Abstract: The profile bars (2a,2b) have, on a narrow side in each case, a toothed strip (14) which forms a hook (16) in cross-section. On the other narrow side there is provided a corresponding cutout (24) for the engagement of the hook strip (16). The ends of the profile bars (2a,2b) are terminated by end pieces (38a,38b) which have an outwardly projecting web (50) which has a securing part (54) which can be bent out and, in the basic position, bridges over the cutout (24). As a result, an undesired lateral sliding-apart of the profile bars is prevented and a desired displacement is ensured in a simple manner. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An electric range (R) has a glass/ceramic cooking top (S) upon which rests a cooking utensil. Electrical heating apparatus (10) comprises an electrical resistance heating element (12) to which an electrical current is supplied. This causes the heating element to generate heat. A heat sink (16) is interposed between the heating element and the cooking top for absorbing heat energy from the heating element and for spreading the energy under the surface area of the top by conduction. The heat sink is of an electrically insulative, translucent, aluminum nitride material or similar high thermal conductivity material. An insulation cake (20) supports the heating element and heat sink adjacent an underside of the cooking top and provides both electrical and thermal insulation. A pan (24) supports the insulation cake, the heating element (12) and the sink (16) in intimate contact with each other and the underside of the cooking top for maximum heat transfer by conduction. The heating element also functions as a temperature sensor responding with a change in electrical resistance to a change in temperature of the heating element as influenced by the cooking process. The change in electrical resistance is the input for an electronic control which prevents excessive temperature of the glass/ceramic cooking top. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention pertains to a novel method and plasmid system for producing abundant quantities of CRM197 protein, diphtheria toxin or other CRM proteins related to diphtheria toxin, as well as to microorganisms transformed with the novel plasmid. A particularly preferred DNA plasmid, designated pPX 3511, that combines the gene for CRM197 from the nontoxigenic betaphage and the plasmid pNG2-22 is described. The novel plasmid system is capable of transforming strains of Corynebacterium diphtheriae into strains which are capable of expressing high levels of the CRM197 protein without the use of multiple lysogens. The invention provides in elegant means for increasing protein production without having to manipulate the expression vector, such as by increasing the promoter strength, or removing the promoter from iron regulation.
