Abstract: According to the method, heat delivered to the cabin (H) comes from a hot source (18) of a heat pump (12) comprising a main refrigerant circuit (14) taking heat from a cold source (16) to transfer it to the hot source (18). Heat taken from the cold source (16) comes from a flow of air recycled from the cabin. The cold source (16) has a refrigerant/coolant heat exchanger (24) thermally coupling the main circuit (14) to a first secondary coolant circuit (26) capable of being selectively connected to an outside heat exchanger (30) and to a cold heat exchanger (32). Air flow circuits have an inlet for admitting air recycled from the cabin, an outlet for delivering air to the outside of the vehicle, first connection means for connecting the recycled air inlet to the upstream end of the cold heat exchanger (32), and second connection means for connecting the downstream end of said cold heat exchanger (32) to the outside outlet.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a production technology by which an optically active 2-Ä6-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-dioxan-4-ylÜacetic acid derivative, which are of value as pharmaceutical intermediates, can be produced from inexpensive and readily available starting materials without using any extraordinary equipment such as an ultra-low-temperature reactor. The present invention is a production process of an optically active 2-Ä6-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-dioxan-4-ylÜacetic acid derivative which comprises reacting an enolate, prepared by permitting a base or a 0-valent metal to act on an acetic acid ester derivative with (S)- beta -hydroxy- gamma -butyrolactone at a temperature not lower than -30 DEG C to give a dihydroxyoxohexanoic acid derivative, treating the same with an acylating agent in the presence of a base to produce a dihydroxyoxohexanoic acid monoacyl derivative, reducing this compound with a microorganism to produce a trihydroxyhexanoic acid monoacyl derivative, treating this compound with an acetal-forming reagent in the presence of an acid catalyst to produce an acyloxymethyldioxanylacetic acid derivative, and finally, subjecting this compound to solvolysis in the presence of a base.

Abstract: When used concurrently with an antitumor agent, a compound having a Rho kinase inhibitory activity, such as (R)-(+)-N-(4-pyridyl)-4-(1-aminoethyl)benzamide, reinforces an antitumor effect of the antitumor agent and is useful as an antitumor effect potentiator. Particularly, a compound having a Rho kinase inhibitory activity used with an antitumor agent in combination can reduce the dose of the antitumor agent, which in turn affords provision of a sufficient effect and/or reduction of side effects.

Abstract: An apparatus for varying localized absorption and scattering coefficients at a tissue measurement site in a controlled and reproducible manner during optical sampling of a tissue volume by controlling the pressure applied to a tissue measurement site by a spectroscopic analyzer allows applied pressure to be maintained at a constant level, or the applied pressure may be varied in a controlled, reproducible manner as a function of time. A rest for receiving a body part holds the body part in a fixed position and at a fixed elevation. A mechanical system advances a fiber optic probe until it makes contact with the body part with a constant amount of pressure. The applied force is supplied by a counterweight on a single arm balance. A temperature control allows the temperature of the fiber optic probe to be equilibrated with the temperature in the immediate vicinity of the tissue measurement site. Alternate embodiments allow the fiber optic probe to be brought into direct contact with the tissue measurement site, and displaced a known distance into the tissue. The invention is also embodied as a method in which the absorption and scattering coefficients for successive spectral measurements are calculated to determine optimum depth of penetration for detection of a target analyte.

Abstract: A data recovery system for a serial digital data link includes a data sampler, compare logic, a phase controller, and a phase shifter. The data sampler samples input data three times in a bit time which time is determined by clock pulses generated by the phase shifter, and recovers digital data according to a predetermined decision criterion. The compare logic compares the output of the data sampler according to a predetermined method. Phase controller uses the output of the compare logic and generates phase control signals. The phase shifter uses the phase control signals and makes three different phase clocks from input clock. The input clock can be an external clock, or can be recovered from the external clock or input data stream.
