Abstract: A valve assembly, securable in an upper opening of a container for liquids, is simple and inexpensive to manufacture yet provides improved operability and is capable of relieving excess gas pressure within the container. The valve assembly preferably includes a stub and a riser pipe/valving unit detachably mounted in the stub. The valving unit substantially consists of a unified riser pipe having blockable gas and/or liquid portals, and movable members arranged co-axially within two upper reception areas in the riser pipe and including a single sealing ring and a dispensing tower. The sealing ring is axially displaceable against the pressure of a spring to move from a neutral closed position to a lower open position by way of external activation. One of the sealing ring and the dispensing tower is movable axially relative to the other, under lifting forces imposed by excess gas pressure within the container, from a neutral closed position to a venting position, thereby venting some gas from the container and regulating container pressure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vaccine comprising a bacterium attenuated by a non-reverting mutation in a gene encoding a protein which promotes folding of extracytoplasmic proteins. Such mutations were intially identified as being useful in vaccines from a bank of randomly inserted, transposon mutants in which attenuation was determined as a reduction in virulence of the organism in the mouse model of infection. Site directed mutation of the gene results in a strain which shows at least 4 logs of attenuation when delivered both orally and intravenously. Animals vaccinated with such a strain are protected against subsequent challenge with the parent wild type strain. Finally, heterologous antigens such as the non-toxic and protective, binding domain from tetanus toxin, fragment C, can be delivered via the mucosal immune system using such strains of bacteria. This results in the induction of a fully protective immune response to subsequent challenge with native tetanus toxin.

Abstract: A system for connecting multiple users to multiple computers uses a switch for making and breaking connections between individual computers and input/output devices such as display screens, keyboards and pointing devices at user locations. A supervisory computer system maintains a database of the available computers and connections to user locations. The supervisory computer system includes one or more helper computers, which run programs to aid the user in selecting connections to be made. The switch is arranged to capture preselected input sequences as designating commands, such as a command to connect the helper computer, and forward these to the supervisory computer system. The supervisory computer system actuates the switch in response to these commands so that the users can establish communication with the helper computer.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an effective method for the refolding of denatured proteins in solution so that properly folded, biologically active protein in solution is recovered in high yield. The refolding takes place at pressures between about 0.25 kbar to about 3.5 kbar, advantageously at about 1.5 kbar to about 3 kbar. Typically a chaotropic agent is present at a concentration which is not effective for denaturing protein at atmospheric pressure, and optionally, oxidation-reduction reagents can be incorporated in the refolding solution so that native intramolecular disulfide bonds can be formed where that is desired. The method is applicable to substantially all proteins, especially after solubilization and/or denaturation of insoluble protein aggregates, inclusion bodies, or abnormal oligomeric (soluble) aggregates.
