Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for the three-dimensional reconstruction of the flow conditions in a vascular system (3), in which, in a first phase after the beginning of a contrast-medium injection, X-ray projection pictures are produced from the same direction (A) at a high picture-taking rate in order to observe the inflow of the contrast medium. When the contrast medium fills the vascular system (3), a rotation of the Xray device (1) takes place during which projection pictures are produced at a lower picture taking rate and/or at a lower radiation dose, from which pictures the three-dimensional structure of the vascular tree can be reconstructed. Optionally, at the end of the rotation, projection pictures may again be taken from a fixed direction that observe the drainage of the contrast medium from the vascular system (3).

Abstract: A method of mixing customized cosmetic products at a point of sale is disclosed. The method includes a suspension free of colorant to a container, adding one or more suspensions containing one or more colorants on top of the non-colorant containing suspension and adding one or more suspensions containing additional non-colorant ingredients on top of the one or more suspensions including the colorants, closing the container and mixing the suspension using a gyroscopic-type or rotary-type mixing apparatus. The container sidewall and bottom surface are coated with suspensions not containing colorant which prevents colorant materials from adhering to the sidewall and bottom portion of the container thereby providing for a more effective mixing of a customized cosmetic product at the point of purchase.

Abstract: An optical fiber coupling part capable of reducing coupling loss while maintaining a large operating distance, and having a good module assembling property. An optical fiber 4 has numerical aperture NAf, A first GRIN lens 1 has numerical aperture NA1. A second GRIN lens 2 has numerical aperture NA2. The second GRIN lens 2 has a first end fusion-spliced with one end of the optical fiber 4. The first GRIN lens 1 is fusion-spliced at one end with the other end of the second GRIN lens 2. The other end of the first GRIN lens 1 is unattached. The numerical aperture NA1 of the first GRIN lens 1 is larger than numerical aperture NA2 of the second GRIN lens 2. Thereby, the lights emitted from a light-emitting source 3 with a numerical aperture NAs can efficiently enter the optical fiber, and loss of the lights can thereby be reduced. In this case, the formula expressed by NAf ¤ NA2 < NAs ¤ NA1 is desirable. All lights emitted from the light-emitting source with a numerical aperture NAs can enter the GRIN lens, and the loss of the light can thereby be reduced.

Abstract: A system and apparatus for automatically dispensing a paper product mounted on a gravity-assisted holder through a dispenser. The apparatus can be pedestal or wall-mounted and includes an electric motor, a main product roller for automatically rolling a predetermined amount of the paper product from the holder, exit guide rollers for guiding the paper product through a front cover of the dispenser, and a series of interconnected gears that are driven by the electric motor to activate the main product roller and exit guide roller and operate both the main roller and exit roller at the same speed. The dispenser is activated when a proximity sensor detects the presence of an individual's hand. Operating the rollers at the same speed prevents paper or tissue jamming inside the dispenser. An even weight distribution of the paper roll against a primary roller is accomplished by offsetting the weight of the paper roll through guide tracks. When the paper roll is at full size, the center of gravity is on the guide tracks; when the paper roll gets smaller, the center of gravity shifts closer to the roller ensuring that the paper roll is fed constantly thereby increasing motor efficiency.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fixing means which is used to temporarily fix human or animal body parts. The fixing means comprises at least one flexible carrier layer which is coated with a hardenable material, wherein the body part which is to be fixed can be surrounded either fully or partially by the fixing means and the hardenable material can then be hardened, wherein the carrier layer is stiffened. In order to provide for individual fixing of the body part while guaranteeing a partial adjustment of the desired rigidity of the fixing means, the fixing means is provided with at least two carrier layers, with at least one outer layer made of a flexible polymer film and at least one inner layer made of a flexible film in addition to at least one substantially liquid or viscous layer which is arranged between the outer and inner layer and which is made of at least one hardenable adhesive. It is thus possible to obtain the desired degree of rigidity when the adhesive has hardened by exerting manual pressure on the fixing agent which enables the hardenable adhesive to be displaced.

Abstract: A semiconductor sensor, solar cell or emitter or a precursor therefore having a substrate and textured semiconductor layer deposited onto the substrate. The layer can be textured as grown on the substrate or textured by replicating a textured substrate surface. The substrate or first layer is then a template for growing and texturing other semiconductor layers from the device. The textured layers are replicated to the surface from the substrate to enhance light extraction or light absorption. Multiple quantum wells, comprising several barrier and quantum well layers, are deposited as alternating textured layers. The texturing in the region of the quantum well layers greatly enhances internal quantum efficiency if the semiconductor is polar and the quantum wells are grown along the polar direction. This is the case in nitride semiconductors grown along the polar [0001] or [000-1] directions.

Abstract: A dual-stage filtration system and methods for using the same include first and second filtration cartridges particularly suited for hemodiafiltration and/or hemodialysis. As fluid enters the first filtration cartridge, the hydrogen ion concentration (pH) is reduced by exposing it to an acidic solution such as citric acid across a filter membrane. This stage allows for improved removal of certain toxins in the fluid, such as protein-bound substances that disassociate more readily from proteins at a lower pH. As the filtered fluid enters the second filtration cartridge, the pH of the fluid is restored to normal levels prior to infusion to a patient.
