Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a vector system that allows one to induce expression of therapeutically relevant genes in mammalian cells. Such a vector system may be useful for medicine and in the pharmaceutical industry. A vector comprises base structures suitable for expression in mammalian cells as well as either the whole of or parts of the gene promoter of human Major Vault Protein (MVP), also known as LRP (Lung Resistance Protein) as well as a gene encoding a therapeutic protein or non-translated RNA. As the MVP promoter is inducible by therapy (for example, but not limited to, chemotherapy or hyperthermia), the vector system provides combinations of therapeutic methods with gene therapy in a controlled fashion, resulting in more efficient treatment of tumor diseases.

Abstract: Beer brewing pre-masher comprising an inlet opening (9) with a turbulence generator (15), is new.  Beer brewing pre-masher comprises an inlet opening (9) with a turbulence generator (15) at the periphery of the grist or crushed malt flow. The turbulence generator (15) directs the mash water with a tangential component relative to the grist flow circumference. A first guide surface of the inlet opening extends into the grist flow, deflecting the mash water with a tangential component. This lies on a notionally-spiral, and optionally-conical, surface about the center (3a) of the casing extending in the direction of grist flow. A second guide surface (8) at the inlet, deflects the mash water with a radial component, relative to the center (3a). The width (D6) of the descender upstream of the inlet opening (9) is greater than the downstream width (D7), and the second guide surface makes a transition between diameters. A mixing section (7) with baffles turning and mixing the flow, lies downstream of the inlet opening, its length being twice its internal diameter. The inlet opening is a nozzle accelerating the mean mash velocity to 2 m/s. A bluff body baffle (13) for the grist flow is located centrally in the inlet opening.

Abstract: An actuator position control system for brush-type DC motors. The system includes a sensing inductor, amplifier, central control unit (microprocessor), and motor driver. The system utilizes the differential signal di/dt to indicate the falling edges of commutation spikes in the motor current profile. An inductor is selected as the signal sensor, because voltage drops across the inductor are directly proportional to di/dt. The voltage drop, L(di/dt), across the inductive sensor is input to the amplifier, amplified, and then sent to the microprocessor. The microprocessor reads the output pulses from the amplifier and compares the pulse count to an input command signal. The microprocessor then sends shaft position control information to the motor driver.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for deletion of antibiotic resistance and/or plasmid stabilisation. The invention includes the steps of constructing a vector comprising an antibiotic resistance gene surrounded by a direct repeat sequence gene. This direct repeat gene may be an essential gene or a Rek-sequence. In the latter case the essential gene with a suitable promoter is presented in the vector. A host cell is transformed with the vector obtained, followed by deletion of the essential chromosomal gene in the host cell and deletion of the antibiotic resistance gene in the vector in the cell. The essential gene infA is preferred. The invention also relates to a method of stable maintenance of a vector in a host cell, a method of producing DNA in the cell and a method of producing amino acids, preptides and proteins in the cell. Further, the invention is directed to transformed host cells from which the chromosomal essential gene has been deleted and which comprise a vector containing the corresponding essential gene and possibly also one or more genes X of interest. The vector carries no gene for antibiotic resistance. The use of vector DNA obtained from the host for the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition for gene therapy such as a vaccine is also covered. Bacteria carrying the vector with appropriate genes X can be used for large scale production of compounds as directed by the gene product(s) of such gene(s).
