Title: Process and apparatus for treating cellulosic fiber-containing fabric to improve durable press and shrinkage resistance
Inventor: MCCLAIN DAVID R
IPC: D06F73/00
Filed: 1992-08-14
Abstract: A process and apparatus for treating cellulosic fiber containing fabrics to improve durable press and shrinkage resistance includes using steam (36) as a vehicle to supply vaporized liquid cellulosic cross-linking agent and vaporized liquid catalyst to a reaction chamber (10) in which the fabric articles (30) are treated by cross-linking the cellulose. Normally liquid cross-linking agent (46) and liquid catalysts (52) are directly injected into a stream of treating steam to cause vaporization of the cross-linking agent and catalyst. Alternatively, a steam driven ejector type pump (42) is utilized to entrain and vaporize liquid cross-linking agent and liquid catalyst in a flowing stream of steam (32) supplied to the reaction chamber. Gaseous ammonia (52) may also be supplied to the reaction chamber to condition the cellulosic material containing fabric before cross-linking.

Title: Detection of human p58 protein kinase and its dna for diagnosis of certain cancers
Inventor: KIDD VINCENT J
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1992-10-13
Abstract: A method of diagnosing cancers associated with the absence of the gene encoding human p58 protein, such as neuroblastomas, ductal carcinomas of the breast, malignant melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma or endocrine neoplasia is set forth. In one embodiment, cells, especially in metaphase, are prepared from a tissue to be examined. There is then performed an in situ hybridization with a labelled probe including a DNA sequence which is either complementary to the p58 protein kinase gene or to a portion of the p58 kinase gene which is long enough to identify such gene, if present.  Determination of the presence of the absence of the gene on the number 1 chromosome indicates that a cell is cancerous or, at the very least, potentially cancerous. In a second embodiment, antibodies specific to p58 protein kinase are employed for its detection. Kits including a probe or antibody as discussed above are also set forth.

Title: Solid parts made of high-temperature superconductor material
Inventor: BOCK JOACHIM
IPC: H01B13/00
Filed: 1994-09-13
Abstract: Solid parts made of high-temperature superconductor material Abstract Solid  parts  made  of  high-temperature  superconductor material are composed of the oxides of bismuth, stron-tium, calcium and copper and of the sulfates of strontium and/or barium. These solid parts have an enhanced cur-rent-carrying capacity which is caused by a preferential orientation of the crystallites,  the crystallographic c axis being perpendicular to the temperature gradient during their solidification from the melt.     In order to produce said solid parts, a homogeneous melt of the oxides of bismuth, strontium, calcium and copper and of the sulfates of strontium and/or barium is cast, at temperatures of from 900  to 1300°C,  in permanent mods, the melt is allowed to solidify therein slowly, and the solid parts taken from the permanent molds are then annealed in an oxygen-containing atmosphere at from 700 to 900°C. In the process, the homogeneous melt is cast in permanent molds having at least two parallel walls, as a result of which there is produced in the solid parts, both after their solidification and after they have been annealed, a crystallographic preferential orientation of the crystallites.

Title: Lamp box
Inventor: COFFEY KENNETH H
IPC: G08B5/36
Filed: 1994-11-03
Abstract: A kit for a lamp box,  in which the kit includes plural square cells, with slots extending into the cell and located on sides of the cell between the corners of the cell. When identical cells are placed together, meeting at a corner, a metal tube may be slid into the eight slots (when four cells meet at a corner) or four slots (when two cells meet either along a side or at  a corner)  to bind the  cells together. The cell members are formed in a rectangular array, with each cell adjoined to each adjoining cell by the metal tubes, and four frame members are places around the periphery of the array. The frame members have slot pairs spaced along the frame member at a spacing corresponding to the cell length, so that the tubes may pass through the slot pairs on the frame member and bind the frame member to the array. The slots are slanted inwardly into the cell away from the nearest corner, so that the tubes bind against the slot walls as they are forced into the slots. Circuit boards may be mounted in the cells by providing them with tabs that extend into the slots and are secured in the slots by the tubes. A method of making a lamp box uses the kit of the invention.
