Abstract: Surgical implant for treating fractures of long bones, notably of the femur, having an intramedullary section (52) of elongated shape, adapted for being inserted into the medullary cavity (37), an extramedullary section (56) substantially parallel to the intramedullary section (52), a deformable curved loop (57) connecting the intramedullary section (52) to the extramedullary section (56), an inclined screw (61) traversing said intramedullary section (52) and said extramedullary section (56). By deforming the loop (57), a continuous adjustment of the angle (?) of the cephalic screw (61) and thus an optimal adaptation of the implant to the individual anatomy can be achieved. Thanks to its geometry, this implant induces a protection of the greater trochanter and limits the mechanical loads between the cephalic screw (61) and the rest of the implant.

Abstract: A method for liquefying and saccharifying starch quickly includes the steps of: irradiating starch with 0.25×106˜1.5×106 Gy 60Co-? rays or electron accelerator, putting the irradiated starch into a fermenting tank and adding cold water, stirring mechanically to forma solution, adding a little amount of starch saccharifying enzyme to saccharifying the starch under acid condition.
Abstract: The feather-based padding product has a coherent form due to the presence of a structure in the form of a three-dimensional network; this network consists of thermoplastic fibres (2) mutually bound, which trap the feathers. These fibres (2) are first mixed with the feathers, then, with appropriate thermal treatment, these fibres are bonded at their contact points (5). The padding product is thus in the form of a web and it is conditioned as a roll or in the form of slabs.
