Abstract: The wire coating material (8) is in the pipe (1) along the pipe axis. A current pulse passes through the wire, and current intensity rapidly evaporates the wire and the vapor hits the inner surface (5) of the pipe to form a coating. Electrode units (3, 4) hold electrodes (6, 7) and a wire to be evaporated. An insulating block (9) supports at least one electrode (6) on the pipe inner surface.

Abstract: A method for analyzing blood enables one to isolate, detect, enumerate and confirm under magnification the presence or absence of target cancer cells and/or hematologic progenitor cells which are known to circulate in blood. The analysis is performed in a sample of centrifuged anticoagulated whole blood. The analysis involves both morphometric and epitopic examination of the blood sample while the blood sample is disposed in a centrifuged blood sampling tube. The epitopic analysis of the presence or absence of cancer cells relies on the detection of epitopes which are known to present only on cancer cells; and the epitopic analysis of the presence or absence of hematologic progenitor cells relies on the detection of epitopes which are known to present only on hematologic progenitor cells. The targeted epitopes on the target cell types are epitopes which are also known to be absent on normal circulating blood cells; and the target cancer cell epitopes are epitopes which are known to be absent on target hematologic progenitor cells. Fluorophors with distinct emissions are coupled with antibodies which are directed against the targeted epitopes. The morphometric analysis is performed by staining the cells in the blood sample with an intracellular stain such as acridine orange which highlights the intracellular cell structure. Both the morphometric and epitopic analyses are preferably performed at or near the platelet layer of the expanded buffy coat in the centrifuged blood sample. The morphometric analysis and/or the epitopic analysis may be performed under magnification both visually and/or photometrically. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Production of a nanocrystalline soft magnetic iron-silicon-boron alloy magnetic core involves crystallization heat treatment of the amorphous alloy at 150-400 degrees C in a transverse magnetic field of rectangular waveform. Production of a magnetic core of nanocrystalline soft magnetic alloy, containing more than 60 at.% Fe, 10-20 at.% Si, 0.1-2 at.% Cu, 5-20 at.% B and 0.1-10 at.% of one or more of Ti, Nb, Zr, Hf, V, Ta, Cr, Mo, W and Mn, the sum of Si + B being less than 30 at.%, involves crystallization heat treatment of the amorphous alloy to obtain a core having a maximum impedance magnetic permeability ( mu z) with a value of 350000 at 50 Hz and 25 degrees C and with a variation of less than 25% over the -25 to +100 degrees C range. The novelty is that the core is heat treated at 150-400 degrees C in a transverse magnetic field of rectangular waveform.

Abstract: A prosody modification system and methodology calculates synchronization marks in an original, quasi-periodic signal to a finer precision than the sampling rate of the original signal. Synthetic synchronization marks are generated according to the desired prosody modification also to a finer precision than the sampling rate of the original signal. Waveforms are extracted from the original signal and are fine-shifted to the exact location on the synthetic time axis by a resampling technique. The fine-shifted waveforms are windowed by an asymmetric filtering window, overlapped, and summed together to produce a synthetic signal.

Abstract: A tampon (8), in particular for use by women suffering from urinary incontinence, is made of a skin-compatible, elastic material, which in the wet state can be compressed against a restoring force, in particular a plastic foam such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Such tampons exercise a pressure on the urethra (11) when they are inserted into the vagina and prevent involuntary urine losses. A non-insulated, electroconductive electrode (9) is enclosed in the material of the tampon (8) and connected to an insulated connection cable (3) which extends out of the material of the tampon (8). This enables the tampon (8) to be used not only to effectively prevent incontinence but also in therapeutic processes such as electrostimulation therapy or iontophoresis, and in measurement processes such as electromyography.

Abstract: Conductive and weldable anti-corrosive compositions based on (blocked) polyurethane resins, epoxy resins, together with curing agents containing nitrogen and conductive extenders are suitable for coating metal surfaces, in particular sheet steel in the coil coating process. These compositions are distinguished by a low stoving temperature, a distinct reduction in white rust on galvanized sheet steel in the salt spray test and by an improvement in the adhesion of the organic coating on the metallic substrate. These coatings furthermore also achieve adequate corrosion protection with a thin chromium coating, preferably also in Cr-free pretreatment processes. Sheet metal coated in this manner may be spot welded using any conventional processes.
