Abstract: An electrical heating evaporator for evaporating active substances such as perfumes and/or insecticides, in which the evaporation rate regulator includes an electrical heater resistor for which the power supplied is regulated through a potentiometer constructed on a printed circuit board. The evaporation rate can be adjusted for a wide variety of types of chemical substances, without the need of substantially modifying the design of the device.

Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar Citrus limon (L.) Brum.f. is provided which displays a substantially different time for initial fruit harvest than the standard ‘Primofiori’ cultivar (non-patented in the United States). The attractive juicy fruit of the new cultivar commonly is initially ready for harvest in about the middle of May. This follows greatly the typical November initial harvest time for the ‘Primofiori’ cultivar. The new cultivar is a diploid, and displays a relatively dense spreading growth habit. The supply of the fresh fruit market for consumption, use in beverages, and in cooking is facilitated at an atypical season of the year by the new cultivar.

Abstract: An air treatment device is described comprising: a housing having at least one air inlet and at least one air outlet with at least two discrete air passageways therebetween; wherein in a first of said passageways there is located a fan and at least one air filter retaining means arranged to releasably retain, in use, an air filter within one passageway; and wherein in a second of said passageways there is located at least one refill securing means arranged to releasably securing a refill of air treatment agent and emanation means in the form of one or more heaters; and wherein, in use, airflow through said at least two passageways is separate.

Abstract: An air treatment device is described that comprises: a housing having at least one air inlet and at least one air outlet with at least one air passageway therebetween; at least one fan located within said at least one air passageway; at least one air filter retaining means arranged to releasably retain, in use, an air filter within a passageway; at least one refill securing means arranged to releasably securing a refill of air treatment agent within the housing; emanation means within the housing; and wherein the housing is provided with a door to permit access to at least said air filter retaining means; and wherein the air filter retaining means are configured to move from a first position when the door is closed in which the air filter substantially completely obstructs said at least one air passageway to move to a second position when the door is open such that the air filter no longer substantially completely obstructs said at least one air passageway.

Abstract: Solid pigment preparations containing the following ingredients as substantial components: (A) 60-85 wt. % of at least one organic pigment, (B) 0.1-15 wt.

Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar Citrus limon (L.) Brum.f. is provided which displays a substantially different time for initial fruit harvest than the standard ‘Primofiori’ cultivar (non-patented in the United States). The attractive juicy fruit of the new cultivar commonly is initially ready for harvest by about the end of March. This follows greatly the typical October initial harvest time for the ‘Primofiori’ cultivar. The new cultivar is a diploid, and displays a relatively dense spreading growth habit. The supply of the fresh fruit market for consumption, use in beverages, and in cooking is facilitated at an atypical season of the year by the new cultivar.
