Abstract: A pharmaceutical vial, container assembly, system and method. The vial can include a hollow body, a first passage, a second passage, a first temporary closure sealing the first passage, and a second temporary closure sealing the second passage. A diluent container can include a first connector to connect the diluent container and vial in fluid communication for mixing an active pharmaceutical ingredient with a diluent. An infusion set can include a second connector to connect the infusion set and vial in fluid communication, and a delivery device. The method can include the steps of connecting the diluent container to the first temporary closure of the vial, transferring a diluent from the diluent container into the vial, reconstituting an active pharmaceutical ingredient with the diluent to form a solution, connecting the delivery device to the second temporary closure, and administering the solution through the delivery device into a patient.

Abstract: Disclosed is a heating device comprising a heating resistor, and a heat sink thermally coupled to the heating resistor, wherein the heat sink comprises corrugated fins that are skived fins integral to the heat sink. Also disclosed is a method for producing a heating rod.

Abstract: Disclosed is a heating device comprising a plate-shaped ceramic PTC resistor having a thickness, a front side, a back side and narrow sides, wherein the distance from the front side to the back side equals the thickness, and a first contact element and a second contact element, which are electrically contacting the PTC resistor. The PTC resistor is electrically contacted by the contact elements on opposite narrow sides.

Abstract: Disclosed is a heating rod comprising a ceramic heating element, a strip shaped contact sheet, and a housing in which the heating element and the contact sheet are arranged. The contact sheet is coated with nickel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of diquat bromide as a root control agent. It is based, at least in part, on the results of green house testing in which application of diquat bromide as a dense foam to tree roots resulted in the destruction of the test roots without causing damage to the upper portion of the trees. Without being bound to any particular theory, it is believed that by applying diquat bromide to produce a high local concentration on the target root, the inactivating effects of local organic substances are overcome, and the diquat bromide kills root tissue by its dessicating activity. The inactivation of diquat bromide by organic materials, under these circumstances, becomes an advantage, as it prevents toxic levels of diquat bromide from traveling downstream from the point of application.
