Inventor: MATSON STEPHEN L
IPC: C12M1/40
Filed: 1988-03-31
Granted: 1995-03-29
Abstract: This invention relates to novel methods for facilitating the enzymatic resolution of racemic mixtures of esters, which are derivatized with groups which enhance the esters' aqueous solubility, in an extractive member reactor where the enzyme is placed alternatively either (1) in the aqueous phase, (2) in association with the membrane, or (3) in the aqueous phase and in association with the membrane, wherein the aqueous ester phase is contacted with one side of the membrane, and where an organic extractive phase is contacted with the other side of the membrane, wherein the extractive phase serves to remove the resolving reaction product. Of particular significance regarding this invention is its use of water soluble esters that are derivatized with groups which enhance their aqueous solubility and their reactivity with enzymatic resolving methods which are mediated in an aqueous environment. Novel methods were utilized to prepare these esters, for use in this invention's methods for enzymatically resolving the racemic mixtures of the esters, to produce the separate chiral isomers of the racemic mixture. The importance of the resolution of the separate chiral isomers of the racemic mixtures resides in the isolation of the isomers which frequently have different biological activities.

Abstract: The arrangement for joining a distribution device (1, 5) for a fluid to a fluid supply conduit (2, 3) simplifies and improves the previously known connections in which one of the parts to be joined is designed with a hole (4) and the other is designed with a nozzle (5), seated tightly in the hole, having a through-channel (6). For this purpose it is provided that, between the hole wall (4) and the nozzle (5), there is clamped in a radially fixed manner a bush-shaped hard-elastic intermediate element (7) of plastic or hard rubber in such a manner that it is sealed against the abutting surfaces and transmits axial forces, acting in a frictionally locking manner against the insertion direction on the nozzle (5), onto the hole wall. Embodiments in which the nozzle (5) and the intermediate element (7) interact in the manner of a valve, so that the fluid flow to the distribution device (1) can be regulated by changing the position of the nozzle (5) relative to the intermediate element (7), are particularly advantageous. In these embodiments, the intermediate element (7) serves three functions, as a sealing, attachment and regulating element. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Described is a method for applying optically readable code markings (14) on the surface of bottles (10) made of plastic or glass by producing depressions in the surface by means of a laser (12) in such a way that the base of each code marking (14) is formed as a diffusing reflector. For automatically reading the code markings, a sensor (16) constructed from optical fibres having centrally arranged emission optical fibres and radially arranged receiving optical fibres is used. The sensor forms an angle of less than 90 DEG  with the bottle surface, so that light is reflected into the sensor only at points on the surface where code markings (14) are present. The code markings (14) are simple to apply and can be reliably read.

Abstract: A global positioning system (GPS) receiver having a common radio frequency section and a separate digital signal processing channel for each of a plurality of satellite signals which are simultaneously being received and processed by the receiver in order to calculate the position, velocity or other desired parameters of the receiver. The radio frequency section receives and processes both of the standard satellite signals on different frequency L1 and L2 carriers in order to provide the multi-channel digital section signals from which the relative phase of the carriers from each of the plurality of satellites may be determined. Particular mutually coherent local oscillator and digital clock frequencies are selected in order to minimize the complexity of the receiver without creating any undesired side effects. A high resolution relative phase measurement is made in each digital section by averaging the number of phase shifting pulses over a period of time that are generated by a phase locked loop that is locked onto an L-band carrier frequency, that average incremental phase being added to a base phase measurement obtained simultaneously in each of the digital processing channels.
