摘要:
An apparatus according to various embodiments can be configured to use a cryogen for cooling articles, particularly having applications for chilling extrusions. The apparatus removes thermal energy from an article by conductive and convective heat transfer. The apparatus allows for heat transfer from an outer surface of an article, and from an inner surface of the article.
摘要:
A dog boot is provided comprising a generally vertical and cylindrical elongated tubular legging portion ending in and connected to a toe-box portion both of which are attached within a generally horizontal non-slide sole portion. The legging portion extends upwardly from the toe-box portion and defines an offset longitudinal slit providing adjacent, opposite, overlapping flap portions that are equipped with loop and hook fastening material allowing for ease of insertion and extraction of the dog's leg and paw. The generally tubular legging portion has two adjustable fastening straps for cinching the legging portion securely at two separate points around the dog's leg. Within the non-slide portion is a removable sole insert shaped to receive the pads of the dog's paw wherein the removable sole insert works as a shock absorber for the dog and adds comfort and stability during wear.
摘要:
A co-extrusion comprising at least one clear layer and at least one coloured layer wherein the at least one clear layer comprises approximately 50 to 95% of the total thickness of the co-extrusion and the at least one coloured layer comprises approximately 5 to 50% of the total thickness of the co-extrusion, the co-extrusion having a light transmittance of between 0 and 30% and providing a look of painted glass is disclosed.
摘要:
Coating agent for wooden or plastic surfaces containing 30 to 80% by weight of a polyolefin comprising at least two alkoxysilane groups, 5 to 40% by weight of at least one compound comprising (meth)acryl groups having 1 to 10 radiation-reactive groups, 0.1 to 6% by weight catalysts and initiators, 0 to 50% by weight adjuvants, selected from resins, adhesion promoters, stabilizers, pigments/fillers, softeners, waxes, thermoplastic polymers or water-binding agents, wherein the coating agent is solid at room temperature and can be cross-linked by actinic radiation and by moisture.
摘要:
A system and method for creation and verification of utility bills with improved error detection is disclosed. Specifically, a user-configurable data structure is provided, which is sufficiently flexible to precisely simulate any utility tariff. The invention further relates to a computerized system and method for verifying utility bills utilizing a user-configurable data structure that simulates a utility tariff.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods of producing a polypeptide having biological activity in a bacterial cell, comprising: (a) cultivating a bacterial host cell in a medium conducive for production of the polypeptide, wherein the bacterial host cell comprises a nucleic acid construct comprising a promoter region operably linked to a polynucleotide sequence encoding the polypeptide and a modified mRNA processing/stabilizing sequence located downstream of the promoter region and upstream of the ribosome binding site of the polynucleotide sequence encoding the polypeptide, wherein the modified mRNA processing/stabilizing sequence promotes higher expression of the polynucleotide sequence compared to an unmodified mRNA processing/stabilizing sequence; and (b) isolating the polypeptide having biological activity from the cultivation medium. The present invention also relates to such modified mRNA processing/stabilizing sequences, nucleic acid constructs, and bacterial host cells and to methods of obtaining such bacterial host cells.
摘要:
In various embodiments methods for automated screening for gene amplification in biological tissue samples using an automated fluorescence microscope to analyze fluorescence in situ hybridized samples are provided. Various additional embodiments provide methods of high throughput screening for gene amplification.
摘要:
A heat emitting beacon having a rotating parabolic mirror to concentrate the heat from a gas heat source, said mirror back being coated with a passive cold emission material comprised of a metalized plastic film creased and crumpled to form a multitude of reflective facets and preventing any reflected light. In a second embodiment, a rotating, single- or double-sided surface is coated with the passive cold emission material. In another embodiment, a signal beacon is comprised of a plurality of detachable strips of the passive cold emission material. In another embodiment, a plurality of surface elements covered with the passive cold emission material is arranged as a louver.
