Abstract: Process for cross-linking proteins involves contacting the proteins with at least one ketose containing specific carbon atoms (0.5 to 20, preferably 1 - 10, especially 1 - 5 wt.%); maintaining the contact between the proteins and the ketose for a period of time greater than a few minutes (preferably 10 - 60 minutes, especially 30 minutes), at 20 - 105 (preferably 35 - 105)[deg]C; and recovering the cross-linked proteins thus obtained. Process for cross-linking proteins involves contacting the proteins with at least one 3-5C ketose (0.5 to 20, preferably 1 - 10, especially 1 - 5 wt.%); maintaining the contact between the proteins and the ketose for a period of time greater than a few minutes (preferably 10 - 60 minutes, especially 30 minutes), at 20 - 105 (preferably 35 - 105)[deg]C; and recovering the cross-linked proteins thus obtained. The protein is selected from group comprising proteins from animal tissues, from milk or from blood (such as casein, gelatin or collagen); proteins from cereals (such as maize, wheat or rice proteins); proteins from high-protein plants (such as pea, alfalfa, lupin, barley, millet or sorghum proteins); proteins from oleaginous plants (such as soybean proteins e.g. soybean cakes, rapeseed or flax proteins, rapeseed cakes, sunflower, groundnut or cotton proteins); and proteins from tubers (such as potato or manioc).

Abstract: An electrically operated brake device where braking force differences between electrically operated brakes are reduced to prevent unstable vehicle traveling during braking. Motors (13) of electrically operated brakes are returned to standard positions during the stop of a vehicle, and then a motor (13) of each of the brakes is driven for a certain predetermined amount, pressing a brake pad (17) against a disk rotor (18) to produce a braking force. An electric current value of each motor (13) in the above operation is measured and differences between the values are calculated. Electric current of each motor is increased or decreased so that there is no current difference between the motors (13). Based on a drive amount of each motor in this operation, standard positions of the motors are determined and renewed. Repeating the above operations reduces braking force differences between the brakes.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for implementing forced frequency "hops" if the time it takes to perform a particular transaction is greater than the time available on a particular carrier frequency. In one embodiment of the present invention, a radio frequency identification (RFID) base station processor (in conjunction with program information stored in a base station memory) is adapted to (i) determine the amount of time available on a particular carrier frequency (e.g., pursuant to Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations, European Telecommunications Standardization Institute (ETSI) regulations, etc.), (ii) determine the amount of time it would take to perform a particular transaction, and (iii) force the base station to "hop" to another carrier frequency if the transaction time is longer than the available time. In one embodiment of the present invention, the time it would take to perform a particular transaction is the time it would take to perform the next transaction. In another embodiment of the present invention, the time it would take to perform a particular transaction is the time it would take to perform the longest (or "worst-case") transaction. In alternate embodiments of the present invention, a transaction is defined as the transmission of information (e.g., data, commands, etc.) or both the transmission of information and the reception of related information.

Abstract: There is provided a side-reinforced run flat tire capable of enhancing safety at the time of running with its internal pressure kept in a range of 50 to 150 kPa.  A belt-reinforcing layer 8a is made up of a composite cord formed by twisting a high-modulus fiber and a low-modulus fiber together. A stress-strain curve of the composite cord preferably has an inflection point between a low-modulus region, and a high-modulus region, set to fall in a range of 2 to 7 % in strain. In a region of the composite cord, smaller in strain, deformation of a tread is more tolerated than in the case of using a low-modulus cord, and deflection of the sidewall is more deterred than in the case of using the high-modulus cord. Further, when the strain of the composite cord reaches the high-modulus region, the composite cord exhibits modulus of elasticity higher than that in the case of using the low-modulus cord, so that the tread does not undergo excessive deformation such as will occur in the case of using the low-modulus cord. As a result, there will occur enhancement in center ground-contact length as well as durability of the tire when an internal pressure thereof is kept in the range of 50 to 100 kPa, resulting in enhancement in safety at the time of running with the internal pressure kept in the range of 50 to 100 kPa.

Abstract: An encryption apparatus (200) comprises an elapsed time processor (205) which determines an elapsed time from a transmission of a previous encryption synchronisation message such as a synchronisation initialisation value. Encryption synchronisation messages are transmitted by replacing user data transmissions, e.g. by slot stealing. A priority processor (207) determines a first priority of the current user data transmission and a time threshold function (209) provides a corresponding first time. A transmit unit (201) transmits a new encryption synchronisation message when the elapsed time exceeds the first time threshold. The apparatus (200) further comprises a function controller (211) which is operable to modify the function between the first priority and the first time threshold during the call. The invention is particularly applicable to TETRA and may provide a dynamic trade-off between the speed of encryption re-synchronisation and late entry and the audio quality degradation.
