Abstract: This invention describes methods for enhancing carbon flow into a pathway of a host cell to enhance the biosynthetic production of compounds therefrom, the host cells being selected based on being pheno-typically Pts - /glucose + .  Such host cells are capable of transporting glucose without consuming PEP, resulting in conservation of PEP which can be re-directed into the pathway in order to enhance the production of desired compounds along the pathway.  Pts - /glucose +  mutants have been shown to be advantageous for the enhanced production of the aromatic amino acids.

Abstract: A composition is disclosed which can hydrophilify the surface of a member to impart an antifogging property to the surface of the member. The composition for hydrophilifying the surface of the member comprises at least (a) photocatalytic particles of a metallic oxide, (b) a precursor capable of forming a silicone resin film or a precursor capable of forming a silica film, and (c) a solvent, the total content of the photocatalytic particle and the solid matter of the precursor in the composition being 0.01 to 5% by weight. The hydrophilic property can be imparted simply by applying the composition onto a member and drying or heating the composition applied to the member. The resultant hydrophilic thin film is transparent and, hence, does not sacrifice the transparency and appearance of a member required to be transparent. Further, the surface of a member with the above composition applied thereto has such a property that water droplets adhered thereon can be immediately removed by vaporization and the surface is less likely to be soiled and, even when a contaminant is adhered thereon, can easily release the contaminant therefrom. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Methods for making Z-axis interconnections between adjacent circuit layers (20, 21) with electrically conductive traces (24, 25), in multi-layered circuits, include connecting a conducting member (30) of a deformable material to a circuit board layer and depositing an adhesive layer (34) over an adjacent circuit board layer.  The adjacent circuit layers are aligned, with the conducting member substantially collinear with the conductive traces of the adjacent circuit layers, and the circuit layers are brought together by pressure, such that the conducting member penetrates the adhesive layer and deforms until it 'cracks'. The cracking exposes fresh (unoxidized) material that contacts a conductive trace, joining the circuit layers together and creating a low resistance electrical connection. The adhesive serves to bound expansion of the deformable conducting member, reducing any potential conctacts with adjacent conducting members. Circuit interconnects (circuit assemblies) made by this method are also disclosed.

Abstract: A rotary blade assembly for a rotary mower that provides an equivalent cut with a substantial reduction in necessary driving power of a mower. The rotary blade assembly includes a support structure (22) fixedly disposed to a rotary drive shaft, at a height sufficient to avoid or to minimize contact with vegetation, such that the rotary drive shaft rotates the support structure about an axis. The rotary blade assembly includes a plurality of cutting elements (10A-16B) that project downwardly and outwardly from the support structure to a predetermined distance such that the cutting elements are positioned to avoid contact with the ground and to cover the area to be cut in a more uniform way. The support structure of the rotary blade assembly can be a support arm having the cutting elements spaced over a length thereof. Alternatively, the rotary blade can be formed using a plate-shaped member (76) having projecting portions extending downwardly for use as cutting elements. The projecting portions can be integral with the plate-shaped member or separately attached thereto. In other embodiments, a plurality of rotary blades are used in place of a single large conventional blade spanning the same width, whereby power requirements are reduced and a more uniform cut results. A blunt extension (240) can be secured to or integral with the lower end of the drive shaft to prevent the cutting elements of the mower blade from contacting and disturbing the ground surface in uneven terrain. <IMAGE>
