Abstract: The present invention relates to decellularized vascular prostheses that are resistant to thrombus occlusion and have a low level of immunogenicity. The vascular prostheses are denuded of cells, and coated with an anti-thrombogenic agent and a growth factor that promotes recellularization and further reduces the immunogenicity. The prostheses have high mechanical strength, resist aneurysm rupture, and allow for secure surgical sutures while maintaining structural integrity. The present invention provides vascular prostheses that are blood vessels, valves or portions of vessels containing valves. The present invention is also useful for coating synthetic vascular stents.

IPC: B65F1/16

Abstract: The invention relates to a cover for large-volume refuse containers, particularly for front discharge system containers. The cover is comprised of a number of cover parts, which are joined to one another in an articulated manner, whereby the rear cover part is pivotally mounted on the refuse container by means of hinges, and the pivotal range is limited by a catching device. The aim of the invention is to ensure the storage of refuse or valuable materials both when placing them into the large refuse container as well as when emptying the same, and to eliminate the drawbacks associated with the prior art. To this end, the invention provides that the rear part of the cover fastened to the hinges comprises, starting from the hinge area, an overlapping width of the cover that at least overlaps the container frame and terminates outside of the overlapping in sides, which are each perpendicular to the cover, in the form of an enclosure, and said sides extend up to the vicinity of an articulated connection to the front cover parts. Particularly during a lifting and tipping of a cover of the aforementioned type on a front discharge system container, the advantageous results can be recognized due to the fact that, in the emptying position, the refuse or valuable material can no longer get beyond control but falls into the refuse collection vehicle while being confined between both sides.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel engineered derivatives of green fluorescent protein (GFP) which have an amino acid sequence which is modified by amino acid substitution compared with the amino acid sequence of wild type Green Fluorescent Protein (SEQ ID NO: 2). The modified GFPs exhibit enhanced fluorescence relative to wtGFP when expressed in non-homologous cells at temperatures above 30° C., and when excited at about 490 nm compared to the parent proteins, i.e. wtGFP. An example of a preferred protein is F64L-S175G-E222G-GFP. The modified GFPs provide a means for detecting GFP reporters in mammalian cells at lower levels of expression and/or increased sensitivity relative to wtGFP. This greatly improves the usefulness of fluorescent proteins in studying cellular functions in living cells.

but controlling the exhibiting conductive properties to a
semiconductive range is difficult and in the technique of imparting
conductivity by using an electronic conductive agent such as carbon
black, uniform dispersion within the system is difficult and this often
causes the problems of the sample fluctuation of the electric
properties and voltage dependency of the obtained semiconductive
rubber. The semiconductive resin composition of the present
invention comprises (A) an oxyalkylene polymer having at least one
hydrosilylizable alkenyl group in each molecule, (B) a compound
having at least two hydrosilyl groups in each molecule, (C) a
hydrosilylizing catalyst, and (D) an ionic conductivity imparting agent
or (E) a nonionic surfactant. The present invention also provides a
semiconductive member having an extremely small fluctuation of
resistance due to voltage applied and environment and small change
in resistance due to continuous use, which is suitable for
electrophotographic devices. The semiconductive member of the
present invention comprises a metallic supporting member, a
semiconductive elastic layer formed around the exterior of the
metallic supporting member and at least one surface layer formed
around the exterior of the semiconductive elastic layer, wherein the
member has a specific resistance and resistance ratio.

Abstract: A process for removing zinc from galvanized steel. The
galvanized steel is immersed in an electrolyte containing at
least about 15% by weight of sodium or potassium hydroxide

intermediate of the standard electrode potentials of zinc
and cadmium in the electrochemical series. The corrosion
rate may be accelerated by heating the galvanized steel to
form an alloy of zinc on the surface of the galvanized
steel.
