Abstract: A process for preparing an optically-enriched chiral epoxide of formula (I), wherein R<1>, R<2> and R<3> are each independently selected from H, R, R-CO- and R-O-CO-, each R independently being substantially a hydrocarbon group of up to 20 carbon atoms, and X is an alkyl or cycloalkyl group of up to 10 carbon atoms, provided that -CO-X is not enolisable, which comprises the asymmetric epoxidation of a corresponding prochiral alkene of the formula (II): R<1>R<2>C=CR<3>-CO-X, by reaction with an oxidant in the presence of a chiral catalyst. Many optically-enriched epoxides (I) are novel.

Abstract: The method uses a regulation circuit, receiving an ionisation signal (Ui) from an ionisation electrode, for regulation of the gas/air ratio to provide a required lambda value corresponding to a required ionisation signal value (Uis). The regulation is effected within a limited regulation range (RB), for ensuring acceptable emission levels, the upper limit (Uio) of this range lying below the maximum value of the ionisation signal and the lower limit (Uiu) lying above the dangerous emission level. A cut- out signal for the burner is provided when the ionisation signal is outside the regulation range for longer than a given interval.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/DE97/00793 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 21, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 21, 1998 PCT Filed Apr. 21, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/39702 PCT Pub. Date Oct. 30, 1997The invention concerns a screw-in type artificial hip joint socket with a special thread for implantation in human beings. Hip joint sockets of this type usually have a flat thread with parallel teeth flanks or a triangular thread with a neutral teeth position, the axial pitch being conventionally constant. However, such embodiments are unfavourable because they do not take sufficiently into account the forces which arise during implantation as well as during the intended use, or they cause an unnecessarily extensive bone bed destruction during an eventually required explantation. With the invention a purposefully optimization of the hip joint socket thread is provided, wherein the thread profile, the angular orientation of the thread teeth and a non-linear thread pitch is utilized, in order to ensure an effortless screwing, a stable seat in the long term and an unproblematic explantation (FIG. 3).

Abstract: The invention relates to an improved method for allergy diagnostics, particularly for food allergy diagnostics, characterized in that IgE antibodies obtained from an individual are exposed to an agent that renders the IgE antibodies substantially incapable of reacting with a saccharidic epitope of an antigen of said antigenic material; and/or to a protease-digested portion of said antigenic material; and to a native, i.e., non-digested portion of said antigenic material; whereupon the formation of IgE/antigen-complexes is detected and evaluated with regard to the determination of unreacted antigens and/or of clinically relevant IgE/antigen complexes in which the IgE antibody is bound to an essentially peptidic epitope of an antigen. The present invention also relates to a diagnostic kit for use in one or more of the aforementioned methods, particularly for food allergy diagnostics in vitro or in vivo And to a method for determining an allergic response of an individual to an orally or nasally ingestible antigenic material by means of an improved skin test. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: An instrument and use of an instrument serving for correcting the shape of an external ear, for example jug ears, lop ears, cop ears or Stahl's ears. Correction takes place by, from two sides, affecting a chosen zone of the ear for a period of time with forces for giving the cartilage of that zone a permanent deformation. The instrument comprises a matrix and a patrix interconnected by a hinge and made to, from each side, interactingly affect a chosen zone of the ear for a relatively long period of time with forces for giving the cartilage of that zone a permanent deformation. The hinge can by means of a screw be fixed in the correcting position until the deformation of the cartilage is permanent. A deformed ear can by means of the invention more easily and effectively than known per se be corrected non-surgically.

Abstract: The invention involves a process for artificially triggering an avalanche. The invention process includes a first step of filling at least one flexible envelope with an explosive fluid and a second step of triggering an explosion of the aforesaid fluid within each envelope, each envelope being destroyed by the explosion of the fluid. The destruction of the envelope allows for propagation of an aerial spherical overpressure wave which will affect an optimal area of the blanket of snow to be removed and will shake the aforesaid area and trigger an avalanche. The invention also involves a device for applying this process, the aforesaid device including at least one envelope to contain the explosive fluid, and means to trigger the explosion of this fluid within each envelope.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de transmettre des données par des impulsions de base qui sont synchronisées par une séquence d'impulsions de base de synchronisation et modifiées par le canal de transmission et par le récepteur, mais qui à la sortie de ce dernier génèrent une réponse caractéristique d'impulsion de base système. Avec ce procédé, les différentes réponses se superposent de façon linéaire. Le traitement de ces réponses superposées dans un filtre transversal discontinu permet d'éliminer les interférences de symboles et les interférences sur voie commune, d'atténuer le brouillage et de détecter plusieurs signaux d'abonnés superposés. La détection obtenue par ce procédé est simple et comparable à celle obtenue avec la technique JD-AMRC.
