Abstract: The invention relates to the production of L-prolyl-L-m-sarcolysyl-L-p-fluorophenylalanine and to the lower alkyl ester and/or acid addition salts thereof. To this end L-p-fluorophenylalanine presenting a protected carboxyl group is reacted with L-m-sarcolysine presenting a protected amino group, preferably during cooling in an anhydrous medium and in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. This yields L-m-sarcolysyl-L-p-fluorophenylalanine presenting a protected amino group and a protected carboxyl group. The amino protective group is then split off, resulting in the formation of L-m-sarcolysyl-L-p-fluorophenylalanine presenting a protected carboxyl group. The resulting product is reacted with proline presenting a protected amino group in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, so that L-prolyl-L-m-sarcolysyl-L-p-fluorophenylalanine with a protected amino group is obtained. Finally the amino protective group is split off and possibly the lower alkyl ester group split off and/or the resulting compound transformed into an acid addition salt.

Abstract: This invention relates to confectioneries, and particularly reduced fat chocolates comprising an admixture of non-fat chocolate ingredients in accordance with specified particle size distribution formulae, and the method of preparation thereof. Controlling particle packing, using continuous particle size ingredient distributions and discrete, bi-modal particle size ingredient distributions, has been shown to be useful for achieving highly concentrated chocolate suspensions, having reduced fat concentrations and suitable rheology for moulding, enrobing or extrusion. The methods of this invention are also useful for providing conventional chocolates (25% or greater fat content) having good rheological characteristics, while reducing cocoa butter usage. Specified particle size distributions are achieved through the selective blending of fine, medium and coarse ingredients. The continuous particle size distributions and bi-modal particle size distributions provide several parameters for manipulating the rheological properties of chocolate.

Abstract: Transmission power in a frequency-hopping radio system that transmits packets from a sending radio unit to a receiving radio unit, wherein each packet includes an address designating the receiving radio unit, is controlled by measuring received signal strength of packets whose addresses were successfully received in the receiving radio unit, regardless of whether other portions of the respective packets were successfully received. An average signal strength value is generated from the received signal strength measurements. The mathematical difference between the average signal strength value and a target value associated with the receiving radio unit is then determined and used as a basis for deciding whether to send a power control message from the receiving radio unit to the sending radio unit. In order to provide a hysteresis in the power control process, a power control message is sent from the receiving radio unit to the sending radio unit if the mathematical difference is greater than a first decision boundary, or if the mathematical difference is less than a second decision boundary. The power control message may itself include the mathematical difference which, when received by the sending radio unit, is used as a basis for determining a transmission power level adjustment amount. The target value, against which the average signal strength value is compared, may be based on the receiver sensitivity adjusted to account for implementation losses and other inaccuracies.
