Abstract: Novel peptide nucleic acids and novel linked peptide nucleic acids, form triple stranded structures with nucleic acids. The peptide nucleic acids include ligands such as naturally occurring nucleobases attached to a peptide backbone through a suitable linker. Other nucleobases including C-pyrimidines and iso-pyrimidines can be used as the ligands in Hoogsteen strands to increase binding affinity. Two peptide nucleic acid strands are joined together with a linker to form a bis-peptide nucleic acid. The individual strands of the peptide nucleic acids in the bis compounds can be orientated either parallel or antiparallel to each other.

Abstract: In a super density optical disk for storing video data, video data is compressed to packs defined in MPEG and trains of the packs are stored in an video object unit. The video object unit includes a navigation pack which is placed at the head of the pack train. In data cell, a plurality of video object units each being reproduced within a predetermined period are arranged and a cell playback information table describes a cell playback information which defines a playback order of the cells. The navigation pack has an area storing playback information for reproducing each video object unit and search information for indicating the relationship with other video object units. Specifically, the navigation pack contains control information including an angle information for indicating a start address of another video object unit storing playback/video data for a different scene which is contemporary with or preceding that for which the reproducible data is stored in the video object unit to which the navigation pack belongs, and additional control information including another angle information indicating a start address of a group of the video object units to be reproduced after the video object unit to which the navigation pack belongs. The data cells and the cell playback information table are stored in the optical disk.

Abstract: The profiling machine (1) is rolled along the rail (47) supported on flanged wheels (22) at each end. Swivel mountings (8) support a grinding frame (3) to position a grinding head onto the rail profile. Guide rollers (4) on the grinding head limit the amount of rail material taken off by the grinding head. The rollers tilt with the frame alignment about an axis parallel to the rail. The two flanges on each support wheel provide a vertical reference for grinding the two flanges of the rail with the appropriate flange brought into contact with the side of the rail by lateral movement of the wheel. The swivel action is controlled by a geared drive (33,34) on the swivel mounting. The differences in height setting, w.r.t. the rail, of the rollers and the flanged wheels control the amount of material removed by the grinding head.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling a switch and in this method, the changing of prevailing light intensity is observed and the switch is controlled on the basis of the prevailing light intensity so that the switch is switched on when the light intensity falls below the set threshold value and then a load, for example an illuminator, is connected to a source of electricity and respectively, the switch is switched off when the light intensity exceeds the set threshold value and then the load is disconnected from the source of electricity. According to the invention, when a prominent and relatively stable change in the prevailing light intensity (A) is detected, this is interpreted as being morning and/or evening depending on the direction of the change; from these moments of changes in light intensities, the time of sunrise (ta) and/or respectively the time of sunset (tb) may be calculated; and according to the calculated time of sunrise and/or sunset, a clock is synchronized and by means of this clock, the daily timing of the switch is achieved as well as the control of the switching of the load, such as an illumintaor, connected via the switch to the source of electricity and off from it by following a desired program.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un système (52) d'extraction des signaux de variation des cycles cardiaques pour détecteur de profondeur d'anesthésie, lequel système s'appuie sur les fluctuations des cycles cardiaques d'un organisme vivant qui sont détectés continuellement par un système (50) de détection des cycles cardiaques. Ce système (52) va, d'une part, extraire le premier signal HFCRR de variation de cycle cardiaque et l'utiliser en qualité de composante variable du cycle cardiaque qui se produit de manière approximativement synchrone à la respiration de l'organisme, et, d'autre part, extraire le second signal LFCRR de variation de cycle cardiaque qui est constitué des composantes ayant des fréquences spécifiques inférieures à celle du premier signal HFCRR. La profondeur d'anesthésie de l'organisme est calculée d'après le rapport entre le HFCRR et le LFCRR par un système de calcul (54) de la profondeur de l'anesthésie. Il est ainsi possible de calculer avec précision et de manière objective ou quantitative, la profondeur de l'anesthésie chez un organisme vivant sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'effectuer des examens poussés.
