Abstract: A system for detecting Barrett's metaplasia utilizes an illumination and imaging probe at the end of a catheter. The probe illuminates the wall of the esophagus and returns reflected light to be processed to provide a visual indication of the color of the esophageal wall. The position of the probe along the length of the esophagus is also measured to allow a medical practitioner to determine the location of the transition from the pink stomach lining to the white esophageal lining.

Date Apr. 3, 1997A method of cash card billing with the aid of parking or pay meters when parking a vehicle. A pay meter system is provided which includes a plurality of pay meters, wherein each pay meter constitutes an independent operative unit and is equipped with a cash card reader. A person parking a vehicle finds a meter and with the aid of the cash card reader feeds into the pay meter information from the cash card relating at least to the cash card account number. When the cash card has been read by the first pay meter (BA1) the meter stores the account number (KN) and the parking commencement time (IT) in a memory (BA1 MEM) that is part of the first pay meter. The first pay meter (BA1) issues a parking ticket on which a transaction number (TN) and parking commencement time (IT) are recorded in a machine-readable form. When terminating the parking period, the parking ticket is read in a second pay meter (BA2), which may be any chosen pay meter in the pay meter system. The second pay meter (BA2) stores the transaction number (TN) and parking commencement time (IT) read by the meter from the parking ticket, together with the parking termination time (UT), in a memory (BA2 MEM) that is part of the second meter. The contents of memories BA1 MEM and BA2 MEM are transferred to the memory of a central computer that calculates the parking fee and bills the cash card account number.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for stabilizing the flavor of a fermented malt beverage, most particularly a beer, by the addition of an oxoaldehyde reductase enzyme, the fermented malt beverage prepared by such a method, and to the use during the brewing process of oxoaldehyde reductase enzymes from naturally occuring sources, including those produced by yeasts, to stabilize the flavor of the resulting beer product and to produce a beer having a stable flavor. The invention also relates to microorganisms, particularly yeasts, which have been specifically modified, selected, or genetically engineered to express or secrete an oxoaldehyde reductase enzyme which may be used during the brewing process to stabilize the flavor of the resulting beer product and to produce a beer having a stable flavor. The present invention also provides extracts from a naturally occuring source (e.g., yeast), or a modified yeast or extract thereof, which will provide a sufficient amount of the necessary enzymes to block, inhibit or reduce the Maillard reaction intermediates (e.g., 3-deoxyglucosone), which result in the formation of the stale flavor in fermented malt beverages. In addition, the present invention provides fermented malt beverages having enhanced flavor stability produced by these methods.

Abstract: A heating panel has a metal substrate, ceramic inner and outer insulating layers on the substrate. A film of resistive material forms a heating layer on one of the insulating layers. The heating layer has electrodes on opposite edges connected to different phases of a multiphase power source. Another electrode is connected to a neutral of the power source. Capacitive currents caused in the substrate by the different phases cancel each other. Thus, leakage current is minimized through a conductor connected between the substrate and ground. The heating panel can be adapted for two phase or three phase systems. The heating panels are particularly useful for defining a heating cavity of an oven.

Abstract: The lifetime probability of a woman developing breast cancer can now be determined based on an allelic variation found in the 3'UTR of the prohibitin gene. The probability is dependent on the sequence of the 3'UTR at position 729, i.e., whether there is a thymine (T) or a cytosine (C) or both at this position. Polymorphism at position 729 is also disclosed as a susceptibility indicator for hereditary breast cancer in men. Determining the sequence at the position 729 can be done by any number of standard techniques. Preferably, the sequence is determined by amplifying this region by PCR and subjecting it to an RFLP analysis.

Abstract: Subject of this invention is a process for the chemical synthesis of polynucleotides having totally or partially random sequences, based on the utilization, as synthesis monomer units for the random sequence part, or presynthesized mononucleotides and dinucleotides. Said synthesis is carried out on separate supports, so that on each of those supports is alternated at least one reaction cycle wherein a mixture of said dinucleotides is bound, with at least one reaction cycle wherein a mononucleotide is bound, and that in a preferred embodiment at the end of the n cycles required for a codon synthesis, the supports are mixed and then redivided into one or more reaction containers. The resulting polynucleotides are such that, for the random sequence part, each trinucleotide unit is fit to match only a limited number of codons, predefined for each unity in number and sequence, and the genetic code degeneracy effects can thus be eliminated. FIG. 1 shows the chemical structure of the dinucleotides utilized as monomer units for the synthesis of codons forming the final sequence.
