Abstract: A holding device (10) for use during surgical procedures involving tubular body ducts (24) includes a shank portion (14) and a terminal portion (16). The terminal portion (16) has a bulbous section (20) at the terminus of the rod (12). The outer surface of the terminal portion (16) is free of discontinuities, and the bulbous section (20) has a cross-sectional dimension slightly less than the diameter of the tubular body duct (24). The terminal portion (16) can be received within the body duct (24) so that the bulbous section (20) will resist withdrawal when the body duct (24) is tied to the terminal portion (16). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A neural network is trained using a process model to approximate a function which relates process input and output data to process parameter values. Once trained, the network can be used as a system identification tool. This approach can be used for linear or non linear processes, for open or closed loop identification, and for identifying any or all process parameters. The tool can be used for a wide variety of system identification problems with little or no analytic effort. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Novel DNA constructs which may be used as molecular probes or inserted into a plant host are provided. These constructs comprise a sequence obtainable from the Bce4 gene that is capable of directing transcription in seed tissue at least as early as 11 days after anthesis until approximately 30-35 days after anthesis, joined to a nucleic acid sequence of interest, and a transcription termination region. Thus, transcription of a message encoded by a nucleic acid sequence under the control of the Bce4 regulatory region will occur at a specific time of seed development. In this manner, production of exogenous products, as well as modulation of endogenous products, may be achieved.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for controlling vehicle ignition lock (4) and transmission shift lock (1) in an interlocked relation to each other. The mechanism comprises a lock member (5) movable into a lock position for blocking up a passage (37) to a Park position of a position plate (3). An operating member (6) drives the lock member (5) into the lock position in response to upward movement of a position pin (21) in the Park position. A stopper (41) of an ignition lock is movable between a lock position for preventing rotation of a key rotor into a lock position and an unlock position for allowing the same. A cable (7) interconnects the lock member and the stopper to allow them to move in unison such that movement of the lock member into the lock position causes the stopper to move into the unlock position and movement of the stopper into the lock position causes the lock member to move into the unlock position. A spring (44) is installed in the ignition lock for urging the stopper toward the lock position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process for phosphorylating a peptide comprises reacting an aqueous solution of the peptide with an effective amount of phosphorous oxychloride under conditions favoring phosphorylation of the peptide. In a specific embodiment, the peptide is insulin. A phosphorylated insulin is used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus wherein the phosphorylated insulin is produced or purified with an effective amount of phosphorus oxychloride to have substantially reduced iso-electric points and to have the property of reducing hyperglycemia without substantially inducing hypoglycemia. In a specific embodiment of the invention, the method comprises administering to a human being an effective therapeutic amount of a phosphorylated insulin essentially free of unmodified insulin and having substantially reduced iso-electric points whereby hyperglycemia is reduced substantially without inducing hypoglycemia. A phosphorylated insulin having either at least one phosphate group substituted on serine residues in the insulin or at least one phosphate group substituted on threonine residues in the insulin is for use in the treatment of diabetes mellitus.

Abstract: A stabilized pharmaceutical composition containing paclitaxel, teniposide, camptothecin or other antineoplastic agent susceptible to degradation during storage is produced using a solvent system containing a low carboxylate anion content. The solvent system is a mixture of ethanol and a polyoxyethylated castor oil. The polyoxyethylated castor oil is treated with an acid or contacted with alumina to reduce the carboxylate anion content of the solvent. The low carboxylate anion content of the solvent provides extended shelf life and lower amounts of degradation by-products.

Date Jul. 11, 1996An aerial towed hit detector used together with a sleeve target can obtain an oscillatory movement in the roll angular direction because of the small aerodynamic stability of the target. For determining the path or the miss distance of a projectile passing by the target and the hit detector, the position of the hit detector in the air is measured for allowing a compensation to be made in the determination of hit parameters of the projectile. In the determination of the position of the hit indicator tow accelerometers are used measuring the acceleration laterally or in a tangential direction. One accelerometer is attached to the hit detector and one to the tow rod. By forming the difference of the signals from the accelerometers and integrating the difference signal in two steps information of the angular position of the hit indicator is obtained. This calculation is made in a microprocessor for those times when pressure waves from projectiles hit the hit detector.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of diagnosing cancer, precancerous state, and susceptibility to other forms of diseases, by use of a molecular marker, interferon-regulatory factor-1 (IRF-1). The method is characterized in that IRF-1-specific RNA is analysed in a sample obtained from blood or other biopsy material, preferably by reverse transcription/polymerase chain reaction. The invention is based on the unexpected finding that a novel mechanism of inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene IRF-1 plays a crucial role e.g. in hematopoietic malignancies. An unusual exon skipping leads to RNA molecules which lack exon 2 or exons 2 and 3. The relative amounts of full-length RNA and shortened RNA molecules are significantly different in samples obtained from tumor patients as compared to healthy donors. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A tensioning member for a blade screen that permits simultaneous tensioning of a plurality of blades in a blade screen, such as for wood chip sorting, is shown. The blade screen tensioning member includes a hinged bracket that may be supported on a portion of a frame, a spring steel blade holder for engaging a press-snap inserted into a hole in each of the engaged blades, and an elastic stop nut and stud for tightening and tensioning the blades. The blades are held in place at the opposite end of the frame by a similar holder, which, however, is fixed rather than hinged. The spring steel blade holder is reinforced for additional strength, and is bent at an approximately 45 degree angle where the press-snap is engaged. The blades themselves may also be provided with a sawtooth detail on a bottom edge to reduce the build-up of wood ribbons or fines that would otherwise occur. A sliding bearing with a dovetail configuration is also provided. This sliding bearing allows a dual-frame blade screen to be assembled, while compensating for any phase angle error between eccenters provided to agitate the wood chips by moving the screens.

Abstract: An automatic call distribution (ACD) system has a transaction queue for storing data indicating the skills and the levels of these skills that are required to process the calls at a call center. The ACD system also has a skills inventory database for storing data indicating the skills and the skill levels of each of the agents at the call center. The skills inventory database also stores data indicating the preferences and the preference levels of the call center management to have specific agents process calls with specific skill requirement levels. The ACD system compares the skill levels required by a call with the skill levels and/or preference levels of available agents and distributes the call to the available agent that has the best skill and/or preference match. A match is best with respect to skills if the agent is not underqualified to process the call and if the agent is the least overqualified agent. A match is best with respect to preferences if the call center management most prefers that the agent handle the call. The call center management controls whether the ACD system considers skill matches, preference matches, or both. <IMAGE>
