Patent EP-1259148-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KOHLRUSS GREGOR
IPC: A47K7/02
Filed: 2001-03-02
Abstract: The invention relates to a skin cleaning device that consists of a textile structure and that has lipophobic fibers or lipophobically finished fibers. Due to the lipophobic fibers and/or lipophobically finished fibers contained in it the inventive skin cleaning device is especially adapted to the cleaning requirements of dry skin since the fat absorption capacity of the skin cleaning device is limited by to the fibers. As a result, less fat is removed from the skin during the cleaning process as compared to conventional textile cleaning devices.

Abstract: The present invention provides a polyethylene glycol-conjugated
erythropoietin (PEG-conjugated EPO) prepared by
PEG conjugation on the lysine residue at position 52 of
native erythropoietin (native EPO). In order to achieve
more sustained efficacy without losing physiological
activities of native EPO, a glycoprotein rich in sugar
chains, there has been a need to develop a PEG-conjugated
EPO with significantly sustained efficacy by introducing a
controlled number of PEG molecules at controlled positions.
This PEG-conjugated EPO addresses such a need and provides
more sustained efficacy.

Title: Apparatus for parallel detection of the behaviour of mechanical micro-oscillators
Inventor: ROGER JEAN-PAUL
IPC: G01N27/00
Filed: 2001-11-05
Abstract: The invention concerns an apparatus for parallel detection of the behaviour of mechanical micro-oscillators interacting with the sample (21). The amplitude and the phase of resonance of micro-oscillators (12) are measured with optical means. The invention is characterised in that a source (1) is active during a fraction 1/n of the period (n being an integer) and of variable phase p/n of the period (p being an integer). Interferences are produced between light beams generated by reflection of incident light beams (7) and (8) on the micro-oscillators (12). Periodically the micro-oscillators (12) are displaced by means. The value of the parameter p (p being an integer) is varied and N elementary measurements are integrated to obtain a measurement representing each of the values of p. The phase and amplitude of each micro-oscillator (12) are calculated on the basis of the representative data obtained for each value of p and this for a large number of accumulations. The invention is applicable in the field of nanotechnologies.

Abstract: The invention comprises a method for storing more than
movies on a disk, e. g. descriptions about the recorded
essence (the metadata). 
As TV-services transmit stock-, warrant- and investmentfund-rates
via their teletext-pages, together with
fundamental and technical stock-information-data, with the
help of this metadata the user should have an easy access to
the planning of his personal financial investments. 
The invention comprises the preparation of stock-trade
signals to the consumer. Apart from that, the user can get
easy access to the daily and long-time development about his
favorite stock and investment-funds values. 
     A problem to be solved by the invention is to find the base
for the evaluation of trade-signals, which will be a
resident metadata-archive stored in a digital recorder. 
The local storage-management will generate stock-exchange
metadata-descriptors with a special link to a software-implementation,
which can be executed on the digital
