Abstract: The present invention relates to modified glass fiber membranes which exhibit sufficient hydrophilicity and sufficient electropositivity to bind DNA from a suspension containing DNA and permit elution of the DNA from the membrane. Generally, the hydrophilic and electropositive characteristics are expressed at the surface of the modified glass fiber membrane. Preferred modified glass fiber membranes of the present invention include glass fiber membranes that have been modified by treatment with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), BCl₃, SiCl₄, NaOH, F⁻, AlCl₃ alone or in combination, with or without water. The modified glass fiber membranes of the present invention are particularly useful in processes for purification of DNA from other cellular components. In these processes, a suspension of cellular components is placed in contact with the modified glass fiber membrane, the modified glass fiber membrane is washed to remove all cellular components other than DNA which are bound to the membrane, and the bound DNA is eluted from the membrane.

Abstract: An original or a photosensitive film is held by a sheet holder and the sheet holder is fixed to the drum of an image reading scanner or an image recording scanner by a row of hooks planted on the drum. A row of holes corresponding to the row of hooks are formed at each of the opposing ends of the sheet holder. A hook is composed of: a stem, a lever rotatably attached with a pin to the stem, and a plate urged upward by a spring against the bottom of the lever. A plane is formed at a side of the bottom of the lever. First the levers of the hooks are raised upright and the holes of an end of the sheet holder are engaged with the hooks. After surrounding the drum with the sheet holder, the holes at the other end of the sheet holder are engaged with the hooks and the levers are turned to a lying position, where the levers are stable because the plate is urged upward against the side plane of the lever.

Abstract: Vehicle tyres (12) each contain a sender (14) including a microprocessor (40), a radio transmitter (42), a pressure detector (48) and a magnetic switch (47) for sending a radio signals indicating sender ID, pressure data and change of switch state. An on-board receiver unit (18) having a microprocessor (24) evaluates the transmitted data and displays pressure condition information. A portable magnet is placed near each tyre (12), in turn, to operate the magnetic switches (47), resulting in a sequential transmission of sender ID codes which allows the receiver unit (18) to learn the tyre position of each sender. An inertia switch (44) in the tyre (12) triggers a radio transmission and the receiver unit (18) considers the absence of a transmission when expected as a failure and displays a service needed message. A remote portable sender (16) transmits signals for door unlocking or locking, boot opening and interior light control. The receiver unit (18) responds to the signals and issues commands to appropriate actuators.

Abstract: A neural network[42,10,250,500] for converting pixels represented in one color representation[41] to pixels of a second color representation[43]. The preferred embodiment of the neural network[42,10,250,500] utilizes an input layer that includes either a summing node or a product generating node. The neural network [42,10,250,500] may be implemented in analog circuitry[100] or as a simulation on a general purpose data processor[256]. The analog circuit implementation requires a relatively small number of nodes[13,15,100,512,514,518,520] and is less expensive than implementations based on general purpose data processors[256].

According to the invention, the substrate is comprised of a fibrous texture wherein the ratio ςr/ςc between the transverse electrical resistivity and the longitudinal electrical resistivity is at least equal to 1.3 and the ratio μr/μc between the transverse thermal conductivity and the longitudinal thermal conductivity is at the most equal to 0.9, and the substrate is situated entirely within the field produced by the inductor, the substrate and the inductor occupying positions which are fixed with respect to each other. Advantageously, the substrate is comprised of a needled fibrous structure having a volume proportion of fibers at least equal to 20 %.
