  • Patent number: 10751643
    Abstract: The invention relates to a fluid distributor (9, 10) for a column (1) comprising at least one cell (2) containing a bed of particles (3), the fluid distributor (9, 10) comprising: —a floor (11, 21) comprising at least one injection point (15, 25) providing a fluidic connection on either side thereof; —a layer of a resistive medium (12, 22) fixed on one face of the floor (11, 21), the resistive medium being permeable to the fluid; —a spacing device (13, 23) inserted between the floor (11, 21) and the layer of resistive medium (12, 22) and maintaining a space for the circulation of the fluid between the floor (11, 21) and the layer of resistive medium (12, 22). The invention also relates to a column, in particular a chromatography column, provided with this fluid distributor.

  • Publication number: 20170173495
    Abstract: A read circuit for an electrical signal produced by a POSFET device is disclosed which comprises a transconductance amplifier (4) connected at its inverting input to the output of the POSFET device (1), at least one neuron (8a, 8b) connected to the output of said transconductance amplifier, said amplifier being adapted to receive a signal from the POSFET device representative of a force or pressure exerted on it and to produce at its output at least one current signal (I0?, I0+) representative of such force or pressure, the at least one neuron being adapted to receive said current signal and to produce an output signal (12a, 12b) being a pulse train with frequency proportional to said current signal.
