Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition for the controlled release of medicinal drugs, which has the property of adhering to biologic tissues is described. The characteristic features of the composition are a plurality of small-size units capable of ensuring a gradual release of the active ingredient they contain the units being coated with a bioadhesive polymer layer. The composition makes it possible to keep the release controlling function separate from the function providing bioadhesion and can be adapted inter alia to oral, ocular, rectal, vaginal, nasal or periodontal administrations. An advantageous process for making the composition is also disclosed.

Abstract: A process for reducing undesired substances in the production of plastic materials, in which about 10-100 ppm of a suitably selected zeolite is added to the reactor in the polymerisation of the plastic material. For removing undesired, odour/taste-producing substances, a substantially hydrophobic aluminium silicate molecular sieve is added, having a pore diameter of at least 5.5  ANGSTROM , an Si/Al molar ratio in the crystal lattice of at least 35, and a sorption capacity for water at 25  DEG C and 4.6 torr of less than 10 wt.-%. For removing catalyst poisons, such as water and carbon monoxide, a substantially hydrophilic zeolite is added, preferably having a pore diameter not exceeding about 15  ANGSTROM . Before being added to the reactor, the zeolite can be activated by heat treatment at about 250-350  DEG C for 2-5 h.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the preparation of a polymeric shaped article containing an electrically conductive polymer, wherein a base shaped article containing a matrix polymer is contacted with an anode in the presence of an electrolyte-containing medium containing monomer units, which on polymerisation to form an electrically conductive polymer, and wherein a voltage is applied between the anode and a second electrode which is in contact with the electrolyte-containing medium. The method according to the invention is characterised in that the applied base shaped article possesses electrically conducting properties and that the contact between the shaped article and the anode is established by moving the article along the anode, at least part of the article being in contact with the anode. It has appeared that, in the method according to the invention, the shaped article does not adhere to the electrode so that the method may be practised continuously. A further advantage of the shaped article failing to adhere to the electrode is that the method according to the invention generates very little waste. Furthermore, it has appeared that the method according to the invention allows a shaped article to be produced with a very short polymerisation time, the electrically conductive polymer in which being homogeneously distributed. The applied base shaped article does not swell during wetting, so that the mechanical properties of the base shaped article do not deteriorate. As a result, if the method is applied, for instance, continuously, a higher rate of production can be applied. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A printed circuit board inspection system acquires images for purposes of inspection from viewing fields defined along the surface of the printed circuit board to be inspected which can be varied in size to accommodate the density and tolerance of components associated with the printed circuit board under inspection. To this end, the cameras of the inspection head associated with the printed circuit board inspection system are provided with zoom lenses, which are capable of controlled operation responsive to the existing microprocessor systems of the printed circuit board inspection system. This allows the magnification of images acquired by the cameras to be varied, as desired, in turn varying the size of the viewing fields defined for inspection purposes. The inspection head is then operated at a rate commensurate with the size of the viewing fields which have been selected. Such operations can be varied automatically, by the printed circuit board inspection system, to effectively inspect printed circuit boards of different type and configuration. The printed circuit board inspection system can also perform successive inspections of a printed circuit board, at different magnifications.
