Abstract: The invention relates to a genetic unit, which is optionally in multicopy form, for the inhibition of RNA. The unit contains the transcription units necessary for transcription by polymerase III, and a DNA which codes for inhibiting RNA and which is arranged within the unit in such a way that the transcribed RNA is part of the polymerase III transcript. These units can be used to achieve increased stability of the inhibiting RNA, which can be in the form of ribozymes or antisense RNAs, while there is no reduction in the activity. The invention furthermore relates to a process for introducing the genetic units into the cell, to the use of these units and to pharmaceutical formulations containing them.

Abstract: A pneumoperitoneal needle (1) is described which comprises a hollow needle (2) for penetrating a body cavity and a hollow obturator (3) having a blunt tip (30) and through which a fluid may be transferred to and from the body cavity. The obturator (3) is mounted within the needle (2) and is linearly movable between a first position in which the blunt tip (30) of the obturator (3) extends beyond the tip (40) of the needle (2) and a second position in which the tip (40) of the needle (2) extends beyond the tip (30) of the obturator (3). There is also biassing means (7) which biasses the obturator (3) to the first position and the biassing means (7) is such that during penetration of the body cavity the resistance is sufficient to overcome the biassing means (7) and move the obturator (3) from the first position to the second position. After the body cavity has been penetrated the obturator (3) returns to the first position under the action of the biasing means (7). The obturator (3) is rotatable within the needle (2) and has through its wall at least two apertures (31, 32) adjacent to the tip (30) of the obturator (3) so that when the obturator (3) is in the first position fluid may pass through at least one of the apertures (31, 32) irrespective of the orientation of the obturator (3) relative to the needle (2). There is also a visual indicating means (5, 6) which indicates whether or not the obturator (3) is in the first position.

Abstract: The rewinding machine of the present invention produces rolls or logs of paper such as toilet paper, kitchen towels, etc. It includes an upper winding cylinder (9; 109), a lower winding cylinder (10) forming with the upper one an interspace (12), a mobile roller (14) able to define with said two cylinders a space in which the roll is wound. A pusher (22) inserts individual cores (A) in said interspace, and an applicator (34, 36, 38) wets the cores with adhesive. In combination with one (9; 109) of the two winding cylinders (9, 109; 10) a fixed surface (52; 80) is provided. A web of incoming paper N slides along the surface (52; 80). The pusher (22) moves the core (A1) at an insertion speed which is lower than the paper-feeding speed. During its insertion into the interspace (12) the core (A1) moves toward the fixed surface (52; 80), providing a temporary braking effect on the web N lying between the fixed surface (52; 80) and the core (A1). This causes the web to tear between the just-completely formed roll (R) and the incoming core (A1).

Abstract: A method of and apparatus for dynamically mechanically bonding together a plurality of laminae, at least one of which comprises thermoplastic material: for example, polyethylene. In one aspect of the invention the laminae are forwarded in face to face relation through a pressure biased nip between a patterned nip defining member and an opposing nip defining member (eg, a relief patterned cylinder and an anvil cylinder) which members are independently driven to maintain a predetermined surface velocity differential between them. In another aspect of the invention which is particularly useful at intermediate and higher line velocities --preferably for line velocities of about 300 feet or more per minute and, more preferably, for line speeds of about 450 feet or more per minute -- the nip defining members say be operated with equal surface velocities. In each of these aspects of the invention, the members may be biased towards each other to provide a predetermined pattern-element-psi loading; and, additionally, they may be independently heated to provide each with an elevated surface temperature which is, preferably, in a predetermined range below the melt temperature of the thermoplastic lamina disposed closest to or in contact with each respective nip defining member as the laminae are forwarded through the nip. <IMAGE>

An attachment element (13), which is connected to said door-side hinge part (10) and its end face and engages on the door (2), is adjustable in its spacing transversely relative to the door surface and relative to the hinge part (10) and thus also relative to the door-side end face of the hinge part (10), that is to say a transverse adjustment of the door transversely to the plane covered by it relative to the hinge (9) is possible so that, when using two hinges located one above the other, the edge of the door and its end face (6) or door-side surface can be adjusted to match a corresponding counter-piece, for example a second door (2) or a fixed wall part (5). Additionally, adjustment in the direction of the plane of the door leaf can also be provided, for example by means of an essentially horizontal guide or rod (11) transversely to the pivot axis (12) of the door hinge (9). <IMAGE>
