Abstract: The present invention relates to production of polyketides and other natural products and to libraries of compounds and individual novel compounds. One important area is the isolation and potential use of novel FKBP-ligand analogues and host cells that produce these compounds. The invention is particularly concerned with methods for the efficient transformation of strains that produce FKBP analogues and recombinant cells in which cloned genes or gene cassettes are expressed to generate novel compounds such as polyketide (especially rapamycin) FKBP-ligand analogues, and to processes for their preparation, and to means employed therein (e.g. nucleic acids, vectors, gene cassettes and genetically modified strains).

Abstract: A swimming pool cleaner discharges water jets under the cleaner body, directed toward its center from its sides, to agitate and lift debris toward one or more vacuum intake openings, to greatly enhance the cleaning ability of the cleaner. The suspended dirt and debris become semi-buoyant under the force of the jetted water which is preferably moving in the same direction as the cleaner, so that the relative speed between the cleaner and the suspended dirt and debris is reduced, thereby enabling the cleaner to move at a relatively faster rate and still clean with equivalent or even greater efficiency than a pool cleaner that is not equipped with directional cleaning water jets. In addition, displaced front and back orientations of the intake ports allow for longer time for any dirt and debris to be picked up.

Abstract: Disclosed are the methods for producing recombinant viruses using site-specific recombination in vitro. In the present invention, circular viral genomic DNAs are digested with restriction enzymes to generate a linear form viral genomic DNAs flanked by site-specific recombination sites, and then are subjected to site-specific recombination with the desired genomic materials flanked by site-specific recombination sites in vitro. According to the present invention, since the site-specific recombination mixture can be applied to host cells without further procedures of selecting the desired recombinant viral genomic DNAs, it is possible to obtain numerous recombinant viruses rapidly at the same time. Thus, the present invention can be used as a high throughput system for generating and screening hundreds or thousands of recombinant viruses.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for purification and valorisation of effluents, especially from the agri-foodstuffs or agricultural industries, using a coculture of selected yeasts, which process consists in employing under aerobic conditions two strains capable of establishing themselves in a dominant manner in a medium comprising at least the effluent in question constituting the substrate, namely a first yeast strain belonging, for example, to the species Candida kefyr, preferentially metabolising the fermentable sugar, and a second strain belonging, for example, to the species Candida valida, preferentially metabolising the by-products of residual fermentation of the first strain. This process finds its main application in the agri-foodstuffs industry, in particular in the treatment of crude whey, dairy permeates, or alternatively effluents from confectionery or vinegar manufacture or from sugar refineries.

Abstract: Optical interference structures incorporating porous films. These structures are capable of exhibiting a colour by interference effects caused by the interference of light reflected from various layers within the structure. Basically, the structures comprise a reflective substrate (10), a porous transparent dielectric film (11) on the substrate and at least one semi-transparent layer supported by the porous dielectric film. The structure is such that there are at least two reflective surfaces separated by an optically thin porous layer of the dielectric film. These structures can be formed by several methods, but the most convenient involves the porous anodization of a substrate metal (10) (e.g. aluminum) to form the dielectric film (11) and the deposition of a semi-transparent metal layer (12) within the pores or on the film surface. The structures can be made inexpensively and are capable of generating strong and, if desired, dichroic colours. The porous nature of the film can also be exploited to create colour shifts. The structures can be used for decorative purposes or to create a wide range of indicators, sensors, security devices and the like.
