Water-based formulations comprising an indicating composition dispersed in water are described. The water-based indicating compositions include an organic Bi(III) compound, a sulfur source, a carbonate salt, and strontium hydroxide. Formulations further including a resin and/or an acidic additive are also described.

A soil-based coupon having an electronically readable verification code printed thereon is used for verification of soil removal by a cleaning process. The coupon includes a soil overlay covering the verification code. The verification code is at least partially revealed by removal of all or part of the soil overlay during the cleaning process. If the data encoded in the verification code can be correctly decoded after completion of the cleaning process, the cleaning process can be verified. The soil overlay can be designed to match the application. The coupons may be used in a cleaning process verification procedure in which one or more computing devices analyze images of the verification codes to determine whether or not cleaning processes can be verified.

Device for dispensing a pulverulent product comprising a reservoir unit (100) connected on the one hand, to an air expulsion system (200) and on the other hand to a dispensing head (300) provided with a dispensing orifice (310), said reservoir unit (100) comprising a reservoir (110) having substantially the form of a hollow cylinder, with a distal opening (111), a proximal opening (112), and a metering passage (113) connecting said distal and proximal openings (111, 112), a one-way valve (115) being positioned between said metering passage (113) and said distal opening (111), said proximal opening (112) of said reservoir (110) forming a filling cone which tapers towards said metering passage (113) to facilitate filling of said metering passage (113) with a dose of powder.

The present disclosure relates to a laundry dryer control method comprising: a sterilizing and drying step of increasing the internal temperature of a cabinet for sterilization; a steam-washing step of supplying steam into a drum, in order to sterilize the drum, after the sterilizing and drying step; and a blowing step of circulating the air inside the drum after the steam-washing step, and thus the temperature of the drum is controlled so as to be greater than or equal to a reference temperature at which sterilization is performed so that the drum is sterilized.

The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling a laundry dryer, the method comprising: a steam supplying step for supplying steam to a heat exchange unit; a cleaning step for controlling a cleaning unit after the steam supplying step, and thereby spraying cleaning water to the heat exchange unit according to preset spraying criteria; and a drying step for drying the heat exchange unit after the cleaning step. The present invention has the effect of eliminating and sterilizing foreign substances, microorganisms, and the like present in the heat exchange unit.

A surgical instrument is disclosed including a transducer configured to provide vibrations along a longitudinal axis, an end effector operably coupled to the transducer, and a stationary lower jaw extending parallel to the end effector. The end effector extends along the longitudinal axis. The end effector comprises a blade. The stationary lower jaw comprises a clamp face positioned distal to the blade. The end effector is movable relative to the stationary lower jaw to drive the blade distally towards the clamp face. The end effector comprises a hollow lumen. The end effector further comprises at least one member extended across a portion of the hollow lumen.
