Abstract: The present invention concerns a method and device for closing off one or more passages in a ring furnace for calcining of carbon bodies in which the furnace, during the calcining process, over an area comprising a small number of sections, is divided into a preheating zone, a firing zone and a cooling zone, which are together successively moved forwards in the furnace. In order to control the false air intake from a first section (K-1) before the preheating zone to the first section (K1) in the preheating zone, one or more lowerable air dampers (4) are placed in the head wall (2). When the air damper (4) or air dampers is/are lowered, it/they blocks/block the supply of false air from the first section (K-1) before the preheating zone to the first section (K1) in the preheating zone.

Abstract: Immunogenic recombinant peptide (I) is the methylated form of an expression product of a nucleic acid (II) that encodes a mycobacterial heparin-binding hemagglutinin antigen (HBHA), especially from Mycobacterium bovis BCG or M. tuberculosis, is new. Independent claims are also included for: (1) processes for preparing (I); (2) recombinant vector that encodes HBHA and at least one recombinant mycobacterial methyltransferase; (3) host cell that harbors a vector of (2); (4) (I) produced by method (1); and (5) immunogenic composition containing any methylated form of HBHA. ACTIVITY : Tuberculostatic. Mice were immunized with native HBHA (5 mu g), 3 times at 2 week intervals. The titer of HBHA-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) was then 5000, principally IgG1. Ten weeks after the first immunization, the animals were challenged with 10 5> colony-forming units (cfu) of M. tuberculosis and after 6 weeks the number of cfu in various organs was measured. Compared with adjuvant-only controls, the vaccination caused a reduction, in log10 cfu, of 0.94 in liver; 0.85 in spleen and 0.93 in lungs. Equivalent results (not quoted) were achieved with recombinant methylated HBHA. MECHANISM OF ACTION : Vaccine.

Abstract: Two computer systems in a network each have a local store that contains a copy of a data item that is to be synchronized. One of the computer systems may be, for example, a mobile device while the other may be a synchronization server. In order to determine whether to synchronize a data item, and what synchronization mechanism to use, one of the computer systems references a flexible set of rules that may be influenced by instructions from a network administrator or a mobile device user. The flexible set of rules takes into consideration the value of the data, the cost associated with synchronization, the security of the synchronization mechanisms, the security of the mobile device, as well as the location of the mobile user in dictating whether and how to synchronize. <IMAGE>
