This invention provides protection against an electricity leak and prevents error in reverse wiring. Also, when the ground fault circuit interrupter has come to the end of its life and its functions fail, it can set off an alarm prompt signal, reminding the user to replace the interrupter in a prompt manner; when a certain part or accessory of the ground fault circuit interrupter fails, especially when the primary electromagnetic coil cannot work in a normal manner, the power output of the interrupter may be cut off through the secondary electromagnetic coil; or the test button may be pressed to mechanically cut off the power output of the interrupter. This invention has powerful applications, with good safe guard and is safe to use, thus effectively ensuring the personal safety of the user as well as the safety of the appliances.

A plasma oil-free ignition system in oxygen enriched environment comprises a plasma generator and a burner. The plasma oil-free ignition system comprises a sleeve group coaxially arranged with the burner, and the sleeve group comprises multiple coaxially sleeved sleeves. Annular spaces are formed between adjacent sleeves and between the sleeves and the burner. Oxygen ducts are arranged on the sleeves, and oxygen ducts are arranged on the burner. Plasmas jetted by the plasma generators form a local high temperature zone filled with high temperature plasma and pulverized coal air flow. A certain amount of oxygen is fed to the burner through the oxygen duct therein to form local oxygen enriched zones in the annular spaces and the subsequent adjacent spaces through which air flows, thus realizing oxygen enriched combustion of volatile matters or coke or mixture thereof, and combustion the pulverized coal air flow more intensely to release more heat so as to ignite the primary air pulverized coal air flow quickly and burn the pulverized coal air flow stably. The invention has simple structure, is applicable to different coal types, especially applicable to the plasma oil-free ignition system in oxygen enriched environment of coal types with low volatile matters.

A binding machine includes a tightening mechanism adapted to tension a belt and a limiting mechanism adapted to limit tensioning of the belt. The tightening mechanism includes, for example, a ratchet and a pawl coupled to a body of the tightening mechanism. A handle is adapted to rotate the ratchet in a first direction in response to a first force applied to the handle. The pawl is adapted to prevent the ratchet from returning in a second direction when the first force is released. A spring mechanism allows the handle to indicate when a second force opposing the first force achieves an established magnitude.

The present invention is directed to a method of modulating (e.g., inducing, inhibiting) activation of a double stranded RNA (dsRNA) signaling pathway, such as the dsRNA signaling pathway that accompanies RNA interference (RNAi) of a target RNA sequence, in a cell, comprising introducing into the cell small interfering RNA (siRNA) that degrades the target RNA sequence, and maintaining the cell under conditions in which RNAi of the target RNA sequence occurs and activation of the dsRNA signaling pathway is modulated in the cell.

Newly discovered structural characteristic of the gp120 V3 loop have resulted in a “rule” or algorithm, that is used in a method for determining whether a subject is infected with HIV-1 virus that expresses selectivity for CXCR4 or CCR5 chemokine receptors. A positively charged surface patch defined by V3 loop residues 11 and 24 or 25 at the base of the β-strands in the V3 loop and the homologous β2-β3 chemokine hairpin is responsible for CXCR4 receptor selection. Thus a method for detecting the presence of HIV-1 virus that is selective for X4-co-receptors in a subject infected with HIV-1 or suspected of being infected, from the amino acid sequence of at least a part of the HIV-1 gp120 V3 region peptide that includes residues 11, 24 and 25, or from the nucleotide sequence of a nucleic acid encoding said V3 region peptide, is disclosed.
