Abstract: Process for surface activation and/or devulcanisation of sulphur-vulcanised rubber particles. In order to break the sulphur bridges and to reduce the sulphur, the rubber particles are treated in a biotechnological manner in a medium with mesophilic anaerobic and/or optionally anaerobic and/or microaerophilic bacteria and/or with one or more enzyme systems of such bacteria. The thus treated, activated rubber particles show improved vulcanisation properties, in comparison with non-treated rubber particles, a nd permit the production of better quality articles.

Abstract: Therapeutic methods and microorganisms therefore are provided. The microorganisms are designed to accumulate in immunoprivileged tissues and cells, such as in tumors and other proliferating tissue and in inflamed tissues, compared to other tissues, cells and organs, so that they exhibit relatively low toxicity to host organisms. The microorganisms also are designed or modified to result in leaky cell membranes of cells in which they accumulate, resulting in production of antibodies reactive against proteins and other cellular products and also permitting exploitation of proliferating tissues, particularly tumors, to produce selected proteins and other products. Methods for making tumor specific antibodies and also methods of making gene products encoded by the microorganism as well as antibodies reactive therewith are provided.

Title: Remote sensing electric field exploration system
Inventor: BARRINGER ANTHONY R
IPC: G01V3/165
Filed: 2004-10-22
Abstract: An airborne exploration system used with an aircraft for shallow and de ep exploration for oil and gas, mineral deposits and aquifers. The survey syste m uses natural electromagnetic EM fields as an energy source. The exploration system includ es a pair of aerodynamic housing pods adapted for mounting on wing tips of the aircraft. The housing pods include electric field sensors with three orthogonal electric dipoles oriented along an X, Y and Z axis. An optional third set of orthogonal electric dipoles can be mounted in the tail of the aircraft. The field sensors are electrically attached to angular motion detectors mounted inside housing pods. The motion detectors are used for compensating for errors caused by angular motion of the aircraft when in the presence of strong electric field gradients. The system also includes a total field magnetometer mounted in the aircraft. The various filtered outputs of the magnetometer are used to provi de phase and amplitude references for the similarly filtered and angular motion corrected outputs of the electric field sensors. The electric f eld data when normalized and phase referenced against the magnetic field data provides valuable geological and geophysical information related to the subsurface flow of telluric currents.
