摘要:
Generation of output or reports on information contained in a data source which may be any of two or more types of source data, in a standardized or uniform manner is provided. A plurality of drivers (804a-804d) are provided specific to different types of source data sources (806a-806d) e.g. for use in defining a new database (808). Preferably the new database (808) is configured to permit highly flexible and/or rapid output or reporting or is otherwise optimized for reporting purposes. In one embodiment, the present invention includes conversion of one or more data sources (806a-806d) into one or more uniform databases (808), preferably generating one or more key categories for organizing the data, optionally generating category groupings or rollups and additional data or optional references (815). In another embodiment, one or more databases (901-910) are created which have a degree of uniformity of structure, eventhough they may be based on two or more different data sources which may have very different structures. The different data sources are automatically analyzed and this analysis can be used to identify and/or create categories of data for use in organizing the information.

The present invention relates to apparatus (5) and method for the controlled delivery of fluid. The apparatus (5) comprises chemical reactants (65, 70) which combine to generate gas and create pressure to drive a fluid (20) from a container (17). The reactants (65, 70) and the environment in which the reaction occurs are controlled, thereby causing the fluid (20) to be delivered from the device (5) at a predetermined flow rate.

The present invention relates to a fibrinogen concentrate which is characterized in that it is free of viral contaminants and in that its purity is higher than 95 %. The present invention also relates to the process for obtaining such fibrinogen concentrate.
摘要:
The compound (W-Z-M) of the invention comprises an element (M) selected from the group consisting of markers and therapeutic agents having an intracellulary active site (S.A), linked to a ligand (W-Z) that comprises an arm (Z) linked to a terminal grouping (W). The compound is characterized in that the binding between the arm (Z) of the ligand (W-Z) and the element (M) prevents the compound (W-Z-M) from penetrating within the cells and/or inhibits expression of the marker (M). The invention is also characterized in that this binding is selectively separable by factors secreted by target cells so as to enable the marker (M) to be expressed in the target cells or the therapeutic agent (M) to penetrate therein, and in that the terminal grouping (W) ensures that the compound (W-Z-M) is stable in serum and circulating blood.
摘要:
Synthetic ribozymes, i.e. ribozymes including a hairpin portion, binding sites for binding to a human papilloma virus (HPV) after viral base 419 or 434, respectively, and cleavage sites for cleaving HPV virus are disclosed. The invention also includes a diagnostic assay for determining the presence of HPV-16 in tissues based on PCR amplification.
摘要:
Analogs of angiotensin II are useful in accelerating wound healing. These analogs form the basis of compositions useful for accelerating wound healing, in which the active agent is present in an amount effective to accelerate wound healing. Preferably, the compositions are in the form of matrical or micellar solutions.
摘要:
A method for preparing a bismuth vanadate based pigment by (1) reacting an acidic bismuth nitrate solution with an alkaline ammonium metavanadate solution and optionally with other salts, to form a bismuth vanadate based precipitate in a highly acidic reaction medium with a pH of 1-2; (2) adding a base until the pH of the reaction medium is around 7; (3) raising the temperature to over 80 C in around 30 minutes while holding the pH at 7 by means of a base; (4) stirring for 30 minutes to over 2 hours until the pH is around 6.5; and (5) filtering, washing and drying the pigment. The resulting products and their use in dyeing paints, lacquers and/or plastics are also disclosed.
摘要:
The invention relates to a boiler (1) wherein at least one steam generating circuit comprises an ejector (25) capable of providing induced circulation of water in the boiler in normal operating conditions. The corresponding water/steam separation reservoir (17) is arranged at any height with respect to the outlet collector (manifold) (15) of the evaporator device (11) of said circuit.

Garniture de tambours rotatifs destinée aux installations de lavage notamment de véhicules. Cette garniture est réalisée sous forme d'une bande relativement étroite (2) enroulée hélicoïdalement sur le tambour (1). La bande est constituée d'un substrat pourvu de monofilaments, de préférence disposés selon une ou plusieurs rangées qui présente une forme torsadée, de préférence celle d'un polygone à côtés concaves.
摘要:
A method for the manufacture of artificial teeth, either replacement whole teeth or crowns, whereby a tooth is produced by machining from a layered block of synthetic plastics materials, the layers being of predetermined varying color (hue), chroma, value and translucency to simulate the pulp, dentine and enamel layers in a real tooth, thereby providing an artificial tooth with the distribution and depth of color of a real tooth. The process provides for varying the tooth color by milling the tooth from a different section of the layered block to vary the thicknesses of the layers, at least at the labial, mesial, distal and occlusal surfaces, so as to obtain a custom tooth matched very closely to a patient's real tooth color and pattern. The process permits the manufacture of an artificial tooth from materials with a hardness closely matching that of a real tooth to provide similar wear properties.
