Abstract: A thermally imageable element is disclosed. The element made up of a substrate and a composite layer structure composed of two layer coatings. Preferably, the first layer of the composite is composed of an aqueous developable polymer mixture containing a solubility inhibiting material and a photothermal conversion material which is contiguous to the hydrophilic substrate. The second layer of the composite is insoluble in the aqueous solution, is ink receptive, and is composed of one or more non-aqueous soluble polymers which are soluble or dispersible in a solvent which does not dissolve the first layer. The second layer may also contain a photothermal conversion material. Alternatively, the composite layer may be free of photothermal conversion material when thermal imaging is carried out using a thermal printing head.

Abstract: A liquid dispenser 1 comprises a housing 2 and a hook 3 for suspending the housing 2 from the rim of a lavatory bowl. A user inserts a sealed inverted reservoir bottle 6 into the housing 2, which breaks the seal. A porous pad 7 located in the housing 2 conveys liquid from the bottle 6 to a position within the stream of flushing water. <??>The pad 7 can be adjusted to accommodate different lavatories and has two guide slots which are engaged by two fingers in the housing which define two extreme positions of the pad 7. <??>To allow venting of the bottle 6, small vent holes 14 are formed in the pad 7. <??>The pad may alternatively be a solid plate of the same shape but having a number of raised holes or elongate slots. The plate may be have a venting post which mates with the mouth of the bottle 6. <??>Venting may be achieved by providing an aperture in the bottle. The top of the bottle may be provided with: a one-way valve; with a plug which seals the aperture, the housing having a pin which bears on the plug and releases it into the bottle; a breakable seal which covers the aperture, the housing being provided with a tube member which seals the aperture; or a removable tab which covers the aperture and which is broken away from the bottle prior to insertion, either by the user or, automatically, by a projection within the housing. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A chimeric transactivator comprises a transcription activation domain, a repressor protein DNA binding domain and the bacterial DNA gyrase B subunit. A target gene is operatively linked to operator DNA sequences recognized by the repressor binding domain. The addition of the antibiotic coumermycin results in a coumermycin-switched dimerization of the transactivator, which then binds to operator DNA sequences and activates transcription of the target gene. The addition of novobiocin switches off expression of the target gene by abolishing coumermycin-induced dimerization of the transactivator.
