a specified application manner. A method of laminating optical
disks (D) comprising the steps of placing a lower disk single sheet
(D1) on a turntable (1), applying an adhesive agent (R1) in doughnut
form to the lower disk single sheet (D1), placing an upper disk

placing the upper disk single sheet (D2) on the lower disk single
sheet (D1 ) , and spreading the adhesive agent (%2) between the two

Abstract: A system and method for interleaving data in a wireless transmitter are disclosed, where bits from the input data stream are sent to downstream processing without being stored in memory. According to a first example embodiment, a first radio frame of data from an input code block is sent downstream, and the remaining radio frames from the code block are stored in the memory buffer. The first interleaving pattern can be applied, for example, as data is written to or read from the buffer. The stored radio frames are then read out as needed by the downstream processing. According to a second example embodiment, further savings in memory can be achieved by discarding bits that are not currently needed for processing then recalculating them at a later time. A first radio frame of data from an input code block is sent downstream without being stored in the memory buffer.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé d'extraction d'un inhibiteur de protéase d'un tissu végétal. L'extraction de l'inhibiteur de protéase débute par l'addition d'une solution aqueuse, sans alcool d'un acide organique et d'un sel sur le tissu végétal. La solution d'extraction et le tissu végétal sont pulvérisés pour réduire la dimension moyenne des particules du tissu végétal de manière à améliorer les efficacités d'extraction. Une solution d'extraction de rapport massique compris entre environ 1:1 et environ 1:10 est ajoutée au tissu végétal. Pour extraire l'inhibiteur II de protéinase de tubercules de pommes de terre, la solution d'extraction fait appel à l'acide formique et au chlorure de sodium et la dimension moyenne des particules est réduite à entre 100 et 1500 microns. Ledit procédé s'est avéré être économique et permet d'obtenir des rendements élevés d'inhibiteur de protéinase cible à des échelles commerciales.
