Abstract: The invention relates to a lipid particle forming matrix, characterized by, that from a defined system of at least two lipid components chosen from classes of different polarity, in which at least one of the lipid components is bilayer forming, discrete lipid particles are formed spontaneously when interacting with aqueous systems. Preferably at least one of the lipid components is amphiphatic and polar and one is nonpolar. These discrete particles are formed spontaneously from the matrix without any chemical or physical treatment or initiation. The lipid particle forming matrix can contain bioactive materials, chosen from the group of drugs, herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers, food and cosmetic ingredients or additives. The invention also relates to a process for the production of the matrix, the use of the lipid particle forming matrix as a carrier system for bioactive materials and pharmaceutical composition such as oral, rectal, nasal, vaginal, ocular or parenteral vehicles, creams, ointments, capsules and tablets containing the said lipid particle forming matrix and a drug.

Abstract: For the sliding transport of glowing material, which can be set down on at least one sliding shoe (6), through the furnace, the sliding shoe (6) has, for lateral guidance on the rails (5), an approximately U-shaped cross-section with downwardly projecting legs (10). On the side of the sliding shoe (6) and/or of the rail (5) facing the sliding plane, special sliding elements (12, 12a, 12b) are situated, which are designed in such a manner that wear and friction during movement of the sliding shoes are as low as possible. To this end, the sliding elements (12) have sliding surfaces, the lateral surfaces of which are rounded and/or downwardly inclined and/or the circumferential edges of which are assigned to one another at obtuse angles or - at least partially - have a circular shape. These conditions are present e.g. in the case of sliding elements with polygonal or circular surfaces, which can be arranged in one or more rows as well as in honeycomb structures. As in this case essential edges run obliquely in relation to the direction of movement and moreover no acute edge angle which is at risk of breakage is present, disturbances - e.g. on running over rail joints - do not have an effect simultaneously on the entire edge so that edge breakages can to a great extent be avoided. Provided between sliding-shoe web and glowing material support is a flowthrough duct, through which additional hot air is blown onto the points of the glowing material which are shielded from the main flow by rail (5) and sliding shoe (6).

Abstract: A method for operating a digital cellular mobile communication network for supplying mobile stations, located at continuously changing locations, from radio base stations via signal currents, uses a delay correction device which corrects for the delay differences of the signal currents produced by the radio propagation. The delay correction device consists of an adaptive transmission predistortion circuit which is arranged in the radio base station, it being possible for the distortion of the transmission predistortion circuit to be varied in accordance with the delay of the signals from the mobile station to the base station. As a result, the [lacuna] consuming relatively high power can be [lacuna] or greatly simplified or switched off, as a result of which the energy balance of the mobile station is improved and the production costs are lowered.

Abstract: The ellipsometer (1) and method involve directing polarized light for interaction with an optical system (2) under study at different angles of incidence from a single beam of light and detecting the light interacted with the optical system by reflection and/or transmission for each of a plurality of different angles of incidence. The simultaneous illumination of the optical system under study at a whole range of angles of incidence  alpha  from a single beam of light and the collection a large multiplicity of data from the different angles detected can be accomplished rapidly and easily and with accuracy without scanning and with only one ellipsometer. A lens (7) is used to focus the incoming light to provide the range of different angles of incidence  alpha . The range of angles is at least one or two degrees and preferably thirty degrees or more. A second lens (8) refocuses the interacted light to a linear, multi-element detector array (6) which extends in the plane of the incidence. Each of the detector elements (9) detects a narrow range of angles of incidence within the relatively wider range of angles of incidence of the illuminating beam. If the incident illuminating rays are polychromatic and a wavelength dispersing element (10) acts on the reflected rays each detector element of a square array (11) detects a narrow range of wavelengths and angles of incidence.

Abstract: A process for the manufacture of polyamino acids, particularly polyaspartic acid. A solid, particulate, amino acid is fluidized by agitation in a nitrogen atmosphere and heated to a temperature of at least 180 DEG  C. and maintained at that temperature for a sufficient amount of time to polymerize the amino acid and to drive off water from the heated bed. A degree of agitation sufficient to substantially fluidize the particles is provided and a particle size of no more than 150 microns is maintained throughout the process. The resultant anhydropolyamino acid is then hydrolyzed to a polyamino acid.

Abstract: L'objet de l'invention est de pouvoir déterminer, de façon appropriée, le moment du remplacement de fenêtres de protection de capteur d'arc, en utilisant une fonction allouée, à l'origine, à un capteur d'arc. Dans le système de surveillance d'une fenêtre de protection de capteur d'arc selon l'invention, une fenêtre (28) de protection de capteur d'arc inutilisée (nouvelle) est montée sur un capteur d'arc (20), et une surface (30) réfléchissante de référence est placée à une certaine distance de la surface frontale de la fenêtre (28) de protection de capteur d'arc. Dans ces conditions, un rayonnement laser (26) balaie la surface (30) réfléchissante de référence pour recevoir une lumière réfléchie (27). La lumière réfléchie étant stockée dans une mémoire en tant que première quantité de lumière reçue. Ensuite, la fenêtre de protection d'arc est utilisée telle quelle pour la soudure à l'arc, puis, comme c'est le cas avec la fenêtre de protection de capteur d'arc inutilisée, la lumière réfléchie (27) est reçue en provenance de la surface réfléchissante de référence (30). Cette quantité de lumière reçue étant stockée en tant que seconde valeur de lumière reçue. Le degré de contamination de la fenêtre (28) est défini sur la base de la première et de la seconde quantité de lumière reçue, et par conséquent le système peut déterminer si le moment de remplacer les fenêtres (28) de protection de capteur d'arc est venu ou non.

Abstract: In a method for the continuous casting of metals, especially aluminium or aluminium alloys, in a multi-mould casting installation, disturbances in the progress of casting are to be compensated for immediately so that optimum bar quality is obtained. This is achieved, according to the invention, by feeding in a pressurised gas and a lubricant underneath the hot top of each mould via at least one gas line, a regulating valve for setting the volume flow of gas, a downstream pressure sensor and a device for measuring the said volume flow being arranged in each gas line. It is furthermore envisaged, according to the invention, that the volume flow of gas in each gas line be automatically held constant at a predetermined value, irrespective of the respective filling level of the mould, in a first casting phase from the beginning of the filling of the mould with molten metal to a point in time following the entry of the metal strand into the water-cooled zone. During a second casting phase, the volume flow of gas in each gas line is automatically regulated in such a way that the gas pressure in each gas line is held constant at a predetermined value.
