Abstract: Un mélange mère d'élastomère est traité dans un mélangeur continu équipé de plusieurs rotors allongés et parallèles orientés axialement dans une chambre de traitement allongée. Facultativement des matières additionnelles sont mélangées dans le mélange mère, telles que des additifs, d'autres compositions élastomères et autres. Ensuite le mélange mère est de préférence traité dans un laminoir ouvert. On obtient une viscosité Mooney excellente. Dans certaines formes de réalisation préférées, on produit des composites élastomères à l'aide de nouveaux procédés et d'un appareil à flux continu dans lesquels les écoulements fluides de matière de charge particulaire et de latex élastomère sont envoyés dans la zone de mélange d'un réacteur à coagulat pour former un mélange coagulé dans un flux semi-confiné circulant en continu entre la zone de mélange via une zone de coagulat et une extrémité de sortie du réacteur. Le fluide de matière de charge particulaire est envoyé à haute pression dans la zone de mélange de manière à former un jet de fluide qui entraîne le fluide de latex élastomère avec suffisamment d'énergie pour coaguler sensiblement totalement l'élastomère avec la matière de charge particulaire jusqu'à l'extrémité de sortie sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'ajouter de l'acide ou une solution saline ou une autre étape de coagulation. Le composite coagulé d'élastomère et de matière de charge particulaire est envoyé dans le mélangeur continu déjà mentionné pour traiter et réguler le niveau d'humidité et la viscosité Mooney. De nouveaux composites élastomères sont produits de la sorte. Ces derniers offrent une combinaison encore jamais atteinte de propriétés et de caractéristiques de la matière telles que le choix de la matière de charge, de l'élastomère, de la quantité de matière de charge, du niveau d'humidité, de la viscosité Mooney,  de l'équilibre entre le poids moléculaire et la quantité de caoutchouc lié, et de la macro-dispersion.

Abstract: The present invention encompasses radiolabeled peptide analogs of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) labeled with a radionuclide useful for imaging target sites within mammalian living systems. The invention particularly provides radiolabeled VIP derivatives that bind selectively to the VIP receptor on target cells. Specifically, the invention relates to the radiolabeling of VIP-receptor specific agents and their subsequent use for radiodiagnostic and radiotherapeutic purposes. The invention encompasses methods for radiolabeling these peptides with radio-nuclides and the use of these peptides as scintigraphic imaging agents. The radiolabeled VIP derivatives of the present invention exhibit pharmacological activity and therefore are useful as either imaging agent for visualization of VIP-receptor positive tumors and metastases, as a radiodiagnostic agent or as a radio-therapeutic agent for the treatment of such tumors in vivo by specifically targeting the cytotoxic radionuclide selectively to the tumor site in mammalian living systems.

Abstract: The present invention provides a miniature, built-in multi-band antenna which is suitable for use in future compact mobile terminals. According to exemplary embodiments, a semi built-in printed antenna is provided which includes patch elements of different sizes and capable of being tuned to different frequency bands. An internal patch element is located on a printed circuit board (PCB) within a communication device and another patch element is located outside the PCB. On each patch element is formed a slot which divides the patch element into sub-parts. Each sub-part of the internal patch element is structured so as to be resonant at a frequency in the same frequency band to which the internal patch element is tuned. Each sub-part of the external patch element is similarly structured but having a resonance with a larger bandwidth than the internal patch element and at a frequency band to which the external patch element is tuned. As a result, a high efficiency, broad band, multi-band, and surface mountable low profile antenna can be realized.

This structure allows to introduce a fluid with spermatozoids, embryos or therapeutic solutions to the anterior third of the uterus horn, or to obtain embryos from the anterior portions of the uterus horn, and all this without sedation or anesthesia and without disturbing the animal's well-being. To facilitate obtaining embryos, the probe includes an elastic small external coating (28) that is inflated through a flexible tube (27) for adapting itself to the uterus horn (22) preventing refluxes when carrying out absorption. It is essentially applied to porcine livestock, small ruminants and any other animal species. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A charge maintenance system for a lead-acid battery includes a charger, a voltage monitor, and a load/switch series combination, all connectable in parallel across the battery terminals, the switch and the charger being under control of a microprocessor. The battery is initially loaded for a predetermined time period, or until the battery voltage drops below an absolute minimum reference level during a loading cycle, and the system stores the lowest battery terminal voltage occurring during the loading cycle. After a predetermined delay following the loading cycle the charger is activated to charge the battery until it reaches a maximum charge level. Then, if the stored lowest battery voltage level is below a predetermined reference level, the loading/charging routine is repeated, otherwise it is not and the battery is considered good. If the stored lowest battery voltage level remains below the threshold for ten consecutive loading cycles, the system indicates that the battery failed the test but could be subject to retest. If the stored lowest battery voltage level is below an absolute minimum reference voltage level after three consecutive loading cycles, the system indicates that the battery is bad and should be discarded.

Abstract: A stage-implemented QoS shaping scheme is provided for a data communication switch. The stage-implemented QoS shaping scheme may be implemented by augmenting an existing packet forwarding logic. Inbound packets or other input signals enter the switch with inbound QoS or priority information. The inbound QoS information and packet header data are used by the switch to determine internal and outbound QoS information in stages. The first stage receives a key including addressing and other information and determines a QoS shaping index. In the second stage, the QoS shaping index is used to select QoS shaping maps, and the inbound QoS information is mapped to the QoS shaping maps to select internal and outbound QoS information. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is a 43-kDa member of the collectin family of collagenous lectin domain-containing proteins that is expressed in epithelial cells of the lung. The SP-D gene was targeted by homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells that were used to produce SP-D (-/-) mice. The SP-D (-/-) deficiency caused inflammation, increased oxidant production by isolated alveolar macrophages, abnormal surfactant structure and levels, and decreased SP-A expression. Therefore, disclosed is the SP-D (-/-) mouse as an excellent model for emphysema. Also included are models for testing emphysema therapies in the mouse model, methods for using SP-D protein or DNA as a treatment for emphysema and pulmonary infections, and diagnosis.
