Abstract: Known techniques for the filtration of biological liquids, such as centrifugation, are expensive as they require specialised apparatus to carry them out. Described herein is a simple apparatus and method which filters a biological liquid, such as whole blood, and then allows the filtered liquid to be applied to a diagnostic test element. The apparatus comprises a container (2) having contained filters (10, 12) and into which a quantity of biological liquid is added for separation and retention of a quantity of the sample. The container (2) has an exterior surface (14) wettable with the filtered sample to collect the same, and a cover (16) for preventing significant evaporation of the wetted filter surface (14), the cover (16, 18, 20, 22, 24) including a movable transfer element for transferring filtered and collected liquid from the wetted surface (14) and delivering the liquid to a test element by contact. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The luminaire has a concave reflector (1) built up from plane facets (4). The facets are arranged in rows (7) which extend between first parallel planes (8) towards the light emission window (3). The facets are also bounded by second parallel planes (9). The first and the second parallel planes extend parallel to the axis (2) of the reflector, but transversely to one another. Means (30) are present for holding an electric light source (31') in a plane transverse to the plane of symmetry (6) of the reflector. The luminaire is suitable for concentrating the light generated by the light source into a comparatively wide beam and for illuminating a field from a small distance with a high degree of homogeneity. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for determining the position of a mobile radio telephone in a satellite communication system is disclosed. First, a mobile radio telephone scans a plurality of paging channels and measures the signal strength of the paging channels. The mobile radio telephone then selects the paging channel with the strongest signal strength and decodes the information broadcasted on the selected channel. The information contained in the paging channel can include frequencies or timeslots of paging channels in surrounding spot beams. The mobile station then measures the signal strength of paging channels in surrounding spot beams and quantizes the measurements to determine a coarse position of the mobile radio telephone.

Abstract: An improved ultrasonic vortex fluid flowmeter (10) includes a housing (12) having a slip-on yoke (16) which removably mates with a bluff body conduit connector (18) permanently installed in a fluid conduit to be monitored. An ultrasonic transmitter (40) and receiver (42) are respectively positioned within the legs of the yoke so as pass an ultrasonic wave through vortices (43) shed by the fluid as it flows by the bluff body (28). The slip-on yoke eliminates both the need to shut down fluid flow during meter servicing, and the potential for external contaminants entering the fluid. The flowmeter further utilizes a simple phase detector formed from an Exclusive Or gate (44) in combination with an optimal phase range detecting means (108). The optimal phase range detecting means triggers a 90 degree phase shift whenever the phase difference between the transmitted wave and the received wave approaches 0 or 180 degrees. <IMAGE>
