Abstract: Process for the production of concentrated sulphuric acid and oleum from feed gases with up to 70 % SO2 + SO3 (SO x) and a content of H2O corresponding to H2O/SO3 molar ratios up to 1.6, particularly in the range of 0.5 to 1.6 upstream an intermediate sulphuric acid condenser comprising an air recycling loop with water addition. The process of the invention minimizes power consumption of the sulphuric acid plant by reducing the consumption of cooling water and obtaining maximum possible recovery of the heat liberated in the process for production of high pressure steam for power production. Up to 99.95% of the SO x in the feed gas can be recovered as typically 98.5-99.5 wt% concentrated sulphuric acid and/or oleum with up to 25 wt% SO3.

Abstract: An apparatus for real-time control of glucose in a human or animal is provided. A sensor provides a time series of measurements of glucose level that indicate an inferred level of the glucose. A processor calculates a first estimate of the inferred glucose level from the measured glucose level using a first glucoregulatory system model, calculates a second estimate using a second glucoregulatory system model, and predicts a combined estimate. The processor is a state estimator defining a state vector that has variables with an associated uncertainty. The state vector includes various states, based on glucose amounts in the accessible, non-accessible, and interstitial compartments excluding the contribution from meals, the unexplained glucose influx, and glucose availability. A dispenser delivers a specified amount of medication to a user in response to a command from the processor based on the predicted combined estimate of the inferred glucose level.

Abstract: Le présent inventeur a conçu, entre autres choses, un système d'extraction d'informations qui détermine si une interrogation est ambiguë ou non et, sur la base de cette détermination, s'il continue ou abandonne un procédé de recherche. Une évaluation d'interrogation extrait des paires de mots d'une interrogation d'entrée et utilise des caractéristiques des paires de mots extraites, par exemple le nombre de paires de mots et leurs fréquences dans un ensemble de documents, pour déterminer si l'interrogation est ambiguë ou non. Une autre évaluation mesure une convergence de sujets, à l'aide de notes de jurisprudence associées à l'interrogation qui sont associées à des sujets dans une taxinomie du droit. Et encore une autre vérifie une convergence de sujets dans l'optique des documents de jurisprudence complets et de documents légaux secondaires, tels que des articles d'examen de loi, notamment le nombre minimal de documents de jurisprudence et légaux secondaires qui sont nécessaires pour couvrir un ensemble de sujets les mieux classés identifiés à l'aide de l'interrogation.

Abstract: A biotechnological process for enhancing oil recovery of 14 to 25 °API oil contained in carbonate or sandstone rock systems with low permeability (7 to 100 mD) utilizes indigenous extremophile microorganisms from the oil well and its metabolites (gases, acids, solvents and surfactants), to improve oil mobility. Under anaerobic conditions, such microorganisms are able to grow in temperatures from 60 to 95°C, at pressures from 7 to 154.6 kg/cm2 and NaCI content from 5,000 to 45,000 ppm. Injection of indigenous microorganisms and a second culture containing selected microorganisms for metabolites production into the well improves oil recovery after closed the system periods from 5 to 10 days. The biotechnical process includes biostimulation (indigenous microorganisms) and bioaugmentation (second culture) to increase metabolite production.

Title: Non-polar photosensitizer formulations for photodynamic therapy
Inventor: ALBRECHT VOLKER
IPC: A61K31/409
Filed: 2004-06-23
Granted: 2013-05-07
Abstract: A pharmaceutical liposomal formulation for photodynamic therapy comprising a non-polar porphyrin photosensitizer and one or more phospholipids, which are stable in storage without requiring freeze-drying is described. The liposomal formulation provides therapeutically effective amounts of the photosensitizer for intravenous administration. The phospholipids may be modified by pegylation, i.e. they contain poly ethylene glycol as an integral part of the phospholipids. The formed liposomes contain the non-polar photosensitizer within the membrane and are useful for the combined targeting of a nonpolar photosensitizer and a second polar substance. When a formulation includes the presence of monosaccharides or polyalcohols, it can be efficiently freeze-dried preserving the size of the liposomal vehicles and the content of a therapeutically effective amount of the photosensitizing agent The invention also relates to the liposome composition formed upon reconstitution with an aqueous vehicle. The freeze-dried formulation upon reconstitution with a suitable aqueous vehicle forms liposomes that are also useful for intravenous administration

Abstract: Reference features are updated based on a previous scan during each mass spectrometry scan of a sample. Reference features with reference feature confidence values are generated from a plurality of initial scans. For each subsequent scan of a sample, sample features and sample feature confidence values are calculated. The reference features and sample features are aligned to determine common features. Constants are determined for an equation of mass of the mass spectrometer using confidence weighted regression of the common features. The constants and the equation of mass are used to calculate new mass values for the sample features. The reference features are updated using the sample features and the reference feature confidence values are recalculated in order to maintain the accuracy of reference features for calibration.
