Bandwidth compression is performed by a number of different methods, at least one of which is applied to the upconverted source signal. The branch or method of bandwidth compression transmission is selected in accordance with a control signal responsive to picture content. Prior to transmission of the upconverted bandwidth compressed signal, the signal is collapsed to the transmission field rate and the samples rearranged into a quincunxial configuration.

Abstract: The presence or quantity of a selected subset of cells, which is part of a subpopulation of a mixed cell population, is determined by a method in which a detectable reporter substance is uniformly incorporated into substantially all cells of the subpopulation containing the subset of interest. The subset of interest is then affinity-separated by incubating a test sample of the mixed cell population containing the labeled subpopulation with a specific binding substance which selectively binds to characteristic determinants of the cell subset of interest. Occurrence of the reporter substance in the separated fraction is then detected, and correlated to a predetermined standard to determine the presence or quantity of the subset of interest within the cell population. According to another aspect of the invention a method is provided for quantitating two or more selected subsets of cells within a subpopulation of a mixed cell population. After labeling, the entire subpopulation is affinity-separated from the mixed cell population, and occurrence of the reporter substance in the separated fraction is detected. Next, subsets of interest within the subpopulation are affinity-separated as described above, and the level of detected reporter substance in each subset is compared to the level detected in the entire subpopulation. According to further aspects of the invention test kits are provided for performing the above-described methods.

Abstract: HNF-4 (hepatocyte nuclear factor 4) is a protein enriched in liver extracts that binds to sites required for the transcription of the transthyretin (TTR) and apolipoprotein CIII (apoCIII) genes (Costa et al., 1989; Costa et al., 1990; Leff et al., 1989). We have purified HNF-4 protein (54 kD) and isolated a cDNA clone encoding the protein. HNF-4 is a member of the steroid hormone receptor superfamily with an unusual amino acid in the conserved "knuckle" of the first zinc finger (DGCKG). This and the fact that HNF-4 does not bind significantly to estrogen, thyroid hormone or glucocorticoid response elements indicate that HNF-4 may represent a new subfamily. HNF-4 binds to its recognition site as a dimer and activates transcription in a sequence-specific fashion in nonhepatic (HeLa) cells. HNF-4 mRNA is present in kidney and intestine as well as liver but is absent in other tissues. DNA binding data suggest that HNF-4 could be identical to liver factor A1 (LF-A1), a factor previously shown to regulate the transcription of the  alpha -1 antitrypsin, apolipoprotein A1 and pyruvate kinase genes.

Abstract: In a data processing device for use in a carrier transmission system in processing a device input signal of a plurality of channels, a single data processing circuit (21) and a multiport RAM (33) are used together with a write and read clock counter (51(1)) in place of a great number of data processing circuits, equal in number to an integral multiple of the number of channels, and a likewise great number of sequential circuits, such as D-type flip-flops. Through a supply arrangement which is preferably a selector (41) for selectively supplying a test signal to the RAM, a processed output signal is supplied from the data processing circuit to the RAM as a processed input signal for storage as memorized signals according to the channels and for read out as a device output signal. If desired, additional clock counters (51(2) to 51(N)) are used for read out of the memorized signals as additional device output signals. After stored in the RAM, the test signal may be read out as an RAM test output signal, which can be processed by the data processing circuit, supplied through the selector, stored in the RAM, and read out as a processing circuit test output signal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A limited-life reusable hard pack for encasing a soft pack of cigarettes is disclosed. The reusable hard pack permits easy access to the cigarettes by the feature of a slideable interior wall 20 attached to a pivotable bottom wall which when moved relative to the exterior walls of the hard pack pushes the soft pack upward and beyond the top of the hard pack. An overhang on a top wall 50 extends across and beyond one side wall 25 to prevent the bottom wall from pivoting downward, beyond the bottom plane of the hard pack. The opposite side of the top wall leaves a gap through which cigarettes may be removed without opening the top closure. A tuck portion 60 is pivotably attached to the top wall. When the pack is closed, the tuck poriton lies inside and against the front wall 10 of the pack. One such hard pack is collapsed and inserted into a standard ten-pack carton. <IMAGE>

Date Oct. 28, 1993A method for determining the carbon equivalent (C.E.) of structure modified cast iron melts, and use of this method for adjusting the composition of a structure modified cast iron melt. The method is based on the introduction of one or more pieces of iron of low carbon content into a sample container. The iron piece or pieces has/have a size such that the iron piece/pieces will not melt completely when the sample container is filled with melt, which is allowed to solidify. The temperature of the melt is recorded as the melt solidifies. When practicing the method, there is obtained a well-defined absolute temperature as the temperature passes the  gamma -phase liquidus lines, or a temperature difference in relation to the eutectic temperature of structure-modified cast iron of a closely similar type. The carbon equivalent is determined on the basis of a phase diagram applicable to this structure-modified cast iron. The carbon equivalent of the melt is adjusted by adding carbon and/or silicon or iron of low carbon content.
