Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a method, a network and a portable communication device transferring a session ongoing between a first and a second device having a high level of information content from a first link over a first network to a second link. A low performance circumstance for the session over the first link to the first wireless network is detected, (step 70), communication for the session is handed over to a second link using a lower level of information content in the session, (step 76), such that communication can be continued over the second link with a lower level of information content than over the first link despite the low performance circumstance. Because of the invention a video telephone session in a third-generation cellular network can be continued with only voice in a second-generation cellular network. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An air-evacuable bag has a one-way valve therein having two layers of valve film (38,42), neither of which is the sidewall layer (40,44) of the bag. A method for the manufacture of such air-evacuable bags incorporates a roll (20) supplying a first valve film layer (38), a roll (30) supplying a first sidewall layer (40), a roll (22) supplying a second valve film layer (42), and a roll (32) supplying a second sidewall layer (44). As the film (38) coming off the first valve film layer roll (20) passes the roll (30) supplying the first sidewall layer (40), both the first sidewall layer (40) and first valve film layer (38) move in close proximity to one another until the first valve film layer (38) is tacked to the first sidewall layer (40). The second valve film layer (42) and second sidewall layer (44) are processed simultaneously in a like manner, and all four layers (38,40,42,44) are joined at a sealing station. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The safety diaphragm consists of two layers (1,2). It has a clamping section (E) for fastening in a pump, and a working section next to it. The diaphragm layers are connected to prevent entry of liquid and/or gas between the layers. A sensor section (S) is located in part of the clamping section. There is atmospheric or sub-atmospheric pressure between the diaphragm layers. The layers are formed so that with an increase in pressure between the layers, and an increase in the relative distance, they deform easier in the sensor section area than in the remaining sections. The layers are connected pref. positively and sealed to a diaphragm core (5).

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of food fermentation procedures involving lactic acid bacteria and in particular to improving the quality of dairy products like acidity, post-fermentation acidification, aroma, flavor, mildness, consistency and texture. Specifically, the present invention provides a method for making dairy products using the thermophilic Streptococcus thermophilus and the mesophilic Lactococcus lactis carrying plasmids encoding small heat shock proteins which allow fermentation to be carried out at temperatures higher than the regular fermentation temperatures. The thermophilic and mesophilic lactic acid bacterial species expressing said small heat shock proteins also exhibit increased tolerance to lower pH and higher salt concentrations as well as reduced sensitivity to bacteriophage attack at the elevated fermentation temperatures.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des articles contenant des matériaux de cellulose et traités avec un additif chimique. Selon la présente invention, au moins une partie de la cellulose contenant l'article est modifiée pour inclure une première entité. On choisit alors un additif chimique, tel qu'un ramollissant ou un agent mouillant, qui comprend une seconde entité. Quand l'additif chimique est appliqué à l'article, la seconde entité forme sur l'additif chimique une liaison chimique avec la première entité sur le matériau cellulosique. De cette manière, l'additif chimique devient collé au matériau cellulosique empêchant les problèmes dus à la rétention.
