Date Apr. 1, 1993The invention relates to a vaccine, preferably for human use, against IgE-mediated allergic reactions. The vaccine contains a protein having the entire amino acid sequence of the constant CH2-CH3 domains of the epsilon chain of the IgE molecule or a structurally stable unit of said amino acid sequence, the protein optionally being coupled to one or more heterologous carrier proteins, and optionally containing an adjuvant. The vaccine is injected, with or without adjuvant, to raise the concentration of endogenous anti-IgE antibodies in the plasma of allergy subjects. In practice, the vaccine can be used against all types of IgE-mediated allergies since the antibodies are not dependent of the antigen specificity of the IgE molecule but will reduce the total IgE pool of the subject. Therefore, the vaccine is aimed at being used for treatment of subjects having different types of IgE-mediated allergies. The increased concentrations of anti-IgE antibodies reduces the free pool of antigen-specific IgE, which thereby strongly reduces the risk for an allergen-mediated release of the physiologically highly active substances which are stored or produced in connection with granula release from mast cells and basophilic leucocytes.

Abstract: A safety cut-off system for an installation consisting of machines which are designed for interaction has a machine cut-off level (10) in which a dedicated cut-off circuit is allocated to each machine (12a-12h), a zone cut-off level (20) in which cut-off zones can be cut off which consist of groups of associated machines, and a system cut-off level (30) which is allocated to all the machines (12a-12h) in the installation. The cut-off circuits each have an electrically operable switching element (16a-16h) which is connected via safety circuits (13a-13d) to a main box (24) for central control of the safety cut-off system and, through said box, to a power supply (100). The safety circuits (13a-13d) have operable tripping elements (22a, 22b, 32a) at the zone cut-off level (20) and at the system cut-off level (30), are designed as latching circuits and are passed through by the main box in which they can be selectively linked with one another by means of a switching matrix such that groups of associated machines are cut off when one of the tripping elements is operated. In order to connect an additional machine to the safety cut-off system, it is necessary only to connect the cut-off circuit of this machine to the main box (24) via an additional latching circuit. There is no need for any other change to the wiring of the installation since the additional machine is linked to the safety cut-off system in the switching matrix of the main box (24). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A bit clock signal which contains gaps inserted with one-bit accuracy for frame-clock detection is needed particularly in combined multiplexing and switching devices for digital signals. Having regard to the high accuracy in inserting the gaps, on the one hand, and to the great difference in frequency between the gapped clock and the bit clock, the extraction of the two clock signals from a system-generated normal clock is combined in such a manner that only the phase-locked loop provided for extracting the bit clock signal is synchronised by the normal clock via a frequency divider and a phase discriminator. Having regard to the required high operational reliability, the overall arrangement for generating the clock signals is constructed of two modules of identical configuration, additional synchronism being established between the frequency dividers of both modules which are of particular importance for the operation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus (3, 60, 202, 300) for measuring the dynamic, or alternating current, and static, or direct current, characteristics of a cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133) from one end, the local end, by utilizing an element (1, 19, 20) possessing known non-linear electrical characteristics connected across the other end, the remote end, together with methods and apparatus (30, 111) for connecting the non-linear element (1) across the remote end of the cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133) and disconnecting the non-linear element 11) by means of electrical voltages impressed across the cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133) at the local end. In the method and system of the present invention, the near end test set (3, 60, 202, 300) is electrically transposed to the far end of the cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133) making it appear, to be at the far end during the test while, physically remaining at the near end. The non-linear element (1), in its non-linear region, when suitably excited by two or more alternating signals of different frequencies ( 4, 12, 13, 41, 42, 113, 114), produces additional frequencies which travel back from the far end to the near end of the cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133) and are modified by the characteristics of the cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133). By selecting specific excitation frequencies and measuring the characteristics of the additional frequencies returned (6, 22, 52, 200), the characteristics of the cable (2, 10, 24, 133) can be deduced.

Abstract: Variable-gain amplifier stages, such as may be used in a television receiver intermediate-frequency (IF) amplifier, each comprise a pair of transistors connected as an emitter-coupled differential amplifier with resistive collector loads. An electrically controlled conductance is connected between the collector electrodes of the transistors, to shunt the resistive collector loads in controllable amount to set the voltage gain of the stage. The electrically controlled conductance in each variable-gain amplifier stage is constructed so as not to change the DC operating conditions of the emitter-coupled differential amplifier and its resistive collector loads with variation in the conductance of the electrically controlled conductance. Front end portions of television receivers or video tape recorders are described each of which uses separate intermediate-frequency (IF) amplifiers for the FM sound carrier and vestigial AM picture carrier. In each front end the two IF amplifiers comprise matched cascade connections of the variable-gain amplifiers with tracking automatic gain control (AGC). The AGC signals are generated by an AGC detector supplied composite video signal from a video detector, which video detector responds to amplified IF signal supplied by the IF amplifier for the vestigial-AM picture carrier.
