摘要： A device to encourage hand washing compliance in a facility such as a restroom includes a housing configured for detachably mounting on a support surface. An ambient light sensor is disposed relative to the housing to detect ambient light within the room. An audio device within the housing contains at least one audible hand washing compliance message track that is played over a speaker within the housing. A controller is in operable communication with the ambient light sensor and the audio device, and activates the device upon determining whether a threshold amount of ambient light is present in the room.

摘要： An improved absorbent consumer paper product is made on an improved drying fabric that forms an aesthetically pleasing and functionally superior pattern on the paper web before creping. The drying fabric is characterized by a plurality of shute threads extending substantially parallel to each other in a cross-direction of the drying fabric; and a plurality of warp threads extending substantially parallel to each other in a machine direction of the drying fabric. The shute and warp threads are woven together so as to define a number of relatively long warp knuckles at locations where one of said warp threads crosses over at least four of the shute threads. The long warp knuckles are positioned in a shed pattern so as to form (a) a first axis of bulky ridges that are defined by long warp knuckles which are positioned next to each other on adjacent warp threads, the first axis being disposed at a first angle with respect to the cross-direction of the drying fabric that is substantially within the range of greater than 68 degrees but less than 90 degrees; and (b) a second axis formed by each of the long warp knuckles with other, overlapping long warp knuckles on nearby, but not immediately adjacent, warp threads, the second axis forming a second angle with respect to the cross-direction of the drying fabric and being less than about 28 degrees.

摘要： An inflatable support cushion conformed to fit within the tub cavity of a bathtub forms a generally inclined upper membrane upon inflation aligned to drain the water shed by the user towards the tub drain. The upper membrane is provided with higher elastic coefficient bands towards its periphery to further form drainage channels on inflation. An air pump may be connected either to inflate the cushion to raise the handicapped bather to the tub edge height or may be connected to deflate the cushion for bathing.

摘要： The present invention encompasses a machine direction extensible noncalendered fibrous web produced by a transfer system of at least eight percent negative draw including a matrix of fibrous web material having a wet mullen burst at least about 10 percent greater than a convex transfer system produced web. In addition, the matrix of fibrous material has a wet mullen burst of at least about 74500 pascals. Moreover, the matrix of fibrous web material has a GMBL ranging from about 2047 to about 2704. Furthermore, the matrix of fibrous web material includes fibers, which may be selected from the group consisting of a bonded carded web, spunbonded web, meltblown fiber web, and multi-ply fibrous web. Moreover, the matrix of fibrous web material may have an elmendorf tear greater than about 66.5 centinewton. Also, the matrix of fibrous web material may have a tensile modulus of at least about 1544 gram per centimeter squared. Additionally, the matrix of fibrous web material may have greater strength at lower negative draw percent. Furthermore, the matrix of fibrous web material may have a greater machine direction toughness at about the same GMBL as a convex transfer produced web.

摘要： Compositions that bind viral proteins that are specifically expressed during the latent stage of the viral life cycle are disclosed. These compositions bind the latent viral proteins while the viral proteins are expressed in their cellular host, and provide a means for targeting cells that harbor latent virus. In a preferred embodiment the compositions are antibodies which bind the extracellular region of the latent viral protein, most preferably LMP-2A, an EBV latent protein, which are conjugated to a diagnostic or cytotoxic agent or immobilized to a solid support for removal of the infected cells. These antibodies are capable of distinguishing cells expressing EBV DNA from cells which are not expressing EBV DNA. Compositions that can be used to elicit production of these antibodies, or as a vaccine, are also disclosed. Methods for generating diagnostic or cytotoxic reagents and vaccines based on the viral epitopes that identify cells harboring latent virus are also disclosed. The antibody conjugates can be used in diagnostic assays to identify cells expressing latent viral protein and people who are harboring latent viral particles. The antibody conjugates can also be used to remove the infected cells or to kill the infected the cells. Alternatively, or in addition, the viral proteins or portions thereof can be used as a vaccine to induce an immune reaction by the host to kill the infected cells. These methods can be used to detect or treat patients harboring latent viruses like EBV and who are at risk of developing a disease such as an autoimmune disease like systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

摘要： A stack of interleaved towels is provided wherein each towel is configured from a sheet of material having a first fold offset from a centerline of the sheet to generate a first panel folded toward a first surface of the sheet and extending between the first fold and a first end of the sheet. A second fold in the sheet is made substantially parallel to the first fold to create a second panel extending between the first and second folds and a third panel extending between the second fold and a second end of the sheet such that the first end of the sheet is positioned between the second and third panels. In the stack, the third panel of each towel is disposed adjacent the first panel of an adjacent towel such that the towels are interleaved.

摘要： Disclosed is a method for reducing the moisture content of a paper web in a papermaking process from in the range of 10% to 32% dry to the range of 33% to 50% dry wherein the embryonic web is supported on a knuckled through drier fabric and lightly pressed between the knuckled through drier fabric and a capillary membrane of a capillary dewatering roll. The capillary membrane has capillary pores therethrough which have a substantially straight through, non-tortuous path with a pore aspect ratio of from about 2 to about 20. A vacuum is drawn within the capillary dewatering roll which is not greater than the negative capillary suction pressure of the capillary pores.
