00: The present invention discloses an improved method for expansion and activation of tumour-reactive lymphocytes, in particular CD4+ helper and/or CD8+ T-lymphocytes, which may be used for treating and/or preventing cancer. The method provides high numbers of tumour-reactive T-lymphocytes within a short time span and the possibility of directing development of tumour-reactive CD4+ helper and/or CD8+ T-lymphocytes towards specific subpopulations. The method comprises a first phase of stimulating tumour-reactive CD4+ T helper and/or CD8+ T-lymphocytes with tumour-derived antigen together with at least one substance having agonistic activity towards the IL-2 receptor to promote survival of tumour-reactive CD4+ T helper and/or CD8+ T-lymphocytes; and a second phase of activating and promoting growth of tumour-reactive CD4+ T helper and/or CD8+ T-lymphocytes, wherein the second phase is initiated when the CD25 cell surface marker (or IL-2R marker) is down-regulated on CD4+ T helper and/or CD8+ T-lymphocytes.

process which utilizes biomass as a filtering means to remove nitrates and other organic and inorganic contaminants from water reservoirs and from domestic and/or industrial effluents, in which a step of adsorption is followed by a step of biological degradation by anaerobic digestion of micro organisms of the types Pse?donomas SP (Azobacter, Azotomas, Nitrosomonas, Nitrosococus, Nitrobacter, and Rhixobium). According to the invention, the addition of about 200 - 300 ppm of sodium acetate to the solution fed to the reactor, while maintaining a relation of 2:1 C:N, provides an efficiency increase of 80% to 98% regarding the removal of nitrates as well as organic and inorganic soluble matter from the water.

The driver connection comprises at least two coupling pairs which are separate from one another and are disposed eccentrically relative to the central axis (8). Each coupling pair is formed by interlocking coupling elements, namely a receiving pocket (20) and a driver pin (18). The coupling elements are implemented such that upon joining of the borer head (4) and the borer body (6), they are centered to one another and oriented aligned via the coupling elements. The coupling elements (18, 20) have an asymmetrical cross-sectional area for this purpose and widen with increasing distance to the central axis (8) for good torque transmission. Through said design, a reliable transmission of even high torques is achieved in comparison to the solution known from the prior art with lower strains of the borer body (6) in the area of the driver connection. Simultaneously, an automatic centering of the two tool parts to one another is performed by the special design.

The major axis of each colored region converges towards a common focal region on the longitudinal centerline of the absorbent article. The purpose of the colored regions arranged as described herein is to create the visual impression of depth, e.g. that the absorbent article is thick enough to deliver excellent absorption performance. Designers can provide for high absorbent capacity by employing advanced absorbent materials that are thin yet still are able to absorb a large quantity of fluid. By creating the visual impression of depth, designers of absorbent articles may provide to consumers absorbent articles that use less material, that will thus be less expensive, while they still appear to be thick.

When created, security measures, and access controls are selected. Highly sensitive data can be extracted and substituted with creator label and/or functional representation. Datato-data reasoning and analysis can be performed. The processing method comprises autonomous monitoring for a state change and analyzing the current user to determine if the instantiation should exist. If affirmed, the cognition engine automatically configures the computational environment in which it resides. If denied, environmental behavior is further analyzed for security problems or an erroneous situation. If detected, the creator is alerted and provided with incident information enabling remote creator control of the data. Cognitive data can decide to self-destruct mitigating risk of undesirable instantiations. Intelligent Agents, a comprehensive data structure, and intelligent document means are leveraged for implementation.

layers with a base layer (BL) and one or more enhancement layers (EL). Packets that comprise variable length coded data typically provide padding bits, which can be used for adding checksum information. The checksum information refers to both, the decoded base layer and decoded enhancement layer packet data, and is used for detecting synchronization loss between the layers. Though the packets provide different individual amounts of padding bits, this variable amount of bits per packet is sufficient for adding checksum information for synchronization related purposes. This allows e.g. out-of-sync detection even if the enhancement layer encoding provides no overhead information for synchronization, in particular no packet headers and no packet synchronization words.

In one embodiment, a cam-and-bearing arrangement is used to permit the magnetic roll and shell each to rotate on its own independent axis. This provides the ability to adjust clearance, the line of contact, and the degree of contact between the magnetic roll and the shell. In another embodiment, a different arrangement provides the same capabilities. The system can be configured to drive a magnetic roll (72), which then drives the shell (18), or it can be configured to drive the shell (18), which then drives the magnetic roll (72).

In a default state, a shuttle valve is pressure balanced and couples water from the mains supply to the plumbing system via mains inlet port and outlet port, and in another state the shuttle valve is pressure unbalanced and moved so that auxiliary water is coupled to the plumbing system via an auxiliary inlet port and the outlet port of the shuttle valve. Water is drawn from an auxiliary tank and coupled to the plumbing system when two conditions exist, namely when water is demanded, as sensed by flow sensor, and when water is available from the auxiliary supply, as sensed by float system. Water pressure at the auxiliary inlet port causes the shuttle to move from the default state and couple water from the auxiliary inlet port to the outlet port and thus to the plumbing system. When either of the two conditions are not met, the shuttle valve remains in the default state and couples mains water from the mains inlet port to the outlet port and thus to the plumbing system.

The intermediate electrodes, preferably made in the form of bars or cylinders, are arranged between the main electrodes so that said intermediate electrodes are mutually shifted along the longitudinal axis of the insulating body or along a spiral line. Such design makes it possible to form a discharge channel between the adjecent electrodes. Furthermore, said electrodes are located inside the insulating body and are separated from the surface of the body by an insulation layer. Discharge chambers formed as cavities or through bores opened to the surface of the insulating body are arranged between the pairs of the adjacent electrodes. Dimensions of the chambers are selected such that a discharge is easily blown out from the chambers to the surface of the insulating body, thereby increasing the efficiency of the discharge current quenching. In the preferred embodiments, the arrester is provided with an additional electrode for reducing a flashover voltage. Various embodiments of a power transmission line using the arrester of the invention are also disclosed.
