Title: Process and device for separating solvents and oils.
Inventor: VOM DAHL UWE
IPC: C23G5/04
Filed: 1989-12-15
Abstract: Oil-solvent solutions are separated by azeotropic distillation. Despite the reduction in the proportion of solvent in the oil thereby attained, the latter is regarded as special waste. The new process provides virtually solvent-free oil. In it the oil-solvent solution is agitated with dry gas. The solvent-enriched gas is removed and dried by abrupt cooling. The solvent which condenses out and the dried gas are removed and the solvent-free oil left behind.

IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 1990-02-22
Abstract: A vector for the integration of a gene into the genetic material of a mammalian host cell such that the gene may be expressed by the host cell. The vector comprises a promoter and the gene and an immunoglobulin dominant control region derived from the mouse  lambda immunoglobulin gene locus capable of eliciting host cell-type restricted, integration site independent, copy number dependent expression of the said gene. The DNaseI super hypersensitive site exemplified are i) about 2.35kb upstream of the CAP site of the rearranged  lambda 1 gene ii) about 2.5kb upstream of the genomic V lambda 2 segment or iii) about 30kb downstream of the rearranged lambda 1 gene. Mammalian host cells transformed with the vector are disclosed as are transgenic mammals transformed with the vector and a method of producing a polypeptide comprising culturing a transformed mammalian cell. A method of gene therapy comprising the steps of i) removing stem cells from the body of a mammal, ii) optionally killing stem cells remaining in the body, iii) transforming the removed stem cells with the vector containing a gene deficient or absent in the body, and iv) replacing the transformed stem cells in the body is also disclosed. Also disclosed is functional mouse immunoglobulin  lambda 1 enhancer consisting of a DNA sequence comprising all or a functional part of the DNA sequence between the EcoRI site 3.8 kb downstream of the Xho I site in the rearranged mouse  lambda 1 gene and the SnaBI site 10 kb downstream of this Xho I site. The functional mouse immunoglobulin lambda 1 enhancer may comprise all or a functional part of i) the 1.3 kb first HindIII to HindIII DNA fragment downstream of the EcoRI site 3.8 kb downstream of the Xho I site in the rearranged mouse  lambda 1 gene, ii) the 3.3 kb HindIII to HindIII DNA fragment downstream of the EcoRI site 3.8 kb downstream of the Xho I site in the rearranged mouse  lambda 1 gene and spanning the SnaBI site 10 kb downstream of this Xho I site.

Abstract: Un procédé et un dispositif permettent de localiser des objets pauvres en protons dans un environnement aquatique, notamment de localiser des sous-marins (13) ou des mines dans la mer (11) ou dans des eaux intérieures. A cet effet, l'interférence magnétique provoquée par l'objet par rapport à son environnement est détectée par résonance magnétique nucléaire protonique. Le dispositif comprend au moins une bobine émettrice (15) d'excitation de la résonance nucléaire au moyen d'un champ alternatif électromagnétique et un organe récepteur de détection de signaux de résonance. Afin de pouvoir localiser avec haute précision également des objets non ferromagnétiques, on crée dans un volume d'eau supérieur à 50 m3, de préférence considérablement supérieur à 1000 m3, les conditions requises pour l'apparition d'une résonance magnétique nucléaire de protons de l'eau. On surveille le volume afin de dépister des signaux de résonance; des réductions de ces signaux de résonance sont détectées.

Date Mar. 21, 1991.A device (10) to assist manual tightening of a rope passed over a load on a vehicle. In use, the device (10) is first attached to the rope by passing the rope from the upper side of the device (10) through guide (12) to the lower side, then passing the rope up into the lower notch (15) and over the upper side of the device (10) and into the upper notch (14) so that pulling the rope downwardly will secure the device (10) to the rope. Tensioning may then be achieved by forming a loop in a portion of the free end of the rope, passing the loop around a fixed anchorage site on the vehicle and locating a portion of the loop over the pair of arms (16) and (17). The free end of rope is then passed behind and over the portion of rope extending between the pair of arms (16) and (17) and pulled downwardly, thereby urging the rope that extends between the pair of tensioning arms downwardly and causing tension to be applied to the rope. The taut rope is then secured by tying the free end thereof to a fixed anchorage site.

Abstract: Disclosed are monoclonal antibody substances specifically immunologically reactive with native and recombinant human immune interferon ("IFN-γ") and with polypeptides having amino acid sequences substantially duplicative of sequences extant in IFN-γ. In a presently preferred embodiment, antibody substances are produced by new mouse-mouse hybridoma tumor cell line A.T.C.C. HB 8291 and are immunoreactive with native IFN-γ, with recombinant IFN-γ and polypeptide analogs thereof, and with a nonadecapeptide whose amino acid sequence duplicates that of the final nineteen amino acid residues of the carboxyl terminal of IFN-γ. These preferred antibody substances, while displaying high affinity for IFN-γ, do not neutralize antiviral biological activity of the interferon. They are usefully employed in the detection, quantification and affinity purification of IFN-γ and IFN-γ analogs as well as in investigations relating to the mode of biological action of IFN-γ.

Abstract: A device suitable for securing objects such as plant pot holders removably to a beam-like support comprises a strap (10) at least sufficient in length to embrace the support, means (18) to tighten the strap about the support and at least one coupling element (24) cooperative with the strap. The coupling element(s) (24) if separable from the strap (10) engage with the strap (10) over a sufficient length to limit circumferential swing of a secured object, for example by way of a buckle or a flat hook or plurality of hooks. The linkages of each coupling element (24) to the strap (10) and to the object are preferably mutually displaced such that the linkage to the object bears against the support and the force distorting the strap is thereby limited. Preferably the strap (10) is tightenable by a male screw (16) engaging with a rack of teeth (22) upstanding from its surface. Preferably the male screw (16) is disengageable and tapered and when in use is angled to the plane of the rack. The strap (10), screw (16) and coupling element (24) may be made of a plastics material such as a crystalline polymer containing fibrous reinforcement.

Abstract: A chuck for tool inserts, particularly for screwdriver bits (11), possesses a base body (4) having a hexagon socket (8) for the hexagonal shank (10) of the screwdriver bit (11). Mounted rotatably on the base body (4) is a coupling sleeve (12) which carries a locking plate (14) projecting, in front of the front end of the base body (4), into the hexagon socket (8). The locking plate (14) possesses a central perforation (15), the outer profile of which corresponds to the cross-sectional profile of the hexagon socket (8). If the coupling sleeve (12) is turned relative to the base body (4) into a release position, the profile of the perforation of the locking plate (14) comes into coincidence with the cross-sectional profile of the hexagon socket (8), so that a screwdriver bit (11) can be inserted or removed. If the coupling sleeve (12) is turned, under the action of a spring (16), into a locking position, the locking plate (14) engages into a catch groove (26) of the shank (10) of the screwdriver bit (11) and holds the latter positively in the hexagon socket (8).
