Title: Method for the preservation of biologically-active material
Inventor: WORRALL ERIC EDWARD
IPC: C12N1/04
Filed: 2000-06-21
Abstract: Biologically-active material can be preserved by a method of desiccation, without lyophilisation, in a matrix of glassy trehalose. The method involves forming a coacervate of the biologically-active material and chitosan and then dehydrating mixture of coacervate and trehalose solution. In a cycle time much shorter than a typical freeze drying process biologically-active material, such as viruses, proteins and nucleic acids, can be preserved to provide a material that can be rehydrated. The invention is especially useful for the production of vaccines from preserved material.

Title: Process and device for manufacturing products of the tobacco industry having variable tobacco density
Inventor: BABEY JACQUES
IPC: A24C5/18
Filed: 1994-04-22
Abstract: When manufacturing a cigarette which is completely or partly formed of strands or sides of expanded tobacco or short strands, or else containing a smaller amount of tobacco, difficulties are encountered in obtaining a cigarette which has an acceptable measured compressibility value. By providing a cigarette-manufacturing machine (1) with a cam (3) which has at least one additional bearing surface (32A, 33A, 34A, 35A) it is possible, just before the operation (15) of nipping the top off the twist (20), to compress a certain number of regions (22) of the said twist, thereby increasing the tobacco density in these regions. A cigarette including one or more regions (22) with a tobacco density which has been increased in this way has a measured compressibility value which is equivalent to a normal cigarette. <IMAGE>

Title: Ink tank and method of manufacture therefor
Inventor: MIYAZAKI KYOTA
IPC: B41J2/175
Filed: 1999-12-17
Abstract: An ink tank (1) comprises a housing detachably mountable on a liquid jet recording apparatus, which is capable of retaining liquid directly in the interior thereof, a supply portion (13) for supplying liquid retained in the housing to the recording apparatus and a communication portion (12) with the air outside for communicating the interior of the housing with the air outside. For this ink tank, the supply portion (13) and the communication portion (12) with the air outside are integrally formed, and at the same time, a plate member is provided to make the interior of the housing a closed space by joining the plate member to the housing, and then, erroneous installation prevention portions are arranged for the plate member to prevent the installation on the position other than specifically designated for the liquid jet recording apparatus. With the structure thus arranged, the ink tank (1) makes it possible to easily enhance the dimensional precision of the coupling portion with the recording apparatus, and the erroneous installation prevention portions as well. Thus, without depending on the precision of an ink tank as a whole, it is possible to enhance the reliability of the installation on or coupling with the recording apparatus. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and apparatus for detecting modified color burst signals to prevent the copying of a video program
Inventor: BRILL GEROW D
IPC: H04N5/913
Filed: 1998-03-20
Abstract: A video signal is modified so that a television receiver will provide a normal color picture but a video tape recorder will detect the modification and prohibit the video signal from being recorded. The color burst phase of the video signal is modified so as to make inferior quality pictures in the event that the resulting modified video signal is recorded. A disabling circuit (22) associated with the recorder (20) detects the presence of the modified video signal. This detection is done by determining the presence of modified color burst phase signals in even a single television line of the video signal. A control signal (26) is produced when the modified color burst phase signal is detected, which disables the recorder (20). If no modified color burst phase signal is detected, the recorder (20) is enabled to allow an acceptable recording of the video signal.

Title: Methods for production of hybrid wheat
Inventor: FELDMAN MOSHE
IPC: A01H1/04
Filed: 1998-05-14
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for the production of hybrid wheat based on the ability to stably maintaining a genic male-sterile female parental line of common and durum wheat It also provides a male-sterile female line homozygous for a recessive male-sterility allele and for a dominant pollen-killing allele, and a maintainer line which is readily and stably propagated. The maintainer line is isogenic to the female line but has an alien engineered chromosome carrying a dominant male-fertility allele that restores fertility to the maintainer line, a recessive pollen-killing allele that is susceptible to the killing effect of the native pollen killer thus preventing transmission of this chromosome to the female line, and one or more selectable markers that facilitate the maintenance of the maintainer itself. The invention also provides procedures for converting any desired cultivar into male-sterile female line and into a maintainer line.
