An apparatus and method for preventing a load of clothing from becoming unbalanced during the spin cycle of a washing machine includes a control circuit which causes the washing machine to alternately spin and agitate during the spin cycle of the washing machine. The apparatus includes a pair of electrical relays, a power supply, and logic circuitry. The apparatus and method may include components...

The present invention is related to a file server particularly suited for video-on-demand service based on decentralization of files contained in the nodes over a configuration formed by nodes serving a single user or multiple users, each equipped with a magnetic or optical mass memory unit. Such nodes are designed to serve not only their own users but also other nodes of the decentralized file se...

An improved method for the recovery of lead from exhausted lead-acid storage batteries, comprising removal from the storage battery of the sulphuric acid solution, the coating element, the separators between the electrodes and the metal part i.e. grids, connectors and poles and milling of the remaining electrode paste of the storage battery to obtain an extremely fine powder (pastel),...

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for the controlled iontophoretic transdermal delivery of a drug comprising a combination of a drug and an electrically conductive carrier, wherein the administration of the drug to the patient is intended to be enhanced by leading an electrical current from said composition to the patient's skin. According to the invention the electrica...

A method, a solution and a chamber for the preparation and storage of pancreatic islets. The method comprising contacting a pancreas with a warm collagenase solution, digesting the pancreas in the warm collagenase solution to form warm digest, adding cold preservative solution to the warm digest, agitating the warm digest/cold preservative solution at a temperature between about 0.degree. and 15.d...

Preferably the ...

Producing chiral selectors for the analysis of optically active substances using a combinatorial library. - Also claimed are: - (1) methods for producing chiral selectors using a biological or chemically synthesised combinatorial library, or using a phage-based combinatorial peptide library, and - (2) chiral selectors (and their derivatives) produced by these methods, in which the binding strength...

In accordance with the present invention, for noise cancellation, a reference noise signal is input to signal-to-noise (SN) power ratio estimating circuitry via a reference signal input terminal. The SN power ratio estimating circuitry causes its adaptive filter for producing a pseudonoise signal from the reference noise signal to operate. The circuitry detects error signal power and pseudonoise s...

The system is driven by compressed air, permitting simple exchange of the mobile carriage (5) with the vessel (13). A single modularly constructed capsule has a front piece, two side pieces and a hood, forming a module which can be installed individually or in conjunction with several multi-module capsules (40). The hood is installed with joint points in the gable sides so that opening can occur w...
