摘要:
The invention provides orvinol and thevinol compounds useful for the treatment of drug and alcohol abuse, the compounds being particularly useful for the prevention of relapse in recovering addicts.
摘要:
At least one of apparatus (100, 400) and a method for determining one or more electromagnetic properties of a region of interest are described. One or more inductive measurements (410) corresponding to the region of interest and one or more capacitive measurements (420) corresponding to the region of interest are received. An estimate of electrical conductivity is obtained(430) based on at least the received one or more inductive measurements(410). This is used to determine a permittivity measurement (440) together with at least the received one or more capacitive measurements(420).
摘要:
An optical fibre is provided having a fibre cladding around a longitudinally extending optical propagation core. The cladding has a reflection region of a varying refractive index in the longitudinal direction.
摘要:
A reactor for carrying out a heterogeneously catalysed reaction comprises at least first and second reaction zones (5, 6 7) arranged in series and each comprising catalytic material, heat transfer zones (8, 9, 10) located between said serially arranged reaction zones, and a pulse-generating device (14), which is arranged to deliver pulses to liquid in the reactor. The reactor allows three-phase reactions to be carried out efficiently and can reduce the impact of deposited reaction by- products on reaction efficiency.
摘要:
The invention provides vesicles that may be used in diagnosing infection, especially with infection by bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The vesicles can be used in wound dressings.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a crystal. In particular the present invention relates to a crystal of the N-domain of ACE protein. The present invention also relates to methods, processes, domain, specific modulators, pharmaceutical compositions and uses of the N-domain crystal and the structure co-ordinates thereof.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for forming antimicrobial coatings, and to compounds suitable for forming the antimicrobial coatings, and to substrates coated with the antimicrobial coatings. The coatings are formed by vapour phase plasma polymerisation of metal ion complexes each having at least one polymerisable ligand, which includes a polymerisable moiety such as a C-C double bond or a C-C triple bond.
摘要:
A hollow fibre containing one or more layers having a mean pore size in one or more of said layers of less than 100μm. The invention also extends to a method for preparing porous hollow fibres and to the apparatus for preparing said fibres.
