Abstract: The field of the invention is that of systems for data exchange between a transfer device and an "intelligent insertable target" which comprises an electronic memory associated with an access circuit and emulates a magnetic recording medium with respect to a magnetic read and/or write head of the transfer device. According to the invention, the data exchange flow rate of the transfer device being greater than that of the access circuit of the memory of the insertable target, the system comprises means (22) for limiting the flow rate of useful data in the apparent flow rate (30) entering and/or leaving the transfer device (20), in such a way that it is compatible with the flow rate leaving and/or entering the access circuit (13) of the memory (12) of the insertable target (10).   The system of the invention applies especially to data exchange between a microcomputer and an electronic element which can be inserted into the disk head reader of the microcomputer, or into a memory card reader. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process for producing a derivatized immunoglobulin and conjugates prepared therewith are provided. The derivatized immunoglobulin is produced by introducing sulfhydryl groups in the Fc region of an immunoglobulin wherein the Fab portion of the immunoglobulin is not altered. The derivatized immunoglobulin is used to prepare conjugates with various detectable moieties wherein a controlled distance exists between the Fc region of the immunoglobulin and the detectable moiety. The conjugates are particularly useful for performing immunoassays, and exhibit improved longevity, specificity and sensitivity.

Inventor: DUFFIN EDWIN G JR
IPC: A61N1/39
Filed: 1992-09-11
Granted: 1996-04-24
Abstract: A pacemaker system adapted to delivery pacing pulses in the presence of tachycardia or bradycardia. The pacing pulses are delivered via large surface area electrodes of the type normally used to accomplish defibrillation or cardioversion. Delivery of pacing pulses using the large surface area electrodes results in a more simultaneous depolarization of the heart tissue and is believed beneficial to improve hemodynamic efficiency of paced heart beats and in terminating detected tachyarrhythmias.

Abstract: A multi-piece sanding wheel having two sanding members mounted about peripheral portions of a disc-shaped support member that is secured to a drive means. Each sanding member includes a C-shaped backing portion with a sanding strip removably secured about its outer periphery. The sanding strip also has two end sections which are respectfully secured over the ends of the C-shape. In operation, the C-shaped backing portions are attached to the disc-shaped support member with the ends of the two C-shapes substantially adjacent to one another and preferably pinching the end sections of the sanding strips therebetween. The disc-shaped support member of the sanding wheel is separately and removably attached to the drive means wherein the sanding members can be removed from the support member without having to disconnect the support member from the drive means. In this manner, the sanding strips and backing portions can both be easily and quickly removed and replaced, all without having to disconnect the drive means.

L'invention comprend en outre une prérésistance de GRILLE (11) intégrée qui relie une connexion de grille (Ga) extérieure du composant d'étage de sortie à la connexion de GRILLE (Gi) du composant d'étage de sortie (10). Le dispositif anti-surcharge est intégré dans le composant d'étage de sortie et comprend un étage d'adaptation de niveau (30) qui provoque un déplacement de la courbe caractéristique de transmission du composant d'étage de sortie (10) d'une valeur définie de décalage de tension, en raison du fait que la prérésistance de GRILLE (11) est traversée par un courant défini. L'invention comprend en outre un étage limiteur (34) qui limite la valeur cumulée de la tension de DRAIN-SOURCE et d'une tension proportionnelle au courant de DRAIN, à une valeur prédéfinissable. Cette invention permet ainsi de réaliser économiquement un dispositif anti-surcharge sous forme intégrée monolithique, dont la fonction anti-surcharge est améliorée, les limitations physiques du semi-conducteur pouvant être mieux exploitées.

Abstract: Device and its use for the melt-spinning of multifilament yarns from thread-forming polymers at winding speeds of at least 2000 m/min by means of a spinneret, a cooling device for consolidating the threads, a combining member for the filaments and a winding apparatus, an essentially vertical spinning line being provided at least between the nozzle and combining member, the cooling device being a porous tube open in the spinning direction and arranged concentrically relative to the spinning line, and the porous tube being neither preceded nor followed by any further devices feeding or discharging a cooling medium, characterised in that the porous tube is followed by a further non-porous tube. It has proved particularly expedient, at the same time, if the porous tube has a length of 10 to 800 mm. A length of 200 to 800 mm has been shown to be especially advantageous for the further non-porous tube following the porous tube.

Abstract: In order to achieve a high mass resolution in a time-of-flight mass spectrometer with gas phase ion source, the initial-speed components in the acceleration direction of the ions must be kept small. This can be achieved in that the gas or ion beam to be investigated traverses the ion source at right angles relative to the acceleration direction. If acceleration direction and flight direction of the gas or ion beam to be investigated are not parallel, then the flight path is loaded with less gas ballast, the dynamic range of the mass spectrometer being increased as a result. The mass range of such an ion source is limited by the fact that heavy ions can be deflected too far from the axis of the ion source and can get lost as a result. When the deflection field is already located in the acceleration path, the mass range of this ion source can be expanded significantly. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A continuous sanitisation method particularly for the sanitisation of packs containing sterile containers for sterile injectable material so as to prevent cross-contamination by the packs of the containers during handling of the packs to remove the containers therefrom requires sanitisation medium to be admitted to and then removed from a sanitisation chamber comprised by a sanitisation tunnel for the overall handling of the packs in which chamber a relationship between concentration of sanitisation medium in the sanitisation chamber and time which posses a square wave form is maintained. Between each cycle of sanitisation operations within a sanitisation chamber, rinsing with air takes place, which air, when withdrawn, is subject to catalytic decomposition of vapour phase sanitisation medium entrained therein.

Abstract: A door lever assembly for disengaging an unlocked latch of a lockable door latch assembly includes a lever handle (12) rotatably connected to a trim housing (16) supporting a stop plate (34). A cam (42) is operably connected to the lever handle and positioned to rotate in response to rotation of the lever handle, converting its rotational movement to linear movement of a movable slider positioned adjacent to the cam. A lift arm (24) is operably connected to vertical rods (62) of the door latch assembly and an over-ride spring (20) is connected between a slider (30) and the lift arm. The over-ride spring (20) transmits motion of the slider to the lift arm to lift the lift arm and the connected vertical rods when the door latch assembly is in an unlocked position. The over-ride spring compresses in response to slider movement when a blocking slide (45) is positioned to block movement to the lift arm when the door latch assembly is in its locked position, preventing damage to components of the door lever assembly. In an unlocked position, a pivot (70) rotates to control contact between the slider (30) and the stop plate (34). <IMAGE>

In the method, a sample is reacted with a phosphate-binding protein containing (i) an inorganic phosphate ion binding site and (ii) a detectable label that produces a signal whose amplitude changes detectably upon the binding of inorganic phosphate ion to the binding site, under conditions effective to allow binding of phosphate in the sample to the binding site. From a change in signal, the level of inorganic phosphate ion is measured or detected. Also disclosed are phosphate binding proteins for use in the method.
