  • Transformer faults and protection systems

  • Abstract Although safety of property and persons, respect for the environment and improvement of operating conditions have always formed part of the aims of power network operators, these matters are gaining in importance daily as the Century draws to a close, given that the basic functions have been acquired. As the ultimate element in the electricity supply process chain, the power distribution transformer is one of the most widespread items of equipment and, being located nearest to the user, it is therefore one of the most sensitive. Conse...

  • Abstract Cast-resin power transformers have been widely used for a long time. These transformers have the advantage of easy installation and improved fire behaviour in case of class F1. Climatic and environmental classification tests E2 and C2 show these transformers have a good behaviour under severe operating conditions. Experience shows their good reliability. To improve even more this reliability during operation, an inspection of the transformers may be carried out: on-site partial discharges measurements are a mean to undertake this insp...

  • Abstract Energy efficiency serves three long term European goals on the agenda of the European Commission: the competitiveness of the European Industry, the environmental protection and the security of supply. In its 2005 Green Paper, the European Commission identified several actions for various industrial sectors in order to improve energy efficiency. In the electricity industry, the European Commission encourages the distribution network operators to innovate in the design and the operation of their networks in order to decrease their techn...

  • When activated, lymphocytes secrete glycoproteins related to particular surface proteins, including soluble forms of the interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) and of the surface proteins CD4 (sCD4) and CD8 (sCD8). We evaluated the release of these glycoproteins in order to assess the activation of the cellular immune system during the course of acute pancreatitis. Thirty-five patients with acute pancreatitis (22 M, 13 F, mean age 64 years, range 16-97) were studied. The diagnosis was based on typical abdominal pain associated with a twofold increase ...

  • Plasma levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R), soluble CD8 (sCD8) and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1) were determined by ELISA assays in about 100 patients with hairy cell leukemia (HCL), acute myelomonocytic leukemia (AMMoL), acute myelocytic leukemia (AML), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), prolymphocytic leukemia (PLL), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), adult T-cell leukemia (ATL), and mycosis fungoides (MF). Additionally, cultured AML, ALL, and CLL cells grown with and without 12-0-tetra-decanoyl-phorbol-1...

  • Tuberculosis is characterized by the presence of activated mononuclear cells both in the peripheral circulation and in pleural fluid. Expression and up-regulation of adhesion molecules is the basis of cell-cell adhesion in granuloma formation and in leukocyte migration to the inflammatory site. Soluble isoforms of adhesion molecules have been described, and their expression at high levels indicated an activated state. The purpose of this study was to evaluate levels of soluble adhesion molecules in serum and pleural fluid from patients with tub...

  • OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between serum levels of soluble Fas(sFas), soluble Fas li gand(sFasL), soluble IL-2 receptor(sIL-2R) and coronary heart disease (CHD). METHODS: With enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) tests, sFas, sFasL and sIL-2R were measured in the sera from 30 patients with CHD and 26 subjects without CHD as controls. RESTULTS: Mean level of sFas was significantly higher in patients with CHD than in controls [(1 583.41+/-174.46)ng/L compared with (1 374.55+/-142.42)ng/L, P

  • Mononuclear cell preparations from peripheral blood after mobilization with hematopoietic growth factors have been shown to induce accelerated neutrophil and platelet recovery as compared with that induced by autologous bone marrow transplantation after myeloablative chemotherapy. Because these mononuclear cell products contain many immunocompetent cells other than hematopoietic progenitors, these accessory cells might contribute to the rapid immunohematopoietic reconstitution. We have monitored the concentrations of soluble CD4 (sCD4), sCD8, a...

  • Active SLE is characterized by immune deposits and subsequent vascular inflammation in many organs. Expression and up-regulation of adhesion molecules is basic to migration of inflammatory cells into the tissues. Recently, soluble isoforms of these molecules have been described which might be an expression of their up-regulation in the tissues and, as such, of disease activity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether changes in levels of soluble adhesion molecules reflect disease activity. We analysed serial sera in a 6-month period p...

  • The serum levels of soluble interleukin-2 (sIL-2), sIL-2 receptors (sIL-2R), beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2M) and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) were measured by the ELISA technique in 129 breast cancer patients and 40 controls. The median serum levels of sIL2-R, beta 2M and sICAM-1 were significantly higher and sIL-2 significantly lower than controls. sIL-2R, sICAM-1 and beta 2M levels were significantly higher in patients with metastatic disease compared to patients on long-term follow-up with no active disease. Initial stu...

  • IL-6 mediates its pleiotropic functions through two membrane proteins, a ligand-binding molecule (IL-6 receptor, IL-6R) and a non-ligand-binding signal transducer (gp130). Starting with a previously isolated cDNA clone encoding human gp130, recombinant soluble gp130 (sgp130) lacking the transmembrane and cytoplasmic regions was expressed in COS7 cells or CHO cells. sgp130 could associate with a complex of IL-6 and soluble IL-6R (sIL-6R), also lacking transmembrane and cytoplasmic regions. This indicated that extracellular region of gp130 was re...
