Title: Process for removing waste pox, alendronate and its by-products
Inventor: VENKATARAMANI EDAMANAL S
IPC: C07F9/38
Filed: 1995-06-02
Granted: 1998-02-12
Abstract: Disclosed is a process for removing by-product phosphorus-containing (POx) materials, alendronate and alendronate byproducts from crude mother liquors in an omega amino-1-hydroxy-C2-C6 alkylidene-1,1-bisphosphonic acid synthesis process, e.g. alendronate sodium. Calcium chloride is added first to the crude mother liquors, then calcium oxide to precipitate the POx materials, then neutralized to about pH 7 to complete precipitation. Substantially all of the alendronate sodium active ingredient is removed from the precipitate. Following filtration, the POx filtercake can then be disposed of by incineration, landfilling or reclamation of usable phosphorus as fertilizer. The remaining filtrate can then be further treated in an environmentally acceptable manner by wastewater treatment or recycling to the process.

Abstract: Medical instruments are provided having end effectors (22,24) and end effector actuator apparatus which are rotatable relative to the end effectors. The instruments generally include a tube (20) which is typically coupled to the end effectors via a clevis around which the end effectors pivot, a push rod (60) extending through the tube and coupled to the end effectors, and an actuator apparatus engaging the tube and the push rod with the actuator apparatus including a handle (85) which surrounds and rotatably engages the proximal end of the tube, and a lever arm (75) which pivotally engages the handle and is coupled to the push rod such that pivotal movement of the lever arm relative to the handle effects axial movement of the push rod relative to the tube and pivotal movement of the end effectors. In order to alternatively fix or allow rotation of the actuator apparatus relative to the tube and end effectors, the tube is provided with a plurality of peripherally spaced apart recesses (330) in a portion thereof, and the handle is provided with a resiliently biased contact element (300) which is coupled to an electrode (99) and which when seated in a recess restrains rotation of the outer tube about the longitudinal axis, but which can be unseated by a sufficient relative rotational force. To decouple rotation of the push rod from the lever arm, a generally spherical push rod engaging element (190) is provided in a cylindrical bore (200) of the lever arm. <IMAGE>

Date Mar. 28, 1996A golf cart or caddy and a mobile transmitting device carried by a golf player are each provided with a receiving and evaluating device equipped with a computer for a satellite-controlled positioning system. The two receiving and evaluating devices calculate the respective positions of the golf player and the golf caddy from the signals cyclically received from the satellite system. The mobile transmitting device is provided with a high-frequency manual transmitter which transmits, also cyclically, the positions of the golf player to the golf caddy. The computer of the golf caddy calculates direction and distance of the golf player and stores the data up to the time when the caddy follows the stored path upon a signal. The golf caddy stops at a predetermined distance from the golf player. When a stationary reference transmitter is additionally used for correcting the position data of the golf player and the golf caddy received from the satellite system, specific areas of the golf course can be excluded as forbidden areas, so that these will not be traveled by the golf caddy.

Title: Method and device for producing endless drive belts
IPC: F16G5/14
Filed: 1990-05-21
Granted: 1993-02-25
Abstract: The endless drive belt is produced by winding a pre-formed load-carrying member (6) comprising a cord (8) embedded in a solid but softenable elastic material (10) along and around a surface of an endless compression member belt (2) also comprising a solid but softenable elastic material, thereby forming a layer (4) comprising a plurality of turns, and by simultaneously causing said turns to become intimately bonded to said surface. Said bonding is achieved by applying mutual pressure between said turns and said surface during winding and by selectively softening the surface layers of both said load-carrying member and said endless compression member belt which are to come into contact with each other, just prior to coming into contact with each other. The material of said surface layers is allowed to fuse. Said turns of said load-carrying member are further allowed to be partially impressed in said surface of said endless compression member belt. Softening may be carried out by the application of heat and/or the application of an adhesive. A device for carrying out the above method is also disclosed. With the device disclosed endless drive belts may be easily produced in-house at the time they are required at any size and at minimal costs and capital outlay.

In a preferred embodiment, the antigen is a cancer specific antigen, e.g. PSM, Her2, or FGF8b. The method can be exercised by using traditional polypeptide vaccination, but also by using live attenuated vaccines or nucleic acid vaccination. The invention furthermore provides immunogenic analogues of PSM, Her2 and FGF8b, as well as nucleic acid molecules encoding these analogues. Also vectors and transformed cells are disclosed. The invention also provides for a method for identification of immunogenic analogues of weak or non-immunogenic antigens.
