Abstract in simplified Chinese:揭示一种眼科镜片,其适合用于延长眼睛配戴至少一天的期间,而没有临床上显着数量的角膜肿胀,也不会造成配戴者实质上的不适。此镜片具备平衡的氧渗透性和离子或水渗透性,其离子或水渗透性足以提供优良的眼上运动,如此使镜片和眼睛之间达到良性的眼泪交换。一种较佳的镜片为氧气渗透性巨体和离子渗透性单体之间的共聚合产物。本发明涵盖配戴的隐形镜片,其包括具备氧渗透性和离子渗透性路径的芯,该路径从内表面延伸到外表面。
Abstract in simplified Chinese:一种适合用于使用自耗性电极(自耗性焊条)之电弧焊接之接触尖端,其具有一本体,该本体界定一个镗孔,电极可通过该镗孔,因而让来自焊接电源供应器的电流可由本体传输至电极。镗孔介于入口端与出口端间之部分长度,本体有至少一区为一次接触区,本体于该区适合与电极做一次电接触。顺着镗孔长度其余部分,本体系设计适合让沿其余部分之本体与电极间之二次接触实质不会短路于镗孔一次接触区的一次电接触。
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of identifying a subject with a Plasmodium infection. The present invention also relates to a method for monitoring a subject with a Plasmodium infection, for example, following treatment with an anti-malaria compound. Also provided are methods of identifying a compound to treat a Plasmodium infection.
Abstract:
An insect trap includes a housing having a support frame; a skin of flexible transparent or translucent material attached to and covering the support frame to thereby provide a housing interior which is substantially totally exposed to sunlight. A walk through passage extends through the housing, and the flexible skin is spaced from the walk through passage to provide a spacing in the housing. One or more partitions are located in the spacing along with brush elements forming a dense curtain in the walk through passage for brushing flies off an animal passing through the housing in the walk through passage. The brush elements are formed from dark material in contrast to the flexible skin so that insects parted from the animal by the brush elements will be attracted to the flexible skin for subsequent desiccation.
