Abstract: Disclosed herein are efficient mechanical fuse devices that are capable of functioning at high current levels. These devices comprise mechanical features configured such that the fuse devices have a non-triggered state, which allows current to flow through the device, and a triggered state, which does not allow current to flow through the device. In some embodiments, the devices are configured such that a certain pre-determined current level flowing through the device will generate a sufficient electromagnetic field to cause the mechanical elements to transition the fuse device into the triggered state and thus interrupt a connected electrical circuit, device or system. In some embodiments, these devices can also comprise hermetically sealed components. In some embodiments, the fuse devices can comprise pyrotechnic features.

Abstract: A method of treating a surface so that the antimicrobial activity of water-soluble antimicrobial agents is retained at the surface despite repeated washing with water is described. The method uses a dispersion of a lipidated polyanionic molecule and one or more antimicrobial agents in an aqueous carrier such as water. The treatment of the surface of the fabric of adhesive bandages and stainless steel is demonstrated using a combination of crystal violet and silver nitrate as the antimicrobial agents. The method has application in the treatment of such surfaces to control microbial growth and the development of biofilms.

Abstract: A pump cooling system may include a cooling body configured to be fitted to a pump housing to receive heat from the pump housing via a heat conducting path between the cooling body and pump housing. The cooling body may have a passage through which, in use, a cooling fluid is passed to conduct heat away from the cooling body. The pump cooling system includes a cooling control mechanism configured to provide a gap in the heat conducting path at pump operating temperatures below a predefined temperature so heat conduction from the pump housing to the cooling body is interrupted.
