Abstract: S-Carboxymethylcysteine <FORM:1071807/C2/1> is prepared by alkylating cysteine with an alkali metal monochloroacetate, in the presence of a proton acceptor, preferably NaOH; the reaction is carried out in aqueous solution at about 5 DEG  C., under inert gas (nitrogen) and when complete the product is precipitated by acidifying the reaction mixture and recrystallized from alkaline solution by addition of acid.  The product is afterwards converted to its sodium salt in aqueous solution, for use in a pharmaceutical composition (see Divisions A5-A6).ALSO:Pharmaceutical compositions for topical application comprise a water-in-oil emulsion of a solution of a non-toxic, water-soluble salt of S-carboxymethyl cysteine in an aqueous phase uniformly dispersed throughout a non-toxic topically applicable unguent lipid carrier as the non-aqueous phase.  The composition preferably includes one or more surface active agents, such as polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate, alkali metal lauryl sulphonates, and triethanolamine stearate.  The preferred soluble salts are those of alkali metals or ammonium organic bases such as mono-or tri-ethanolamine, or basic aminoacids such as lysine or arginine.  The lipid medium may contain one or more of glyceryl mono-stearate or-palmitate, lanolin or hydrogenated lanolin, perhydrosqualene, polyethylene glycols, propylene glycol stearate, hydrogenated oils and mixed esters of glycerol and polyoxyethylene glycol obtained by subjecting oils such as almond p  oil to alcoholysis in the presence of polyoxyethylene glycols, cholesterol or its palmitate, sorbital, preservatives, (benzalkonium chloride or sorbic acid), and suitable coloring agents.  Other active ingredients may be present, such as thyroxin and vitamin A.  The compositions are useful for treating fragility of human nails.

Abstract: 1,166,152. Burglar alarms. A. E. GOLDFARB. 23 June, 1967 [23 June, 1966], No. 29197/67. Heading G4N. [Also in Division H3] A burglar alarm comprises a portable proximity-detecting switch capable of being attached (e.g. by a hook 12) to a projection (such as a door knob) on the inside of a door so as to operate an alarm on the proximity of a person to the outside of the door. The circuit is connected to A.C. mains 30, 31 which is arranged to bias a neon tube 46 so that it is normally just non-conductive, but becomes conductive when a person approaches the door knob to which the hook 12 is attached. This action triggers an S.C.R. 65 which operates a buzzer 85. Ganged switches 33, 34 are set to position 36 when the device is used on a wooden door and to positions 37, 40 so as to reduce the sensitivity when the device is used on a metal door. Manual sensitivity adjustments 45, 63 and a temperature-compensating thermistor 73 are provided. The triggering stability is improved by allowing light from an indicating neon 26 to fall on the neon tube 46. A weighted spring wedge 22 attached to a cord 21 is inserted between the door and the jamb so as to close contacts 80, 81 and sound the buzzer 85 when the door is opened.

[Also in Group XXIX] A compressor having at least two cylinders each provided with a valve 22 normally closing an inlet 21, has an unloader mechanism comprising a plunger 36 of each valve operable to open the valves, a bridge member 40 extending between and having its ends rockably engaging the plungers, e.g. by bifurcations engaging plunger shoulders 37, and a single spring 38 engaging the bridge intermediate its ends for normally maintaining the plungers inoperative. When a predetermined maximum pressure occurs in a reservoir, it acts on a fluid governor to open a normally closed valve which allows the pressure to act at 33 on the pistons 30. One plunger 36 rises and opens its inlet valve and the other plunger opens its valve when the corresponding cylinder is not under compression, the bridge 40 oscillating to permit the consecutive movement of the plungers. Compression ceases and the compressor is unloaded by virtue of the cylinders being open to atmosphere.
