Abstract: A signal generator (26) develops baseband direct sequence spread spectrum digital bit streams (S1, S2, S3) from corresponding input data signals. The values of the digital bit steams are used to simultaneously control states (PI, PQ, GI, GQ) of phase modulators and variable attenuators which modulate the phase and amplitude of the in-phase and quadrature carrier components. This programmable waveform generator can be used to implement an interplex modulator producing a constant-envelope composite signal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Inducer (I) of mast cell death, contains a fusion protein comprising a protein transduction domain (PTD) and microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) variant, as active ingredient. An independent claim is also included for a fusion protein (II) comprising His-tag, PTD and MITF variant, where the MITF variant is mi variant, wh variant or bHLH-Zip (basic-helix-loop-helix/leucine zipper) fragment of MITF, and PTD is a TAT peptide-derivative. ACTIVITY : Cytostatic MECHANISM OF ACTION : Inducer of mast cell death (claimed); Inhibitor of mast cell differentiation. Fibroblasts and normal mast cells were cocultivated under conditions such that the mast cell continued to survive for a long period of time. To the culture solution, the fusion protein containing mi variant and wh variant was added. Survival of mast cells was found to be inhibited and after two weeks the cells became extinct. The reduction in the number of mast cells was confirmed by the reduction in histamine amount and reduction in chymase activity. This result suggested that the fusion protein inhibits mast cell growth and induces apoptosis (cell death) of mast cells.

Title: Jet nozzle mixer
Inventor: ANDERSON JACK H
IPC: F02K1/46
Filed: 2002-12-07
Granted: 2007-04-04
Abstract: An external jet nozzle mixer includes identically formed lobes. The external mixer works with the internal mixer further to mix the engine internal bypass flow with the internal jet engine core flow to level the disparate flow velocities, to reduce the peak velocities from the jet engine core and increase the lower bypass velocities of the engine internal bypass flow, and thereby reduce noise. The internal lobe contours act as lifting flutes, causing mixing of the primary hot and cold flows to mix before exiting the nozzle. The external lobe contours act as venturi chutes, accelerating the cooler ambient secondary air flow. The lobes thus act collectively as an injector to force the cooler ambient secondary flow into the previously mixed primary flow as it exits the nozzle. Also obtained is an increased thrust efficiency and, consequently, decreased fuel consumption and engine emissions.
