A whitened exine shell having a degree of whiteness (L*) of greater than 65 measured under D 65 illumination. The shell can be used as a delivery vehicle for an active substance, or as an antioxidant. It can be used in a method of surgery, therapy or diagnosis. The invention provides a formulation containing the whitened exine shell together with an active substance; and a method for preparing the shell by isolating an exine shell from a naturally occurring spore under treatment conditions which do not include aceto lysis, and treating the isolated shell or a precursor thereof with a bleaching composition.

METHOD OF OPERATING A FLUIDIC DEVICE AND A FLUIDIC DEVICE FOR USE IN THE METHOD
A method comprises introducing a fluid carrying mobile elements, such as particles (24), into a fluidic device. Simultaneously a mobile element receiving fluid and one or more further fluids are also introduced into the fluidic device. The fluids are passed through a chamber (12) in respective, parallel fluid streams (32, 34, 36, 38, 40). The fluid streams are arranged such that each fluid stream contacts at least another one of the fluid streams in the chamber (12). The dimensions of the chamber are such that the fluid streams undergo laminar flow and remain generally distinct from one another. A force is applied to the mobile elements (24) which causes the mobile elements to leave the fluid stream (32) of the mobile element carrying fluid, pass through the fluid stream(s) (34, 36, 38) of the further fluid(s) and enter into the fluid stream (40) of the mobile element receiving fluid. As the mobile elements pass through the fluid streams reactions can take place between species bound to the mobile elements and species carried in the fluid streams.

Antiviral macrocycle derivatives and metal complexes, incorporating bridged macrocycles
A speech valve (10) comprises a generally cylindrical body (12, 14, 16) and a closure member (62) which is slidably movable within the body (12, 14, 16) between a closed position and an open position. The valve body and the closure member (62) are formed of a rigid, smooth material which is resistant to the growth of biofilm, such as a ceramic. A particular suitable ceramic is partially stabilised zirconia. The valve body is provided with an outer sleeve (76) which is provided with radially outwardly extending annular flanges (82, 86), which are used to retain the speech valve in a fistula between the oesophagus and the trachea.
The present disclosure relates to catheters, for example a catheter which is adapted such that the user is able to determine whether it has been correctly positioned within 5 the subject. Also included in the present disclosure are means for detecting the position of the catheter and combinations of a catheter and processors for determining the positioning of the catheter. The present disclosure also relates to methods of determining the position of a catheter in, for example, a human or animal body.
The invention provides a cancer screening test, to identify patients having an increased likelihood of cancer, comprising the step of determining the presence or absence of members of a test group of tumour associated antigens in the blood of a patient. The test group comprises a plurality of tumour-associated antigens. Antigens of particular interest include Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-A (VEGF A); CEA125 (Carcinoembryonic antigen 125); Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA); CA15-3 (Cancer antigen 15-3); CA125 (Cancer Antigen 125); CYFRA21-1 (Cytokeratin-19 fragments); Soluble ectodomain of c- erbB2; CA27.29 (Cancer Antigen 27.29); IGF-I (Insulin-like growth factor-1); IGF-2 (Insulin-like growth factor-2); and IGFBP-3 (Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3). The invention also provides an antibody-based test kit to implement the screening method.
The invention relates to pharmaceutically useful agents that antagonize the activity of a calcium ion channel receptor and their use in the inhibition of receptor activation in the treatment of conditions that would benefit from said inhibition; and including screening assays to identify antagonists of receptor activation and other subject matter. The agent may be a pheniramine.
