Abstract:
The leader attached to a web of film is cut from the film while processing the film in a photographic processing machine. Before feeding the film to the printing unit, the leader is separated from the film. At a turning point where the film feed direction extending from the film drying unit to the printing unit changes, the film is fed straight ahead and the leader is cut off the film by a cutter. The film is fed back in a reverse direction and its end is turned up by a guide. When the printing unit gets vacant, the film without the leader is fed into the printing unit.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a regenerated cellulose hollow fiber membrane having a hollow portion continuously penetrating in the direction of the fiber axis, a wet porosity of 60 to 95%, and an albumin sieving coefficient not larger than 0.15 at hemofiltration. The hollow fiber membrane preferably has an average pore radius in the wet state of 40 to 250 angstroms, and the mass transfer coefficient for .beta..sub.2 -microglobulin of at least 2.times.10.sup.-5 cm/sec. The hollow fiber membrane preferably contains polyethylene glycol and has the albumin sieving coefficient not larger than 0.10. The hollow fiber membrane is especially useful for hemofiltration therapy such as hemodialysis.
