Granted: 2005-01-18
Abstract: A thermoplastic resin-coated aluminum alloy plate having so high a processing adhesion that the laminated thermoplastic resin layer is not separated therefrom even when the plate is subjected to a severe forming process in which the plate is deep-drawn, stretched and then ironed. A process and an apparatus for producing the same are also disclosed. An aluminum alloy plate is treated with an alkali solution and an acid solution in order so as to put the surface of the plate in a special condition. The resultant plate is subjected to anodic electrolysis using a direct current in an acid solution containing one or more of inorganic acid, such as sulfuric acid and an organic acid, such as carboxylic acid or hydroxy carboxylic acid. Alternatively, the resultant plate is subjected to a treatment using hot water of above 60.degree.C, boiling water, or water vapor so as to form a uniform hydration oxide film of 2-10 mm in thickness. The alloy plate is coated with a thermoplastic resin. This enables the thermoplastic resin-coated aluminum alloy plate to have so high a processing adhesion that permits the plate to withstand a severe forming process.

Title: Purified proteins, recombinant dna sequences and processes for controlling the ripening of coffee plants
Inventor: MOISYADI ISTEFO
IPC: C12N15/11
Filed: 1997-08-11
Granted: 2008-01-15
Abstract: The invention provides purified proteins, DNA sequences that code on expression therefore and recombinant DNA molecules, including hosts transformed therewith for transforming coffee plants to suppress the expression of enzymes necessary for ethylene synthesis. The DNA sequences and recombinant DNA molecules are characterized in that they code on expression for the enzymes ACC synthase or ACC oxidase that are elements of the pathway for ethylene biosynthesis in coffee plants. Coffee plants are transformed with vectors containing ACC synthase and/or with ACC oxidase DNA sequences that code on expression for the respective mRNA that is antisense to the mRNA for ACC synthase and/or ACC oxidase. The resulting antisense mRNA binds to the respective ACC synthase and/or ACC oxidase mRNA, thereby inactivating the mRNA encoding one or more enzymes in the pathway for ethylene synthesis. The described DNA sequences can also be used to block synthesis of ACC synthase or ACC oxidase using co-suppression. The result in either event is that the transformed plants are incapable of synthesizing ethylene, though other aspects of their metabolism is not affected.

Abstract: A motion vector predictive encoding method, a motion vector decoding method, a predictive encoding apparatus, a decoding apparatuses, and storage media storing motion vector predictive encoding and decoding programs are provided, thereby reducing the amount of generated code with respect to the motion vector, and improving the efficiency of the motion-vector prediction. If the motion-compensating mode of the target small block to be encoded is the global motion compensation, the encoding mode of already-encoded small blocks is the interframe coding mode, and if the motion-compensating mode of the already-encoded small blocks is the global motion compensation, then the motion vector of the translational motion model is determined for each pixel of the already-encoded small blocks, based on the global motion vector (steps S1-S5). Next, the representative motion vector is calculated as the predicted vector, based on the motion vector of each pixel of the already-encoded small blocks (step S6). Finally, the prediction error is calculated for each component of the motion vector and each prediction error is encoded (steps S7 and S8).

Abstract: An apparatus and method for determining the concentration of alcohol present in a gaseous mixture wherein an electronic device employing a fuel cell (24) determines the concentration of al- cohol present in the gaseous mixture is disclosed. In particular, the device may be used to determine a person's sobriety by determining alcohol con- centration in a breath sample exhaled by the same person. To determine alcohol concentration, the device must be able to accurately determine the volume of breath in the breath sample. The de- vice controls the volume of the breath sample by measuring the pressure of the breath flow through the device and, in response to the pressure sensed by pressure sensor (16), electronically controlling (22) a valve (20) diverting a portion of the breath flow into the fuel cell (24). Invention functions as sobriety interlock (40) for a machine where the machine remains disabled unless the operator is first determined to have an alcohol concentra- tion below a predetermined level.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for recovering medicaments or active ingredients from preparations, and from the precursors or wastes thereof, especially in the form of a flat starting material. The invention uses film provided with an adhesive, and a material containing an active ingredient. The starting material is produced with surface areas preferably ranging between 5 and 50 cm2. The starting material comprising a basic active ingredient is introduced into an aqueous extraction liquid having a pH range between 7 and 1, and the starting material comprising an acidic active ingredient is introduced into an aqueous extraction liquid having a pH range between 7 and 13. The extraction liquid is permitted to act until the supporting film detaches from the laminate or until the active ingredient detaches from the supporting film during which a solution containing active ingredients is formed. The extracted medicament or active ingredient is isolated by precipitating it out of the solution containing active ingredients.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of an enantiomerically pure R-NSAID for the manufacture of a medicament for inflammation in an animal, wherein the medicament provides a dose of more than 2.5 milligrams per kilogram of the animal's body weight and wherein the R- NSAID is R-flurbiprofen. The anti-inflammatory action of R-NSAIDs is due to their ability to interfer e with the biosynthesis of COX-2 by inhibiting COX-2 mRNA synthesis, rather than by just blocking the action of the enzyme itself. In order to effect the inhibition of COX-2 mRNA synthesis, the R-NSA ID must be present at relatively high doses. Because the R-NSAID is selective in its action, that is it does not inhibit either COX-1 mRNA synthesis or the COX-1 enzyme itself, it can be administered in t he required high doses because the tissue protective effects of prostaglandins made through t he COX-1 pathway are not interfered with.
