Abstract: Dimethyl sulfone may be used in the treatment of heat stress in poultry by oral administration, wherein the dimethyl sulfone is administered to chronically heat stressed poultry. The poultry may be exposed to a temperature of more than 27° C., or at least 30° C., optionally for at least 5 hours a day. The poultry may be exposed to a relative air humidity of at least 40% on average. The dimethyl sulfone is administered to poultry in a starter, grower, and/or finisher phase.

Abstract: Compositions, in particular compacted compositions, contain at least one betaine salt and at least one feed additive; and can be used for providing the feed additive, in particular probiotics, to drinking water or rearing water.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for adjusting a sensor signal and a corresponding sensor system comprising a sensor for providing a sensor signal representative of a measure other than temperature, dynamic components of the sensor signal being dependent on temperature. In addition there is provided a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature. Dynamic components in the sensor signal are adjusted subject to the temperature sensed, and a compensated sensor signal is supplied. Such sensor system helps compensating for long response times of sensors.

Abstract: The humidity detector comprises a housing adapted to hold a humidity sensor towards the windscreen of a vehicle or any other type of window. A flexible printed circuit board is arranged between the humidity sensor and the windscreen and provides a connection between the humidity sensor and further circuitry of the detector. The humidity sensor is located under a cap, which is engaged by a glider member. A spring pushes the glider member towards the windscreen.

Abstract: An improved process for treating spent Kraft wood pulping liquors by coking the liquors after reducing the pH thereof with SO.sub.2 and recovering the sulfur contained in the resulting coke by contact with hydrogen preheated to temperatures in the range of 750.degree. to 2000.degree. F to produce H.sub.2 S. The H.sub.2 S and lime are added to the coker effluent to form new kraft cooking liquor.
