Patent EP-0651797-A1 (EP)
Inventor: DE BOER MARK
IPC: C12N15/06
Filed: 1993-07-08
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of generating antibodies directed against cell surface antigens and it uses recombinant insect cells as immunogens. The insect cells have been transfected with coding regions for a molecule containing a cell surface antigen and these antigens are expressed on the surface of the insect cells. Host animals are immunized with these transfected insect cells to generate antibodies directed against the cell surface antigen. Antibody-producing cells from the host animal are used to generate monoclonal antibody-producing hybridoma cells. Sera and hybridoma supernatants can be tested for the presence of antibodies against the surface antigen, using the transfected cells in a screening assay. Specific antibodies that have been generated by the present method are anti-B7 and anti-CD40 antibodies and they can be used to prevent or treat an antibody-mediated or immune system disease in a patient. The anti-B7 antibodies can be used to cause T cell anergy, treat allograft transplant rejection, treat graft versus host disease, and prevent or treat rheumatoid arthritis. An immunosuppressive agent may be co-administered with the antibody. The anti-CD40 antibodies which bind to the CD40 antigen can be used to prevent the growth or differentiation of the B cell. Monoclonal antibodies useful in these methods, and epitopes immunoreactive with such monoclonal antibodies are also presented.

Abstract: Procédé et appareil permettant d'appliquer de l'énergie optique ou thermique à des tissus à l'aide d'un clamp (12). L'énergie est appliqueée à une fréquence qui provoque une soudure ou une fusion biologique des tissus. Une matière (30) transmettant l'énergie à la fréquence de traitement est incorporée dans une ou plusieurs mâchoires (18) (20) du clamp (12) et serre les tissus pendant le processus de fusion. L'épaisseur de la matière (30) est sélectionnée de manière à assurer que la source d'énergie est située à une distance correcte des tissus, de sorte que ces derniers reçoivent une quantité appropriée d'énergie qui les soude. La matière (30) transmettant l'énergie retient les tissus dans la mâchoire afin de maintenir l'un contre l'autre les bords de ces derniers. On peut coupler l'énergie au clamp à l'aide d'une ou plusieurs fibres optiques (54). Ces fibres sont placées à proximité de la mâchoire ou en retrait par rapport à celle-ci, à une certaine distance de la surface de la matière (30) et dirigent à travers cette dernière l'énergie de traitement pour souder entre eux les bords des tissus.

Abstract: In a method for reducing the bit error rate in the transmission of digital data by radio by means of an m-channel radio system, the bit error rate is reduced according to the invention in that first the transmitted data signals are extracted from the received signals with carrier in the individual m receiving channels, then the data clock rate is determined and the data signals and the data clock rate are used for calculating a cross correlation for each data bit. Following this, the resultant cross correlation values of the individual receiving channels are compared with one another for each data bit. For the further processing of the data bit, the one of the m receiving channels which has the highest cross correlation value for this data bit is selected. In order to be able to carry out the method, the received signals are in each case supplied to a diversity switch via a bit synchroniser (which determines the data clock rate) and to a cross correlator (belonging to the channel) in the individual receiving channels. In a comparison and control unit, the resultant correlation values of the individual channels are compared with one another. The receiving channel having the best correlation value is then switched to the evaluating circuit via the diversity switch. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention discloses the inclusion of an enzymatic maceration step in the cider production process. The enzyme applied in the maceration step is a pectin methylesterase substantially free from depolymerase activities. As a result, the process time is considerably reduced and the use of a separate defecation step can be circumvented. This makes the cider production process much more economic as compared to the current process.

Abstract: A control panel includes controllers in the form of push buttons (20) supported by an elastomeric switch pad (34) over an electroluminescent lamp panel (52). The electroluminescent panel (52) includes circuits (58, 60, 62) formed by chargeable areas (56) which register with optical indicia (28, 30) carried by the buttons (20) and transmitted through openings in the elastomeric layer (34). The elastomeric layer (34) includes pads which resiliently urge the buttons (20) to a rest position at which contacts (46) carried by the elastomeric pad (34) are spaced apart from terminal conductors (92) on a printed wiring board (94). A peripheral (38) wall of the pad formed with the elastomeric layer (34) is supported by a tactile membrane (40) which permits depression of the button (20) to engage the contact (46) against the terminal conductors (92) of the printed wiring board (94), and returning the button (20) to the rest position. The control panel (10) controls that operate in response to audio system operating modes, for example, the controls related to a cassette player, can be identified by different colour or intensity of light depending on the drive circuits applied to the chargeable areas (56) formed on the electroluminescent lamp panel (52).

Abstract: A brake control apparatus for controlling the application of braking force to a permanent magnet brake (25) of the type wherein a permanent magnet (57) creates a magnetic flux path for applying a braking force and an electromagnet (55) provides a continuously variable flux in opposition to the permanent magnet (57). Braking force is controlled in response to a braking command signal from an operator controlled floor pedal or hand grip (150) which varies in relation to the amount of braking desired. A control circuit (50) responsive to the braking command signal causes braking force to be generated in direct proportion to the amount of braking desired. The control circuit (50) applies pulses of current to the electromagnet (55), the pulse width of which varies from a minimum pulse width representing maximum braking to a maximum pulse width representing no braking. The pulses are monitored to insure proper operation. The current in the pulses is used as an indication of brake temperature and is used to control the pulse width of any given desired brake torque. A tachometer (160) monitors the direction and speed of rota-tion of the braked wheel and an anti-skid algorithm modifies the pulses applied to prevent wheel lockup. The brake is fail safe since removal of current to the electromagnet (55) either by operation of the control circuit (50) or by an emergency removal of power will cause the permanent magnet to apply full braking torque.
