Title: Method of screening for protein inhibitors and activators.
Inventor: HOUSEY GERARD M
IPC: C12Q1/00
Filed: 1989-02-09
Abstract: Method of determining whether a substance is an inhibitor or activator of a protein whose prodn. by a cell evokes a responsive change in a phenotypic characteristic other than the level of the protein in the cell per se is claimed, which comprises (a) providing a first cell line (CLI) which produces the protein and exhibits the phenotypic response to the protein, (b) providing a second cell line (CLII) which produces the protein at a lower level than CLI or does not produce the protein at all and which exhibits the phenotypic response to the protein to a lesser degree or not at all, (c) incubating the substance with CLI and CLII and (d) comparing the phenotypic response of the CLI to the substance with the phenotypic response of the CLII to the substance. - Phenotypic changes which may be observed and compared are e.g. ability of the cells to grow in an anchorage-independent manner, to grow in soft agar, to form foci in cell culture and to take up selected strains.

Abstract: Procédé et appareil d'application d'une ou plusieurs couches superposées d'une composition de revêtement photographique par un procédé de revêtement dit "par rideau" sur un support mobile. L'espacement entre les guides de bord, utilisés pour maintenir la largeur d'un rideau sur toute sa chute depuis la trémie jusqu'à la ligne de contact sur le support, est agencé pour appliquer un revêtement inférieur à la largeur du support de manière à obtenir une marge non revêtue sur le support. Les fluides du rideau sont extraits de la région de bordure du rideau tombant en connectant un dispositif d'aspiration aux guides de bord à proximité du point de contact du rideau tombant, réduisant ainsi sensiblement l'épaisseur du rideau au niveau de sa région de bordure et, en conséquence, réduisant l'épaisseur des bords revêtus.

IPC: B29B17/00
Filed: 1990-02-17
Abstract: A process is proposed for the preparation of a thermosetting compression-moulding compound from a glass fibre/polyester composite material, in particular SMC, BMC or DMC. Waste parts 1 from compressed SMC, BMC or DMC are comminuted in a comminuter 3, where the glass fibre/polyester composite structure breaks up mechanically. The glass fibres recovered in this way are separated from the pulverulent recycling fraction in a vibrating screen (sieve) 5 and subjected to a specific surface treatment. Wetting agents are added to the pulverulent recycling fraction. In the preparation of the novel thermosetting moulding compound, the pulverulent recycling fraction obtained is incorporated into the resin paste as recycling filler. The recycled glass fibres substantially replace the original glass fibres otherwise required. Recycling SMC prepared by the process using waste parts contains up to 40% of recovered pulverulent recycling fraction and up to 40% of recycled glass fibres. The mouldings pressed from this recycling SMC have virtually the same good technical properties as mouldings made from original SMC.

Abstract: After a silicon nitride film (21) is deposited on a compound semiconductor substrate (20), another insu­lating film (22) such as a silicon dioxide film is pro­vided thereon so as to define a channel region (26) in the semiconductor substrate (22). Impurity ions such as Si ions are selectively implanted into the semiconductor substrate (20) in the presence of the silicon nitride film (21) and the insulating film (22), thereby pro­viding drain and source regions (24, 25) and the channel region (26) therein. The insulating film (22) and the silicon nitride film (21) located above the channel region (26) are successively removed to provide a Schottky gate electrode (31) thereon. The silicon nitride film (21) is selectively removed from the substrate surface to provide drain and source electrodes (29, 30) on their regions (24, 25). Accordingly, MES FETs can be produced without exposing the substrate surface during its manufacture.

Abstract: A device and method for accessing the uterus to manipulate it or to introduce fluids or other devices into it. The device includes a shaft having a first, expandable distal member (14) which is inserted into the uterus (1) and a second, inflatable proximal member (16) which is inserted partially into the cervical canal (C). The proximal member automatically adjusts to the length of the cervical canal upon inflation because only the proximal portion (66) of the proximal member which is outside of the cervical canal expands. During use of the device, the distal member is expanded within the uterus and the shaft is withdrawn proximally until the expanded distal device contacts the internal os of the cervix. The proximal member is then inflated proximal to the exterior os of the cervix. The distal portion (64) of the proximal member lies within and is obstructed by the cervical canal. The distal and proximal members thereby cooperate to securely couple the shaft to the uterus by automatically adjusting to the length of the cervical canal.
