Patent EP-0108301-A2 (EP)
Title: Method of heterologous cloning of gene in bacillus microorganism
Inventor: GROSCH JOSEPHINE
IPC: C12N9/54
Filed: 1983-10-19
Abstract: A method for heterologous cloning of a gene encoding α-amylase, protease, amyloglucosidase or glucose isomerase. The method involves the use of a bifunctional plasmid which can replicate in both E. coli and B. subtilis, and contains at least two selectable markers. A gene fragment for the enzyme is incorporated into the plasmid, leaving at least one functional selectable marker and a nonfunctional marker, producing a mixture of recombinant hybrid plasmids and the original bifunctional plasmid. This mixture is incorporated into E. coli microorganisms and transformants seiected. The transformants which contain the recombinant plasmid are identified, and plasmid DNA extracted. The plasmid DNA is used to transform Bacillus host microorganisms and transformants containing the recombinant plasmids are selected by means of the functional selectable marker.

Abstract: An anode for hydrogen oxidation in a fuel cell is formed from a host matrix including at least one transition element which is structurally modified by the incorporation of at least one modifier element to improve its catalytic properties. The catalytic body is based on a disordered non-equilibrium material designed to have a high density of catalytically active sites, resistance to poisioning, and long operating life. Modifier elements, including Ti, Mo, Zr, Mg, V, Si or Al, structurally modify the local chemical environments of a nickel or other transition element host matrix to form the catalytic materials of the anode. The improved low overvoltage catalytic materials of the anode of the present invention increase the operating efficiencies of fuel cells employing such anodes. The catalytic materials can be deposited as a layer on the surface of porous electrode substrates to form a gas diffusion anode or can be formed as a gas diffusion electrode.

Abstract: A control system for causing a vehicle, such as a ship, to follow a track comprising trach segments TS1, TS2 whose position and heading are specified, in accordance with a weighted function of track error and heading error. 
     On changing from following a track segment TS1 to the next segment TS2 at P1 the vehicle will overshoot, as shown by curve A. The invention provides for the weighting factor for the heading to be temporarily increased when the vehicle changes track segments, thus reducing the overshoot as shown by curve B. A further improvement, indicated by curve C, is obtained by fixing the changeover point at P2, in advance of the track segment intersection, the amount of the advance being a function of vehicle characteristics and speed.

Abstract: A filter for the purification of exhaust gases (21), especially from diesel engines, is proposed which has a large volume filter element (14) of a material with as high a thermal capacity as possible. If the filter (which has a catalytic coating acting on the oxidation of soot) has a sufficiently large storage capacity, a balance can be achieved between the deposition and burning off of the soot during use of the internal-combustion engine (10) or a vehicle containing this engine. In this way, the soot particles can be virtually continuously burnt off directly by the exhaust gases. Such a filter can be supplemented by the measures (15-19) which raise the engine load and are used sporadically. Such a filter can be designed such that it has a silencing effect, so that there is no need for a further silencer. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Wheel speed (VR) and braking pressure (PB) applied to a wheel are continuously measured and utilized to estimated values from a mathematical system model, to obtain the physical values: coefficient of friction ( mu ), vehicle speed (VF), slope of a slip curve (d mu /dS), slip (S), and coefficient of friction of a stationary-rotary brake couple structure. At least one of the physical values so obtained, and preferably the coefficient of friction ( mu ), vehicle speed, and slope of wheel slip curve are used to control braking pressure being applied to the wheel. Braking pressure can be controlled for example for braking in accordance with coefficient of friction and slope of the friction-slip curve, for example to operate the wheel just before the coefficient of friction drops as the wheel begins to slip. Spinning of a wheel can be avoided by controlling the braking pressure to be below slippage value.
