Abstract: A universal lock and key assembly in which the lock is re-keyable and the key is also changeable. The key has a shank portion having a longitudinally extending tooth slot in its top surface. A plurality of teeth have their bottom ends inserted into the tooth slot in any desired sequence to give a predetermined profile to the teeth of the key. The bottom pin cylinder of the lock has mating bottom pins for each of the respective teeth. These are then arranged in a coordinated sequence in the bottom pin cylinder of the lock. The structure of the system allows an individual to change both the configuration of the key and also the mating structure within the lock so it will be operable.

Abstract: La présente invention décrit un système et un procédé pour fermer des malformations septales et analogue. Ce système comprend un dispositif de fermeture (10) possédant une paire de disques d'occlusion (20, 30) chaque disque étant formé d'une membrane (22, 32) et d'un cadre élastiquement déformable (24, 34) supporté autour de la périphérie de la membrane (22, 32). Ce cadre (24, 34) qui peut être formé d'un matériau superélastique, peut s'aplatir pour permettre le passage à travers un cathéter, et reprendre par élasticité une forme prédéterminée permettant de maintenir la membrane tendue. Une partie centrale de la membrane (22, 32) de chaque disque (20, 30) est fixée à une partie centrale de l'autre membrane afin de définir un disque conjoint (40). Le procédé décrit consiste à aplatir les cadres (24, 34) des disques (20, 30) à introduire le dispositif de fermeture (10) dans un cathéter, et à positionner l'extrémité distale du cathéter de manière adjacente à une malformation septale. Le premier disque (70) est poussé hors de l'extrémité distale du cathéter pour permettre à son cadre de reprendre par élasticité une forme prédéterminée, la membrane étant alors tendue d'un côté de la malformation. Le deuxième disque (30) est ensuite déployé de la même manière d'un autre côté de la malformation, le disque conjoint (40) étant positionné automatiquement à l'intérieur de ladite malformation pour l'occlure.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a novel synthetic polypeptide derived from the first type III repeat of fibronectin. The synthetic polypeptide of the invention encompasses a fibronectin-fibronectin binding site, and is capable of inhibiting fibronectin matrix assembly. In contrast to previously identified fibronectin fragments that block fibronectin matrix assembly by blocking an initial event in matrix assembly (i.e., fibronectin binding to cells), the invention polypeptide appears to inhibit an intermediate step in matrix assembly, i.e., fibronectin self-association prior to the disulfide cross-linking that stabilizes the fibronectin matrix.

Date Nov. 25, 1993An expansion joint for part of a railway track arranged on a foundation has a stock rail with a stock rail head and a tongue movable with respect to and along said stock rail head, upon which at least one fastening device acts for pressing it on the stock rail. This expansion joint enables the rail foot to be longitudinally moved with little friction and excludes tipping of the stock rail or tongue. For that purpose, the tongue is not bolted but pressed only against the stock rail by the fastening device, and the force thus transmitted is decomposed into components that act on the one hand in the direction of the foundation and on the other hand in the direction of the stock rail head.

Abstract: An energy window of a scintillation camera system is set to include only events which have been Compton-scattered within a slice of the body of a patient undergoing a SPECT examination. From events so acquired, a scatter image is reconstructed. The scatter image is processed to define therewithin a plurality of regions of constant attenuation coefficient. This information can be used during the normal image reconstruction process to eliminate artifacts caused by variation in attenuation coefficient.

Abstract: A thermal mass flow controller having a thermal mass flow meter with an orthogonal thermal mass flow sensor includes a base defining a primary fluid flow path therein for carrying a flow of fluid to be metered. A pressure dropping bypass is positioned in the primary fluid flow path. A flow measuring portion of a thermal mass flow sensor is oriented substantially transversely or orthogonally with respect to and is in communication with the primary fluid flow path. The flow measuring portion includes a portion of an electrical bridge for determining a temperature of the sensor and produces a mass flow rate signal in response thereto. A valve is connected to an outlet of the primary flow path to control the flow of fluid in response to the mass flow rate signal.

Abstract: To stabilize the active ingredients, a caffeine is incorporated into a solid pharmaceutical preparation comprising a dextromethorphan and a phenylpropanolamine. The pharmaceutical preparation may further comprise ibuprofen. The active ingredients may be further stabilized, in combination with the incorporation of the caffeine, by grouping and incorporating separately each or suitably combined plural of the active ingredients into different groups or by minimizing the amount of any reducing sugar such as lactose. The solid pharmaceutical preparation is practically valuable since decomposition of each active ingredient with the lapse of time is remarkably suppressed and the active ingredients are stabilized for a longer period of time.

Abstract: The present invention described provides a start microbial replication factor, as well as methods for assaying and using the start microbial replication factor. A start microbial replication factor can be used to stimulate the growth of bacteria in suspension or bound to a surface. Agents that inhibit or enhance a start microbial replication factor can also be identified. The present invention also describes processes to treat or control the growth of bacteria which are bound to surfaces. Both proliferation and metabolism of bacteria which are adhered to surfaces are independent of both time and nutrient supply. Growth of adherent bacteria is density dependent. The present invention also provides a process to predict when bacterial growth will exhibit rapid growth on a surface. The invention also provides strains of transformed bacteria and methods of using the bacteria strains to measure microbial growth in the presence of absence of a start microbial replication factor. The transformed bacteria have a bacterial reporter gene under the control of a promoter whose expression is coordinately regulated with cell growth.
