Abstract: Growth factors and/or angiogenic factors are administered in combination with dissociated cells to be transplanted, preferably in microspheres with the cells on or in a polymeric matrix, to enhance survival and proliferation of the transplanted cells. Examples demonstrate that epidermal growth factor (EGF) was incorporated into microspheres fabricated from a copolymer of lactic and glycolic acid using a double emulsion technique, the incorporated EGF was steadily released over one month in vitro, and it remained biologically active, as determined by its ability to stimulate DNA synthesis, division, and long-term survival of cultured hepatocytes. EGF-containing microspheres were mixed with a suspension of hepatocytes, seeded onto porous sponges, and implanted into the mesentery of two groups of Lewis rats, to demonstrate efficacy in vivo. Two weeks after implantation in PCS animals, devices which included EGF-containing microspheres showed a two-fold increase in the number of engrafted hepatocytes, as compared to implants which received blank microspheres.

Prior to treating the gas, the oxidation catalyst is subjected to an activation treatment which loads the active phase of the catalyst to provide maximum sulphurization of the metal of the catalyst. In an alternate embodiment, the oxidation of the H2S is performed below the dew point of the sulphur. In another embodiment, the oxidation is performed at a temperature above the dew point of sulphur and in particular between 200 DEG  C. and 500 DEG  C. Also disclosed is a catalyst for selectively oxidizing H2S to sulphur which comprises a catalytically active phase based on at least one transition metal such as indicated above in combination with a silicon carbide support.

Abstract: A system and a method for storage and communication of information between at least one first information containing terminal (10) and a second terminal (12), are disclosed. A random number is generated (266) within the first terminal (10) in response to receipt of a begin signal from the second terminal (12), and the random number is compared with a count incremented and maintained by a digital counter (264) within the first terminal (10). When the random number is equal (70) to the count, the first terminal (10) transmits (72) a request-to-transmit signal (RTT) to the second terminal (12). If the second terminal (12) responds with a first acknowledgment, the first terminal (10) then sends (80) an information-containing signal to the second terminal (12). If the information-containing signal is correctly received, the second terminal (12) responds by transmitting a second acknowledgment which is received by the first terminal (10). The storage and communication of information method disclosed may be employed in a supermarket checkout system, with the first information-containing terminals (10) comprising RFID tags. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for chemical vapor deposition using a very fine atomization or vaporization of a reagent containing liquid or liquid-like fluid near its supercritical temperature, where the resulting atomized or vaporized solution is entered into a flame or a plasma torch, and a powder is formed or a coating is deposited onto a substrate. The combustion flame can be stable from 10 torr to multiple atmospheres, and provides the energetic environment in which the reagent contained within the fluid can be reacted to form the desired powder or coating material on a substrate. The plasma torch likewise produces the required energy environment, but, unlike the flame, no oxidizer is needed so materials stable in only very low oxygen partial pressures can be formed. Using either the plasma torch or the combustion plasma, coatings can be deposited and powders formed in the open atmosphere without the necessity of a reaction chamber, but a chamber may be used for various reasons including process separation from the environment and pressure regulation.

Abstract: The present invention is related to nucleic acid sequences that can be used in the field of virus diagnostics, more specifically the diagnosis of infections with the AIDS causing Human Immuno-deficiency Virus (HIV). With the present invention nucleotide sequences are provided that can be used as primers and probes in the amplification and detection of HIV-1 nucleic acid. The oligonucleotide sequences provided with the present invention are located in the LTR part of the HIV viral genome. It has been found that, by using the sequences of the present invention in methods for the amplification and detection of nucleic acid a sensitive and specific detection of HIV-1 can be obtained. The benefit of the sequences of the present invention primarily resides in the fact that, with the aid of primers and probes comprising the sequences according to the invention the nucleic acid of all presently known subtypes of HIV-1 can be detected with high accuracy and sensitivity. So far no primer pairs or hybridization probes have been developed that would allow the detection of such a broad range of HIV-1 variants.  The oligonucleotide sequences according to the present invention are especially useful in methods for the amplification of nucleic acid.

Abstract: An optical fibre connector comprising a hollow cylindrical body 2 having a throughbore 3 with an inner surface 4. A hollow sleeve or carrier 6 in the form of a cylindrical tube having a throughbore 8 fits snugly within the hollow body throughbore 3. The sleeve 6 can receive and releasably retain a pair of optical fibre assemblies 11 which are to be optically coupled to one another by means of the connector. The sleeve 6 accommodates a plurality of discrete individual engagement means in the form of balls 10 in holes around its circumference. The balls 10 protrude through the holes in the sleeve into the throughbore 3, and are free to rotate as an optical fibre assembly moves past them. The optical fibre assemblies 11 are biassed against the balls 10 and thereby against the inner surface of the connector body by resilient biassing means in the form of spring arrangements 14. Each spring arrangement 14 comprises an elongate resilient strip 15 pivoted about its midpoint on a pivot 20. In this arrangement, as an optical fibre assembly 10 is inserted into the carrier 6, the pivoting action of the spring prevents the biassing force being applied by the spring on the assembly until a first 21 and second 22 end of the assembly are in contact with a distal 23 and proximal 24 end respectively of the spring arrangement. <IMAGE>

Abstract: There is provided a method for forming a water-soluble glass fibre or wool. The method comprises heating the glass composition above its melting point to produce a molten glass and then cooling the molten glass slowly to a pre-selected working temperature at which the fibres will be drawn. Suitable working temperature include those in a range of 400 to 1000  DEG C. The working temperature will usually be at least 200  DEG C lower than the temperature to which the molten glass is heated above its melting point and may be 50-300  DEG C above the Tg of the glass. Phosphorous pentoxide is suitable as a glass former and B203 may be present as an additive. Optionally the glass may release silver ions, e.g. by addition of silver orthophosphate during manufacture of the glass.
