Abstract: A differential carrier and ring gear assembly for a vehicle is provided. The assembly comprises a differential carrier, a ring gear, and a weld nugget. The differential carrier comprises an outer surface including a first contact face having a weld end extending to a root end. The first contact face has a first slot formed on a first radial portion thereof. The ring gear is disposed about the differential carrier and comprises an inner side having an inner surface. The inner side has a stop flange abutting the root end. The inner surface comprises a second contact face disposed on the first contact face such that the root end is in abutment with the second end. The first and second hollow channels define a pocket therebetween and the first slot defines a first vent hole for venting. The weld nugget is disposed between the first and second contact faces.

Abstract: A delivery system for delivering a enamel regeneration system to the surfaces of teeth the delivery system comprising a delivery device and a separate activator composition, the delivery device comprising; a strip of an orally acceptable flexible material, having a strip surface capable of being applied to a tooth surface, the strip having components of an enamel regeneration system deposited upon the strip surface thereof, and/or impregnated into its structure and the activator system comprising water.

Abstract: An oral care kit comprising: i) an application device ii) first non-aqueous composition comprising a whitening component and a water insoluble and/or slightly soluble calcium source; and (iii) a second composition comprising a phosphate source in which the second composition is stored separately from the first composition prior to usage of the product; and in which the first and second compositions are adapted to be applied sequentially to the application device, the device then being placed on the surface 15 of the teeth for sustained contact.

Abstract: A process for manufacturing detergent particles comprising the steps of: a) forming a liquid surfactant blend comprising a major amount of surfactant and a minor amount of water, the surfactant part consisting of at least 51 wt % linear alkylbenzene sulfonate and at least one co-surfactant, the surfactant blend consisting of at most 20 wt % nonionic surfactant; b) drying the liquid surfactant blend of step (a) in an evaporator or drier to a moisture content of at most 2 wt % and cooling the output from the evaporator or dryer; c) feeding the cooled material, which output comprises at least 93 wt % surfactant blend with a major part of LAS, to an extruder, optionally along with less than 10 wt % of other materials such as perfume, fluorescer, and extruding the surfactant blend to form an extrudate while periodically cutting the extrudate to form hard detergent particles with a diameter across the extruder of greater than 2 mm and a thickness along the axis of the extruder of greater than 0.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of diagnostic and prognostic assays for a condition or event of a vascular system such as the cerebrovascular system. An assay is taught herein for monitoring progression of a condition or event of a vascular system such as the cerebrovascular system as well as determining the state or stage of the condition or event. The assay of the present disclosure is also useful in the stratification of a subject based on the stage or development of the condition or event.

Abstract: An agglomerated active with controlled release comprising a particulate solid active material and a binder characterised in that the binder comprises from 0.02 to 5% by weight of a polyvinyl alcohol, based on the total weight of the agglomerate. The binder system simultaneously provides the desired hardness and release characteristics while maintaining a high level of actives. The active may be a bleach activator such as Tetraacetylethylenediamine.A process for manufacturing the agglomerate comprises the steps of mixing a particulate solid active material and optionally a portion of polyvinyl alcohol and optionally also a co-binder and then adding an agglomerating solution which optionally contains polyvinyl alcohol binder while mixing and agglomerating and drying the agglomerates to obtain an agglomerate with average particle size in the range 1-2000 microns wherein the agglomerate comprises from 0.02 to 5% by weight based on the total weight of the agglomerate of polyvinyl alcohol.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for the live transport and storage of table fish, especially table shellfish, wherein the fish are confined in an assembly of compartments supplied with a flow of suitable water which, after its exit from the compartments, is purified, aerated and recycled to the compartments to provide a life support system. Embodiments are provided wherein each compartment is a tube, and contains a removable trough or tray, preferably subdivided by partitions to effect solitary confinement for e.g. lobsters. Specially preferred are lightweight embodiments for air transport, including the provision of disposable compartments.
