Granted: 1994-03-10
Abstract: Cloned recombinant or synthetic DNA sequences related to the pathology of Alzheimer's disease are injected into fertilized mouse eggs. The injected eggs are implanted in pseudo pregnant females and are grown to term to provide transgenic mice whose cells express proteins related to the pathology of Alzheimer's disease. The injected sequences are constructed having promoter sequences connected so as to express the desired protein in brain tissues of the transgenic mouse. The proteins which are preferably ubiquitously expressed include (1)  beta -amyloid core precursor proteins; and (2)  beta -amyloid related precursor proteins; and (3) serine protease inhibitor. The transgenic mice provide useful models for studying compounds being tested for their usefulness in treating Alzheimer's disease, and for studying the in vivo interrelationships of these proteins to each other.

Title: Cardboard container and blank therefor
Inventor: VOSSEN FRANZ
IPC: B65D5/02
Filed: 1982-11-04
Granted: 1986-06-26
Abstract: A container is made of cardboard or the like material-and a pattern or blank from which said container is assembled-and has walls which are joined intimately to a base, a lid flap or flaps on one or one pair of these walls surrounding an opening to the container interior, and lying transverse to that lid flap, dust flaps which when the container is closed face the inner side of the lid flap/flaps. Said container is intended for contents of a finely divided form which could give rise to dust, and is able to prevent this dust formation. To this end the edges at the sides of the dust flap extend on both sides beyond the delimiting wall section a distance from the related fold line to produce peaklike areas; each of which is delimited by a curved contour and are joined to another wall which is adjoined to and is at an angle to that wall section, the edge at the side of the dust flap featuring a radial curvature at least in the region next to the fold line. Further, the leading edges of a pair of dust flaps which feature slits at the leading edge should support the inner surface of the lid flap/flaps; the leight of the dust flaps should be less than half that of the dust flap/flaps.

Title: Three way valve with auxiliary control - has changeover disc with pressure and vent ports transmitting impulses
IPC: F16K31/385
Filed: 1969-04-05
Abstract: The three-way valve with auxiliary control has a control plunger with a plug working against two seats each closing a valve chamber and in a control chamber connected to the pressure inlet on one side and to the pressure or discharge chamber on the other. A pressure passage is connected to the inlet, and two control passages lead to a sealing face on the outside of the valve housing. A changeover disc containing a pressure and a vent port is held by a screw against this face. Each control passage leads to one of the valve chambers and by moving the disc into its end positions the pressure passage in the valve housing is connected to one of the control passages via the pressure port in the disc, while the other control passage is connected to the vent port. Whichever control passage is pressurised transmits the pressure impulses via the appropriate valve seat to the outlet.

Abstract: The crystallizer comprises a housing (15), conduit means (33) for the ingress of solution to be crystallized, and outlet ports (35) and (37) for the removal of product crystals and mother liquor respectively. Perforated plates (21) disposed essentially horizontally and substantially conforming to the interior shape of the housing (15) are attached to and vertically spaced along a support member (20). Mobile bodies (25) are disposed on the upper surfaces of the plates (21). Heat transfer tubes (11) provided with conduit means (26) and (28) for the ingress and egress of cooling fluid are located in the housing (15) substantially parallel to the support member (20), and penetrate through apertures in the plates (21).
