Title: Packaging compressible material
Inventor: BERG ANDERS
IPC: B65B9/20
Filed: 1984-07-19
Abstract: @ A method of packaging articles of a compressible material, such as cleaning sponges, according to which a blank of arbitrary length is cut such that its thickness corresponds to the thickness of the article and its width corresponds to the longest dimension of the article. The blank is folded lengthwise along its centre line once and is then again folded along the centre line of the once folded blank a second time. The blank, thus folded twice, is advanced through a piece of piping the outer jacket face of which serves as a shaping template for shaping a web of foil into a tubular cover enclosing the blank and the piece of piping coaxially. The tubular cover is brought along by the advancing twice-folded blank at the discharge end of the piece of piping and the twice-folded blank is cut while enclosed in the tubular cover, into pieces in such a manner that the length of the blank corresponds to the width of the article.

Title: Synthetic hiv-like peptides, their compositions and uses
Inventor: FORMOSO CARL
IPC: C07K19/00
Filed: 1989-12-15
Abstract: Highly immunoreactive regions of gp41 of HIV-1, gp32 of HIV-2 and p24 of HIV-1 were identified using synthetic peptides. Superior immunoassay performance is obtained with these peptides linked to carrier proteins as compared to use of the free peptides. Additional natural and unnatural variants of these reactive regions to define a set of peptides that, as cysteine-linked peptide-protein conjugates, provide optimal immunoassay performance including high immunoreactivity with HIV antibody positive samples, low reactivity with negative samples, high discrimination between positives and negatives, and high specificity. These peptide conjugates further permit simultaneous detection of HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies, and make possible rapid and simple test formats that require no instrumentation for detection of these antibodies.
