Abstract: The present invention proposes a signaling method for transparent data services in a wireless telecommunication system, which services transmit use data on a use data channel (TCH) separately from associated signaling data transmitted on a signaling channel (SACCH), wherein signaling data transmitted on the signaling channel (SACCH) are subjected to an enhanced modulation method which carries more signaling data. Also, the present invention proposes such a signaling method for transparent data services in a wireless telecommunication system, which services transmit use data on a use data channel separately from associated signaling data transmitted on a signaling channel, wherein data transmission is based on a HSCSD configuration such that a plurality of at least two time slots of a TDMA frame are grouped to define a HSCSD channel and one of said grouped time slots is defined as a master channel carrying signaling data, and at least one of the other time slots is used as an auxiliary signaling and/or data channel. Thereby, outband signaling is enabled without any disturbances to the transparent data flow. Moreover, an auxiliary data channel is provided without disturbance to the transparent data flow. In summary, the present invention removes previously present limitations regarding available transparent data services in wireless telecommunication systems.

Abstract: A closure device has a hollow body with a side opening for liquid, an open end, and a closure end portion, and is slidably engaged in an end-piece screw-threadedly engaged on the end part of a neck of a bottle. The closure device seals the bottle when pressed down into the neck until its closure end portion seals against a ridge defining the end mouth of the outlet conduit constituted by the neck and its end-piece. When the device is raised to engage a lower bead in a groove of the end-piece, liquid can be poured out of the bottle by way of the interior of the hollow body and the opening while air enters the bottle by way of an air inlet region and venting passages leading to an air outlet port. An inner barrier to liquid is formed by contact between the widest part of a skirt of the hollow body and the internal surface of the neck.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for providing bacterial or yeast cells with the capacity to produce a protein, the amino acid sequence of which comprises at least one unconventional amino acid. The method involves (a) introducing at least one missense mutation in a target codon of a gene encoding a protein required for the growth of the bacterial or yeast cells, where the mutated protein synthesized from the mutated gene is not functional in the bacterial or yeast cells. The method also involves (b) selecting the bacterial or yeast cells obtained in (a) in a culture medium which (1) does not contain a nutrient compensating for the loss of functionality of the mutated protein and (2) contains an unconventional amino acid which restores the functionality of the protein required for growth of the bacterial or yeast cells, in which the unconventional amino acid is that encoded by the target codon. The method also involves culturing the bacterial or yeast cells obtained in (b) in a culture medium containing the amino acid encoded by the target codon.
