. The materials of this invention allow for the high speed fabrication of flexible displays, e.g. by printing methods.
