Abstract: A cooled electronic module and method of fabrication are provided employing a cooling apparatus for removing heat from one or more electronic devices disposed on a substrate. The cooling apparatus includes a supply manifold structure having a plurality of inlet orifices for injecting coolant onto a surface to be cooled, and a return manifold structure. The return manifold structure, which is fabricated of a thermally conductive material, has a base surface sealed to the surface to be cooled along a periphery thereof employing a thermally conductive, coolant-tight seal. The return manifold structure provides at least one return passageway for exhausting coolant after impinging on the surface to be cooled, wherein coolant exhausting through the at least one passageway cools the return manifold structure, thereby facilitating further cooling of the surface to be cooled in a region where the base surface is sealed to the surface to be cooled.

Abstract: A process is described for the preparation f electrostatically-linked, aliphatic- or alicyclic-substituted anionic or cationic polysaccharide gels from readily available macroporous ionic polysaccharide chromatographic media, such as diethylaminoethyl (DEAE), quaternary aminoethyl (QAE) and sulfopropyl (SP) substituted polysaccharide gels. These novel gels are used for the isolation, recovery and purification of non-polar extractives using one or more extracting solvents from the group of lower alcohols, ketones, and water. The non-polar extractives may be alk(n)lyresorcinols, steroid, triterpenoid, cardiac glycosides and saponins, steryl ferulates and other phenolic acid conjugates, flavonoids, lipids, alcohol-soluble antimicrobials, prolamines or other alcohol-soluble proteolipid complexes.
