    摘要: An apparatus for treating varicose veins includes a catheter (20) where the distal end is placed within a varicose vein and the proximal portion remains outside the body of the subject. A heating element (22) heats the vein. A cooling element (62) can be applied to an external surface of the skin above the vicinity of the heating element. A control unit (26) can drive the heating element to apply heat to the vein simultaneously. Alternatively, the control unit can apply a current to the heating element to resistively heat a resistive element. A method for treating a varicose vein includes inserting the elongated heating element into the vein, and driving the heating element to apply heat to the segment of vein simultaneously from the entire active heating portion.

    摘要: An electrokinetic method for separating molecular species employs the surface of moving charged colloidal particles in a buffered dispersing medium, in a process which combines electrophoresis and a variant of chromatography in which the "stationary phase" surface moves. The colloidal particles have on their surface a material having the ability to interact selectively with the molecular species to be separated. The surface of the particles as originally formed may have such an ability, or the surface is modified to produce it. In one embodiment the colloidal particles are negatively charged and the surface-modifying materials are metal ions. In another embodiment the surface of the colloidal particles is modified by the incorporation of affinity groups. The analytes distribute themselves between the dispersing medium and the surface of the colloidal particles, resulting in analyte migration rates which are functions of the individual distribution equilibrium constants and the rate of colloidal particle migration. A capillary column for conducting the method includes surface-modified charged colloidal particles in a buffered dispersing medium.

    摘要: Systems, apparatuses and methods are provided for use in closing punctures in vessel walls. An apparatus may have various combinations of an anchoring device, a positioning device and a heating element for closing a puncture within a vessel wall. An anchoring device may be a balloon, an expansible cage, a wire operated T-anchor, and/or a floating anchor. A positioning device may be a balloon, a sponge, and/or an expansible cage. A heating element may be flexible or rigid and preferably provides heat to target tissue through conduction and convection. A heating element may be flat-ended or dome-shaped. The heating element and anchoring device may be positioned a fixed distance apart to sandwich tissue between the heating element and the anchoring device. The heating element may operate in multiple stages. An initial stage may non-permanently adhere the heating element to the tissue and the subsequent stage may close the puncture.

    摘要: A microcapillary column for high performance electrophoresis. A preferred column includes a microcapillary, a thin layer of coating material covalently bonded to the inner surface of the microcapillary wall, a thin layer of a hydrophilic polymer absorbed on the layer of coating material, and a gel comprising polyacrylamide polymerized in the tube, filling it. The gel-containing microcapillary is prepared by covalently bonding a layer of a suitable coating material to the inner surface of the microcapillary wall, applying a layer of hydrophilic polymer, and then causing a mixture of monomer with or without crosslinking agent, initiator, and polymerization catalyst to react in the bore of the microcapillary to form a polymeric matrix. In electrophoresis, the gel-containing microcapillary provides peak efficiencies in excess of 100,000 theoretical plates and in some instances over 1,000,000 theoretical plates within separation times of less than thirty minutes, permits trace level determinations of molecular weights, and permits electrophoretic operation at fields of 300 V/cm or higher, resulting in extremely high resolution separations.
