Abstract: Process for producing a source of baker's yeast exhibiting a Lti (Low Temp. Inactive) phenotype, i.e. the property of being practically inactive but surviving in a dough at a temp. ≤ 14 degrees C at which the dough does not freeze, and of being practically inactive at ≤ 18 degrees C in a maltose-contg. medium, in which firstly a strain of haploidal Saccharomyces cerevisiae that is inactive at a temp. of 3-10 degrees C, pref. > 10 degrees C, is crossed with a strain of haploidal Saccharomyces cerevisiae having ≥ 1 MAL allele that is active but with catabolic repression. In a second stage, the segregants are crossed and finally a diploidal prototrophic strain is selected exhibiting a Lti phenotype, an active MAL phenotype that is active but with catabolic suppression, and a potential to be grown in a fed-batch process. Also claimed are Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCIMB 40612 and NCIMB 40611.

Abstract: This relates to an optical relay (80) for an infrared spectrometer for measuring reflectance spectra of sample plastics materials (8,174) diffusely or specularly. The relay has a housing containing a first set of reflecting surfaces (12,14,20,22) for directing a beam of infrared radiation from the source (5) to a point outside the relay at which a sample surface (8) can be located and for redirecting the beam from the sample surface as a specular reflection to the detector (6), and a second set of reflecting surfaces (12,178,176,177,22) for directing a beam of infrared radiation from the source (5), to a sample location (174), from the sample as diffuse reflection and to the detector (6). The first and second sets of reflecting surfaces are alternately positionable between the source (5) and the detector (6) of a spectrometer so that the spectrometer can be used either for diffuse or specular reflectance measurements. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The formation of contaminants in drainage from waste rock or tailings is reduced or prevented by contacting the waste rock or tailings with an organic or inorganic sulfur compound in combination with a neutralizing agent, a fixating agent or a neutralizing agent and a fixating agent. When an organic or inorganic sulfur compound is used with the neutralizing agent or fixating agent, the amount of neutralizing agent and/or the amount of fixating agent required to reduce or prevent the formation of contaminants in drainage from waste rock or tailings is substantially reduced. The amount of sulfur compound applied to the waste rock or tailings can be about 1 % to 5 % by weight and the amount of neutralizing agent and/or fixating agent applied to the waste rock or tailings can be about 1 % to about 15 % by weight, based on the weight of the waste rock or tailings. The organic or inorganic sulfur compounds are those having a sulfhydryl group or an ionized sulfhydryl group or a sulfur compound which is capable of producing a sulfhydryl group or an ionized sulfhydryl group.

Abstract: The instant invention demonstrates that the 7S domain of type IV collagen disrupts cell aggregation and tissue development. Structural changes in mesoglea, inhibition of cell proliferation, and changes in cell differentiation patterns accompanies the blockage of cell aggregates which indicate that blockage may be due to alterations in mesoglea (extracellular matrix) structure with accompanying effects on cell behaviour. Type IV collagen has a critical role in the initial formation of mesoglea and that perturbation of mesoglea formation affects cell division, cell differentiation and morphogenesis. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A multimedia system including an audio/video decoder/decompresser for decoding/decompressing a compressed encoded audio/video data stream to generate video images for display and audio signals for audible reproduction. The multimedia system includes an integrated system and video decoder with an audio/video synchronization circuit for substancially synchronizing the display of video images with audio playback. A method is described for detecting when the playback of audio and the display of video images are out of synchronization. The circuitry includes three programmable registers, a finite state machine and one full adder using an audio presentation time stamp and the video presentation time stamp. The method uses a rounded programmable bias value which is compared with the difference between the video presentation time stamp and the audio presentation time stamps. The difference may included the latency delay of the audio and video display devices to more properly reflect the synchronization status between audio and video. The circuit area used by the circuitry has been minimized by selective rounding or truncation of the audio presentation time stamp and the video presentation time stamp without sacrificing the accuracy or speed of determining the synchronization between audio and video.

Abstract: The present invention discloses surface covering products and methods and an apparatus for making surface covering products. In particular, the method of the present invention includes depositing color particles on a moving carrier to form a base layer. The base layer then comes in contact with a patterned embossing device such as a roll to create a depressed or displaced pattern image on the base layer. Afterwards, accent particles or pellets are sprinkled or applied over the embossed base layer. The embossed base layer is subjected to heat and/or pressure to consolidate the accent and color particles and form a preformed mass. The preformed mass is then pressed to form a fused, texture-created structure. The surface covering products made from the process of the present invention have unique geometric patterns with well-defined grout lines or irregular decorative designs. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The positioning drive includes a gearing motor (2) with an output shaft (9), a positioning element (15) connected with the output shaft and linearly adjustable, and a console part (4, 5), at which the gearing motor and the positioning element (15) are stored. The gearing motor and/or its casing (8) is rotatably mounted at the console part, coaxial to the output shaft, so that an opposite torque appearing at the motor casing through a torque produced at the output shaft moves the motor casing because of its revolving mounting, at least negligibly, against the rotation direction of the output shaft. The positioning element is limited and/or blocked through a clamping arrangement (21) which comprises an adjustable, likewise at the console part mounted, wave shaft arrangement (28) which engages with a clamping part, and adjusts thereby the tension of the clamping part. The wave shaft arrangement is connected through a transmission device (27) with the motor casing, whereby the movement of the motor casing caused by the opposite torque is transferred as a lifting movement to the wave shaft arrangement, and adjusts thereby the tension of the clamping arrangement.
