Patent JP-2001503643-A (JP)
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1997-11-20
Abstract: A previously unknown aspartic protease capable of cleavage of proteins by hydrolysis, referred to herein as "napsin", has been cloned from a human liver library. Two cDNA clones have been cloned, sequenced and expressed. These encode isozymes of the protease, referred to as "napsin A" and "napsin B". The gene has also be obtained and partially sequenced. A process for rapid purification of the enzyme using immobilized petpstatin has also been developed, and enzyme isolated from human kidney tissue. Polyclonal antibodies to the enzymes have been made which are also useful for isolation and detection of the enzyme. Similarities to other aspartic proteases, especially cathepsin D, establish the usefulness of the enzyme in diagnostic assays as well as as a protease. Either or both the amount or type of napsin expressed in a particular tissue can be determined using labelled antibodies or nucleotide probes to the napsin.

Filed: 1984-04-03
Abstract: In a deinking process for a fibre stock or slurry air is introduced into the slurry so that air bubbles and ink come into contact, and the ink-laden bubbles are then separated from the slurry. 
<??>In order to provide an improved separation process the invention proposes to independently control the air injection, the mixing of the air and slurry, and the separation process by splitting them into separate steps so as to optimise the separation process. 
<??>Thus, there is provided a separation cell (31) which is fed with slurry from an inlet, an air inlet device, which in one embodiment comprises a porous sintered sleeve (7) to which air pressure is applied, and a mixing section which imposes turbulent flow on the air bubbles and slurry by passing the constituents through a series of turbulence discs (39). The resulting mixture enters the separation cell where the ink-laden bubbles rise to the surface as a foam which is conveniently removed by suction. The reinked slurry being drawn off from the separation cell.

Title: Process for converting methanol to gasoline,alkyl ethers and alkylate liquid hydrocarbons
Inventor: AVIDAN A A
IPC: C10G3/00
Filed: 1987-07-15
Abstract: A multistage process for producing isoalkyl ethers from lower aliphatic oxygenate feedstock, such as methanol. Feedstock is catalytically converted in a primary catalyst stage at elevated temperature in contact with zeolite catalyst to predominantly C2-C7, for example C2-C5, lower olefins comprising isobutylene and isoamylene, by-product water and a minor amount of C8<+>, for example C6<+>, hydrocarbons, followed by fractionation of the C2-C7, for example C2-C5, olefins to recover a C2-C3-rich recycle stream for further catalytic conversion in the primary stage. C4-C7, for example C4-C5, olefins are passed to a second catalytic etherification stage for reaction of isoalkenes with methanol to produce methyl tertiary-butyl ether, methyl isoamylether and higher isoalkyl ethers. The second stage effluent may be fractionated to recover an ether product, C5<+> hydrocarbon liquid product, and unreacted butenes. Advantageously, the unreacted butenes are further reacted with isoparaffin in a third catalytic stage under acid catalysis alkylation conditions, and fractionated to recover C6<+> alkylate liquid, liquid hydrocarbon product. The ethers may be blended with at least one C6<+> hydrocarbon to produce high octane gasoline.

The preferred embodiments include details, which facilitate interlocking of the pit components (2) to form pits of sound construction as well as pits of extended height.  Furthermore in the embodiments, which have a separate base component, the base (14) can be located at selected heights to thereby effectively enable assembly of pit components of selected depths.

Title: Device for dispensing a liquid under pressure with pressure control compartment in liquid compartment with overpressure of 0.1 to 2 bar
Inventor: VLOOSWIJK JOHANNES JACOBUS THO
IPC: B67D7/72
Filed: 1999-03-16
Abstract: A device for storing and dispensing carbonated beverages such as beer is provided. The device has a fluid compartment and a propellant compartment which are connected through a pressure control means. The pressure control means delivers propellant from the propellant compartment to the fluid compartment as the beverage is withdrawn therefrom to maintain a desired excess equilibrium pressure of the propellant in the headspace of the fluid compartment. For carbonated beverages, the propellant is preferably relatively pure CO2, and also ensures proper carbonation to the beverage. A method of dispensing a carbonated beverage is also provided.
