Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing nicotinic acid,
which comprises directly subjecting a mixture of 3-methylpyridine, oxygen,
and water to a vapor phase oxidation in the presence of a catalyst
consisting of, as active ingredients, vanadium oxide (V 2 O 5 ) and transition
metal oxide both of which are supported on a carrier, to give the nicotinic
acid, wherein crystal size of the active ingredients on the surface of the
carrier is controlled in a range of from 40 to 200 nm through use of
transition metal oxide. 
     The present invention further relates to a catalyst used in the oxidation. 
     In the method according to the present invention, the nicotinic acid
can be obtained in a higher conversion and a higher selectivity. Therefore,
the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

Abstract: Conventional lenses for DVD/CD compatible
writing/reading are liable to CD jitter deterioration
due to phase shifts in a central area. Setting a
corresponding base material thickness of an intermediate
area to greater than 1.2 mm which is the base material
thickness of the CD makes it possible to reduce jitter
deterioration due to phase shifts and eliminate level
differences between the central area and peripheral area,
facilitate manufacturing of processing metalmolds,allow
extension of a life, which in turn makes it possible to
use glass as a lens material, realize cost reduction or
provide a system with higher precision and higher
reliability.

Abstract: The compressor disc has blades (1) secured to it which preferably have a small height/airfoil length ratio and during compressor operation these blades subjected to intrinsic vibrations and to a force on the suction side (2) at a distance from the shock front (10) forming the front edge (3) of the blade. An initially laminar boundary layer flow of air is converted into a turbulent boundary layer flow in an oscillating manner at a transition point (12) located upstream from the shock front on the shock side of the blade. A fixing means (4) for the boundary layer transition point is provided upstream from the working region of the shock front and extends perpendicular to the boundary layer flow, in order to restrict the oscillation of this transition point and therefore restrict the vibration amplifying effect on the shock front. The fixing means is formed by an elongated rough surface region comprising a fine particle material embedded in a raised binder layer or a coarse particle material embedded in a binder layer which is flush with the blade surface, by raised profiles with a triangular cross-section integrally formed from the blade surface, by at least one groove extending transverse to the boundary layer flow direction or by bores drilled into the blade.

Abstract: An LCD module (1) principally has an LCD (1a), a
backlight module (1b) including an LED section (1c), an
optical waveguide, and a light reflector. The side faces of
the backlight module (1b) are provided with fixing sections
(1e,1d) to mount and fix the LCD module (1) to a case (2) by
fastening screws. Since the LCD's display section (1f) has
a smaller outward form than the LCD, the LCD module is fixed
to the case using the fixing sections on the side faces of
the backlight module so as not to affect the LCD display
section. This enables a space for packaging other
functions to be secured, the frame to be narrowed, and the
device to be miniaturized without the need for any special
attaching parts.

Abstract: Errors in data retrieved from a storage medium are verified by retrieving a
plurality of data blocks from the storage medium. A data set having data from multiple
data blocks is selected, where the data set includes a plurality of rows corresponding to
the data bocks and a row has data from a data block corresponding to the row. One or
more error correction codes (ECCs) are retrieved from the storage medium, where the
one or more ECCs correspond to the data set. A plurality of check sums are retrieved
from the storage medium, where a check sum corresponds to a data block. Data blocks
retrieved from the storage medium having errors are identified using the check sums
corresponding to the data blocks. When the number of data blocks identified as having
errors is greater than the number of ECCs for the data set, a first set of rows in the data
set corresponding to the data blocks identified as having errors is selected, where the
number of rows in the first set of rows is equal to the number of ECCs for the data set and
less than the number of data blocks identified as having errors. Data for the first set of
rows are generated using the ECCs for the data set, and the rows corresponding to the
data blocks identified as having errors are verified based on the generated data for the
first set of rows.

Abstract: The present invention is based on the capacity of the Olfactory Ensheathing Glia (OEG) to foster axonal regeneration in the adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS). This specific capacity is probably due to a combination of several factors, such as the molecular composition of cellular membrane and/or the capacity to secrete some molecules; combined with the capacity to reduce glial scar and accompany new growing axon in the damaged CNS. We have developed immortalised cell lines from primary human OEGs. The cells were cultured from post-mortem human tissue from donors and immortalised using a reversible system. Some of these OEG human clonal cell lines were selected by their ability to promote axonal regeneration from adult rat retinal ganglion neurons in a similar fashion to primary OEGs. These cell lines, alone or in pharmaceutical compositions comprising these cells, may be used to repair neuronal damage in the CNS.
