Title: Capsular polysaccharide solubilisation and combination vaccines
Inventor: COSTANTINO PAOLO
IPC: A61K39/02
Filed: 2002-06-20
Granted: 2011-04-19
Abstract: Precipitated bacterial capsular polysaccharides can be efficiently re-solubilised using alcohols as solvents. The invention provides a process for purifying a bacterial capsular polysaccharide, comprising the steps of (a) precipitation of said polysaccharide, followed by (b) solubilisation of the precipitated polysaccharide using ethanol. CTAB can be used for step (a). The material obtained, preferably following hydrolysis and sizing, can be conjugated to a carrier protein and formulated as a vaccine. Also, in vaccines comprising saccharides from the serogroups A and C, the invention provides that the ratio (w/w) of MenA saccharide : MenC saccharide is >1.

Abstract: A device for rotating body windage loss reduction, capable of rotating a rotating body at a high peripheral speed in an environment at atmospheric pressure or close to atmospheric pressure while reducing fluid resistance loss at a low cost by making use of the conventional bearing technology, is implemented, thereby enhancing efficiency of an energy storage device such as, for example, a flywheel, and so forth. The device is provided with a rotating body held rotatably; and a covering rotating body installed on the outer side of the rotating body so as to enclose the same, held rotatably and coaxially with the rotating body. Further, optional plural numbers of the covering rotating bodies installed coaxially with the rotating body and covering the outer side of the device for rotating body windaqe loss reduction are provided on top of each other in sequence. Still further, bearing means are provided between the rotating body and the covering rotating body adjacent thereto or between the covering rotating bodies adjacent to each other, and bearings for the respective coverinq rotating bodies are disposed in series in relation to bearings for the rotating body. In addition, by filling up the interior of a case with hydrogen gas or helium gas, lower in density than air, windage loss canbe further reduced.

Abstract: A tone processing method and communications which reduce the probability of falsely detecting modem and facsimile communications that occur on a communications link. The link connections a calling endpoint (105) to an answering endpoint (110). In a preferred embodiment, when the answering endpoint (110) goes off-hook in response to receiving a call from the calling endpoint (105), an elapse of time is measured while monitoring the link. If a predetermined amount of time elapses without detecting at least one tone on the link, tone detection criteria is modified to reduce tone detection sensitivity, or to ignore tones all together. In another embodiment, the tone detection criteria is similarly modified if voice activity is detected on the link. In yet another embodiment, when tones and voice activity occur at different times during a call, at least one characteristic is modified to optimize the link for the type of communications occurring on the link.

Abstract: A tool system comprises a circular saw blade which is adapted to be moved in a reciprocating manner between an elevated, RETRACTED, INOPERATIVE position and a lowered, EXTENDED, OPERATIVE position so as to repeatedly form slits within a packaging structure at a plurality of positions which are defined at predeterminedly spaced locations along the longitudinal extent of the packaging structure. A circular saw blade guide member is disposed adjacent to the outer periphery of the circular saw blade and is movable along with the circular saw blade between its elevated, RETRACTED, INOPERATIVE position and its lowered, EXTENDED, OPERATIVE position. Accordingly, as the circular saw blade is moved from its lowered, EXTENDED, OPERATIVE position back to its elevated, RETRACTED, INOPERATIVE position, the guide member will in effect guide the circular saw blade back through the slit formed within the packaging structure so as to facilitate the retractive movement of the circular saw blade, back through the slit formed within the packaging structure, thereby effectively eliminating the tendency of the circular saw blade to otherwise encounter the edge or wall portions of the packaging structure, which define the slit, in an obstructive manner as the circular saw blade is moved from its lowered EXTENDED, OPERATIVE position to its elevated RETRACTED, INOPERATIVE position in preparation for the performance of a subsequent cutting operation.
