Abstract: L'invention propose des polynucléotides qui identifient et codent la protéine semblable à la DBI/ACBP humaine (ligand endogène du récepteur benzodiazépine/protéine liant acyl-CoA), ci-après la DBIH. L'invention concerne des vecteurs d'expression et des cellules hôtes, obtenus par génie génétique et qui comprennent une séquence d'acide nucléique codant la DBIH. L'invention propose d'utiliser la DBIH sensiblement purifiée pour l'administration de médicaments et pour la production de protéines recombinantes afin de traiter des maladies ayant un rapport avec l'expression de la DBIH. En outre, l'invention propose d'utiliser des molécules antisens de la DBIH pour traiter des maladies en rapport avec l'expression de la DBIH. L'invention concerne également des techniques de diagnostic qui utilisent des compositions de diagnostic comprenant les polynucléotides qui s'hybrident avec des séquences existant naturellement et qui codent la DBIH et les anticorps se liant spécifiquement à cette protéine.

Abstract: An in-line system for fabricating double-sided compact discs (1) by bonding together an information bearing surface and another surface, has a prestressing station with means (19) for deforming at least one of the surfaces in such a way as to not disturb any of the data. It employs an adjustable spacer for maintaining an adjustable separation between symmetrical arcuate portions of the outer circumference of the information bearing surfaces in the bonding station. This adjustable spacer comprises two spacer arms (19) that comprise wedge-shaped portions for entry between the edges of said discs and maintaining a displacement of at least the outermost edges of said discs. There is also disc displacement means (31,17) for bringing together the two information bearing surfaces by displacement of at least one of said information bearing surfaces orthogonal to the plane of the surfaces.

Abstract: A shirt holder according to the invention
comprises a back pressing planar portion (1) having
a rectangular configuration for supporting a back face
of a folded shirt, a front pressing planar portion
(2)opposing the back pressing planar portion (1), and
a shirt collar protection portion (3), the back and
front pressing planar portions (1) and (2) being
separately formed, the front pressing planar portion
(2) integrally formed with the shirt collar protection
portion (3). The shirt holder has a box-type
configuration wherein the back pressing planar
portion (1) has a peripheral wall (11)on its periphery
to be fitted with an engagement projections (12) formed
on the peripheral portions of the front pressing planar
portion. Projections (15) and (16) of the back
pressing planar portion (1) and projections (13)and
(14) of the front pressing planar portion (2) are
arranged alternately in an offset relation. 
     The shirt holder advantageously prevents the
positional offset of a shirt held therein and even the
sliding-down of a shirt held in the shirt holder hung
on a rack for display at a shop. Thus, the shirt holder
permits a men's shirt fresh from a maker's plant or
a men's shirt, women's blouse, or a sports shirt such
as a polo shirt, which is laundered and neatly folded,
to be stacked in layers, to be hung on a rack for display
at a shop, or to be compactly packed in a bag or a
suitcase for carriage.

Abstract: A pixel data processing system (22, 40) evaluates a pixel data stream
and detects rapid changes in the image, such as black/white transitions that occur
along text edges. The pixel data processing system detects a gray level change by
computing an absolute gray level change from a gray level value of one pixel datum
and a gray level value of a neighboring pixel datum. The absolute gray level change
is then compared to a predefined value, with the result indicating whether the
image is changing rapidly. The pixel data processing system includes a sharpening
filter (32, 44) to sharpen the pixel data when the image is changing rapidly (i.e.,
when the gray level change exceeds the predefined value). The sharpening filter
(32, 44) is not used when the image is changing slowly (i.e., when the gray level
change does not exceed the predefined value). The selective application of the
sharpening filter improves the edge characteristics of text, without degrading
graphical components of the image. The pixel data may then be further processed
using a halftone or continuous-tone process.

Abstract: A traveling wave tube apparatus (10) and method is disclosed.
The traveling wave tube (10) includes a slow wave
structure (14) such as a helix member (22). The helix member
(22) has an input end (24) for receiving a microwave input signal
having a selected power level and an output end (26) for
supplying a microwave output signal having a given power level.
A microwave source (30) is connected to the input end (24) of
the helix member (22) for applying the microwave input signal
to the helix member (22). An electron gun assembly (12) is adjacent
the input end (24) of the helix member (22) and has a
cathode (18) for injecting electrons as an electron beam (17)
through the helix member (22). A collector assembly (16) is adjacent
the output end (26) of the helix member (22) and has at
least four collector electrodes (42) for collecting the electrons
in the electron beam (17). The power level of the microwave
input signal is selected such that the given power level
of the microwave output signal is at least 3 dB lower than the
power level of the microwave output signal at saturation. The
geometry of the electrodes and bias voltages applied to the
electrodes are selected to handle an electron beam of a traveling
wave tube operating at least 3 dB backed off from saturation
so as to maximize the collection efficiency. The geometry
of the electrodes and bias voltages applied to the electrodes
are selected such that the collector assembly generates a high
level of backstreaming current when the traveling wave tube operates
at saturation.

Abstract: The present invention provides a vehicle for spreading
spreadable materials and comprising a wagon box (2) for
receiving and transporting the material and which, at the
rear, is provided with a spreader device (4) comprising a
set of upright spreader rollers (6, 8) for spreading the

Abstract: Thermal treatment of gases produced from carbonaceous substances to remove tars and hydrocarbons is carried out in packed bed of solids where gases and a judicious quantity of air react taking them through temperature peak largely removing polycyclic aromatics releasing hydrogen and carbon monoxide. The mixture is cooled e.g. in a waste heat boiler (13) to not more than 500 degrees C. Dust is removed by a filter (15). The mixture is introduced into a thermal storage unit packed with solids (21). Here its controlled oxygen content, introduced by an air line (18), is consumed by partial oxidation and condensable hydrocarbons become thermally cracked as the gas flows through the bed from inlet to outlet. The maximum temperature in the packing is 900-1500 degrees C. Inlet gas temperature is below the ignition point of the mixture and at least 200 degrees C under the maximum reached. The gas mixture leaves at least 200 degrees C below this maximum. Inlet and outlet zones of the packing, are interchangeable. Condensable hydrocarbons in the gas mixture are reduced to 20% at most, of those present at the inlet.

Abstract: An optical disc records video objects that are
obtained by multiplexing a video stream and an audio
stream. The audio stream is an arrangement of a
plurality of sets of audio frame data. Each video
object unit in a video object is an arrangement of packs
that have a different payload. The video stream and
audio stream are divided using a predetermined size and
the resulting data divisions are arranged into packs.
At least one video object unit includes packs where
stuffing bytes or a padding packet is arranged with part
or all of a set of audio frame data so that the boundary
with the next video object unit corresponds to a
boundary between a boundary between sets of audio frame
data. Since the boundary between video objects is made
to match a boundary between sets of audio frame data,
partial deletes that are performed with a video object
unit as the smallest unit will not result in unnecessary
parts of data remaining on the optical disc.
