摘要:
A liquid preservative for plated or unplated metal surfaces and surfaces of coatings, in the form of an aqueous wax dispersion which contains a special ethylene/acrylic acid copolymer wax, consisting of from 8 to 25% by weight of acrylic acid units and from 92 to 75% by weight of ethylene units, in partially or completely neutralized form, if appropriate as a mixture with waxes based on polyethylene oxidation products and/or hydrocarbon waxes, the use of this special ethylene/acrylic acid copolymer wax for preserving plated or unplated metal surfaces and surfaces of coatings, and a process for temporarily preserving metal surfaces and surfaces of coatings.
摘要:
Water-soluble copolymers which consist of from 40 to 90% by weight of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monocarboxylic acids of 3 to 5 carbon atoms, from 60 to 10% by weight of one or more ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acids of 4 to 8 carbon atoms and/or of the corresponding dicarboxylic acid anhydride and, if required, not more than 15% by weight, based on the total weight of the carboxyl-containing monomers, of one or more carboxyl-free monomers, and which are esterified with from 2 to 60% by weight, based on the total weight of the carboxyl-containing monomers, of one or more compounds which contain a terminal hydroxyl group and one or more alkylene oxide groups of 2 to 4 carbon atoms, the preparation of such water-soluble copolymers and their use as assistants in detergents, cleansing and dishwashing agents.
摘要:
A surgical fixation system including a pair of spinal rods, an occipital fixation element (comprising either an occipital plate or a plurality of occipital anchors), a crosslink connector, and a plurality of anchor elements, including but not limited to friction-fit pedicle screws, favored-angle pedicle screws, and laminar hooks. Any or all of these elements may be made of a biologically inert material, preferably any metal customarily used for surgical devices, such as for example titanium or stainless steel. The surgical fixation system of the present invention is described herein for application to the posterior region of the human spine, for attachment to cervical and/or thoracic vertebrae, as well as the occiput portion of the skull.

An adjustable length corpectomy device is provided with a means for providing bidirectional length adjustment and a means for selectively fixing the length of the implant.
摘要:
An instrument guide and implant holding device is provided which releasably secures an implant to the instrument guide. The device provides a convenient guide for surgeons to perform various operative techniques on the subject bone without the need for separate devices, and allows all these operative techniques to be performed without removing the instrument guide from the dissected area until all operative techniques have been completed. The releasable mechanism allows the surgeon to easily hold the instrument to an implant using a simple press-fit approach, and easily releases from the implant with a minimal amount of force. An embodiment also allows the surgeon to releasably lock the cannula in a given orientation about the centroidal axis of the implant fastener hole.
摘要:
A method and system of ozone treatment diverts a portion of water from a flow of water in a conduit, injects ozone into the portion to provide an ozonated portion, and recombines the ozonated portion with the flow of water in the conduit. Another method and system identifies a species-destructive reaction product of ozone with a water constituent, determines a life of the reaction product, and contacts ozone with a water containing the species for a period determined according to the determined life of the reaction product.

α- and β-amino acid hydroxyethylamino sulfonamide compounds are effective as retroviral protease inhibitors, and in particular as inhibitors of HIV protease.
摘要:
A target biokill of species for water to be discharged from a ballast tank of a sea faring vessel is determined. A diverted portion of sea water is regulated prior to charging the water into the ballast tank. Regulation of the diverted portion of water and a rate of injection of the ozone into the portion are adjusted to attain the target biokill. Then ozone at the determined rate into the regulated diverted portion to attain the target biokill when the portion is recombined into the water for charging to the ballast tank.
