摘要:
Insecticidal and acaricidal compositions comprising an insecticidally or acaricidally effective amount of a 1,2,5-thiadiazole of the formula (I); wherein R, Q and m are as defined in admixture with at least one agriculturally acceptable extender or adjuvant are disclosed. In addition, methods of controlling insects and acarids comprising applying said compositions to a locus of crops where control is desired are disclosed.
摘要:
It has now been found that certain tricyclic derivatives have provided unexpected insecticidal activity. These compounds are represented by formula I: wherein R1 through R8, inclusively, and X and Y are fully described. Compositions comprising an insecticidally effective amount of at least one compound of formula I, and optionally, an effective amount of at least one of a second compound, with at least one insecticidally compatible carrier are also disclosed; along with methods of controlling insects comprising applying said compositions to the locus where insects are present or are expected to be present.

An In The Ear (ITE) microphone improves the acoustic response of a Behind The Ear (BTE) Implantable Cochlear Stimulation (ICS) system during telephone use. The microphone includes means for adjusting the position of the microphone to receive sound waves through a port. An acoustic seal provided by holding a telephone earpiece against the ear provides improved coupling of low frequency (up to about 1 KHz) sound waves, sufficient to overcome losses due to the near field acoustic characteristics common to telephones. In an exemplary embodiment, the ITE microphone is connected to a removable ear hook of the BTE ICS system by a short bendable stalk.

An improved hair-clip rotatably secures a headpiece of a Implantable Cochlear Stimulation (ICS) system adjacent to an implantable device of the ICS system. The hair-clip includes three fingers to securely grasp the headpiece around the cylindrical edge of the headpiece, while allowing rotation of the headpiece relative to the hair-clip. Both power and control signals are transmitted transcutaneously from the head piece to the implantable device. Efficient transmission of these signals requires that the headpiece be securely held in close alignment to the implantable device. The improved hair-clip securely holds the headpiece in place, and allows the headpiece to be rotated to position the headpiece cable. The ability to position the cable allows a user to achieve a comfortable and inconspicuous cable routing. The hair-clip also provides: retention regardless of skin flap thickness, secure retention during physical activity, and permits magnet-less retention thus minimizing interference with MRI examination.

A water-repellent microphone and an improved method for constructing such a water-repellent microphone provides easy assembly and good acoustic performance. In one embodiment, a water-repellent membrane and a washer are pre-assembled. The surface of the washer opposite the membrane is covered by an adhesive, and the adhesive is covered by a removable liner. The method of assembly comprises removing the liner, and pressing the membrane and washer over the sound port of the microphone. The washer provides spacing between the microphone and the membrane and increases the membrane area through which sound passes, thus providing good acoustic performance. In a second embodiment, the washer is provided as a separate element with adhesives and liners on both sides. A first liner is removed and the washer is attached to the membrane or the microphone, and then the second liner is removed and the assembly is completed.

An In The Ear (ITE) microphone which converts audio sounds into electrical signals which are then processed by a speech processor to generate electrical pulses to stimulate nerves in the cochlea, improves the acoustic response of a Behind The Ear (BTE) Implantable Cochlear Stimulation (ICS) system during telephone use. An acoustic seal provided by holding a telephone earpiece against the ear provides improved coupling of low frequency (up to about 1 KHz) sound waves, sufficient to overcome losses due to the near field acoustic characteristics common to telephones. In an exemplary embodiment, the ITE microphone is connected to a removable ear hook of the BTE ICS system by a short bendable stalk.

Described and depicted are pelvic sling implant and delivery systems. The sling implants can be used in treating stress incontinence and other pelvic floor disorders. The sling systems can include a mesh extension or support portion and one or more tip anchors. A delivery tool can include a handle (61), a needle (62) and a sheath (70), with the sheath having an elongate shaft portion slidable along at least a portion of the needle. The sheath can further include a distal hood portion having opposed flared portions (78) defining interior pleat channels adapted to selectively seat tine ends of the anchors.
