摘要:
A method of treating carpet and other textile products comprising animal fibres or a mix of synthetic fibres and animal fibres. The method includes applying a formulation to carpet or other textile products. The formulation comprises compounds effective against the larvae of a range of Coleopteran species and a chemical which is effective against the larvae of a range of Lepidopteran species. The fluorosurfactant compound can offer only partial control of the larvae of a range of Lepidopteran species. The formulation can be added to the carpet, yarn, loose fibre or other textiles during raw-wool scouring, dyeing, tapescouring, chemsetting or continuous carpet treatment.

An apparatus (10) for casting metal ingots comprises a series of ingot moulds (12) mounted along an endless conveyor (11) which is arranged to be driven around spaced-apart rotatable members (15) and (17). A molten metal supplying device (20) has a discharge member for supplying molten metal to empty moulds (12) moving along an upper run (14) of the conveyor (11) from a supply end (16) to a discharge end (18) of the upper run (14) of the conveyor (11). A casting hood (13) overlies at least a portion of the moulds (12) on the upper run (14) of the conveyor (11). Adjacent moulds (12) of the portion of moulds are closely contiguous during passage beneath the casting hood (13) whereby passage of protective gas between said adjacent moulds is minimised. The casting hood (13) and the portion of moulds (120) form a substantially gas-tight enclosure above the portion of moulds (12) into which gas can be introduced. The enclosure houses the discharge member of the molten metal supplying device (20).

A filter for tobacco smoke comprises a free-radical inhibitor, particularly an O-alkylated derivative of 2,4-monofufurylidene sorbitol, together with an antioxidant to reduce the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the smoke.
摘要:
A method of treatment of androgen-related diseases such as prostate cancer in susceptible male animals, including humans, comprises administering novel antiandrogens and/or novel sex steroid biosynthesis inhibitors as part of a combination therapy. Sex steroid biosynthesis inhibitors, especially those capable of inhibiting conversion of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) or 4-androstenedione ( DELTA 4-dione) to natural sex steroida (and testosterone into dihydrotestosterone) in peripheral tissues, are used in combination with antiandrogens usually after blockade of testicular hormonal secretions. Antiestrogens can also be part of the combination therapy. Pharmaceutical compositions and two, three, four and five component kits are useful for such combination treatment.
摘要:
Récipient comportant un corps de récipient (1) composé d'un matériau à base de carton et présentant à une de ses extrémités une ouverture supérieure, et à l'autre extrémité une ouverture inférieure. Le récipient comporte également un fond (4) destiné à fermer l'ouverture supérieure du corps du récipient. Afin de permettre l'obtention d'un récipient de structure simple et facile à ouvrir, le rebord de ladite ouverture supérieure comporte une section continue sensiblement tronconique et s'étendant vers l'ouverture supérieure qu'elle entoure, la génératrice de la section du corps formant un angle avec la génératrice du corps du récipient. Le couvercle (7) possède une section tronconique (8) dont l'angle de conicité correspond sensiblement à celui de la section tronconique du corps (1), ladite section du couvercle étant fixée de manière amovible à la section tronconique du corps.
摘要:
This utility model presents two fundamental features: a) telescopic loading bridge; b) ballast tank mounted on motor crawler tracks. Feature a) enables the adjustment of the landing stage to any type of boats and/or coasters, and the appropriate adjustment of the landing stage's length to any littoral, high tide and to any exceptional conditions which might arise during the normal operating time. The retractility function enables the easy removal of the landing stage from its designated location; Feature b) enables to move the whole structure to safer locations when the original location is exposed to particularly strong surges which might endanger the stability and the normal functioning of the landing stage. Once the exceptional condition has ceased, the motor crawler tracks will enable the landing stage to return to its normal functioning. Said feature therefore reduces the eventual "inactivity" of the landing stage.
摘要:
The flowability of crystalline sucralose can be increased by treating the crystalline material in a fluidised bed at ambient temperature with additions of water, followed by a fluidised drying phase. Fluidisation by means of an upward current of air at 25-35 °C and added water at 20-50 % by weight, e.g. 25-40 %, is preferred.
摘要:
A pharmaceutical composition comprises a gallium complex of desferrioxamine or penicillamine as active ingredient therein, in combination with a pharmacologically acceptable carrier. The gallium desferrioxamine or gallium penicillamine complex are useful in the treatment of free radical-induced pathological conditions; the treatment of injury resulting from ischemic insult to the heart, brain or kidney; the treatment of thallasemia; the treatment of hemochromatosis; the treatment of Wilson disease; the treatment of paraquat toxicity; or for exchanging gallium for iron.
摘要:
Sex steroid precursors such as dehydroepiandrosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate, and compounds converted in vivo to either of the foregoing, are utilized for the treatment and/or prevention of vaginal atrophy, hypogonadism, diminished libido, osteoporosis, urinary incontinence, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, skin atrophy, for contraception, and, in combination with an estrogen and/or progestin, for the treatment of menopause. The precursors may be formulated for percutaneous or transmucosal administration. Gels, solutions, lotions, creams, ointments and transdermal patches for the administration of these presursors are provided, as are certain pharmaceutical compositions and kits which can be used for the prevention and treatment of a wide variety of conditions related to decreased secretion of sex steroid precursors by the adrenals.
