Abstract: The use of fumaric acid derivatives (I) (including their mixtures) is claimed for the production of a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of mitochondrial diseases. - ACTIVITY : Antiparkinsonian; neuroprotective; nootropic; ophthalmological; antiinflammatory; cerebroprotective. - MECHANISM OF ACTION : Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) stimulant. SDH is a component of mitochondrial membranes, which catalyzes the conversion of succinic acid into fumaric acid (as part of the citrate cycle) and is associated with oxidative phosphorylation, deficiency of which causes mitochondrial diseases. In tests in fibroblasts, dimethyl fumarate (Ia) at 0.75 m equivalents/l increased SDH activity 838%.

Abstract: Novel 1,2-dioxetanes with improved chemiluminescent properties, such as signal intensity, S/N ratio, T½, -etc. are provided by spiroadamantyl 1,2-dioxetanes, wherein the remaining carbon atom of the ring bears an alkoxy, aryloxy, or arylalkoxy substituent, and either a phenyl or naphthyl ring, this aromatic ring bearing, at the meta position on the phenyl group, or a nonconjugated position on the naphthyl ring, an OX moiety wherein X is an enzyme-cleavable group, which when removed from the dioxetane, leaves the oxyanion which decomposes with chemiluminescence, the aryl ring further bearing an electron-active substituent Z. The nature and placement of the Z substituent, at a position not adjacent the point of attachment to the dioxetane ring, strongly influences the properties of the dioxetane. Assays, as well as kits for the performance of those assays, include the dioxetane, an enzyme capable of cleaving the X group, and in certain cases, membranes and chemiluminescent enhancement agents.

Abstract: A syringe pump has a motor 9 rotating a leadscrew 8 to drive a plunger head actuator 10 along it. The head actuator 10 engages the plunger 35 of a syringe 3 and moves the plunger along the syringe barrel 30 to dispense medication. An optical encoder 20 mounted on the leadscrew 8 is rotated by the motor 9 to produce a pulse output. A control unit 11 times the interval between the pulses and compares these timings with a stored value representative of a predetermined multiple of the minimum time. If the head actuator 10 is obstructed, the speed of rotation of the motor 9 is slowed and the time interval between pulses rises. When this exceeds the stored value, the control unit 11 stops the drive to the head actuator 10 and generates an alarm. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A photodiode (1) in a conventional photodetector-pixel architecture is supplied with a shunt diode (2) connected to a control voltage (Vc). Suitable selection of the constant or time-varying control voltage (Vc) allows a combination of linear and non-linear, preferably logarithmic illumination response of the photodiode (1), resulting in a high dynamic photodetecting range of more than five orders of magnitude. The properties of the shunt diode (2) and the control voltage (Vc) can be chosen such that the resulting dark current matches the dark current of the photodiode (1), which becomes independent of voltage for high temperatures. This enables photodetecting with a sufficient dynamic range at higher temperatures than possible with conventional photodetectors. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides for methods of using guide wires adapted for passage across a heart valve. The guide wires have an increased diameter and a shorter, relatively floppy distal tip; the increased diameter providing improved pushability to facilitate positioning in a blood jet and passage through a heart valve. The distal tip comprises a section of rectangular cross-section that, in conjunction with the decreased tip length, causes the distal tip to vibrate, or “dance”, when positioned within a blood jet at the outlet of a heart valve. This vibratory motion may be used to position the distal tip within the blood jet, thus facilitating passage through the valve without damage to leaflets of the valve or emboli generation.
