Abstract: This invention relates to recombinant-DNA-technology. Specifically this invention relates to new recombinant yeast strains transformed with xylose reductase and/or xylitol dehydrogenase enzyme genes. A yeast strain transformed with the xylose reductase gene is capable of reducing xylose to xylitol and consequently of producing xylitol in vivo. If both of these genes are transformed into a yeast strain, the resultant strain is capable of producing ethanol on xylose containing medium during fermentation. Further, the said new yeast strains are capable of expressing the said two enzymes. Xylose reductase produced by these strains can be used in an enzymatic process for the production of xylitol in vitro.

Abstract: An airborne Icing Hazard Detector for aircraft uses dual frequency radar beams which are transmitted into a cloud ahead of the aircraft. The reflected signals at each of the two frequencies are compared and processed to determine the presence, amount and location of regions of liquid water in the cloud. The presence of liquid water is determined as a result of liquid water attenuating the power of one of the signals a greater amount than the other signal, due to different attenuation characteristics of the two signals at the two frequencies. A temperature sensor provides ambient temperature information to determine if the detected liquid water is super-cooled. Upon detection of a predetermined amount of liquid water and the determination that it is super-cooled, an advance warning indication is provided to allow the pilot to avoid flying through the volumetric region of supercooled liquid water and risking ice formation on the aircraft.

Abstract: Residual echo from an echo canceler circuit is reduced by a variable attenuator that operates in response to a processing circuit which determines and adjusts an attenuation factor. The attenuation factor is determined by comparing relative levels of the send input signal, the receive input signal, and the error signal remaining after removal of an expected echo signal from the send input signal. The variable attenuator provides linear power attenuation of the error signal in order to reduce transmission of the residual echo signal and to eliminate the perception of coupling and decoupling of the telephone connection which occurs in known echo cancelers employing center clipping. A noise injection circuit provides a noise signal that is injected into the transmitted signal in inverse proportion to the attenuation of the error signal in order to provide a constant noise level in the transmitted signal as the error signal is variably attentuated.

Abstract: In known repeaters complying with CCITT Recommendation G.958, repeater sections are monitored by monitoring the transmission error probability of SDH signals (synchronous digital hierarchy) by means of parity evaluation. This requires the splitting-up and reconstitution of the SDH signal. Specific signal processing devices, such as multiplexers and demultiplexers, which are not needed for repetition of transmission signals as such, are required for this purpose, which causes a considerable power loss. In the repeater (RE) according to the invention, the transmission error probability is determined by comparison of a known word in the header part of an STM-N signal with a reference word. The transmission error probability is derived from the result of the comparison and fed via an error line (FL) to a central station. The transmission error probability can be transmitted in an STM-N signal in that it is effected via a repeater complying with CCITT Recommendation G.958 by using, for example, the service channel. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A universal planetary feeder (10) for feeding a wire (12) which includes an elongate hollow body defining a wire feed axis (14) and adapted for high speed rotation about the axis (14), and a pair of planetary rollers (26) associated with the body so as to be rotatable together with the body about the feed axis and which are mounted about the feed axis in mutually skewed respective orientations. The planetary rollers (26) define circumferential peripheral feed surfaces (28) spaced from each other about the feed axis (14) and are configured for simultaneous engagements with a wire (12) along preselected lines of contact. Each of the feed surfaces (28) is intersected at right angles by a plane which is offset from the feed axis by an offset angle. Each of the roller (26) is pivotable about an axis (30) normal to the feed axis so as to adjust the offset angle between the roller and the feed axis, thereby selecting a roller feed surface (28) profile parallel to the feed axis which corresponds to the external configuration of a wire selected from a range of wires having different diameter sizes. The arrangement provides a line of maximum contact between the roller surface and the selected wire. The pair of rollers (26) are simultaneously urging radially towards the feed axis (14) so as to apply a normal force to the wire (12) along the lines of contact between the roller feed surfaces (28) and the wire (12). When the body and rollers (26) are rotated about the feed axis (14), the rollers are apply to the wire (12) a generally tangential force along the lines of contact, thereby feeding the wire along the feed axis.

Abstract: A laryngeal mask airway is described which is fitted with an evacuation or drainage tube which passes through the back of the mask and terminates concentrically within an inflatable-cuff formation at the distal end of the mask. In the case of a laryngeal mask which relies on an inflatable ring to establish a seal around the laryngeal inlet, the inflatable-cuff formation results from sealed passage of the evacuation tube through the distal region of the inflatable ring, the distal end of which is centrally apertured and reentrantly folded into sealed junction with the distal end of the tube. When the mask is inflated, its distal end establishes a cuff, sealing the tube against the upper oesophageal sphincter. In the presently preferred embodiment, an auxiliary inflatable cuff is carried at the back side of the mask and, when inflated, establishes a cushioned reference between the evacuation tube and the posterior wall of the pharynx, enabling more effective sealing of the mask to the laryngeal inlet and of the drainage cuff to the oesophageal sphincter, in the circumstance of negative pressure applied to the evacuation tube.
