Abstract: In order to observe the dry line formed on the surface of wood fibre pulp on the moving wire in a Fourdrinier paper machine, its-atrea of appearance is scanned at a low angle with a thin beam cluster (A 1, B 1 ) which, being generated by a laser radiation source ( 20 ) and representing one or more discrete wavelengths, is distinguishable from the background light. Hereby the surface following the dry line (I) reflects diffusively a major part and specularly a minor part of the arriving radiation than the surface preceding it. A detector ( 30 ) located above the level of the wire observes the intensity of the diffusely reflected radiation (A 3, B 3 ) hitting it and delivers continuously, as the beam cluster scans the pulp surface, a signal which is proportional to said intensity. The signal is digitized repeatedly and processed in real time in a computer, whereby a series of signals in the direction of the paper machine produces one dry line point and, if repeated for different positions in the cross direction, the dry line consisting of such points. The dry line and the values of quantities and deviations characterizing it are displayed by graphical and numerical terminals and actuators of the paper machine are controlled according to it automatically, synchronously with the scanning of the dry line region. The method can be implemented also in such paper machine environments, to which the earlier methods for structural reasons do not apply.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and compositions for synthesizing an oligopeptide or polypeptide by convergent assembly of a plurality of pairs of oligopeptides in chemical ligation reactions. An important aspect of the present invention is an oligopeptide having a C-terminal disulfide-protected carboxythioester group that can be deprotected to spontaneously generate a free C-terminal thioester moiety. This allows a single precursor to participate in a succession of chemical ligation reactions, thereby making the convergent synthesis approach possible. The present invention is useful in methods for chemical synthesis of oligopeptides, polypeptides and proteins, and improves the efficiency of native chemical ligation reactions, particularly where four or more peptide fragments are used to assemble an oligopeptide, polypeptide or protein product.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un circuit amplificateur à amplification réglable comprenant plusieurs amplificateurs différenciateurs (4) montés en parallèle et raccordés à une cascode (5) commune. Ces amplificateurs différenciateurs (4) sont activés séparément par une unité de commande (12) en réponse à un signal de commande appliqué. Ce principe permet, avec une linéarité élevée, d'éliminer les inductances dans les amplificateurs différenciateurs et par là même de limiter les diaphonies indésirables. Il permet en outre d'adapter la consommation électrique de l'amplificateur en fonction de la puissance de sortie pouvant être prélevée. Le principe selon l'invention est adapté en particulier à une utilisation dans des appareils radiotéléphoniques mobiles UMTS.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for protecting an electrode during the resistance welding of workpieces, in particular sheet metal. Said device comprises a strip that is placed over the electrode and can be displaced in relation to the latter, a backing material of said strip having an electrically conductive coating. To improve the welding quality, the coating is applied to the opposite side of the strip from the electrode and consists of a material, whose hardness is less than that of the backing material of the strip. The soft, electrically conductive coating improves the transfer of current from the electrode to the workpiece, thus preventing weld spatter and improving the welding quality.
