Abstract: Adjuvant compositions for modulating an immune response to an antigen administered to a host comprise a mineral salt adjuvant and at least one other adjuvant. The compositions provide an adjuvanting effect on an antigen which is greater than the adjuvanting effect attainable by one of the adjuvants alone. An antigen is covalently bonded to a glycolipid analog to provide a discrete molecule which exhibits an enhanced adjuvanting effect on the antigen which is greater than the adjuvanting effect attainable in the absence of such covalent bonding.

Abstract: The feed system for a carding machine has a number of feed channels distributed over the whole length (L) of the hopper (7). Each delivers fibre material over a defined section (1) of the hopper length (L). Pref. the feed system has a distributor with an inlet to take fibre material with a carrier air stream. The outlets are a number of channels for the distributed material. The distributor divides the incoming fibre material and can block all the distribution outlet openings except one, in succession along them all. The delivery to the distributor channels is through a fan which draws the material into the distributor and blow it out at the channels. The material is divided in the distributor by a rotating collar round the fan rotor. The collar is rotated continuously, or its movement is incremental with a stopper time to give a divided feed to at the distribution channels, or it can vary between the channels according to the material level in the hopper, to top up low sections.

Abstract: A spread spectrum digital screening mask and a method and system for digital screening a continuous tone image with the spread spectrum digital screening mask. The mask is characterized in the frequency domain by a function in magnitude independent of angle within a band of frequencies between a minimum frequency and a maximum frequency. The mask may be further characterized by its thresholded binary planes at each of a plurality of predetermined threshold values. The binary planes are characterized in frequency domain by magnitudes primarily distributed within the band of frequencies. For each binary plane, the number of pixels having one of the binary values divided by the total number of pixels in the binary plane equals a fraction determined by the predetermined threshold value of the binary plane divided by the maximum threshold value.

Date Aug. 8, 1996Earmuff and method for changing the noise attenuation characteristic of an earmuff. The change is obtained by providing foam-filled sealing ring of the earmuff in the annular covering thereof with a large number of ventilation apertures which are uniformly distributed along the sealing ring, thereby affecting the air spring action of the sealing ring. The ventilation apertures communicate with the environment without communicating with interior of the earmuff. By reducing the air spring action to a considerable extent, the low frequency attenuation is improved. The communication with the environment provides "acoustic ducts", particular by using special ventilation ducts which can be dimensioned to give a selective noise transmission, dependent on the duct resonance, into the sealing ring, thereby selectively affecting the noise attenuation characteristic.

Abstract: The presence of a serviceable electrochemical gas sensor (1) in gas detecting apparatus is determined on the basis of the noise in the output of a sensor amplifier. A microcomputer (22) calculates mean, rms or variance values for the noise in the output of the amplifier (20) for successive periods. Each of these values is compared with the threshold and if it falls below the threshold, counter is incremented. When the counter reaches a target value, it is determined fault condition as arisen and an alarm (23) is operated. <IMAGE>

Abstract: High pressure liquid chromatographic apparatus in which a fluid mixture containing at least one solute that is reactive with chromatographically reactive surfaces in the column is loaded into the column, and a number of plugs of different eluant fluids are injected into that column. The injections are made in a manner that minimizes the amount of eluant required. In one embodiment, the injections are made to insure that flow of at least the eluant fluids through the column will occur, preferably with a substantially flat wave front, at speeds corresponding to reduced velocities greater than about 5,000, i.e. at flow rates sufficient to induce turbulent flow in those fluids, thereby minimizing the time required for the entire succession of mixture and eluant fluids to traverse the column. In other embodiments, the injections are made substantially simultaneously at spatially separated points adjacent the entrance to the column or are made in sequence to a single location adjacent the entrance to the column, in either case the fluids then tend to travel through the column at a common group velocity as closely bunched fluid plugs.

Abstract: A method and apparatus provide the ability to generate and use a database representing all solutions (legal combinations) satisfying all constraints of configuration problems on finite domains and/or intervals. The configuration space with all legal combinations is stored in a compact way in terms of nested arrays, where each legal Cartesian subspace has a unique index. Thus, the complete configuration space (which can be extended with object functions for optimization) is easily addressable by parallel indexing techniques and the database is therefore suitable for run-time applications (e.g. configuration on the Internet), which must be performed in real time.</PTEXT>

Abstract: Transgenic microbial strains are provided which contain the genes required for PHA formation integrated on the chromosome. The strains are advantageous in PHA production processes, because (1) no plasmids need to be maintained, generally obviating the required use of antibiotics or other stabilizing pressures, and (2) no plasmid loss occurs, thereby stabilizing the number of gene copies per cell throughout the fermentation process, resulting in homogeneous PHA product formation throughout the production process. Genes are integrated using standard techniques, preferably transposon mutagenesis. In a preferred embodiment wherein multiple genes are incorporated, these are incorporated as an operon. Sequences are used to stabilize mRNA, to induce expression as a function of culture conditions (such as phosphate concentration), temperature, and stress, and to aid in selection, through the incorporation of selection markers such as markers conferring antibiotic resistance.

Title: Transmitter directed code division multiple access system using multi-users diversity to maximize throughput while equitably providing access to users
Inventor: BHUSHAN NAGA
IPC: H04W72/12
Filed: 2004-02-02
Abstract: A transmitter directed, distributed receiver using multi-user diversity provided by the distribution of the receiver. Advantage is taken of the uncorrelated variations over time in the condition of communication links between a common transmitter and several users. The greater the variation in the quality of a particular link over time, the greater the increase in total system throughput provided. An scheduler metric (or scheduler metric) represents the instantaneous quality of the communication link between each user and the transmitter with respect to the average quality of the link. Alternatively, the scheduler metric represents the instantaneous channel condition with respect to the average data throughput over that channel. The common transmitting station uses the scheduler metric to directly compare the desirability of granting each channel access with the desirability of granting each other channel access. The users with links that have the greatest scheduler metric are provided access to the channels.
