Abstract: This invention relates to a reproducible system for the production of stable, genetically transformed maize cells, and to methods of selecting cells that have been transformed. One method of selection disclosed employs the Streptomyces bar gene introduced by microprojectile bombardment into embryogenic maize cells which were grown in suspension cultures, followed by exposure to the herbicide bialaphos. The methods of achieving stable transformation disclosed herein include tissue culture methods and media, methods for the bombardment of recipient cells with the desired transforming DNA, and methods of growing fertile plants from the transformed cells. This invention also relates to the transformed cells and seeds and to the fertile plants grown from the transformed cells and to their pollen.

Abstract: Apparatuses for stacking sheets, in particular paper or cardboard sheets, onto a pallet are known, which have a raisable and lowerable laying-down platform, on which the pallet rests during stacking, and an auxiliary stacking platform which can be moved into the region of the laying-down platform and serves for the intermediate stacking of the sheets during a pallet change. 
<??>According to the invention, the height of a pallet (7) is determined by means of a vertically moveable feeler element (skid 14) which can be laid onto the pallet surface and moved over the entirety thereof. To this end, the maximum upward deflection is measured during the movement of the feeler element over the pallet surface. The pallet height thus determined permits problem-free transfer of the intermediate stack (22) from the auxiliary stacking platform (8) onto a new pallet (7).

Abstract: An optical fibre (2) is fixed against a first face (4) of a prism (5). A coherent beam of optical radiation (7) is directed at the prism (5) such that a portion B propagates directly to the first face (4) while a second portion (A) propagates via total internal reflection at a second face (8). The interference of the two portions creates a refractive index grating in the fibre (2) at a wavelength longer than that of the radiation (7). The method provides a stable and simple method of sidewriting of waveguide gratings.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for transmitting a telefax message from a telefax terminal (TF) on the transmission side to one (RF) on the receiving side. Image elements arranged on originals are read and converted into electric image signals which are intermediately stored in a data area (NA). The number called and possibly other data concerning the address are stored in a data area (COMFIL) allocated to the data area (NA). A further data area (MEDI) also contains status information indicating original pages already transmitted or not transmitted and is updated during transmission by reception acknowledgment signals from the telefax terminal on the receiving side (RF). After an interruption, the image signal elements belonging to an original page which has not been fully transmitted and those of untransmitted pages are transmitted to the telefax terminal (RF) on the receiving side.

Abstract: The railway track structure has rails (6) arranged in pairs and, arranged transversely to the rails and connected thereto, sleepers (5) which bear with their end sections on a foundation plate (2) via elastic intermediate layers (7). Provided between the sleepers (5) are intermediate bodies (13) which are connected to the foundation plate (2). The intermediate bodies (13) which are made of concrete are designed as factory-finished elements. The cross-sectional contour of the intermediate bodies (13) is trapezoidal. The cheeks adjacent to the end sections of the sleepers (5) converge downwardly. The length of the intermediate bodies (13) is the same as or slightly smaller than the length of the sections of the sleeper (5) which project outwards seen from the rails (6). These intermediate bodies (13) are screwed together with the foundation plate. Elastic wedges (22) lie between the adjacent cheeks of the end sections of the sleepers (5) and the intermediate bodies (13). The intermediate bodies (13) are passed through by a vertical continuous bore, which lies in the central region, for receiving a fastening screw (9) which can be anchored in the foundation plate (2). The direct surrounding region of the vertical bore passing through the intermediate body (13) is sunk in relation to the surface of the intermediate body (13). <IMAGE>

Date Sep. 3, 1992.An alloy based on titanium and containing 0.5 to 30% by weight of magnesium, calcium or lithium is produced by vapor quenching to yield a metastable solid solution of solute in titanium. Exemplified alloys containing magnesium have age hardening or solution strengthening characteristics. Vapor quenching enables these alloys to be produced despite the differences in melting temperature between solute and solvent by separate vaporization of each of the species and mixing in the vapor phase. This method provides a route to achieving rapid solidification microstructures unobtainable by other rapid solidification methods. Preferred alloys comprise Ti with 1-15% or 3-7% by weight of magnesium. The alloys may contain other strengthening ingredients currently used in titanium alloys.

Abstract: The problem of unevenness of bottle temperatures at the entry of slow annealing furnace due to the variation of time periods necessary for respective bottles discharged from an IS bottle manufacturing machine to reach the annealing furnace has been solved by an equalization of said time periods. For this purpose, the bottle discharging order from the IS bottle manufacturing machine is controlled and use is made of two conveyors having different running speeds and/or direction of running. As a result, a precise temperature control in the Hot-End-Coating apparatus provided upstream from the annealing furnace can be carried out owing to the equalized temperatures of bottles entering into the annealing furnace. <IMAGE>
