An abrasive sawing or polishing substrate includes a substrate, a binder Ccovering at least a portion of the substrate, and abrasive particles having an at least partial coating, C. The abrasive sawing or polishing substrate also includes a coating Ccoating binder Cand the abrasive particles coated with Cand at least one light-emitting compound. The abrasive particles coated with Care in contact with binder Cand with coating C

A method for observing biological species on a culture medium contained in a container having at least one translucent face, the method including the steps of: a) directing a light beam onto one portion of the translucent face, so as to define at least one illuminated region and at least one non-illuminated region of the face; and b) acquiring an image of a portion of the surface of the culture medium illuminated by the light beam, the acquisition being carried out through at least one of the non-illuminated regions of the translucent face and along an optical acquisition axis forming a non-zero angle (a) with the direction of propagation of the light beam.

A device for a bimodal diagnostic probe with optical and ultrasonic imaging, the probe including a main body supporting an ultrasonic transducer at its front end. The device includes a shell, an illumination mechanism mounted on a front end of the shell to light outside of the shell, and a collection or detection mechanism mounted on the front end of the shell to collect or detect an optical signal produced outside the shell. The shell includes an attachment mechanism to reversibly assemble it around the main body of the probe, with the illumination mechanism and the collection or detection mechanism mounted on the shell.

A coupling device for an optical fiber used in optical tomography examination of a medium includes a mass of diffusing material for a wavelength guided by the optical fiber. This mass includes a bearing surface to be applied against the surface of the medium. At least one housing is provided in the mass to receive the end of the optical fiber.

In the field of dual-mode medical probes, a simple device perfectly meets the double need for dual-modality and sterilization, and provides a sterile, disposable, or sterilizable protective membrane, also called a 'glove' or 'sock', equipped with optical fibers. This protective membrane can be slipped onto an ultrasound probe. It therefore ensures both the dual-mode functionality and perfect sterilization of the probe, this being the desired effect. The protective membrane is easy to produce and easy to use.
