Title: Alimentations a decoupage avec mode de pseudo-elevation de tension, de pseudo-abaissement de tension et de precharge lineaire
Inventor: HSU JEAN F Y
IPC: H02M3/158
Filed: 1999-05-14
Abstract: L'invention concerne une variété de modes de démarrage, permettant de commander une alimentation à découpage de type élévation de tension. Un mode de chargement linéaire couple directement la tension d'entrée avec la tension de sortie, ce qui précharge le condensateur de sortie de l'alimentation à découpage. Le mode linéaire sert à réduire un appel de courant et limite la tension de contrainte imposée aux dispositifs d'alimentation à découpage. Un mode de pseudo-abaissement (402) introduit, de préférence, une fois que le mode linéaire a préchargé le condensateur de sortie, commande l'alimentation à découpage de type élévation de tension, en vue de fournir une puissance à la sortie, essentiellement de la même manière que le ferait une alimentation à découpage de type abaissement de tension. Le condensateur de sortie est ainsi chargé en continu, ce qui réduit le temps de démarrage et augmente l'efficacité de la puissance. Un mode de pseudo-abaissement (402) permet également d'abaisser une génération de tension au moyen d'un circuit de type élévation de tension. Un mode de pseudo-élévation de tension (404) permet d'adoucir une transition entre les modes de pseudo-abaissement et d'élévation classiques.

Title: Alpha 2,8/2,9 polysialyltransferase
Inventor: WONG CHI-HUEY
IPC: C12N9/10
Filed: 1999-08-10
Abstract: The capsular polysaccharide of Escherichia coli K92 contains alternating (-8-NeuAc alpha 2-) and (-9-NeuAc alpha 2-) linkages. The enzyme catalyzing this polymerizing reaction has been cloned from the genomic DNA of E. coli K92. The 1.2 kb PCR<1> fragment was subcloned in pRSET vector and the protein was expressed in the BL21(DE3) strain of E. coli with a hexameric histidine at its N-terminal end. The enzyme was isolated in the supernatant after lysis of the cells and fractionated by ultracentrifugation. Western blotting using anti-histidine antibody showed the presence of a band that migrated at about 47.5 kD on both reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE, indicating a monomeric enzyme. Among the carbohydrate acceptors tested, N-acetylneuraminic acid and the gangliosides GD3 and GQ1b were preferred substrates. The cell-free enzyme reaction products obtained were characterized by NMR and mass spectrometry, which indicated the presence of both  alpha 2,9- and  alpha 2,8-linked polysialyl structure. The K92 neuS gene was used to transform the K1 strain of E. coli, the capsule of which contains only (-8-NeuAc alpha 2-) linkages. Analysis of the polysaccharides isolated from these transformed cells is consistent with the presence of both (-8-NeuAc alpha 2-) and (-9-NeuAc alpha 2-) linkages. It is disclosed that the neuS gene product of E. coli K92 catalyzes the synthesis of polysialic acid with  alpha 2,9- and  alpha 2,8- linkages in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract: The following process control is performed in the case
of fabricating both a wafer for a device including a Ge-containing
semiconductor film and a wafer for a SiCMOS device,
for example, including no Ge-containing semiconductor
film on a common fabrication line. When the wafer including
the Ge-containing semiconductor film is to be subjected to
high-temperature treatment at 700°C or more in the state of
the Ge-containing semiconductor film being substantially exposed,
the Ge-containing semiconductor film is covered with a
cap layer made of Si or the like before the high-temperature
treatment. The cap layer may be formed on the common fabrication
line, but, if the formation of the cap layer itself
involves high temperature of 700°C or more, it is performed on
a fabrication line separate from the common fabrication line.
Alternatively, the cap layer may be formed on a fabrication
line separate from the common fabrication line and the high-temperature
treatment at 700°C or more may also be performed
on a separate fabrication line. Otherwise, it is enough to
only perform the high-temperature treatment at 700°C or more
on a separate line.
