Title: Sample support
Inventor: OSTERLOH DIRK KLAUS
IPC: B01L3/00
Filed: 1999-03-11
Granted: 2005-03-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a sample support comprising at least one sample chamber for receiving a sample fluid, and a distribution channel for sample fluid which is connected with the at least one sample chamber. At least one distribution channel extends from each sample chamber. The sample support further comprises at least one reaction chamber into which a supply channel branching off the at least one distribution channel discharges, as well as a ventilation opening for each reaction chamber. The dimensions of each distribution channel and each supply channel are such that the fluid is transported through the distribution and supply channels by way of capillary forces. In each reaction chamber a device for generating a capillary force is positioned in the area of discharge of the supply channel to ensure that the sample fluid flows from the supply channel into the reaction chamber.

Abstract: L'invention concerne de nouvelles lignées de cellules d'encapsidation qui produisent des rétrovirus recombinants exempts de virus auxiliaires détectables, ainsi que des procédés pour produire des lignées cellulaires et pour fabriquer des rétrovirus recombinants à partir de ces lignées cellulaires. Les rétrovirus fabriqués par les lignées cellulaires comprennent des lentivirus, tels que le VIH, capables de transférer un ADN hétérologue à un large spectre de cellules ne se divisant pas. Les cellules d'encapsidation contiennent au moins trois vecteurs qui codent ensemble pour les protéines rétrovirales gag, pol et env, les gènes gag et pol étant partiellement séparés en deux ou plusieurs vecteurs différents. Cet effet est obtenu par la fusion de Vpr ou Vpx avec les protéines pol séparées de celles gag; de cette manière, les protéines sont dirigées sur des virions d'assemblage. Parmi les avantages des cellules d'encapsidation on peut citer une plus grande sécurité lors de l'utilisation dans la thérapie génique des humains car on élimine pratiquement toute possibilité de recombinaison moléculaire qui mènerait à la production d'un virus auxiliaire responsable de la réplication.

Abstract: Fuel fired power vented and natural draft type water heaters are provided with flammable vapor sensors operative to detect flammable vapors exteriorly adjacent the water heater and responsively preclude fuel flow to the burner portion of the water heater. In each water heater a flow tube is extended between the flammable vapor sensor and the draft structure of the water heater and forms a flow path isolated from the combustion chamber of the water heater. in the event that flammable vapors are present exteriorly adjacent the water heater, the forced or natural draft of the water heater creates a biased flow of flammable vapors which is sequentially drawn across the vapor sensor and through the isolated flow path to the draft structure of the water heater.

IPC: G02B5/18
Filed: 2002-04-02
Granted: 2008-10-07
Abstract: An optical signal, which is to become the subject of dispersion compensation, is split by optical combining/splitting unit 2, and each frequency component of the optical signal that is split is reflected by each reflective surface of reflective mirror 40 of reflective means 4 to apply a predetermined phase shift to the respective frequency components. Each reflected frequency component is then combined using optical combining/splitting unit 2, to give dispersion compensated optical signal. Furthermore, in regards to reflective means 4, which is used to apply phase shift to each frequency component of an optical signal, reflective mirror 40 is made a variable movable mirror by reflection position at each reflective surface, which reflects the frequency components, deforming the entire reflective surface. This allows dispersion that is created in an optical signal to be compensated with favorable controllability and high accuracy. As a result, it becomes possible to provide a variable dispersion compensator that presents high precision and controllability of dispersion compensation, and has a miniaturized optical circuit, and an optical transmission system comprising such variable dispersion compensator.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne dispositif de fermeture (121) comprenant des bandes de fixation autoverrouillables (130, 131) et un coulisseau (132) qui est monté coulissant sur les bandes de fixation et dont il facilite la fermeture et l'ouverture. La surface extérieure du coulisseau est conçue de manière à modifier la manière dont ledit coulisseau est saisi par l'utilisateur. Grâce à des surfaces en saillie (160, 162) sur ses flancs (142, 144), le coulisseau peut être saisi à proximité de sa partie avant ou arrière. L'utilisateur a ainsi l'impression que le coulisseau glisse plus facilement sur les bandes de fixation. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, la présence d'une surface de prise (550) près de la partie supérieure du coulisseau (532) facilite le déplacement de ce dernier et réduit les risques de déchirure qui peuvent se produire lorsqu'une pression excessive est appliquée sur la partie inférieure du coulisseau pendant son déplacement.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une pièce manuelle chirurgicale présentant deux tubes ou canaux coaxiaux qui sont montés à l'intérieur d'un corps. Le premier tube est utilisé pour l'aspiration et est de diamètre plus petit que le second tube, de façon à créer un passage annulaire entre le premier et le second tube. Le passage annulaire communique avec une chambre de pompage qui est formée entre deux électrodes. La chambre de pompage permet l'ébullition d'un petit volume du fluide chirurgical. Lorsque le fluide bout, il se dilate rapidement, ce qui propulse le liquide en aval de la chambre de pompage, hors du passage annulaire. Les électrodes sont isolées les unes des autres.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un clapet de retenue (232) amélioré ou un autre composant interne s'utilisant dans un cathéter d'aspiration (208) et des ensembles collecteur (204). Ce clapet de retenue (232), ou cet autre composant interne, fournissent à l'ensemble un mécanisme améliorée pour le nettoyage de la pointe du cathéter (208), sans aspirer une quantité d'air excessive depuis le circuit respiratoire (214) auquel le cathéter endotrachéal est raccordé. D'une manière plus spécifique, l'invention concerne principalement un système de cathéter endotrachéal d'aspiration fermé, assurant un meilleur nettoyage du cathéter (208) tout en minimisant la quantité d'air aspiré du circuit de ventilation (214) du patient, grâce notamment à au moins une partie saillante (280) sur au moins une des surfaces du clapet de retenue (232) ou d'un autre composant interne. Par l'utilisation d'un clapet de retenue (232), ou d'un autre composant interne, pourvu d'au moins une partie saillante (280), ledit clapet (232) ou autre composant interne sont renfoncés et conçus afin d'empêcher que l'ailette du clapet ne racle du mucus ou toute autre sécrétion du cathéter (208) sur la surface distale de l'ailette, au cours du retrait. En outre, lorsque plusieurs parties saillantes (280) sont formées sur le cathéter, la formation d'un pont (981) entre chacune de ces parties (280) accroît la capacité de ladite partie (280) à améliorer le nettoyage de l'ensemble par raclage du mucus et des sécrétions depuis le cathéter (208) en cours d'extraction, tout en renforçant le clapet de retenue (232) de manière qu'il ne se déforme pas au fur et à mesure que le cathéter (208) se déplace dans l'ensemble.
