Abstract: Système d'imagerie numérique aux rayons X à modes multiples permettant le prétraitement en 'combinaison' de signaux de pixels analogiques fournis par un groupement de détecteurs, par sommation sélective dans celui-ci des charges de pixels adjacents ligne par ligne, et par sommation sélective, dans les circuits de sortie de lecture dudit groupement, desdites charges mises en sommation (par lignes) sur une base colonne par colonne. Un groupement, ou une mise en correspondance, des drapeaux de 'pixels défectueux' est utilisé pour l'identification des pixels défectueux dans le groupement de détecteurs, ces drapeaux étant ajoutés et insérés aux flux de données entrant, pour un traitement dynamique avec les données de pixels entrantes. Un tampon et un filtre capturent les images fixes en mode radiographique, et opèrent un filtrage récursif des trames de données entrantes en mode fluoroscopique, par sommation d'une quantité comptée de données de pixels à partir de trames de données antérieures, d'une part, et d'une quantité comptée de données de pixels entrantes à partir de la trame de données en cours.

Abstract: The snow show consists of a frame (1) with a transverse supporting member (3) for the boot, designed to pivot for ease of walking. The supporting member is suspended elastically inside the frame by means of couplings (5) which allow its ends to move up or down according to the load placed on it. The suspension couplings (5) are attached to the frame sides, and the frame itself is elastically flexible in a transverse direction, at least on the level of the couplings. The supporting member is attached to the couplings by means of a transverse axle (44) and has spikes on its underside. In variants of the design the supporting member can be mounted on a transverse strap or connected to the frame by springs.

Abstract: Crude phthalic anhydride (PSA) is catalytically produced from oxygen-containing gas and orthoxylol or naphthalene at temperatures in a range from 300 to 500  DEG C. The mixture containing gas and PSA vapour withdrawn from the reactor is first led through a cooled, continuously operating liquid separator. A first liquid, PSA-rich stream is withdrawn from the liquid separator, as well as a separate residual mixture of gas and vapour. The residual, PSA-containing mixture is led through at least one among a plurality of cooled solid separators to separate solid PSA, which is then periodically liquefied again. A second PSA-rich stream is thus withdrawn from the solid separators. The amount per unit in time ratio between the first and second streams ranges from 1:5 to 2:1. The first stream is led at temperatures from 250 to 300  DEG C through a first dwelling vessel, in which it is subjected under stirring to a preliminary thermal treatment for at least 3 hours. The second, PSA-rich stream is purified by distillation together with the first, thermally pre-treated stream, bypassing the first dwelling vessel.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des gènes codant des variants de métallo-endopeptidases qui ont été modifiées génétiquement pour résister à une ébullition prolongée et conservent cependant leurs propriétés enzymatiques à des températures beaucoup plus basses. En outre, la stabilité thermique des métallo-endopeptidases dépend notamment des teneurs en calcium, lesquelles sont de l'ordre du mM. L'invention concerne en outre des variants de métallo-endopeptidases actives, dont la stabilité peut être modifiée en fonction de la teneur en calcium, afin de constituer des métallo-endopeptidases qui sont dépendantes ou non du calcium. L'invention concerne encore des gènes codant des métallo-endopeptidases résistantes à l'ébullition et dont la stabilité, qui dépend de la teneur en calcium, peut être changée, ainsi que des vecteurs et des cellules comprenant ces gènes, et des protéases produites au moyen de ces gènes, vecteurs et/ou cellules. On décrit notamment des variants de protéases de type thermolysine, possédant les propriétés ci-dessus décrites, tels ceux produits par Bacillus stearothermophilus (TLP-ste) et Bacillus thermoproteolyticus (thermolysine). On peut utiliser des métallo-endopeptidases résistantes à l'ébullition et dépendantes ou non du calcium, dans divers procédés industriels, par exemple dans la préparation de l'édulcorant artificiel aspartame, mais également dans l'industrie du cuir, dans des brasseries et dans la production d'hydrolysats de protéines.

Abstract: A coating layer agent is provided which can substantially avoid water from transferring from a food substrate to a "coatings", such as a sheet and a coating, even when the food has been freeze-preserved, and which can prevent a decrease in crispness of the "coatings" after the food has been cooked by a microwave oven. A coating layer agent composition for frozen foods to be microwave-heated, each of the foods comprising a food substrate and a "coatings", is featured in containing an emulsifier, preferably acetylated monoglycerides and/or protein, and/or oil and fat. The composition can be used in the form of powder mixed with and adhered to silicon dioxide. In this case, the composition can contain a coating layer agent preferably in the range of 100 - 250 weight % for silicon dioxide, and also can contain thermo-coagulating protein. A frozen food to be microwave-heated, which comprises a food substrate and a "coatings", is featured in that a layer composed of a coating layer agent, preferably a layer of the coating layer agent of the present invention, capable of maintaining a low vapor permeability after cooking by microwave heating and during freeze-preservation of the food, is interposed between the food substrate and the "coatings". The frozen food to be microwave-heated of the present invention may be deep-fried food with a coating or a sheet. In this case, the "coatings" is designed to be adapted for microwave heating. When the frozen food is provided in the packaged form, a moisture absorbent is preferably placed in a food package.
