Abstract: The proposed alarm-triggering closure device for a door or window (1) which has to be made secure has a first fastening device (5) which must be breached by force, a second fastening device which must also be breached by (greater) force, and means (8) for triggering an alarm in the event that the first fastening device (5) is breached. If the first fastening device (5) has been breached, the movement of the locking device in the opening direction of the door or window (1) is restricted by the second fastening device. The first fastening device (5) is formed by the metal fittings mounted or incorporated in the window (1) or door, and the second is an auxiliary fastening mounted on the door or window (1); at least one sealing section (6) engages behind or in at least one opposing stop element (7) when locked, and, once the first fastening device (5) has been breached and the door or window wing (3) has subsequently opened to a predetermined extent, the sealing section (6) moves with a lateral retardation against the opposing stop element (7) to restrict the opening movement. Once the first fastening device has been breached, an alarm, such as a silent alarm, is transmitted by radio or telephone.

Abstract: A circulating fluidized bed reactor has substantially vertical walls with cooling elements, defining the interior of the reactor chamber, and a device for introducing fluidization gas at the bottom of the fluidized bed reactor. Particulate material is introduced into the reactor. A separator separates particulate material from the exhaust gases, the separator being in connection with the reactor chamber. A return duct is connected to the separator. A bubbling fluidized bed is adjacent the reactor and provided with a heat exchanger for cooling particulate material, and side walls, rear and front walls having cooling elements in fluid communication with the cooling elements of the reactor chamber; and a discharge channel with a separate fluidizing gas source for discharging particles from the bottom of the bubbling bed to adjacent the top of the bubbling bed in the reactor chamber. A method of operating a circulating fluidized bed reactor, comprises the steps of maintaining a circulating fluidized bed in the reactor; separating particulate material from the gas in the separator and returning separated material back to the reactor; introducing particulate material into the bubbling fluidized bed above the upper surface of the bubbling fluidized bed; fluidizing the particulate material in the bubbling fluidized bed and recovering heat from the fluidized particulate material by the heat exchanger; discharging cooled particulate material from the bubbling fluidized bed at its lower section into the lower section of the discharge channel; fluidizing the discharged particulate material in the discharge channel; and introducing particulate material from the upper section of the discharge channel into the reactor chamber.

Abstract: Human myelin basic protein (h-MBP) has a molecular weight of 18.5 KD and contains 170 amino acid residues. Synthetic peptides ranging in length from about 8 to 25 residues and covering the entire length of the protein have been produced. Antibodies to h-MBP (anti-MBP) were found to be neutralized by the synthetic peptides, in vitro, which span the h-MBP from about amino acid residue 61 to about amino acid residue 106. The peptides, which cover both the amino (about residues 1 to 63) and carboxy (about residues 117 to 162) terminals of h-MBP did not neutralize purified anti-MBP. Intrathecal administration of peptide MBP75-95, either as a single dose, or as repeated injections for periods up to 10 weeks, produced complete binding-neutralization of free (F) anti-MBP with no change in bound (B) levels. A control peptide MBP35-58 had no effect on F or B anti-MBP levels. Intravenous administration of MBP75-95 resulted in significant decline of F and B CSF anti-MBP levels over a period of one month. Administration of MBP synthetic peptides to MS patients either intrathecally or intravenously did not have any adverse neurological effects and systemic complications did not occur. The MBP epitope for MS anti-MBP has been localized to an area between Pro85 and Pro96.

Abstract: Process for the preparation of 3-phenylpropionic acid in which 3-phenylpropanal is subjected to an oxidation, at elevated temperature, in particular at a temperature of between 40 DEG  and 80 DEG  C., using a medium containing molecular oxygen. A high degree of conversion and a high selectivity are obtained. The starting material 3-phenylpropanal can be prepared in a suitable manner through the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde in the presence of a Pd-containing catalyst, after which the reaction mixture obtained can without intermediate further processing be used in the oxidation reaction. The combination of the two process steps constitutes a simple, commercially attractive process for the preparation of 3-phenylpropionic acid using cinnamaldehyde as a starting material. 3-phenylpropionic acid can be used in particular in the preparation of pharmaceuticals such as HIV protease inhibitors.

Abstract: The present invention relates to processing speech coding parameters in a telecommunication system. The speech coding parameters of a speech frame, produced by a speech encoder, are divided into groups, i.e. so-called virtual channels, in which speech parameter error correction, channel coding and processing of error-free or erroneous speech parameters are performed independently. At the receiving end, the processing (505) of erroneous and error-free speech parameters can thus be controlled independently on each virtual transmission channel (502) according to the quality of each virtual transmission channel. The speech parameters of the high-quality virtual channels of a speech frame can thus be processed as error-free, replacing the speech coding parameters of the low-quality virual channels only. The independently processed (505) speech parameters of the virtual channels are thus reassembled (507) into a speech frame, which is applied to decoding. Since part of the information of also erroneous speech frames is utilized, the use of speech information received from a transmission channel can be increased in speech decoding, which reduces for instance interruptions occurring in speech as compared with a situation where all speech frames erroneous even to a slight degree were discarded. The increased and more focused error indication also reduces the number of undetected errors and thus reduces significantly the worst audible disturbances.

Abstract: The hPMS2 gene encodes a protein which is involved in DNA mismatch repair and is mutated in a subset of patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC). The previously published hPMS2 cDNA sequence lacks an upstream in-frame stop codon preceding the presumptive initiating methionine. To further evaluate the 5' terminus of the hPMS2 coding region, we isolated additional cDNA clones, RT-PCR products, and the corresponding 5' genomic segment of the hPMS2 locus. The hPMS2 gene transcripts were found to have heterogeneous but collinear 5' termini, one of which contained an in-frame termination codon preceding the initiating methionine. In addition, a novel gene encoding a 34.5 kDa polypeptide was found to transcriptionally initiate within hPMS2 from the opposite strand.
