  • Publication number: 20050086122
    Abstract: An electronic requisition processing method and system are disclosed. The method comprises the steps of preparing an electronic requisition including a requisition proposal; establishing an electronic list of approvers for the requisition; and at defined times, electronically recalculating the list. Preferably, this list is recalculated after each of at least some of the approvers act on the requisition; and the list is recalculated according to a given set of rules. Also, in the preferred system, the approval process is synchronous, whereby upon submission of the requisition, the requisition is immediately available for approval. Additionally, preferably, when each approver approves, the list is dynamically recalculated to take into account the availability of approvers further down in the list.

  • Patent number: 4117112
    Abstract: The present invention encompasses a vaccine for the prevention of disease associated with feline leukemia virus which comprises an effective amount of an adjuvant and about 10.sup.5 -10.sup.7 feline lymphoblastoid cells chronically infected with feline leukemia virus and having viral associated antigen on their surface wherein the virus and cells are inactivated by chemical or physical means without destroying immunogenicity.

  • Patent number: 4098073
    Abstract: Fluid flow diffuser has a first divergent duct connected by a sudden enlargement of flow area to a second divergent duct. The enlargement is defined by a fence situated downstream of the downstream end of the first duct. The top of the fence is on a flow perimeter intermediate between the downstream end of the first duct and the upstream end of the second duct, the latter end being defined by the bottom of the fence. An opening defined by the downstream end of the first duct and by the top of the fence gives access to a chamber connected to a pressure less than that at latter downstream end thereby to generate a vortex having a surface bridging the opening and assisting transition of flow from the first duct to the top of the fence. A second vortex formed immediately downstream of the fence assists transition of flow from the top of the fence to the surface of the second duct. The first duct has a rate of divergence low enough to avoid boundary separation.
