Abstract: A papermaking fabric includes a system of warp yarns interwoven with a system of weft yarns. The system of weft yarns includes groups of weft yarns, each of the groups being formed by a plurality of adjacent weft yarns weaving in the group side-by-side the same weave path with the warp yarns. A method of manufacturing such a papermaking fabric is also provided.

Abstract: A method and device to insure that a particular dispensing package (18) can only be engaged into an appropriate dispensing location (14). Specifically, the package and the dispenser have mating concentric rings (24, 30) (or portions thereof) to prevent engagement and dispensing of an inappropriate product. In one embodiment, the package (18) is provided with one or more concentric ring projections (24) (or portions thereof) and the dispenser (10) is provided with one or more matching concentric ring recesses (30). The projections and the recesses have similar diameters to define a mating set. In some embodiments, the concentric ring projections are placed on a closure (20), such as a cap, of the package. In alternative embodiments, the projections are placed on the dispenser and the recesses are placed on the package.

Abstract: The incorporation of polyvalent metal ions into a silicate based interlayer in a laminated fire resistant glazing produced using a cast in place process provides an improvement in the properties of those glazings. The preferred metal ions are aluminium ions and zirconium ions. The preferred polyvalent metal compounds are those which are disclosed in EP 1206349 and WO 2004/014813.

Abstract: Computer implemented methods, and systems performing such methods for processing signal data from analytical operations and systems, and particularly in processing signal data from sequence-by-incorporation processes to identify nucleotide sequences of template nucleic acids and larger nucleic acid molecules, e.g., genomes or fragments thereof.

Abstract: A clip including two plates that preferably are substantially parallel, a spacer that connects the plates and that holds the plates apart by a gap, and at least one part of a hook-and-loop fastener attached to at least one of the plates opposite the other of the plates. Also, a clip including a plate, one or more structures for fastening the plate to an object, and at least one part of a hook-and-loop fastener attached to the plate. In addition, a method of using such clips.

Abstract: The present invention relates to vaccines, in particular, to an attenuated gram-negative cell comprising the SPI2 gene locus, wherein at least one gene of the SPI2 locus is inactivated, wherein said inactivation results in an attenuation/reduction of virulence compared to the wild type of said cell, and to a carrier for the presentation of an antigen to a host, which carrier is said attenuated gram-negative cell, wherein said cell comprises at least one heterologous nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleic acid sequence coding for said antigen, wherein said cell is capable of expressing said nucleic acid molecule or capable of causing the expression of said nucleic acid molecule in a target cell.

Abstract: A metering and dispensing closure for a container wherein two rotatable disks rotate in conjunction with a stationary cap member to afford accurate measuring of a powder material and dispensing of it. The disks and the container cap afford a consistent measuring of the powder material, as well as provide a variety of drive members which can be utilized with the dispensing closure.

Abstract: An embodiment generally relates to a method of processing signals. The method includes providing for a plurality of filters, where each filter is configured to process an associated dye. The method also includes determining a residual error for at least one filter during dye amplification and modifying the at least one filter based on the residual error. The method further includes filtering subsequent signals associated with the modified at least one filter.
