Abstract: A process is described for producing hybrid seed using male-sterile plants created by employing molecular techniques to manipulate antisense DNA and other genes that are capable of controlling the production of fertile pollen in plants. Transformation techniques are used to introduce constructs containing antisense DNA and other genes into plants. Said plants are functionally male-sterile and are useful for the production of hybrid seed by the crossing of said male-sterile plants with pollen from male-fertile plants. Hybrid seed production is simplified and improved by this invention and can be extended to plant crop species for which commercially acceptable hybrid seed production methods are not currently available.

Abstract: A comparator (1) compares with a threshold (Sn) each value (POn) of a sequence of first values each representing the intensity of one pixel of the image to be processed, which intensity is able to vary continuously, and delivers at output a second value (PRn) relating to the same image pixel as the said first value, and representing the intensity, able only to vary discretely, of the processed image. A circuit (3) is provided for calculating the value of the threshold in response to second values (PRn-1, PRn-2,... PRn-q) relating to a plurality of previously processed pixels, and a circuit (4, 5) for randomly perturbing the calculated value of the said threshold.

Abstract: A serial data interface communicates data between a control processor (1) and one or more slave processors (2) via a serial bus (3). Typically the control processor (1) may be formed in a hand held or lap top computer and the slave processor (2) in a peripheral device for the computer. The control processor (1) transmits a clock signal over a clock line in the serial bus (3) to the slave processor (2). At the same time, control or data frames are transmitted from the control processor (1) to the slave processor (2) or data frames are transmitted from the slave processor (2) to the control processor (1). Each data frame has a control portion which indentifies the frame as a control frame or as a data frame, and following the control portion a plurality of data bits bounded by idle bits. Both the slave processor (2) and the control processor (1) free the data line for a change in the direction of data transmission during each idle bit. In a preferred example, each control frame includes as one of its data bits a select bit identifying the control frame as a slave select frame or as a slave control frame. Each slave select frame includes as a further one of its data bits a reset bit. When the reset bit takes one pre-determined value the transmission of the slave select frame to the slave processor (2) causes that processor to reset to a pre-determined state. Otherwise, the transmission of the slave select frame to the slave processor selects or de-selects the slave processor. Each slave control frame includes as one or more of its data bits data transmission parameters which set the slave processor (2) to read or write one or more data frames subsequent to the current control frame.

Abstract: This invention relates to interdigitation-fusion (IF) liposomes and gels. These liposomes and gels capture high solute to lipid ratios, including bioactive agent. This invention also relates to the discovery that the fusion of liposomes to produce IF gel and liposomes according to the present invention is size dependent. The present invention also relates to a method for producing IF liposomes and gels. In the method of the present invention, sized liposomes formed by sonication, extrusion or alternative processes are fused in the presence of ethanol or other suitable inducer. This process results in a composition of the present invention in gel form. To produce liposomes, the gels are exposed to a temperature usually but not necessarily above the transition temperature (Tm) of the lipid used. The temperature required by the methods of the invention is that temperature which induces a change in the material properties of the mixture. The inducer may also be removed. The result is a composition comprising liposomes containing high solute to lipid ratios. The IF liposomes and gels of the present invention may be used in combination with numerous solutes, especially including bioactive agents.

Abstract: A metal-air power supply which provides improved control over air flow is provided. The reactant air and cooling air inlets are separate from one another and isolated from the exhausted reactant and cooling portions of the air flow. The reactant air flow is limited to a volumetric flow rate sufficient to provide from about 3 to about 10 times the stoichiometric amount of oxygen necessary to produce a predetermined level of current from the cell, and a total volumetric flow rate of air sufficient so that the cooling portion of the air flow has a volumetric flow rate from about 10 to about 1000 times the volumetric flow rate of the reactant portion of the air flow is provided. This limits the flow rate of the reactant air over the cathode, isolates the cooling air flow from the reactant air flow, and maintains the temperature of the metal-air cell at a low level without exposing the air cathode to an excessive air flow rate to reduce the likelihood of drying out the metal-air cells, reduce the exposure of the battery cell to contaminants, and minimize the effects of temperature on the vaporization of water within the cell. In a preferred embodiment, the power supply housing and the metal-air cell case form part of the air plenums. A substantially leak-proof metal-air cell is also disclosed.
