Title: Antibody-enzyme conjugates in combination with prodrugs for the delivery of cytotoxic agents to tumor cells
Inventor: SENTER PETER D
IPC: A61K31/13
Filed: 1988-07-29
Granted: 1991-09-05
Abstract: This invention relates to anthracycline prodrugs allowing the delivery of cytotoxic drugs to tumor cells by the administration of a tumor-specific antibody-enzyme conjugate that binds to the tumor cells, and the additional administration of the prodrug that is converted at the tumor site, in the presence of the antibody-bound enzyme, to an active cytotoxic drug. The present invention also relates to a method for preparing these prodrugs. According to one embodiment of the invention, an antibody-enzyme conjugate containing the enzyme, penicillin V amidase ("PVA"), has been used in conjunction with a novel prodrug, N-(p-hydroxyphenoxyacetyl)adriamycin to effect killing of tumor cells. The products of this invention provide for enhanced selective killing of tumor cells and are thus useful in the treatment of cancers and other tumors.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FI88/00118 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 10, 1990 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 10, 1990 PCT Filed Jul. 15, 1988 PCT Pub. No. WO89/00624 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 26, 1989.Method and an apparatus for controlling the production of thermomechanical pulp meter chips by metering elements (9, 10) into a feed chest (2), and by feed elements (3, 7) connected to the feed chest feeds chips for refinement between thermomechanical pulp refining discs (5). Water is added to the chips prior to feeding the chips between the discs (5). Moisture content of the thermomechanical pulp is measured after the thermomechanical pulp refiner at least in a semicontinuous fashion by at least one measurement device (21, 22, 23, 24) operating on-line, and on the basis of measured moisture content, the quantity of chips and water to be metered is controlled so as to regulate the moisture content to a desired level of having a constant value by, e.g., increasing the volume of metered chips and simultaneously decreasing the quantity of fed water for an increasing trend of moisture content, and correspondingly, applying an opposite strategy to counter a decreasing trend of moisture content. The implementation provides for a consistent quality of thermomechanical pulp.

Title: Refuse-collecting vehicle
Inventor: BEHLING HANS-JURGEN
IPC: B65F3/20
Filed: 1988-08-19
Granted: 1991-08-01
Abstract: In refuse vehicles having a refuse-filling system arranged behind the driver's cab, an adjacent refuse-compressing device and a refuse-collecting container arranged behind the latter, it was hitherto not possible to achieve adequate compression of the filled refuse inside the refuse-collecting container, resulting in insufficient utilisation of said container. 
<??>In the case of the invention, there is arranged in the range of action of the refuse-compressing device a counterpressure plate which can be subjected to a pressing force and is mounted in a radially swivellable manner on the ceiling of the refuse-collecting container, said plate forming a counterpressure element for the filled refuse. In this way it is possible to compress, in a uniform manner, the refuse filled into the refuse-collecting container from the start of refuse feeding until said container is completely full and thus an increased utilisation or useful load of the refuse vehicle can be achieved.

Title: Coating apparatus
Inventor: KATSUYAMA IWAO
IPC: B05C5/00
Filed: 1983-11-16
Granted: 1987-06-18
Abstract: A series of containers (13) to be coated with a liquid plastics material which subsequently hardens are moved by a chain conveyor (2) and are at the same time rotated in holders (1) on the conveyor by gear wheels (5) driven by a chain (6). The containers pass first through a priming zone (20) and are then moved in succession vertically downwards by a vertical length of the conveyor. The uppermost container in the downward vertical path is sprayed with the plastics material from a bank of nozzles (10). The containers are then moved through a drying zone (15) and a cooling zone (16). It has been found that by coating the containers while they are being moved vertically downwards and are being rotated, a very uniform coating can be obtained and also the supply of liquid coating material to the nozzles (10) can be continuous without any of the material missing the containers and being wasted.

Title: Group control for elevators provided with double cabins
Inventor: SCHRODER JORIS
IPC: B66B1/14
Filed: 1984-08-10
Granted: 1987-11-26
Abstract: A group control for elevators in which the allocations of the individual cars of double cars in an elevator group to stored floor calls can be optimized with respect to time, and newly occurring floor calls can be assigned immediately. A computing device is provided for each elevator to calculate operating costs of each car corresponding to the waiting and delay times of passengers at the floor and aboard the car with regard to each floor. The operating costs are reduced if unidirectional calls exist on the calculation floor and on a directly adjacent floor, and/or if coincidences of car calls and such floors occur. The operating costs of the two cars of a double car are compared with one another and the smaller costs are stored in a cost memory. During a cost comparison cycle, the operating costs of all elevators are compared with one another floor by floor via a comparator, whereby an allocation instruction is stored in an allocation memory of the elevator with the smallest operating costs. The allocation instruction designates the floor to which the car is assigned optimally with respect to time.

Abstract: A non-occlusive, non-adherent dressing for wounds, the dressing comprising an imperforate (i.e. continuous) flexible film (10, 12, 14) for contacting the wound, and an absorbent pad (16, 18) backing the wound-contacting film (14) and extending beyond a substantial portion of the periphery (20) of the film (10, 12, 14), the dressing having vapor transport capacity approximating that of intact human skin. The absorbent pad (16, 18) removes wound exudate from the proximate area of the wound without the pad (16, 18) coming into contact with the open wound itself. The final construction, comprising the film (10, 12, 14) and absorbent backing (16, 18), permits a measurable amount of moisture vapor to be transmitted (greater than 0.06 mg/cm<sup>2</sup>/hr), thereby greatly reducing the degree of maceration and other problems that may be produced by a fully occlusive dressing.
