Abstract: An auxiliary video input terminal (S-terminal) (60) couples luminance amd chrominance input signals to respective inputs of peaking circuits (52, 58) in the display processor (40) of a receiver. The chrominance input signal is subjected to pre-distortion (de-peaking) (80) to correct for sideband amplitude distortion in the chrominance peaking filter of the receiver thereby preventing color distortion in displayed images. The luminance signal is subjected to additional peaking (70) at a frequency greater than the characteristic peaking frequency of the luminance peaking filter thereby enhancing the sharpness of wideband luminance input signals displayed by the receiver. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of mutagenesis by which a predetermined amino acid is introduced into each and every position of a selected set of positions in a preselected region (or several different regions) of a protein to produce library of mutants. The method is based on the premise that certain amino acids play crucial role in the structure and fuction of proteins. Libraries can be generated which contain a high proportion of the desired mutants and are of reasonable size for screening. This libraries can be used to study the role of specific amino acids in protein structure and function and to develop new or improved proteins and polypeptides such as enzymes, antibodies, single chain antibodies and catalytic antibodies.

Abstract: There is disclosed a linear block copolymer comprising at least one triblock I-B-I, wherein I is a block of at least one polymerized conjugated diene of at least five (5) carbon atoms, such as isoprene, and B is a block of a polymer of at least one conjugated diene, different from that used to polymerize the block I, of at least four (4) carbon atoms, such as 1,3-butadiene. The B block is selectively hydrogenated, while each of the I blocks is hydrogenated and therefore retains a sufficient amount of its original unsaturation to vulcanize the copolymer. There is also disclosed an alternative linear block copolymer containing at least one triblock of the first polymer block made from a minor proportion of at least one aryl-substituted olefin, such as styrene, and a major proportion of at least one conjugated diene used to polymerize the block I, the second middle polymer block of at least one diene used to polymerize the block B, and the third polymer block which is the same as the first polymer block. In this alternative copolymer, the middle block is also selectively hydrogenated, thereby leaving the terminal polymer blocks with a sufficient amount of their original unsaturation to vulcanize the copolymer. The polymers can be crosslinked or functionalized through the terminal blocks containing the vinyl unsaturation. There are also disclosed random linear and star-branched block and random copolymers made from the same monomers as the linear block copolymers. Also disclosed are methods of producing the polymers and selectively hydrogenating the aforementioned polymerized dienes.

Abstract: Method of diagnosing and treatment of sympathetically maintained pain. Sympathetically maintained pain is diagnosed and treated using the method of injecting or transdermally applying an  alpha -adrenergic blocking agent selected from the group consisting of alpha -adrenergic antagonist,  alpha -1-adrenergic antagonist,  alpha 2 adrenergic agonist, or other drug that depletes sympathetic norepineprhine. Sympathetic efferent fibers release norepinephrine which in turn activates  alpha -adrenergic receptors. Activation of these receptors, either directly or indirectly, excites nociceptors. Activity in the nociceptors then evokes pain, and causes further discharge of nociceptors. Intravenous administration of phentolamine blocks the activation of  alpha -adrenergic receptors which causes the pain to be relieved. The use of a clonidine, another  alpha -adrenergic blocking agent, in a patch similarly achieved substantive pain reduction.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a metallurgically monolithic integral heated probe for injection molding. An electrical terminal (80) and three portions (90,92,60) of the probe body are made and assembled together with an electrical heating element (72) extending in an aligned bore. The forward portion (90) is made of abrasion resistant high speed steel, while the rest of the probe body is made of hot work tool steel. A removable and reusable filler tube (132) is screwed into a threaded seat (88) in the rear cap portion (60) and a quantity of silver (136) is loaded into it. After a nickel alloy brazing material (131) is applied to the joins, the assembly is heated in a reduced oxygen atmosphere in a vacuum furnace according to a predetermined cycle. The nickel alloy seals all the joins and the silver braze fills all the spaces between the components to provide a metallurgically monolithic integral probe. Using silver which is more conductive and has a lower melting temperature than copper reduces the cycle time and avoids having to heat the assembly into the austenitizing range of the steel body. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A minus power anterior chamber ocular implant for placement in the anterior chamber of a phakic eye having an anatomic lens in situ comprises a negative artificial refracting lens having at least one concave surface, a surface coating which comprises a compatible sulfated polysaccharide medicament coating, such as heparin, and having a structure which positions the artificial lens in the anterior chamber of the eye to prevent contact between the implant and the anatomic lens. The implant compensates for refractive errors or creates a specific refraction to assist in visual function and has increased biocompatibility in the anterior chamber of the eye, thereby preventing or mitigating detrimental effects typically associated with the implantation of an uncoated refractive anterior chamber implant in the eye. A method of preparing such a minus power anterior chamber ocular implant comprises first exposing an uncoated implant to a plasma to generate a plasma-treated implant having a surface containing amines, carboxylic acids, active free radicals or passive free radicals, and thereafter bonding the medicament to the plasma-treated implant surface. A method of treating myopia comprises surgically implanting and anchoring the implant in the phakic eye to compensate for refractive errors.

Abstract: This method of moulding, in particular of moulding a cap (1) with decorative beads (8, 10) made of plastics other than the plastic forming the casing (2), the hinge (5) and the cover (6) of this cap, is noteworthy in that it uses just one mould associated with a press having injection cylinders allowing perpendicular injections, in which mould are defined a first mould cavity having the dimensions of the main body or casing (2) of the cap, and a second side mould cavity having the dimensions of the cover (6) in the open position, having a mould cavity for the connecting hinge (5) level with the top (3) of the first mould cavity which includes the pour-hole (4). This top is surmounted vertically by a first punch (11), the front face of which makes the pour-hole and covers over this top as far as a peripheral step (9), which is formed during the first phase of injection of a first plastic for moulding the casing (2), the hinge (5) and the cover (6), as a result of the presence of the front edge of a first annular ram (sliding element) (12) surrounding the punch (11) and extending, in the initial position, beyond the front face of the latter by the amount of the step (9). This step is adapted to house a first decorative bead (8) which will be moulded in the second injection phase, following the first phase, in which a second plastic is injected after immediate return or retraction of the ram so that its front edge is then located level with the front face of the punch when the second injection phase commences. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A recording/reproducing apparatus for reproducing recorded encoded picture data from a recording medium in varying speed without picture disruption. The recorded picture data are read from the recording medium and stored in a buffer memory (221). A detection circuit (222) detects a picture header in the stored picture data and, depending upon the results of such detection, may or may not supply a clock signal therefrom. If a picture header is not detected, the detection circuit (222) supplies the clock signal to the buffer memory (221) and the delaying circuit (223). In response thereto, the stored picture data are read out from the buffer memory (221) and supplied to the delaying circuit (223) so as to be delayed by a predetermined amount prior to being supplied therefrom. If a picture header is detected during varying speed reproduction by the detection circuit (222), the clock signal is not supplied to the buffer memory (221) and the delaying circuit (223), whereupon the delaying circuit (223) outputs "0"s for a predetermined time period.
