Title: Lymphocyte-activating factor, method for the preparation thereof and method for the proliferation of antibody-forming lymphocytes and production of antibody using the same
Inventor: TAKAHASHI NAOMMY
IPC: C12N5/07
Filed: 1990-06-27
Abstract: A novel lymphocyte-activating factor having an activity for stimulating proliferation and antibody-production of lymphocytes can be derived from small-intestine mucosal epithelia of a mammalian animal such as cattle by mashing the mucosal epithelia, removing the solid matter from the mush, dialyzing the extract, and precipitating the effective fraction in the undialyzed extract by salting-out. The lymphocyte-activating factor can be used for the production of an antibody against pathogenic viruses by culturing lymphocytes inoculated with the virus in a medium containing the factor.

Abstract: An electronic graphic system is suitable for use in modifying data defining an initial high resolution image. In the system data relating to a user defined low resolution control image controls the combining of other image data with data defining a low resolution representation of said initial image. In this way the system produces data representing a low resolution combined image which is continuously displayed on a display monitor. Once desired modifications have been achieved by the user to the image displayed on the display monitor, the low resolution control image data is converted into a high resolution representation thereof. The high resolution control image is used to control the combining of the said other image data with said initial high resolution image data to produce data defining a modified high resolution image. the said other image data may be a user defined color or another image for example.

Abstract: The implant supporting the patella consists of a metal support element (1) and a disc (8) as guide element for the patella on the artificial patella surface of a knee-joint prosthesis. Support element (1) and disc (8) are connected to one another in a mutually rotatable manner. The new implant makes it possible that, upon flexing and extending of the knee, on the one hand the patella follows the "traction direction" of the muscles acting on it and, on the other hand, the implant with its bead-like raised area (10) slides in the "valley bottom" of the patella surface of a knee-joint prosthesis. In this way, inadmissible friction of the implant on the femoral part of the joint prosthesis and unnatural loading of the muscle and ligament apparatus are avoided. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Method and apparatus for in vitro culture of cells in culture medium to produce a viable cell mass of cell number greater than the initial cell number, wherein a cell mass of particular cell number is cultured in a first oxygen-permeable culture sub-compartment to an increased cell number, and then aseptically transferred directly from the first sub-compartment to a next serial culture sub-compartment providing additional medium and/or culture space for further growth and reproduction to produce a viable cell mass of still higher cell number. Continued transfers are made, if necessary, to successive serial culture sub-compartment until a viable cell mass of desired cell number is attained, particularly one useful for seeding of a production-scale culture system.

Inventor: SALAMA K UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON
IPC: C04B35/653
Filed: 1990-02-08
Abstract: A superconductor material having a current density, J, of from about 30,000 to about 85,000 amps/cm2 at zero magnetic field and 77 DEG  K. is disclosed. The 123 superconductor is of the formula L1Ba2Cu3O6+ delta  wherein L is preferably yttrium. The process comprises compacting the solid state reaction product of L1Ba2Cu3O and then sintering the reaction product at a temperature between about 40 DEG C. to about 90 DEG  C. below its melting point, i.e., for Y1Ba2Cu3O6+ delta  at a temperature of approximately 940 DEG  C. The composition is then heated in a preheated chamber maintained at approximately 1090 DEG  C. to about 1,200 DEG  C. (approximately 1,100 DEG  C. for Y1Ba2Cu3O6+ delta ) until it has been decomposed, and is then rapidly cooled to a temperature between about 10 DEG  C. to about 30 DEG  C. above its melting point, i.e. for Y1Ba2Cu3O6+ delta  a temperature of 1030 DEG  C. and then is control cooled at a rate of 1 DEG  C./hr until it reaches a temperature of about 20 DEG  C. to about 40 DEG C. below its melting point, i.e., for Y1Ba2Cu3O6+ delta  a temperature of 980 DEG  C. The composition is steadily held at this temperature for at least eight hours, and then cooled to a temperature of approximately 400 DEG  C. below its melting point (for Y1Ba2Cu3O6+ delta  approximately a temperature of 600 DEG  C.). The material is then slowly cooled by another 200 DEG  C. and is then annealed in oxygen.

Abstract: Le récepteur (100) comprend un amplificateur (230) d'amplification d'un signal HF reçu. Un circuit à commande de gain automatique (AGC) (220) commande le gain de l'amplificateur, en réponse à un signal de commande (81), en modifiant le point de polarisation de l'amplificateur. Un circuit indicateur de force du signal reçu (RSSI) fournit le signal de commande (80), lequel est proportionnel à la force du signal reçu. Au fur et à mesure que la force du signal reçu est augmentée, le gain de l'amplificateur est diminué (et vice versa). Le signal reçu ne passe pas par l'amplificateur lorsque le gain de l'amplificateur est réduit à un niveau seuil.
