Abstract: A method implemented by an image recording unit having a normal state and an error state of operation. The method includes: receiving metadata specifying information about a patient and/or an endoscopic procedure; receiving images generated by an image sensor of an endoscope, the images corresponding to optical images received by the image sensor and comprising single images and/or a stream of images; controlling a display to show the images; in response to a first user input in the normal state, storing the images and the metadata in a memory of the image recording unit, and in the error state, overwriting with new data at least some of the metadata.

Abstract: The present invention primarily relates to a process for production of one or more flavourings selected from the group consisting of non-saturated aldehydes, non-saturated lactones and organosulphuric compounds, the process comprising providing a culture medium comprising one or more components supporting growth of a fungus from the phylum Basidiomycota and being convertable to one or more flavourings selected from the group consisting of non-saturated aldehydes, non-saturated lactones and organosulfur aroma compounds; cultivating a fungus from the phylum Basidiomycota in or on the culture medium under conditions that support the growth of the fungus and formation of the one or more flavourings, and optionally recovering the one or more flavourings.

Abstract: A filler device includes a distal housing comprising a distal inner port and a distal outer port; a proximal housing comprising a proximal inner port and a proximal outer port, the proximal housing being sealingly affixed to the distal housing to form an inspiratory pathway between the distal inner port and the proximal inner port and to form an expiratory pathway between the distal outer port and the proximal outer port that is fluidly sealed from the inspiratory pathway, the inspiratory pathway being laterally adjacent the expiratory pathway; and a first filter in the inspiratory pathway or in the expiratory pathway to filter gases flowing through the inspiratory pathway or the expiratory pathway.

Abstract: A can formed of a thin-walled material, especially sheet metal or metal plate, whose can body is provided with beads extending essentially in axial direction and circumferential direction for the purpose of increasing the strength of the can bodies. In particular, these are provided primary beads extending in a first direction, and protuberances or raised portions forming auxiliary beads extending essentially perpendicular to the primary beads flow into or continuously merge with the primary beads.

Abstract: An improved container in form of a barrel, drum can or the like, specifically a sheet metal container. The circumferential wall of the container is provided with horizontally extending corrugations or beads, respectively, and vertically extending corrugations. The vertically extending corrugations are ordered in groupwise spaced arrangements. Such container has improved loading characteristics in the axial and circumferential direction thereof and has an improved impact resistance.
