Patent ZA-826802-B (ZA)
Title: Methods and products for facile microbial expression of dna sequences
Inventor: BOER HERMAN ALBERT DE
IPC: A61K38/27
Filed: 1982-09-16
Abstract: Microbial expression of an exogenous polypeptide may be inefficient if the messenger RNA has secondary structure (due to complementarity of spaced regions of the molecule) which impedes interaction with a ribosome. The occurrence of such structure can be predicted. The degeneracy of the genetic code gives freedom to alter the nucleic acid composition of the cDNA to eliminate harmful secondary structure of the mRNA. For example, bovine growth hormone (BGH) is poorly expressed by E. coli transformed with a recombinant plasmid containing the natural BGH gene. The corresponding mRNA has complementary regions at 46-51 and 73-78. Therefore a plasmid pBGH 33-4 was constructed containing a BGH gene whose upstream portion was synthesized (making use of plasmid pHGH 207-1 which contains an efficiently expressible gene for the closely related human growth hormone) so as not to cause the troublesome complementarity. E. coli transformed therewith produced BGH with a yield of better than 10<5> copies per cell.

Title: Spiral construction of grooved,void-volume lnp belts
Inventor: STIGBERG CARL E
IPC: B29K105/04
Filed: 1992-02-12
Abstract: A grooved, void-volume belt for use on a long nip press for dewatering a fibrous web may be manufactured by winding a grooved strip or ribbon of polymeric material onto a standard LNP belt in the form of a closed helix, and by attaching the grooved strip to the belt by suitable means. The strip may be extruded from a polymeric material, such as polyurethane, and is provided with at least one longitudinal groove. The method enables one to manufacture a grooved, void-volume belt without the prior necessity of coating both sides of a base fabric with a polymeric material, and of cutting grooves in the coating on the outer side of the belt. <IMAGE>

Title: Force sensing assembly and method for a product delivery system
Inventor: MONCRIEF FRANK
IPC: B65H3/08
Filed: 1996-03-15
Abstract: A force sensing assembly measures a magnitude of a force generated at the tabs in a product delivery system. The product delivery system can be one in which a force is produced at the tabs by the weight of the stack, by a paddle pushing an end of the stack, or by another similar type of advancing mechanism. In a preferred embodiment, the force sensing assembly has a pair of tabs connected to a cross-bar which extends across the stack and which is connected to the frame of the feeder through a bell crank at one end and a lever at the other end. The bell crank has one arm connected to the cross-bar and a second arm connected to a load cell. The force at the tabs causes the lever and bell crank to rotate, with the force being transmitted through the bell crank, through a spring, and then to the load cell. The load cell generates a force signal which is supplied to a controller for adjusting the amount of force at the tabs. The controller adjusts the force by adding more products to the stack or by advancing the stack closer to the tabs. The load cell preferably has a stopper for preventing an excessive amount of force from reaching the cell.

Granted: 2008-03-26
Abstract: A hub-and-spoke communication arrangement is provided, in which the "hub" includes a server computer system. The "spokes" are other computers that act as message originators and/or destinations.
