Abstract: The invention concerns a device for cleaning flat objects, in particular sterile areas in hospitals, laboratories and doctors' practices, the cleaning device comprising a hollow body which is provided with at least one flat cleaning surface and at least one outlet and filling opening, is filled with a cleaning agent or disinfectant and on which an absorbent cleaning material is detachably secured. According to the invention, in order to ensure that dirt and germs are reliably removed from the flat objects to be cleaned and germs are prevented from spreading to sterile regions in hospitals, laboratories and doctors' practices, the absorbent cleaning material consists of a cleaning pad (3) which can be separated in one piece from the hollow body. In advantageous developments of the invention, the cleaning pad consists of a stable resistant woven cloth made of natural or synthetic fibers and comprises surfaces made of rough scouring cloth or a soft wiping cloth.

Abstract: Biodegradable polymer networks are provided which are useful in a variety of dental and orthopedic applications. The biodegradable polymer networks can be formed in one embodiment by polymerizing anhydride prepolymers including cross-linkable groups, such as unsaturated moieties. The anhydride prepolymers can be cross-linked, for example in a photopolymerization reaction by irradiation of the prepolymer with light in the presence of a free radical initiator. Suitable anhydride prepolymers include dianhydrides of a dicarboxylic acid and a carboxylic acid molecule comprising a cross-linkable group. For example, methacrylic acid dianhydrides of monomers or oligomers of a diacid such as sebacic acid or 1,3-bis(p-carboxyphenoxy)-hexane can be used. The anhydride prepolymers can be applied in vivo to a site where an orthopedic implant is needed, and then may be cross-linked, for example, by irradiation with UV light, to form a biodegradable implant such as a rod, pin or plate. The implants advantageously provide mechanical support and also are capable of slow surface degradation to permit bone ingrowth.

Title: Appareil de conversion de couple rotatif en force axiale
Inventor: VITALE NICHOLAS G
IPC: A61M60/446
Filed: 1997-04-29
Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un appareil de conversion de couple rotatif en force axiale, qui utilise un élément rotatif (30), un élément à mouvement de translation (32), et un couplage magnétique entre eux. Ce couplage magnétique convertit un couple de rotation s'appliquant sur l'élément rotatif (30) en une force axiale s'appliquant sur l'élément à mouvement de translation (32), et il comporte un premier aimant permanent (31) faisant partie de l'élément rotatif (30) et un second élément permanent (33) faisant partie de l'élément à mouvement de translation (32). A titre d'exemple, le premier aimant permanent (31) et le second aimant permanent (33) peuvent comprendre chacun des sections magnétiques hélicoïdales entrelacées, de polarité alternée. Cet appareil de conversion d'énergie trouve une application importante comme actionneur pour dispositif d'assistance ventriculaire (VAD) ou comme coeur artificiel total (TAH). En faisant osciller le moteur d'entraînement (100) commandant l'élément rotatif (30), on obtient un couple de rotation oscillant qui est converti par le couplage magnétique en un mouvement axial de va-et-vient s'appliquant sur l'élément à mouvement de translation (32). Ce mouvement axial de va-et-vient peut être utilisé dans un coeur artificiel total (TAH) du type clinique de Cleveland, afin d'actionner en alternance un premier diaphragme couplé au premier ventricule et un second diaphragme couplé au second ventricule, en vue d'un pompage alterné du sang depuis les ventricules.

Abstract: When transmitting encoded video data and audio data,
a transmitter 201 also transmits a decoding method 107
generated by decoding-method generation means 203. In
the case of a receiver 202, decoding control means 111
controls decoding means 208 in accordance with a received
decoding method 113 and thereby, decodes video data and
audio data 115. Thus, it is unnecessary for the receiver
202 to previously prepare all of a plurality of decoding
methods and the transmitter 201 does not need to encode
video data or audio data in accordance with the decoding
method owned by the receiver 202.

Patent EP-0889018-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KUSTOV LEONID MODESTOVICH
IPC: C07C37/60
Filed: 1998-06-30
Abstract: A method and a catalyst are described for selective oxidation of
aromatic compounds (e.g., benzene and its derivatives) into hydroxylated
aromatic compounds (e.g., corresponding phenols). For example, benzene can
be converted into phenol with a yield of at least 30-40%, and a selectivity on the
basis of benzene of at least 95-97%. The selectivity for this reaction based on
N 2 O is at least 90-95%. Therefore, no substantial N 2 O decomposition or
consumption for complete benzene oxidation to CO+CO 2  or other side
products occurs. Similar results are obtained with benzene derivatives (e.g.,
fluorobenzene, difluorobenzene, phenol), although the selectivity is somewhat
lower in the case of derivatives (e.g., about 80-85% in the case of
fluorosubstituted benzenes). A preferred catalyst for this process is a
composition containing a high-silica pentasil-type zeolite (e.g, an HZSM-5 type
zeolite) which contains no purposefully introduced additives such as transition
or noble metals. The catalytic effect is achieved by performing a specific zeolite
modification with strong Lewis acid-base centers of a specific nature. This
modification can be achieved by a pretreatment comprising two steps: a first
conventional calcination step at above 350°C, and a second high-temperature
calcination step at up to 1100°C.
