Abstract: A method for measuring three-dimensional displacement of a mass comprises the steps of providing a measuring object placed on the end surface of the mass, for reflecting at least a fraction of three-dimensional displacement of the mass, arranging a displacement measuring equipment for free displacement relative to the mass and in opposition to the measuring object, and measuring three-dimensional relative displacement of the mass by detecting relative displacement of sad displacement indicative means relative to the displacement measuring equipment by the latter. The method is implemented by a three-dimensional displacement measuring system comprises a measuring object placed on the end surface of the mass, for reflecting at least a fraction of three-dimensional displacement of the mass, a displacement measuring equipment arranged for free displacement relative to the mass and in opposition to the measuring object, for measuring three-dimensional relative displacement of the mass by detecting relative displacement of sad displacement indicative means relative to the displacement measuring equipment by the latter.

Abstract: A carbohydrate is added to sand, which has been used to make foundry moulds or cores, and which has been bonded using an alkaline resol phenol-formaldehyde resin, prior to reclamation of the sand by a thermal reclamation. The thermal reclamation may be done in other equipment, for example, a rotary thermal reclamation unit, but is preferably done in a fluidized bed reclamation unit. The carbohydrate is preferably water soluble and is added to the used sand as an aqueous solution. The carbohydrate may be for example a monosaccharide, such as glucose, mannose, galactose or fructose, or a disaccharide such as sucrose, maltose or lactose. The carbohydrate may also be a carbohydrate derivative such as a polyhydric alcohol (e.g., ethylene glycol, glycerol, pentaerythritol, xylitol, mannitol or sorbitol), a sugar acid (e.g., gluconic acid), or a polysaccharide derivative (e.g., a starch hydrolysate, i.e., a glucose syrup or a dextrin). The amount of carbohydrate used in the reclamation process is usually of the order of 0.25% to 5.0% by weight based on the weight of used sand.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for transforming cells, resulting in efficient and stable site-specific integration of transgenes, are disclosed. Transformation is achieved by introducing into a cell an acceptor vector, preferably a retroviral vector, which integrates into the genome of the cell. The acceptor vector comprises two incompatible lox sequences, L1 and L2. A donor vector is then introduced into the cell comprising a transgene flanked by the same L1 and L2 sequences. Stable gene transfer is initiated by contacting the lox L1 and L2 sequences with Cre recombinase.

Abstract: A process and apparatus are described for producing drawstring packets. The packets are produced by forming thread loops (L) with tags (T) attached to their ends and placing the packet web material (W) onto the portions of a the loops further from the tags. After securing the loops in their shaped form temporarily to one face of the web, the tags and the remaining portions of thread are placed on the other face of the web to be attached there releasably. In subsequent processing the secured loop portions lie inside the packets and the tags outside. The process allows relatively precise location of the loops so that packets can be produced with the loops in a peripheral channel (P) sealed from the contents of the packets but able to move to contract the package when the ends of the loop are pulled.

Abstract: The invention concerns redispersible polymer powders which can be used in a variety of ways, for example, in hydraulically binding systems, but also as binder in greatly varied applications and which can be produced by spray-drying of aqueous dispersions. The sprayable aqueous dispersions are prepared by mixing an aqueous polymer dispersion 1 (containing polymer I) with an aqueous polymer dispersion 2 (containing polymer II) where the diameters of the particles of polymer I are greater by a factor of 5 to 150, preferably 15 to 50, than the diameter of the particles of polymer II, and polymer I is a polymer which forms films at room temperature, while polymer II has a glass transition temperature which is higher than that of polymer I, is insoluble in water and thus it is present in the undissolved form in the aqueous dispersion to be sprayed. The polymer powders according to the invention excel by a clearly improved resistance to blocking and very good storage stability.

Abstract: A personal care article includes a resiliently stretchable outer cover. In a first embodiment, a first zone of the outer cover is embossed forming a pattern of embossments providing a first set of desired properties pertaining to stretch of a portion of the outer cover. A second zone of the outer cover is not modified to provide the first set of properties and thus has different stretch properties than the first zone. In a second embodiment, a first panel is secured to a resiliently extensible second panel. A first zone of the second panel can have a pattern of embossments securing the second panel to the first panel. The embossments cause the first zone to have different stretch properties than a second zone of the second panel that is not embossed thereby to impart the set of stretch properties.
