Title: Purification et microsequencage d'isozymes de hyaluronidase
Inventor: STERN ROBERT
IPC: G01N33/573
Filed: 1998-11-12
Abstract: Purification et séquençage d'isozymes de hyaluronidase plasmatique (pHAse) présente dans l'urine. Spécifiquement, l'urine contient deux hyaluronidases (HAses): (1) une HAse de 57 kDa qui est apparemment identique à la HAse de 57 kDa présente dans le plasma et (2) une HAse de 45 kDa qui est présente dans l'urine, mais non dans le plasma. L'isozyme plus petite présente dans l'urine est composée de deux polypeptides à liaison disulfure produits par clivage endoprotéolytique de l'isoforme de 57 kDa. La présente invention concerne donc un polypeptide de hyaluronidase urinaire (uHAse) et des séquences nucléotidiques codant un polypeptide de chaîne A et un polypeptide de chaîne B, qui sont les polypeptides composant la uHAse. Dans un aspect particulier, la uHAse est une uHAse humaine (huHAse), de préférence une huHAse composée des polypeptides de chaîne A et de chaîne B ayant les SEQ ID NOS 2 et 4 respectivement. Dans des aspects associés, la présente invention concerne une séquence polynucléotidique codant les polypeptides de chaîne A et de chaîne B ayant de préférence les séquences SEQ ID NOS 1 et 3 respectivement. De plus, elle concerne des séquences polynucléotidiques qui s'hybrident dans des conditions de stringence aux SEQ ID NOS 1 et 3. Dans des aspects associés, la présente invention concerne encore des vecteurs d'expression et des cellules hôtes comprenant les polynucléotides qui codent les chaînes A et B polypeptidiques d'uHAse. Elle concerne enfin des anticorps qui se lient spécifiquement à l'uHAse et des procédés de production d'uHAse.

Abstract: A system and method which enables the location and orientation of an image
to be determined without introducing scanning artifacts into the rendered image.
The system utilizes a separate set of sensors on a scanning bar that are sensitive to
a wavelength of light outside the range of wavelengths of the typical sensors found
on the scanning bar, such as red, green, or blue. Moreover, the system includes a
light source which is capable of emitting the wavelength of light that is outside this
range of wavelength of light. Thus, whenever the additional set of sensors detect
light, the system would determine that the light was due to a scanning artifact, such
as a hole, rip, or dog ear in the original document being scanned. Furthermore, the
system would include a process which measures the variations of the image signal in
the fastscan and slowscan directions, as well as, the gray level of the video signal
from these various measurements, the system would develop a cost value as to the
certainty as whether the signal represents a scanning artifact. In such a system, the
backing would be embedded with a pattern which would have a predetermined
variation in a fastscan direction but have little or no variation in a slowscan direction.

Abstract: Each bioreactor (1) is positioned on a rotary shaker (2). A gas supply aerates the culture fluid (9) surface. The bioreactors share a common outlet (18) for gases evolved and culture fluid (9) leaving. Preferred features: The cross section of each bioreactor is circular, along its axis. The axis of the outlet tube (18) makes an angle of 90 degrees to 0 degrees with a tangent to the circumference of each bioreactor, especially an external angle  alpha  of 3 degrees -10 degrees . The axis of the outlet tube also slants downwards at an angle  beta  to the horizontal, preferably  beta  = 2 degrees -45 degrees . The opening of the outlet tube into the interior of the bioreactor has a maximum edge radius between the tube and the interior, of 0.2 mm. In a modification, concentric with the bioreactor axis, circular internal walls partition reaction stages. Incisions in their upper edges, preferably over 30 degrees -60 degrees , form culture fluid overflows. In a further variant, walls reach to the top of the reactor and include bores acting as overflows, suitably angled. Incisions or bores are offset around circumferences, avoiding overlap. The outlet tube of the cascade, is interchangeable and/or forms part of a sealed chamber with lid.

Abstract: Scroll compressors are provided with injection ports for injecting fluid from
a supplemental source such as an economizer cycle or by-passing fluid through an
unloader valve. The injection ports are formed in each of two compression
chambers whose volume is being reduced towards a discharge port. Due to various
design constraints, it is desirable that the injection ports have unequal characteristics.
In some cases, it may be desirable to make the injection ports of different size,
including width, depth, and length. In other applications, it may be desirable to
locate the injection ports at different angular positions relative to compression
chambers seal off from suction.

Abstract: Several methods and production facilities are provided in order to
solve several problems encountered in conventional methods and facilities
for producing reduced iron by reducing raw material pellets of a mixture of
an iron oxide powder and a reducing material powder in a rotary bed-type
reducing furnace and by melting the reduced iron in a sealed-type electro-blast
furnace. 
     Re-oxidation of reduced pellets of the mixture pellets is prevented by
introducing into a rotary bed-type reducing furnace a reduced gas
generated in an electro-blast furnace. In addition, an improved
mechanical strength of reduced pellets after direct reduction is attained by
applying rolling action to the reduced pellets. 
     A few method and facilities are provided for reliable utilization of wet
mixture pellets and a preferable compositions of binders for forming the
raw material mixture are selected. A novel charging device for charging
raw material pellets is developed which is capable of charging the pellets
on the rotary bed as a uniform layer formed by piling one or more pellets.

Abstract: While process gas is fed from a gas supply means (31)

hydrogen-containing plasma is generated by the plasma generating
means (21) under a low pressure. A soft solder alloy on the
surface of a workpiece (11) supported by a workpiece exposing
means (15) is exposed to the hydrogen-containing plasma so that
the soft solder alloy is exposed with the hydrogen-containing
plasma. Either simultaneously with or immediately after the
plasma exposure, the soft solder alloy undergoes reflow treatment
in a vacuum by a heating means (36). As no flux is used, there
is no need of a washing process, and the bump-shaped electrode
terminals produced by using the inexpensive soft solder alloy
on the surface of the workpiece (11) have great reliability.

Abstract: A dispensing system is provided which assists in preventing oxidation of a product having an oxygen labile component. The system comprises a container having an internal chamber and a neck providing access to the internal chamber. A pump is attached to the neck of the container. The pump projects into the internal chamber. A gas producing structure is attached to a portion of the pump that projects into the container. By one or more mechanisms, the gas producing structure gradually releases a gas, such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, or any other gas that is substantially unreactive with the labile component of the product. The released gas provides two advantages. First, the gas serves to keep internal pressure of the system at a constant level. Second, the gas released is one which will not degrade labile components of the product. The ability of this dispensing system to at least partially fill the headspace of the package with a gas that does not readily degrade the labile component of the product aids in slowing down the degradation of that product. Therefore, since oxygen is displaced by released gas in the headspace, the oxidation process is slowed.
