Title: Stable polyamide resin dispersions and methods for the manufacture thereof
Inventor: SMITH GEORGE A
IPC: C09J177/08
Filed: 1992-01-03
Granted: 1994-07-28
Abstract: Aqueous dispersions of polyamide resins having improved stability with respect to gelation and phase separation are provided, along with preparative methods therefor. The improved stability of the provided aqueous dispersions is achieved by the addition to such dispersion of a chemical moiety, such as a water soluble, amphoteric amino acid, anionic and cationic salts of amino acid, or mixtures thereof, in aqueous solutions. In a preferred embodiment, a dispersion-stabilizing amount of glycine is added with the inversion water used to invert an emulsion of water in polyamide resin. The resulting emulsion of resin in water is then cooled below the resin's melting point, causing the emulsified droplets of the polyamide resin to solidify as finely divided particles which are dispersed uniformly through the aqueous phase. The stable, aqueous dispersions of this invention are useful in coatings, inks, and as coatings for hot melt adhesive applications.

Title: Variable data rate channels for digital networks
Inventor: BURREN JOHN WALTER
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1992-05-27
Granted: 1994-03-24
Abstract: Communication channels provided by the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) usually carry 64 Kbits/sec in each direction and are therefore unsuitable for data traffic at higher rates. This difficulty can be overcome by assembling ISDN channels to form channels having a higher bit rate. However problems arise, for example, in the transmission of data packets where the bit-rate required changes frequently and therefore the number of channels grouped together must be changed often. These problems are tackled as now described. Data packets are received from local area networks by a computer 13 and stored in queue areas 174 to 178 of a store area 173. The queue areas correspond to groups of ISDN channels which are combined to form high bit rate channels, known as slots and U-channels, respectively. The computer 13 assembles data from the queue areas into an ISDN frame held by a frame buffer 172 using an appropriate number of slots in the frame for each U-channel. ISDN frames are passed to conventional ISDN circuits in a terminal 11 which uses the ISDN to transmit to a similar terminal. On reception ISDN frames are passed to a frame store 182 and then slots in frames are passed to packet assembly buffers 184 to 188, one for each U-channel, before being passed to users as data packets. When a new slot is to be added to a U-channel without interrupting data in the existing slots, synchronisation signals are sent in the new slot and a system of flags is used to establish when data is to be sent in the new channel. When the bit-rate of a U-channel is to be reduced by removing a slot, a distinctive closing sequence is sent in that channel which on reception is an indication that no further data will be sent in that slot. <IMAGE>

Title: Calibration of fluid delivery equipment
Inventor: GILL DAVID CHARLES
IPC: G01F25/00
Filed: 1988-06-28
Granted: 1991-10-31
Abstract: The flow rate of a fluid, such as a herbicide, from delivery equipment is established by causing the fluid to flow into a calibration vessel (14), and measuring the volume which flows in a predetermined time. The vessel (14) is connected to a delivery head (8) of the equipment by an intermediate component (16). A tube (116) provides a passage for venting air from the vessel (14) as fluid flows into it. After a calibration measurement, the fluid can be returned to the equipment by inverting the equipment. The outgoing fluid is then replaced by air flowing back through the tube (116).

Title: A method for obtaining glycosyltransferases
Inventor: ROTH STEPHEN
IPC: C12N9/10
Filed: 1992-12-21
Granted: 1998-01-22
Abstract: A reiterative method for obtaining the glycosyltransferases useful for glycosyltransferase-catalyzed synthesis of a saccharide composition by serially bonding preselected saccharide units onto an immobilized acceptor moiety which is one member selected from the group consisting of proteins, glycoproteins, lipids, glycolipids and carbohydrates. The method comprises in a first iteration, the steps of (i) contacting an acceptor moiety immobilized onto a solid or semi-solid support with a mixture containing at least one glycosyltransferase under conditions effective to allow said glycosyltransferase to bind to the immobilized acceptor moiety thereby resulting in an immobilized acceptor moiety-glycosyltransferase complex, followed by (ii) contacting the immobilized acceptor moiety-glycosyltransferase complex with a preselected saccharide under conditions and in the presence of co-reagents sufficient to effect bonding of the preselected saccharide unit onto the immobilized acceptor moiety catalyzed by the glycosyltransferase thereby freeing the glycosyltransferase from the complex and obtaining an immobilized product. This is followed by a single or a plurality of subsequent iterations of steps (i) and (ii), such that the immobilized product obtained in step (ii) of a given iteration is used as the immobilized acceptor moiety in step (i) of the following iteration.
