Abstract: A liquid chromatographic system includes a column, a needle, a valve, a pump, and an analysis flow path. The valve sets the analysis flow path by switching between a first flow path through which an eluent flows from the valve to the column via the needle and a second flow path through which the eluent flows from the valve to the column not via the needle. The first flow path can be cleaned by drive of a first cleaning pump while the first flow path is set, and the second flow path can be cleaned by drive of the first cleaning pump while the second flow path is set.

Abstract: An orthotic insert for use within footwear, may include a support shell. The support shell may include a forward portion configured to underlie and support a plantar surface of a metatarsal head area of a foot of a user and a rear portion configured to underlie and support a plantar surface of a heel of the foot of the user. The rear portion may include a heel post to provide frontal plane stabilization to the foot of the user during use. The heel post may define a perimeter structure having a hexagonal or other geometric shape that extends in a downward direction from a bottom surface of the support shell and terminates in a substantially planar footwear engagement surface.

Abstract: The present invention provides a pulp product (e.g., paper) comprising cellulose and nanocellulose, wherein the nanocellulose is derived from the cellulose in a mechanical and/or chemical step that is separate from the main pulping process. The pulping process may be thermomechanical pulping or hydrothermal-mechanical pulping, for example. The pulp product is stronger and smoother with the presence of the nanocellulose. The nanocellulose further can function as a retention aid, for a step of forming the pulp product (e.g., in a paper machine). Other embodiments provide a corrugated medium pulp composition comprising cellulose pulp and nanocellulose, wherein the nanocellulose includes cellulose nanofibrils and/or cellulose nanocrystals and the nanocellulose may be hydrophobic. The nanocellulose improves the strength properties of the corrugated medium. In some embodiments, the cellulose pulp is a GreenBox+® pulp and the nanocellulose is derived from the AVAP® process.

Abstract: A pocket hole jig system is formed of a plurality of jig segments, wherein each jig segment includes a main body having a drill guide and a lock feature that protrudes outward on a first side of the main body and a recess that protrudes inward on a second side of the main body. The system also includes one or more spacers that have a main body of varying width and a lock feature that protrudes outward on a first side of the main body and a recess that protrudes inward on a second side of the main body. Jig segments and spacers may be connected together by inserting the lock feature of a jig segment or spacer into the recess of an adjacent jig segment or spacer. In one arrangement opposing jig segments and/or spacers lock together with a combination of rotational movement as well as sliding movement.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of verifying the health of a liquid level detection device, preferably a vibrating fork level switch, while the device remains in situ. The method includes, independently of the device, verifying if the fork tines are fully wet or fully dry. This step can be carried out by a further, independent, level measuring apparatus.
