Patent EP-1895863-B1 (EP)
Inventor: KARLES GEORGIOS D
IPC: A24D3/02

Granted: 2009-12-23
Abstract: Improved delivery of additive materials to cigarettes is provided through the use of one or more capsules containing additive materials, such as flavor components, in the filter section of a cigarette. The capsule or capsules are between first and second absorbent members and the capsules are subjected to an external force, such as squeezing, by a smoker prior to or during smoking of the cigarette in order to release at least a portion of the additive material and expose the additive material to mainstream smoke passing through the filter. The capsules provide a barrier between the additive materials and other cigarettes components, such as sorbents or filter materials, in order to reduce additive material migration into the other cigarette components prior to desired use. An outer cover which is impermeable to the fluid within the capsules is provided about the capsule or capsules and the first and second absorbent members.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for treating snoring sounds, interruptions in breathing and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and for diagnosing and treating obstructions and vibrations in the pharyngeal region, with the device (1) being used intra-orally. The device (1) is comprised of at least one oral transverse (2a, 2b) and of means (3) which are placed at the rear end of the oral transverse (2a, 2b) for stabilizing the velum; the means (3) can be individually adapted to the patient's anatomy; during intra-oral use of the device (1), the velum is held at a distance from the pharyngeal wall and the connective tissue in the upper pharynx behind the velum is stabilized in order to prevent obstructions. Different means can advantageously complement the device and serve as holding device for sensors for examining and treatment purposes. The invention also relates to a method for adapting a device (1) according to one of the cited claims to the velum of a patient and to a method for recording measured values.

Abstract: The present Invention provides novel methods for immortalizing cells that secrete antibodies of one or more specific isotypes. Polyclonal, oligoclonal, and monoclonal populations of cells obtained using the methods of the Invention can be screened on the basis of the functional and/or binding activities of the antibodies they secrete, for example directed to antigens of human or viral origin having medical interest, in cell culture conditions. Using these methods, human B cells that secrete antibodies binding human Cytomegalovirus, Herpes Simplex Virus, or HSP60 protein have been efficiently immortalized with Epstein-Barr virus.

Abstract: In an information record/reproduction apparatus 1 including a record portion which records content information of programs (program information), and a reproduction portion which reproduces the recorded program information; the record portion records every program, also recording time information which indicates a time of the recording, a viewing flag which indicates whether or not the program information has been reproduced, and a regular recording title flag which indicates whether or not the program is of a regular recording title, and the reproduction portion executes a process in which the program information recorded at the earliest time is selected from among the program information items of unreproduced regular recording titles on the basis of the recording time information, the viewing flag and the regular recording title flag, so as to reproduce the selected program information. Therefore, the program information of the unviewed regular recording title (of, for example, a continuous drama) can be appropriately reproduced merely by giving the instruction of starting the reproduction.
