Abstract: The subject of the invention is constituted by a process for determining the state of curing of an elastomeric workpiece and a device for carrying out the process. The prior art is the measurement of the tear strength or the needle penetration depth and the calculation of the state of curing from the measured value. The disadvantage is being restricted to time-consuming measurements on samples taken at relatively large intervals. Series measurement is impossible. The object is to disclose a process in which the workpiece remains intact and the measuring time is so short that the process can be carried out in series fashion; and to provide a corresponding device.   The solution is constituted by a process in which the workpiece to be tested is pressed and suddenly relieved, the recovery path being tracked over time and its asymptotic value being determined therefrom, from which value the state of curing of the workpiece is computationally or graphically determined after the result of the determination of the known state of curing of at least two comparative examples has been obtained; as well as by a device with a laser optic system for diverging, collimating and focusing a parallel ray beam, the light spot of which on the specimen surface is opto-electrically examined and held constant by correcting an objective, the course of the recovery path being recorded; especially with a workpiece adjusting device (10), a pressing device (12), a path/time recording device (14) and an electronic evaluation unit (16) having evaluation electronics (18). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus (10) to effect tanning or repair of ultraviolet-damaged DNA in humans. The method utilizes very short discrete pulses of electromagnetic radiation, with a dark period of low to zero energization between discrete pulses, of selected wave length. A first band of radiation, preferably between 250 to 400 nm, is effective to induce tanning; while a second band of radiation, preferably between 320 to 600 nm, is effective to induce DNA repair. One type of apparatus (10) continuously generates electromagnetic radiation of the selected wave length and projects that radiation through mechanical pathblockers to create the discrete pulses. Some possible mechanical pathblockers are rotating slats (41) having apertures (40); one or more rotating cylinders (20) with opening (26). An example of another type of apparatus is a stroboscopic flash tube (56).

Abstract: This invention provides a simple immunoassay system and a measuring kit for use in the measurement of anti-EBNA antibodies, in which recombinant type EBNA proteins are used. The anti-EBNA antibody measuring kit is useful for the individual measurement of anti-EBNA-1 antibodies, anti-EBNA-2 antibodies, anti-EBNA-3 antibodies, anti-EBNA-4 antibodies, anti-EBNA-5 antibodies and anti-EBNA-6 antibodies. 
     Particularly, this invention provides a method for the measurement of anti-EBNA antibodies which comprises the steps of allowing anti-EBNA antibodies in a test sample to react with a recombinant type EBNA fusion protein immobilized on a support through an anti-β-galactosidase antibody, allowing the anti-EBNA antibodies to react with an enzyme-conjugated anti-EBNA antibody and measuring a signal (enzyme activity) generated from the conjugated enzyme contained in an immune complex formed by the above steps. 
     Also particularly, this invention provides an anti-EBNA antibody measuring kit in which an anti-β-galactosidase antibody and a recombinant type EBNA fusion protein are immobilized on a support through binding of the anti-β-galactosidase antibody to the support and binding of the recombinant type EBNA fusion protein to the anti-β-galactosidase antibody.

Abstract: A disc (11) which can be inserted, on its own or in a stack of several discs (11 to 14), between vertebral bodies is proposed as implant for spinal columns. As and when required, individual discs are cut off a strand, the thickness of the discs being exactly adaptable to the individual case. These implants are especially suitable for cervical vertebrae and as replacement after removal of intervertebral discs. For formation of an implant of several discs stacked on top of one another, a corresponding range of discs which differ from each other in diameter and in height can be provided. Accordingly, discs of corresponding thickness are selected and assembled for the particular application, so that, as a whole, they give the height necessary for the implant. Screwed connections and, in particular, lengthly manipulations in the inserted state of the implant are unnecessary with the implant according to the invention. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An electromagnetic flowmeter for obtaining a detection signal by sampling voltages generated from electrodes in contact with a conductive fluid flowing in a magnetic field at a predetermined timing includes an external noise detecting section, a pseudo-noise signal generating section, and a timing signal generating section. The external noise detecting section detects external noise, superposed on the fluid, from the electrodes. The pseudo-noise generating section supplies a pseudo-noise signal for a predetermined period of time if the external noise detecting section determines that no external noise signal is detected. The timing signal generating section generates a timing at which an excitation current for generating the magnetic field is generated, and the sampling timing on the basis of the pseudo-noise signal while the pseudo-noise signal is kept supplied, and causes the external noise detecting section to generate the timing at which the excitation current for generating the magnetic field is generated, and the sampling timing while no pseudo-noise signal is supplied.

Abstract: For the preparation of biologically active  beta -NGF (nerve growth factor) by genetic engineering by expression of an appropriate DNA sequence in prokaryotes as host cells, a DNA sequence is used which is composed in the 5'-3'-direction of sequences which code for     (a) methionine as a starting amino acid, (b) 3 to 5 amino acids of an n-terminal sequence of a protein which can be expressed in the host cells used with a high expression rate, (c) 4 to 10 amino acids from the pro sequence of the  beta -NGF precursor and   (d) the 118 amino acids of the mature  beta -NGF which, after expression of this DNA sequence in insoluble aggregates of inactive  beta -NGF obtained from E. coli, are converted into a soluble active form by     (1) solubilisation, (2) if appropriate dialysis and/or derivatisation of the resulting beta -NGF with the oxidised form of a compound, whose reduced form contains sulphydryl groups and whose oxidised form is a dimer of the compound bonded via a disulphide bridge, to give the mixed disulphide, and (3) naturation with the aid of a redox system consisting of a compound in oxidised and/or reduced form, whose reduced form contains sulphydryl groups and whose oxidised form contains a dimer bonded via a disulphide bridge, and removing, if appropriate subsequently with the aid of a protease, the amino acids of the sequences (a) and/or (b) and/or (c) and/or up to 9 N-terminal amino acids of the sequence (d). An active  beta -NGR is obtained which contains less than 5% of  beta -NGF degradation products or  beta -NGF modified by a Met radical at the N terminus and is preferably free of other mammalian cell proteins and can be shortened or lengthened at the N terminus. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved seal assembly for sealing between the interior sealing surface of a well housing and the exterior sealing surface of a hanger landed within the well housing and includes a seal body having a pair of outer lips diverging outwardly for sealing against the housing interior sealing surface and an interior series of annular ridges which have a diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the hanger exterior sealing surface, an upper energizer and a lower energizer for coacting with said lips to move the lips into sealing position and to store the energy of setting to ensure sealing engagement of the lips. The shape of the sealing lips is such that they each provide a sealing surface and a ridge having a greater outer diameter than the sealing surface so that when the seal assembly is being run into the housing any scratches resulting from the engagement of the seal with the interior of the housing is on the ridges and not on the sealing surfaces. Additionally, the exterior of the outwardly diverging lips is provided with a coating of a scratch healing material, such as sliver plate, so that scratches on the sealing surface can be healed when the sealing surface is wedged into sealing engagement with the interior wall of the housing. 
     The upper and lower sealing lips are of an annealed or soft metal while the upper and lower energizer bodies are of a high yield strength metal so that the loading force on the lips can be stored and maintained after they are set into sealing position. In some forms of the invention the energy is stored by virtue of the lips being of a relatively low yield strength material as compared to the energizers which have a higher yield strength. Also, structure is provided in some of the forms of the invention to store both radial and axial lip loading forces.

Abstract: A breakable link is based on the principles of wetting which occurs between one material, when it is in liquid form, as it is placed on a surface of another material. Specifically, the breakable link of this invention is created by depositing a conducting layer 15 over a region 25 that encompasses two pads (11,12) that are wettable by the deposited conducting layer and over an insulating area between the pads that is much less wettable by the depositied conducting layer. The link is broken by raising the temperature of the deposited conducting layer above its melting point. When the conducting layer melts, the wetting action of the two pads in combination with the non-wetting action of the insulating area draws the molten solder away from the insulating area and onto the pads. The drawing away from the insulating area breaks the electrical contact between the two pads.
