Abstract:
The present invention relates to a container (1) with a sidewall (2) and a base which is connected to the lower end of the sidewall and a membrane (4) which confines a compartment (7) within the container and which is sealed to the sidewall in an area distant from the rim (8) of the container at a sealing area and which can be pulled off.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a container, particularly a cup, with a base and a first sidewall, whereas the first-sidewall comprises at least a first, at least partially circumferential shaping directed inwardly and/or outwardly.

Abstract:
Becher (1) mit einem Boden (2) und einem daran anschließenden Mantel (3), wobei der Mantel an seinem vom Boden abgewandten Ende mit einer Mundrolle (4) versehen und ein oder mehrlagig ausgebildet sein kann, wobei wenigstens eine Lage des Mantels aus Papier oder Pappe oder anderen vergleichbaren Materialien hergestellt ist, wobei wenigstens eine Lage des Mantels im wesentlichen über ihre gesamte Höhe und wenigstens annähernd den gesamten Umfang mit Erhebungen (9) und/oder Vertiefungen (10) versehen ist, wobei der Tiefenunterschied zwischen maximaler Erhöhung bzw. Vertiefung und Materiallage bzw. Vertiefung bzw. Erhöhung über die Höhe des Mantels und/oder über den Umfang variiert, und daß die Mundrolle an der inneren oder einzigen Lage angeformt sein kann.
Abstract:
A method and system for ballast water treatment are provided. A vacuum is applied directly to an existing vent of a vessel's ballast water tank during the vessel's voyage. The applied vacuum is in a range of approximately -2 to -4 pounds per square inch. To further assure success, living organisms can be added into the ballast water tank to consume (i) oxygen dissolved in the ballast water, and (ii) food sources for selected organisms contained in the ballast water. No modifications to the vessel's ballast water tank are required as all system components are coupled to the existing vent.
Abstract:
Pusher (5) for the compression of a shaping (11, 12) in the sidewall (2) of a container, the pusher (5) being axially displaceable and comprising means (9) to limit the radial extension of the compressed shaping (12).

Abstract:
A container (101), suitable for the inclusion of at least one product therein, which comprises an integral, activatable, heating (or cooling) system for the product, which container includes a lining, the lining and container defining at least three mutually segregatable zones, these being i) one or more zones in which product may be contained; ii) a zone (116) in which a first kind of chemical reactant may be contained and iii) a zone (115) in which a second kind of chemical reactant may be contained, the container including a rotatable activator (107), for example, an activation knob, located at the exterior of the container, and, rotatably mounted within the container, and operative by rotation of the activator, means for terminating the segregation of ii) and iii) wherein the upper of ii) and iii) is not located so as to impede in service, heat transference from the reactant mass to i) (or vice versa) container suitable for the inclusion of at least one product therein, which comprises an integral, activatable, heating (or cooling) system for the product, which container includes a lining, the lining and container defining at least three mutually segregatable zones, these being i) one or more zones in which product may be contained; ii) a zone in which a first kind of chemical reactant may be contained and iii) a zone in which a second kind of chemical reactant may be contained, the container including a rotatable activator, for example, an activation knob, located at the exterior of the container, and, rotatably mounted within the container, and operative by rotation of the activator, means for terminating the segregation of ii) and iii) wherein the upper of ii) and iii) is not located so as to impede in service, heat transference from the reactant mass to i) (or vice versa).
Abstract:
The invention provides methods of inducing immune tolerance to target antigens in individuals seropositive for certain infectious agents by administration of epitopes derived from those infectious agents. Epitopes derived from viruses which carry homologues of interleukin 10 (IL-10) in their genome, such as Epstein Barr virus and cytomegalovirus, are particularly suitable for these purposes. Particularly preferred is the use of the EBV LMP1 protein and epitopes thereof.
Abstract:
A lid assembly comprising a lid portion (2) and a frame portion (4), one said portion being adapted to receive the other portion to seal a container (12) fitted with the lid assembly wherein the receiving portion has tamper-evident means connected thereto as a frangible bridge (24) while the other portion has a hinged tab (28) and wherein, in the untampered state, the frangible bridge (24) is intact and prevents rotation of the hinged tab while, on breaking the frangible bridge, the hinged tab (28) is able to rotate about its hinge, allowing opening of the lid.
