Abstract: A method of making a microparticle that contains DNA coding for a polypeptide is described, in which a solvent extraction method is used and solvent extraction takes place at elevated temperature. Oral administration of the microparticle leads to its expression. DNA coding for an immunogen is for stimulating antibody formation in a recipient and DNA coding for a non-immunogenic polypeptide is for gene therapy applications. DNA is incorporated into the microparticle without destruction of its function.

Abstract: Provided is a grille shutter opening/closing control device capable of appropriately opening and closing a grille shutter according to the environment outside a vehicle and the operating state of an air conditioner while ensuring the operation of the air conditioner, thereby achieving sufficient improvement of the operation efficiency of the vehicle. An air conditioner operating time ratio (RA/CON) that is the ratio of the operating time of an air conditioner (32) to the overall time is calculated. When the calculated air conditioner operating time ratio (RA/CON) is larger than the sum of a threshold value (RREF) calculated according to an ambient temperature (TAM) and a hysteresis constant (”R), a grille shutter (47) is opened (steps 29, 31, 73, 77). As a result, the cooling of a refrigerant in the air conditioner (32) can be accelerated and power consumption of the air conditioner (32) can be reduced. Therefore, the grille shutter (47) can be appropriately opened and closed according to the ambient temperature (TAM) and the operating rate of the air conditioner (32) while the operation of the air conditioner (32) is ensured, thereby achieving the improvement of fuel cost.

Abstract: Methode et appareil de reglage isoelectrique des fluides. Selon la methode de l'invention, le debit du fluide a traiter est etabli dans une premiere direction. Ce debit de fluide est profile a l'aide d'une pluralite de membranes microporeuses permeables (52-60) qui definissent des canaux paralleles orientes dans la premiere direction. Une tension electrique est appliquee sur les canaux profiles de fluide en ecoulement, et le reglage isoelectrique des fluides est effectue pendant leur debit, les membranes permettant entre elles l'echange des composants des fluides tout en produisant le profilage desire. On obtient une approximation du debit du type "bouchon" dans les canaux profiles. c'est-a-dire un debit ayant des caracte de section de passage approximativement uniforme. Dans le mode preferentiel de la methode selon l'invention, un passage de recirculation est etabli pour chacun des canaux profiles, de sorte que le fluide sortant de chaque canal est remis en circulation au debut du canal. De preference, ceci est effectue par pompage (400) des fluides dans chacun des passages de recirculation et par refroidissement (300) des fluides pendant leur recirculation. De cette maniere, un nombre de "passes" sont effectuees pour obtenir le degre voulu de reglage isoelectrique. Le refroidissement, qui a lieu pendant la recirculation, sert a reduire au minimum les problemes de dissipation de la chaleur par effet Joule pendant le reglage isoelectrique des fluides dans les canaux profiles. Egalement, dans le mode d'execution prefe de l'invention, la premiere direction est vers le bas de sorte que les fluides s'ecoulent sous l'influence de la pesanteur, pour permettre l'equilibre de gravite des niveaux du fluide dans les canaux a travers les membranes (52-60).
