Abstract: An integrally molded plastic brace (1) for suspending a cluster of vegetables or fruits from a trellising string, comprises: 
   flexible shank (2) provided at one end with a hook (3) adapted to engage the stem of the cluster, and at its other end with a pair of parallel prongs (5,5') extending backwards from said other end of the shank, each prong being separated from the shank by a wedge-shaped slot (7,7') tapering towards said other end of the shank; 
   wherein the distal portions (8,8') of said prongs are bent away from the shank in the same direction and are each provided on its surface facing the shank with a ratch (9,9') adapted to retain a string inserted between the prongs and the shank; 
   the end of the shank carrying the prong terminates in a flat, slightly tapering tongue (10) and the mid-portion of the shank is of reduced thickness so as to enable it both to bend and to twist easily under mild torsion, for which purpose a flat handle (12) is provided at about the middle of the shank.

IPC: A61K8/63

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition for the treatment of the hair and the scalp when there is hair loss based on conventional cosmetic vehicles and additives, where the hair growth-promoting effect is based on the antiandrogenic effect of cyproterone acetate. This substance is suitable for reducing the androgenetic hair loss, which in women may also exist when there is no elevation of androgen levels in serum or collected urine, and for promoting hair growth. The invention also relates to a hair treatment process for the same purpose, which relates to the amount of hair lotion applied, the frequency of application and the type and mode of application. The percutaneous absorption of cyproterone acetate ensures blocking of the androgen receptors in the scalp without systemic side effects, which are scarcely avoidable on oral or parenteral administration (e.g. loss of libido, impotence, reversible sterility, gynaecomastia, thromboembolic complications, disturbances of liver function), occurring at the stated dosage. The target group for the hair lotion and the hair treatment process are men and pre- and post-menopausal women who have hair loss which is partly or mainly caused androgenetically and who wish to avoid the systemic effects of cyproterone acetate.

Abstract: In a semiconductor power module, a surge voltage on a power source line of a semiconductor element for electric power control is restrained. A power source terminal PS(NP) is comprised of power source terminals PS(P) and PS(N) which are arranged adjacent each other through a plate-like insulative sheet INS1 made of insulative synthetic resin or the like sandwitched therebetween. The power source terminals PS(P) and PS(N) are each formed by a conductive plate and respectively transmit a positive and a negative power source potentials. The thickness of the insulative sheet INS1 is 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm, for instance. A reduction is made in a parasitic inductance which is present in the power source line which extends from the power source terminal PS(P) to the power source terminal PS(N) through the semiconductor element for electric power control, thereby suppressing a surge voltage which is developed between the power source terminal PS(P) and the power source terminal PS(N).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for making corrugated packaging components, in which a continuously fed strip of material is fed, by means of a longitudinal shaping tool means, successively into the interspaces between two elongated, parallel spaced shaping bodies of a continuous sequence of such shaping bodies, for the formation of the upper and lower loops of the corrugated strip. The shaped corrugated strip is then glued by means of a glueing apparatus in the peak regions of the lower loops. By using a pressure-applying apparatus, a carrier sheet is subsequently arranged on the glued side of the corrugated strip. The corrugated strip is subsequently cut up into corrugated packaging components by means of a cutting apparatus. These corrugated packaging components are then finally removed from the apparatus according to the invention. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention is directed to a method for rapidly forming a dense pattern of via holes in multilayer electronic circuits in which via holes in the dielectric layers are formed by drilling with an excimer laser under controlled operating conditions. The dielectric layers are unfired layers comprising finely divided particles of dielectric solids dispersed in an ablatable organic medium. The excimer laser beam is split into a plurality of smaller beams arranged in the pattern of a selected segment of the patterned array of via holes. The plurality of beams are directed onto a preselected area of the surface of the unfired layer for ablating the organic medium. These steps are repeated in further preselected areas of the unfired layer until the patterned array of via holes in the unfired layer has been completed.

Abstract: An interference fit up for a high pressure turbine hanger is accomplished by machining and casting features into the hanger which create a spring effect when the hanger is assembled into the support. The spring effect may be accomplished in a variety of ways, including offset radial cut features on the hanger (28) relative to the support, or offset projection features (32,36,40) on the hanger which are concentric with the support (18). The spring effect is then accomplished by a flex or deflection of the ends of the hanger (30,34) to conform to the width of the support, and clearance indentations created during the installation.

Inventor: LIANG PENG
IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 1993-03-11
Abstract: A method for isolating mRNAs as cDNAs employs a polymerase amplification method using at least two oligodeoxynucleotide primers. In one approach, the first primer contains sequence capable of hybridizing to a site immediately upstream of the first A ribonucleotide of the mRNA's polyA tail and the second primer contains arbitrary sequence. In another approach, the first primer contains sequence capable of hybridizing to a site including the mRNA's polyA signal sequence and the second primer contains arbitrary sequence. In another approach, the first primer contains arbitrary sequence and the second primer contains sequence capable of hybridizing to a site including the Kozak sequence. In another approach, the first primer contains a sequence that is substantially complementary to the sequence of a mRNA having a known sequence and the second primer contains arbitrary sequence. In another approach, the first primer contains arbitrary sequence and the second primer contains sequence that is substantially identical to the sequence of a mRNA having a known sequence. The first primer is used as a primer for reverse transcription of the mRNA and the resultant cDNA is amplified with a polymerase using both the first and second primers as a primer set.
