Syringe has a barrel holding a piston on a plunger rod which has a resilient blocking member contacting the barrel inside surface to engage the sharp edge of a recess in the surface extending from the edge towards the needle end of the barrel. Engagement of the member with the edge prevents further retraction of the rod towards the barrel rear end. The rod is pref. slidably connected with the pist...

Bioremediation or other liquid waste biotreatment operations are enhanced by the use of turbulence promoters (36-38) to create turbulent flow conditions in an oxygen/liquid waste dispersion prior to passage in an improved gas/liquid distribution system for passage through eductors (32-35) into a lagoon or other holding source of the liquid waste being treated.

Highly absorbent nonwoven webs formed from readily available nonwoven materials and having a polyelectrolyte super-absorbent polymeric sorbent coating the individual fibers of the nonwoven web are disclosed. The polymeric sorbent coating absorbs liquid while minimizing occlusion of the interstices of the web.

Case PI-5885 PREPARATION OF ARYL-SUBSTITUTED OLEFINS A process for dehydrohalogenation of aryl-substituted aliphatic halohydrocarbons is disclosed. The process employs a catalytically effective amount of palladium(0) and a phosphoruscontaining ligand. An inorganic or organic base is also required to effect this reaction.

Rod-shaped, flexible core (6) of drainage elements (2) placed in pressing space (1) of a fruit press has several longitudinal grooves (8, 13) on its periphery, by which the extracted juice is conveyed to juice collecting spaces (5). The free ends of each drainage element (2) are detachably fastened by drainage locks (3) to juice collecting plates (4) bordering pressing space (1). In the area of ri...

A method and apparatus is provided for forming bumps on a plurality of IC chips arranged in a checkered pattern on a wafer. The bumps are formed from bump bases fixed to each IC chip. A forming tool having a recessed part of a height that is greater than the height of the bump bases is used to deform the bump bases into bumps. The forming tool is pressed by an elevating driving device against the ...

A semiconductor treatment apparatus has a gas-phase decomposing device for decomposing a gas-phase on a surface of a semiconductor substrate, a substrate supporting device for supporting the substrate, and a ssubstrate transfer device for transferring the substrate between the gas-phase decomposing device and the substrate supporting device. The apparatus further has a liquid-drop applicator for a...

DETECTION OF AMPLIFIED NUCLEIC ACID USING SECONDARY CAPTURE OLIGONUCLEOTIDES AND TEST KIT A target nucleic acid can be amplified and detected using a water-insoluble capture probe having a short oligonucleotide (15-20 nucleotides) covalently attached to a polymeric particle, and one or more secondary oligonucleotides. The capture probe and secondary oligonucleotides are complementary to the target...
