Abstract: A cathode foil and an anode foil, with an oxidized film layer formed on the surface and a separator interposed therebetween, are wound together to form a capacitor element, and prior to subjecting the capacitor element to chemical repair the content of the binder in the separator is adjusted to 10 to 20% with respect to the total weight of the separator. After the chemical repair, the capacitor element is immersed in mixed liquid prepared by mixing a polymerizable monomer and an oxidizing agent together with a predetermined solvent, a polymerization reaction of the electroconductive polymer is induced in the capacitor element, and a solid electrolyte layer is formed. The capacitor element is then inserted in an outer case; sealing rubber is mounted in the open-end portion and sealed with a tightening operation; and the unit is thereafter aged to form a solid electrolytic capacitor. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Dendrimer conjugates are presented, which are formed between a dendrimer and a protein solubilising substance. Such dendrimer conjugates ar effective in the treatment of protein aggregate-related diseases (e.g. prion-related diseases). The protein solubilising substance and the dendrimer together show a protein aggregate solubilising effect higher than a physical mixture of the dendrimer and the protein solubilising substance (i.e. a synergistic effect). Such dendrimer conjugates are useful in the treatment or prevention of protein aggregate-relates diseases, in disinfection/decontamination processes and in classifying or identifying protein aggregates. The synthesis of such dendrimer conjugates from readily-available starting materials is described.

Abstract: Fabrication of curved glass sheets involves displacing glass sheets that have been previously heated to their softening temperature and progressively conferring the desired curvature. Between the initial and final phases of bending, at a location in the line of displacement, air is continuously blown on at least one surface of the glass sheet under conditions capable of influencing in an asymmetrical fashion the final concavity of the glass sheet with respect to that which would be imparted to the final bending without the blowing of air.  Independent claims are also included for: (a) curved glass sheets obtained by this method and presenting an asymmetry able to be detected by polaroscopy or using a stratorefractometer or a biasograph; (b) a machine for the bending of glass sheets by this method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of encoding and decoding an audio signal. The invention further relates to an arrangement for encoding and decoding an audio signal. The invention further relates to a computer-readable medium comprising a data record indicative of an audio signal and a device for communicating an audio signal having been encoded according to the present invention. By the method of encoding, a double description of the signal is obtained, where the encoding comprises two encoding steps, a first standard encoding and an additional second encoding. The second encoding is able to give a coarse description of the signal, such that a stochastic realization can be made and appropriate parts can be added to the decoded signal from the first decoding. The required description of the second encoder in order to make the realization of a stochastic signal possible requires a relatively low bit rate, while other double/multiple descriptions require a much higher bit rate.
