Abstract: In summary, a method and system for performing data transmission is described, wherein a data call is detected (51) and transmitted without using a modem function (54), in case digital connection of the transmission link can be established. A negotiation (52) is performed in order to check the possibility of digitally transferring the data (53). Thereby, the use of a modem function (55) can be restricted to those cases where digital connection cannot be established. Consequently, network processing power can be saved and transmission quality improved.

Patent EP-1039873-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BLANCHARD CHERYL R
IPC: C07K1/113
Filed: 1998-11-25
Abstract: A keratin hydrogel which can be used as a wound dressing and cell scaffolding. The keratin hydrogel is formed from clean, washed hair by partially oxidizing a significant percentage of disulfide linkages to form cysteic acid groups, while some disulfide linkages remain intact. The partially oxidized hair is treated with a reducing agent, thereby reducing most of the remaining disulfide linkages to cysteine-thioglycollate disulfide and cysteine groups. A soluble fraction of hair is collected and oxidized, such that the reduced sulfur groups are allowed to reform disulfide linkages, thereby binding the keratin together. The cysteic acid groups remain, providing hydrophilic sites within the hydrogel. A higher degree of partial oxidation results in a greater abundance of hydrophilic cysteic acid groups in the hydrogel.

Abstract: A compression system and process include adaptive quantization for selection of one quantizer, for each video frame or frame portion, from a group of quantizers, where each quantizer is a set of predefined quantizer values, and coding of the quantized values using a common entropy coding table for all quantizers, or a separate entropy coding table for each quantizer. The entropy coding tables are obtained during a training procedure. The selection of the quantizer is based on a formula which takes into account the distortion and bit rate characteristics of each quantizer. A similar formula, based on the distortion and bit rate characteristics, is used to select the particular quantizer value within the chosen quantizer for each video signal value being coded.

Title: Method to enhance tissue accumulation of radiolabeled compounds
Inventor: WOLTERING EUGENE A
IPC: A61K51/00
Filed: 1998-11-23
Abstract: Administration of a radioisotopic compound by infusion over a period of time greater than two hours, preferably greater than twelve hours, greatly increases the maximum radioactivity that accumulates in the target cell. The efficacy of the administration of the radiolabeled compound can be increased about five times higher than prior bolus injection or short infusion methods. This method enhances the tumor to background ratio by increasing the actual  radioligand accumulated inside the tumor cells. This technique works for any radiolabeled compound whose cellular uptake is limited by a cellular process of either binding to a cellular receptor or to a transport protein. Once the radiolabeled compound is bound and internalized, the ability of an unlabeled compound to compete with the radioligand is markedly decreased. The primary factor governing residence time after internalization is the physical half-life of the radioisotope, not biologic half-life.
