摘要:
An optical tomography system for imaging an object of interest including a light source for illuminating the object of interest with a plurality of radiation beams. The object of interest is held within an object containing tube such that it is illuminated by the plurality of radiation beams to produce emerging radiation from the object containing tube, a detector array is located to receive the emerging radiation and produce imaging data used by a mechanism for tracking the object of interest.

An air flap device (10) for a cooling or/and freezing appliance of kitchen equipment comprises an air flap (18) which is mounted so that it can pivot about a first axis of rotation (20) between an open position and a closed position, uncovers an air passage opening for the passage of air in the open position and at least substantially blocks the air passage opening against the passage of air in the closed position, and a motor-driven flap operating mechanism for pivoting the air flap. According to the invention, the flap operating mechanism comprises a rotary member (26) which is disposed so as to be driven about a second axis of rotation (28) as well as a separate force transmission member (32) which serves to transmit force between the rotary member and the air flap, is coupled to the rotary member at a point lying eccentrically to the second axis of rotation and is coupled to the air flap (18) at a point lying at a distance from the first axis of rotation.
摘要:
A method for creating networks of perfusable microvessels in vitro. A mandrel is drawn through a matrix to form a channel through the matrix. Cells are injected into the channel. The matrix is incubated to allow the cells to attach inside the channel. The channel is perfused to remove unattached cells to create a parent vessel, where the parent vessel includes a perfusable hollow channel lined with cells in the matrix. The parent vessel is induced to create sprouts into the surrounding matrix gel so as to form a microvessel network. The microvessel network is subjected to luminal perfusion through the parent vessel.

The present invention accordingly provides new organopolysiloxanes having (meth)acrylic ester groups attached pendent and terminally or only pendent via SiOC groups, of the general average formula (I) and also provides a process for preparing the compounds by reacting polysiloxanes containing SiH groups with (meth)acrylated monoalcohols and/or (meth)acrylated polyalcohols using Lewis-acid catalysts or catalysts comprising an acid and salts thereof.
摘要:
This invention relates to a process for the preparation of a stabilized aqueous alkali metal-2-hydroxy-4,6-dichloro-s-triazine (AHDT) solution, which entails starting at 5 to 40° C. with a solution containing either the corresponding alkali hydrogencarbonate, acetone, or a mixture thereof, and then, while cooling, adding cyanuric chloride and an alkali lye simultaneously in such a manner that the reaction temperature does not exceed 25° C. and the pH does not drop below 5.5, and during a subsequent stirring time of 2 to 30 hours adding either a very small quantity of alkali lauryl sulfate if the original starting solution contained hydrogencarbonate, or adding alkali hydrogencarbonate if exclusively acetone was used in the first reaction step, and then finally adding an alkali borate and/or a dialkali hydrogenphosphate and/or potassium hexacyanoferrate (II) as buffer. The pH, which should be ≧7.0 during the entire process, may, if necessary, be adjusted with an acid to a value between 8.0 and 9.5. The invention also provides for the same alkali metal to be used in all steps of the process. In particular as a result of the alkali hydrogencarbonate co-stabilizer, one obtains with this relatively simple process, after very short reaction times, AHDT solutions which remain stable for a long time and which do not release CO2 at any time during their synthesis, storage or use.
