Granted: 2002-03-07
Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of regulating TNF activity indirectly by regulating the activity or concentration of TNF receptor releasing enzyme (TRRE). Preferably, the TRRE activity is regulated local to the site of the condition to be treated. In the case of diseases associated with elevated levels of TNF, such as rheumatoid arthritis, TRRE is administered to the site of inflammation in an amount sufficient to decrease the local levels of TNF. In the case of diseases, such as cancer, that benefit from increased levels of TNF, the level of TRRE is decreased at the disease site.

Title: Fm receiver with noise suppression during rayleigh faded received signals
Inventor: EASTMOND BRUCE CHARLES
IPC: H04B1/10
Filed: 1986-11-03
Granted: 1990-04-26
Abstract: An improved FM communication system is disclosed in which noise bursts and pops in the audio output of the receiver, due to weak and Rayleigh-faded signals, are minimized by selectively attenuating the audio signal in the receiver. The amount and rate of attenuation for the receiver noise reduction circuits is determined by a control signal derived form either the average discriminator noise at frequencies above 3 kHz, or from a received RF signal strength indicator, or a combination of both. The audio output is attenuated during weak signals or Rayleigh fades only when the attenuation control signal increases above a predetermined signal-to-noise ratio threshold. Also described are further improvements to noise attenuation devices used in combination with the receiver noise reduction circuits to enhance audio quality in particular applications, e.g., FM repeater systems which may incorporate multiple transmitters in a simulcast configuration.

Granted: 1997-03-27
Abstract: An ammonia-free reducer is added to cupric ions to achieve reduction to cuprous hydroxide in a process for the deposition of metallic copper on a catalytically activated surface by rapidly reducing cupric ions in aqueous solution to cuprous hydroxide, without substantial reduction to elemental or metallic copper, and thereafter effecting controlled disproportionation of the resultant cuprous hydroxide to bring about the deposition of metallic copper. The ammonia-free reducer is preferably hydroxylamine or its salts in the presence of a water soluble alkali metal- or alkaline earth metal- hydroxide, more preferably sodium hydroxide. The process of reduction of cupric ions is further effected by adding to the solution an antiagglomerating agent for controlling the dispersion of the cuprous hydroxide, preferably a polyol such as sorbose or invert sugar. The process of disproportionation of the cuprous hydroxide is further effected by adding an activator comprising a hydroxycarboxylic acid or salt thereof, preferably citric acid or malic acid with sulfuric acid, to bring about the deposition of metallic copper principally on the catalytically activated surface, wherein the hydroxycarboxylic acid or salt activator is present in solution in an amount no greater than about one mole per mole of cuprous hydroxide.
