Abstract: A polypropylene composition comprising 0.001 to 10 parts by weight of
a polyethylene having an intrinsic viscosity [ηE] of 0.01 to less than 15 dl/g
as measured in tetralin at 135 °C and 100 parts by weight of a polyolefin
comprising at least polypropylene, wherein the polyethylene is finely
dispersed as particles with a number average particle diameter of, e.g., 1 to
5000 nm in the polyolefin comprising at least polypropylene. By virtue of
the above constitution, the polypropylene composition has excellent
transparency and rigidity, is free from the creation of a sweeper roll flow
mark in the preparation of a film and substantially free from a neck-in
phenomenon of a film, and has high productivity.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de détermination de la vélocité d'un stylet conducteur (102) sur une tablette graphique (100). La génération d'impulsions successives dans des conducteurs successifs, disposés de manière régulière dans la tablette, permet de produire un signal électromagnétique dans un stylet conducteur situé à proximité de la tablette. Lorsque le stylet se trouve à proximité de la surface d'écriture de la tablette, le signal émis par le stylet présente un maximum local signalant l'emplacement dudit stylet. La distance séparant les bords des deux côtés de ce maximum local constitue une indication sur la vélocité du stylet.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des produits pharmaceutiques qui suppriment ou éliminent le rejet des hétérogreffes. Chaque produit est basé sur l'utilisation d'un agent de fixation de la classe II du complexe majeur d'histocompatibilité (CMH), tel qu'un anticorps anti-CMH-II, pour inhiber la fonction des cellules B indépendante des cellules T durant la phase de rejet aiguë retardée de l'hétérogreffe. L'utilisation combinée de l'agent de fixation de la classe II du CMH et d'un immunosuppresseur capable de supprimer l'activation des cellules T, tel que la cyclosporine, et éventuellement d'un inhibiteur de la fonction des cellules B, tel que la cyclophosphamide, permettent de prolonger la survie du greffon au-delà de ce qui est possible quand on utilise chaque agent séparément.

Abstract: The system provides control of one or more actuators (A1) equipped with end-of-course switches, using pulse command points (SL1F) capable of delivering signals (CL) of two different polarities. This enables control of the actuator in either of two directions. The pulse command point is connected to a management module (BG) associated with the actuator, which is configured to recognise the polarity of the received signals. The module also includes a device to process these signals and a device controlling the switching of the supply. Another device in the management module connects to the supply source, responds to the received control signal, and supplies the management module itself continuously.

Abstract: A method of reconstituting an animal embryo involves transferring the nucleus
from a quiescent donor cell into a suitable recipient cell. The donor cell is quiescent,
in that it is caused to exit from the growth and division cycle at G1 and to arrest in the
G0 state. Nuclear transfer may take place by cell fusion. The reconstituted embryo
may then give rise to one or more animals. The invention is useful in the production
of transgenic animals as well as non-transgenics of high genetic merit.

Abstract: A device for degassing water and separating a steam/water
mixture into steam and water comprises a vessel (41) having
at least one sprayer (4), which is arranged in the top of
the vessel, for feeding water which is to be degassed, at
least one outlet (6) for gases which have been separated
off, a manifold (7) which is arranged in the vessel and has
a feed connection (47) for steam, and at least one outlet
(11,12) for degassed water. The device furthermore
comprises a separating device (2) for separating water and
steam. The water which is to be degassed is sprayed, by
means of the sprayer (4), as droplets (29) into the vessel,
which is also partially filled with at least partially
degassed water (30). Via the manifold (7), steam emanating
from the separating device (2) is passed through this
water. The steam is discharged from the vessel together
with gases which have been released from the water and with
gases which have been released from the water sprayed by
the sprayer, and the degassed water is drained off. The
water which has been separated off in the separating device
is added to the degassed water in the vessel. That part of
the steam separated off in the separating device which is
not used for degassing purposes is used as process steam.

Abstract: The method involves the following stages. First calculating a numerical model of the landscape from two independent stereoscopic pictures (1). Then, the numerical model is used to calculate crest lines indicating maximum curvature (2). The crest lines obtained are projected onto the stereoscopic images (3). Segments of contours are extracted from the stereoscopic images using chainage and polygonisation (4). This operation does not necessarily follow the previous stages in sequence. Contours corresponding to crest lines according to affinity criteria are identified (5), and contours corresponding to a particular crest line may be replaced by an average contour (6).

Abstract: In driving a load in a PWM mode in function of numeric command values of a
certain N number of bits by converting the current numeric command value in at
least a driving PWM signal (PWM_A, PWM_B) having a fixed frequency and a
duty cycle proportional to the numeric command value, comparing through a
comparator (COMPARATOR) the N bit numeric value with the counter of an
up/down counter of the same number (N) of bits (N BIT UP/DOWN COUNTER)
functioning in a continuous mode at the frequency of a system's clock signal
(SysClk), the definition of the conversion may be enhanced withtout
correspondingly increasing the number of bits of the UP/DOWN COUNTER.
This is achieved by incrementing by more than a unit (N+3) the number of bits on
which a certain command value is mapped; converting the N most significant
bits with the exception of said additional bits of said command value by means of
said comparator and up/down counter; decoding said additional bits by generating
a corresponding plurality of intermediate levels of variation of the duty cycle, each
of which has a duration of half a clock period (SysClk/2) producing a plurality of
signals, outphased among each other by half a clock period (A, B, C, D, B, A', B',
C', D', E'); generating said driving PWM signal (IN_A, IN_B) by multiplating
(MULTIPLEXER) said signals outphased among each other by half a clock
period, carrying out logic combinations of such signals in function of the most
significative bit (MSB) of the numeric command value and of said least
significative additional bits.
