Process for the electrolysis of alkali metal chloride solutions

Abstract of the Disclosure A process is described for electrolyzing aqueous alkali metal chloride solutions in a membrane cell which contains an anode chamber with the anode and a cathode chamber with the cathode, the two chambers being separated from one another by a cation exchanger membrane. The cathode is porous and foil-like. The cathode and cation exchanger membrane form the cathode chamber which is filled with catholyte and the cathode and cell wall form a gas space. Water is fed into the cathode chamber and alkali metal hydroxide solution is withdrawn from it, hydrogen is withdrawn from the cathode chamber and gas space, and aqueous alkali metal chloride solution is fed into the anode chamber and gaseous chlorine, together with depleted alkali metal chloride solution, is withdrawn from it. A direct voltage which is at least the same as the decomposition voltage is applied to the cathode and anode. A higher pressure is established in the cathode chamber than in the gas space.

Lateral flow device for diagnosing microbial infections

Fungal infections are difficult to diagnose. The most common filamentous fungal infection, aspergillosis, carries with it a high mortality. Culture of the organism is difficult and obtaining samples, e.g., though a lung biopsy, sometimes causes morbidity. Biomarkers that indicate ‘early’ infection in it development are sought after. One such biomarker is detection of galactomannan (GM), a polysaccharide that is attached to hyphal cell walls and secreted during growth of the organism. Galactomannan is excreted in urine. Disclosed herein is a lateral flow assay comprising monoclonal antibodies that recognize specific residues of Aspergillus fumigates for detecting GM in urine samples to provide a point-of-care detection device to allow for frequent screening and early diagnosis in patients at high risk for infection.

Production of silver electrode

Metallic silver is deposited from a silver salt solution onto a support by reduction, and thus a catalytically active electrode material for oxygen-consuming electrodes is obtained. For this purpose, (a) an aqueous dispersion of a hydrophobic polymer, in particular a dispersion of PTFE, (b) a silver salt solution and (c) reducing agent for silver ions are mixed. During this, a pH at which the dispersion employed is stable, and the silver salt is reduced, should be maintained.

Systems and methods for identifying morphological patterns in tissue samples

A discrete attribute value dataset is obtained that is associated with a plurality of probe spots each assigned a different probe spot barcode. The dataset comprises spatial projections, each comprising images of a biological sample. Each image includes a corresponding plurality of discrete attribute values for the probe spots. Each such value is associated with a probe spot in the plurality of probes spots based on the probe spot barcodes. The dataset is clustered using the discrete attribute values, or dimension reduction components thereof, for a plurality of loci at each respective probe spot across the images of the projections thereby assigning each probe spot to a cluster in a plurality of clusters. Morphological patterns are identified from the spatial arrangement of the probe spots in the various clusters.
