Title: Process for the post-hydrogenation of sucrose polyesters
IPC: C07H13/06
Filed: 1987-12-18
Abstract: The invention is a process for post-hydrogenating sucrose polyesters with hydrogen gas in the presence of a catalytically effective amount of hydrogenation catalyst, at a temperature of from about 250 DEG F (121 DEG C) to about 450 DEG F (232 DEG C). Post-hydrogenation can be used to make sucrose polyesters that are different from those made by esterification. Preferably, the hydrogen pressure is at least about 20 psig. Increased hydrogen pressure overcomes steric hindrance of certain kinds of sucrose polyester molecules, allowing more complete hydrogenation of the fatty acids.

Title: Site-directed mutagenesis modified glycoprotein hormones and methods of use
IPC: C12N15/00
Filed: 1988-12-21
Abstract: Described are new glycoprotein hormones capable of competing with natural hormones for the normal receptor binding sites but substantially incapable of effecting post receptor activities. The glycoprotein hormones of the present invention have had specific (rather than all) oligosaccharide chains removed so as to effectively diminish biological activity while not significantly reducing plasma half-life, thus improving the molecules effectiveness as an antagonist compared with conventionally produced molecules. The preferred glycoprotein hormones are ideally obtained by site-directed mutagenesis to selectively deglycosylate the protein. Also described are therapeutic treatments comprising the administration of the recombinant glycoprotein hormones of the present invention as hormone antagonists.

Patent EP-0398127-A3 (EP)
IPC: H03K19/018
Filed: 1990-05-08
Abstract: An ECL/CML to TTL translator circuit couples the output 
of an ECL/CML gate to the input of a TTL gate. The ECL/CML 
gate operates with reference to a first power rail higher 
reference voltage level with transistor elements operating in 
the non-saturation operating region. The TTL gate operates 
with reference to a second power rail lower reference voltage 
level with transistor elements operating in the saturation 
operating region. The translator circuit includes a 
reference voltage level shifting constant current non-­
switching current mirror circuit coupled to the output of the 
ECL/CML gate. The current mirror circuit shifts the 
reference voltage level of the ECL/CML gate output from the 
higher reference voltage level to the lower reference voltage 
level and delivers a reference voltage level shifted output 
signal. An operating region translating emitter follower 
output buffer circuit is coupled to receive the voltage level 
shifted output signal and drive the input of the TTL gate in 
the saturation region. The circuit functions of reference 
voltage level. shifting and of operating region translating 
are thereby separately performed by separate components. 
The TTL gate input is a phase splitter transistor element. A 
resistor pulldown discharges the phase splitter transistor 
element. Base drive to the phase splitter transistor element 
is limited by a base drive limiting anti-saturation clamp. 
More generally, an overdrive and anti-saturation clamp 
circuit provides high speed switching of the phase splitter 
or other TTL switching transistor element.

charge-transporting material having an ionization 
potential larger than that of the charge-generating 
material in combination with the charge-transporting 
material having an ionization potential smaller than 
that of the charge-generating material, a good residual 
potential can be maintained without disturbing injection 
of holes in the charge-transporting layer, the stability 
of the surface potential at the repeated use is improved 
and a good charging capacity can be attained.
