Abstract: The medium mixture (4) is delivered from a stationary machine component (1) via a rotary joint (3) into the rotary one (11), and is guided in the latter to a point at a distance from the joint. The constituents of the medium are passed separately through the joint, the mixture being only formed in the desired proportions only when close to the point of use. A first constituent can be delivered centrally and a second off-centre through the joint, the first one flowing through an opening of less than 5mm diameter. The first and central opening can have slide surfaces of 10mm maximum diameter, being formed by a central hollow spigot forming a sealed joint inside a bore in a stationary component of the rotary joint.

Abstract: An apparatus for the stack formation is described, by means of which a practically continuous individual stack formation is possible from a stream of slices produced by means of a cutting apparatus. For this purpose a partial stack is formed by means of a stack receiver, and is transferred for the further stack formation to a portioning band, so that, during the continuation of the stack formation on the portioning band, a return guidance of the stack receiver can take place into a position from which it can be shot anew into the stream of slices for the formation of a next partial stack.

Abstract: A relay is provided with fixed contact mounts anchored in a base, as well as contact springs arranged between the fixed contact mounts. The springs are actuated at their free ends. The contact springs each have spring mounts that include terminal segments anchored in the base, respectively parallel to the fixed contact mounts, but outside the space enclosed by them. These terminal segments are connected with the appertaining contact springs via U-shaped connection segments; the connection segments are guided in corresponding guide channels of the base in an insulated fashion. In this way, several sets of switchover contacts can be arranged in simple and space-saving fashion in a relay base, given a predetermined terminal configuration.

Abstract: An antimicrobial film forming surgical site preparation composition includes a film forming material and an antimicrobial agent soluble in a fugitive solvent. The composition when applied to the skin surface forms a substantially water insoluble, substantially tack-free flexible film adherent to the skin surface. The film is capable of releasably retaining the antimicrobial agent to substantially inhibit microbial growth on the skin surface. The film releases sufficient antimicrobial agent to substantially eliminate the microorganisms normally present on the skin surface to prepare the surface for the procedure and continues to release the antimicrobial agent during the procedure and subsequent wound healing. The composition can be easily washed from fabric and does not stain the fabric even where the fabric is treated with chlorine bleach. In addition, a smooth continuous film is formed without the use of a separate plasticizer.

Abstract: The invention is a method of administering therapeutic iodine for treating a disorder in a mammal. The invention comprises a step of feeding said mammal an effective amount of an oxidant for an iodine species and an iodine reductant which will cause oxidation-reduction reactions upon contact with the gastric juices present in the stomach of the mammal. This is done such that molecular iodine is generated in vivo at a ratio of molecular iodine to total iodine of above at least about 0.65. The invention also discloses a non-aqueous pharmaceutically acceptable carrier with said oxidant and reductant having the ability to cause oxidation-reduction reactions upon contact with the gastric juices present in the stomach of said mammal and in an amount sufficient to generate molecular iodine, in vivo, at a ratio of molecular iodine to total iodine of above at least about 0.65.
