Abstract: The DNA encoding the C140 cell surface receptor has been cloned and sequenced. The availability of this DNA permits the recombinant production of the C140 receptor which can be produced at cell or oocyte surfaces and is useful in assay systems both for the detection of substances which affect its activity, including agonists and antagonists. Further, the elucidation of the structure of the C140 receptor permits the design of agonist and antagonist compounds which are useful in these assays. The availability of the C140 receptor also permits production of antibodies specifically immunoreactive with the receptor per se or with specific regions thereof.

Abstract: The snowboard binding has a base element (3) fixed on the surface of the board and an instep and heel element. The heel element (14) is attached so that it can swivel backwards into a step-in position lying substantially parallel to the surface of the board. With the instep element (5,6) fixed, the boot (2) can be inserted into the binding. Operating devices (15) swivel the heel element forwards into a predefined closing position where it is held to support the boot and press against the instep element. The operating devices have a first strap (15) fixed either side on the front of the base element to engage round the heel element on the outside. A second strap fixed on the upper part of the heel element is connected to the first strap so that tensile force acting on the second strap slides the first strap along the outside of the heel element towards the free end and thus swivels the heel element into the closing position. The position of the heel element can be adjusted by changing the length of the first strap.

Abstract: A bone fixation device such as a screw, pin, staple, cable or anchor has a microtextured contact surface to enhance installation or gripping characteristics, preferably by providing directional or anisotropic engagement. A surface texture comprised of patterned microfeatures imparts a roughness or actual mechanical engagement that prevents loosening. In different embodiments the features resemble an array of microbumps or pyramids, or anisotropic features such as rasp teeth, shingles, or slanted cantilevered fiber/rods. The use of microbumps present a smaller surface area when moving, while providing full area contact after the surfaces have relaxed or decompressed; installation may be effected with low force, while high static or resting friction prevents disengagement. Features with directional asymmetry or angled suspension allow the textured surface to slide or deflect when the fixation device moves in one direction, while presenting a high resistance to torque or linear motion when moved in the other direction. Manufacturing is achieved with ion beams or directional treatment with energetic radiation, and regular arrays of the microfeatures may be produced as stationary surface growth phenomena without the use of pattern masks or mechanical contact. One manufacturing apparatus rotates the fixation device about a longitudinal axis while it is irradiated along an oblique axis. A bone pin may have centrally-directed spurs that allow a multi-segment fracture to be securely pinned without threading. An elastic fastener body such as a screw or pin can be pre-tensioned to place the bone under a torsional or compressive load, or introduce strain at the healing site. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides a heretofore unknown use for a aqueous reagent composition that serves as a universal rinse for performing and/or improving a variety of hematological analyses on automated analyzers. The universal rinse reagent comprises a phosphate buffer to maintain the rinse solution pH at from about 7.0 to about 7.6; a nonhemolytic nonionic surfactant, such as a Pluronic; an alkali metal salt, such as NaCl; antimicrobial and anti-oxidant compounds; and has an osmolality of about 285 to 305 mOsmol/kg. The universal rinse reagent composition is highly suitable for use in the rinse phases or cycles of all types of blood cell analysis methods and processes performed on semi- and fully-automated systems. The invention allows the replacement of mutiple and specific rinse solutions with the disclosed universal rinse to obtain accurate and acceptable results, independent of the types of blood cell analyses that are performed. The universal rinse is most particularly useful for automated systems having intricate hardware and a number of different input and output channels. The universal rinse composition serves to economize, streamline, and simplify the design and operation of such systems.

Abstract: An improved method and instrumentation for performing spinal surgery, including discectomy, interbody fusion and rigid internal fixation of the spine, from the lateral aspect of the spine is disclosed. The surgical procedure can be performed through a very small incision. The instrumentation of the present invention, all of which is inserted from a lateral position into the spine in the preferred embodiment, comprises a guide pin, a distractor, an extended outer sleeve, an inner sleeve, an adjustable drill and an implant driver. The distractor of the present invention is driven into the disc for spacing apart and realigning the adjacent vertebrae. It further functions as an alignment rod for inserting the extended outer sleeve which is a hollow tubular member capable of maintaining said spacing and alignment of two adjacent vertebrae and defines a protected space through which subsequent instruments which may include, but are not limited to, a drill and a diameter reducing inner sleeve may be passed, as well as a spinal implant. The remainder of the surgical procedure consisting of the removal of spinal material across the disc, fusion, and rigid internal stabilization via the implant may all be performed via the closed space within the extended outer sleeve. <IMAGE>
