Patent EP-0579764-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ROE DONALD CARROLL
IPC: A61F13/15
Filed: 1992-04-09
Abstract: Absorbent structures are disclosed which contain superabsorbent materials or a particulate material composition. The particulate material composition comprises specific, relatively narrow, particle size distributions of superabsorbent hydrogel-forming material particles formed by solution polymerization methods and mixed with inorganic powders. The particles of superabsorbent material are of such size that at least about 70 % of said particles, by weight, will pass through a U.S. Standard 50 mesh sieve with 297 micron openings and be retained on a U.S. Standard 170 mesh sieve with 88 micron openings when said particles are tested according to the Sieving Test described herein. The inorganic powder, such as amorphous silica, is intermixed with the particles of superabsorbent material in amount of between about 0.1 to about 5 parts per 100 parts of the particles of superabsorbent material. The absorbent structures of the present invention are useful in disposable absorbent articles such as diapers, adult incontinence, and the like.

Patent EP-0650522-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FRIEDMAN JEFFREY S
IPC: C07K19/00
Filed: 1992-08-05
Abstract: The cloning and characterization of a new binding protein class, cyclophilin C (cyp C) and homologous proteins, is provided which is capable of binding to, e.g., the immunosuppressive drug cyclosporin A (CsA). The pattern of cyp C mRNA expression differs from that of cyp A mRNA expression, with cyp C being expressed in a more restricted subset of tissues, including those tissues reported to be most affected by CsA therapy. A fusion protein containing, e.g., amino acids 16-212 of cyp C has peptidyl-prolyl-isomerase activity (PPIase), and CsA inhibits this activity. Most significantly, these cyp C fusion proteins can be used as ligands for the identification of intracellular proteins which together form high affinity associations. For example, the cyp C fusion protein binds specifically to a protein of 77 Kd in the absence of CsA, while in the presence of CsA it no longer binds to this p77, but instead binds specifically to a protein 55 Kd, identified as calcineurin (see U.S.S.N. 07/740,175, incorporated herein by reference).

Title: BOUCLE A VERROUILLAGE DE PHASE ET A GAIN CONSTANT PERMETTANT DE RECUPERER UN SIGNAL D'HORLOGE A PARTIR DE DONNEES ESPACEES DE FAçON IRREGULIERE
Inventor: PETERSEN COREY D
IPC: G11B20/14
Filed: 1992-08-21
Abstract: Une boucle à verrouillage de phase et à gain constant, servant à récupérer un signal d'horloge à partir d'impulsions de données espacées de façon irrégulière utilise une source de courant programmable et une pompe à charge (26, 28, 32), le courant passant par la pompe à charge étant proportionnel au nombre de périodes d'horloge d'un oscillateur commandé en tension (VCO) entre les impulsions de données. Le courant chargeant la pompe augmente concurremment avec le temps écoulé entre les impulsions et diminue de même lorsque le temps écoulé entre les impulsions diminue, afin de maintenir un gain de boucle constant indépendamment de la configuration de données.

Abstract: A surveying technique transmits a combined signal made up of a programming signal and a surveying signal, both of which are in the audible range. The surveying signal is uniquely coded to identify a signal source such as a radio station or television channel. At the receiver, the surveying signal is separated from the programming signal and then modified so as to be reproduced outside the audible range for detection by a portable unit worn by a person being monitored for his listening and/or viewing habits. The detection of the inaudible survey signal by the portable unit identifies the signal source to which the person was tuned.
