Abstract: Viral proteins derived from an enterically transmitted non-A/non-B viral hepatitis agent (HEV) are disclosed. In one embodiment, the protein is immunologically reactive with antibodies present in individuals infected with the viral hepatitis agent. This protein is useful in a diagnostic method for detecting infection by the enterically transmitted agent. Specific epitopes have been identified that are reactive with sera of individual infected with different strains of HEV. Also disclosed are DNA probes derived from a cloned sequence of the viral agent. These probes are useful for identifying and sequencing the entire viral agent and for assaying the presence of the viral agent in an infected sample, by using probe-specific amplification of virus-derived DNA fragments.

Abstract: This invention relates to methods of isolating deletion mutants of Vibrio cholerae. In one method, the deletion is predetermined by digestion with restriction endonucleases of known specificity. The deletions are inserted into the Vibrio cholerae chromosome by in vivo recombination between a plasmid carrying the desired deletion, with adjacent flanking sequences, and the Vibrio cholerae chromosome. In another method, an initial in vivo recombination event of homologous sequences from the recombinant plasmid into the chromosome provides a selectable marker at this site. A second in vivo recombination event between homologous flanking sequences results in excision of proficient genes from the chromosome with the end product being a deletion mutation. The invention includes the isolation and characterization of a new Vibrio cholerae strain having a deletion in the ctx gene, as defined by Acc I, Xba I, Cla I and/or restriction endonuclease sites and further having a deletion in the gene encoding zonula occludens toxin.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preventing wrongly directed flows out of a rainwater channel (2) from being introduced into a receiving channel. The process is characterised in that the wrongly directed flows out of the rainwater channel (2) are transferred into a waste-water channel (4). The wrongly directed flows thus do not pass into the receiving channel but are transferred to the waste-water channel (4) connected to the sewage-treatment installation. An installation for carrying out the process has a rainwater channel (2) and a waste-water channel (4) and, furthermore, a connecting line (5) therebetween having a flow slope towards the waste-water channel. A sill (18) for channelling liquid away into the connecting line is arranged in the rainwater channel, and a regulator (20) regulates the throughflow through the connecting line (5). When the water in the rainwater channel (2) exceeds a defined level, the regulator (20) blocks off said channel towards the waste-water channel (4) and opens it again when the water falls below said level. Instead of a regulator (20) a pump (34) may also be provided which conveys the liquid from the rainwater channel (2) to the waste-water channel (4).   <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus for slicing objects, such as potatoes, with a rotatably mounted knife assembly (21). Objects (such as potatoes) (2,3) to be sliced are conveyed downward toward the knife assembly (21) between a gripper chain (7) and a feed chain (5). A pair of springs provide a biasing force which urges the chains together, thereby ensuring that the conveyed potatoes are fed positively and uniformly toward the knife assembly (21). Preferably, two feed rolls (27) having teeth are mounted between the lower ends of the chains and the knife assembly (each feed roll at the end of a rotating, slidable shaft (23,25)). The teeth of the rotating feed rolls (27) grip each potato conveyed against them by the chains, and force each such potato downward against the rotating knife assembly (21). Preferably, a support and retaining plate (81) is fixedly mounted to the feed mechanism to constrain vertical movement of the feed rolls (27) as they rotate with a potato gripped between them. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An array of electrodes is applied to an internal or external surface of a biological system such as a human being. The electrodes generate signals which are processed to compute a surface differential of the surface potential at a multiplicity of spatial locations within a given time epoch. The signal processing is repeated for multiple sequential time epochs and an image is constructed from the surface differential of the surface potential for each time epoch. Thereafter, the sequential images corresponding to sequential time epochs are displayed. The two-dimensional image changes as the distribution of bioelectric sources evolves so as to provide a motion picture of electrical activity.

Abstract: A dropleg row crop sprayer (12) senses boom height and tilt from ground-contacting droplegs (46) signalling through potentiometers (74, 76) to a boom control mechanism (84). The droplegs follow crop row wandering through a driven carriage (44). Dropleg attitude is assisted by a cam control system (94, 96). The boom (20, 21) floats through a spring suspension system (128, 138) and is damped by frictional abutment of the boom portions (20, 21), thereby permitting a single actuator (106) to control attitude. A lost motion linkage (126) protects the actuator (106) from snatch loads. Spray control is effected by use of microdroplets discharged from the droplegs (46) below the row crop leaf canopy which protects the droplets from wind turbulence, while electrostatic charges and droplet-energising air flow act to assit crop coating. Where conventional spray droplets are used, the spray direction is fore/aft of the row to minimize ground speed effects. <IMAGE>
