Abstract: In the preparation of alkenyl succinic anhydride (ASA) from an olefinically unsaturated hydrocarbon and a maleic anhydride, additives are used in the preparation reaction in order to improve the yield of the product and to reduce side reactions. According to the present invention, quinone and hydroquinone derivatives as well as dialkyl sulfoxides and transition-metal acetylacetonate have such properties. The amounts to be added are approx. 0.01-2 mol % of the amount of maleic anhydride. The olefin is preferably a straight-chain  alpha -olefin or a straight-chain or branched internal olefin having a chain length of 6-20 carbon atoms. The olefin may also be a polyolefin, in which case the preferred molecular weight is 900-1500. The preparation process may be of the batch type or the semi-batch type, and the maleic anhydride and the additive may be added in several batches or as a continuous feed which may be even or variable. The ASA obtained by the process may be used in particular as an additive in foods, for hydroxy sizing of paper, or as a dispersing agent in lubricants.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to
various methods for promoting ovulation, parturition
and lactation in female mammals. These benefits are
obtained by administering to the mammals a composition
containing a D 2  receptor antagonist that does not
substantially cross the blood brain barrier. In one
embodiment, the D 2  receptor antagonist is domperidone.
The domperidone can be administered to the mammal
either orally or subcutaneously and can be used to
treat, for instance, anestrous mammals, mammals that
have problems bearing offspring and mammals suffering
from agalactia. Unexpectedly, it has also been
discovered that the D 2  receptor antagonist may also
stimulate feed intake, causing the mammal to eat more
and gain weight faster.

Abstract: An expandable intraluminal endoprosthesis comprising a tubular member (1) a first
diameter which permits intraluminal delivery of the member into a lumen of a body
passageway, particularly a blood vessel. The tubular member (1) is capable of acquiring
a second, expanded and deformed diameter upon the application from the interior of the
tubular member of a radially outwardly extending force, which second diameter is
variable and dependent on the amount of said force applied to the tubular member. Such
a tubular member may be expanded and deformed to expand the lumen of the body
passageway. According to the invention the wall of said tubular member is formed by a
continuous filament (2) which is separated from a tube wall. Said filament (2) comprises
a number of adjacent undulations which are staggered in a substantially helical
configuration advancing around a longitudinal axis of the tubular body. A first helical
turn (A-H) of said filament around said longitudinal axis of said tubular member is
connected to an adjacent second such turn (A-H) of said filament by means of at least
one connection element (31,32) which is an integral extension of said filament.

Abstract: The temperature at which an oxide dielectric thin
film is formed can be made bottom than conventional by
reducing the concentration of oxygen in an atmosphere for
forming the thin film. As a result, there can be formed an
oxide dielectric thin film which has a crystal structure
preferentially oriented at a crystal plane allowing a
polarization axis to be directed in the vertical direction,
eliminates any reaction with an electrode material, and
controls the growth of crystal grains. The use of such an
oxide dielectric thin film can provide an oxide dielectric
element having a high spontaneous polarization and a small
coercive field. 
     Consequently, it is possible to achieve a dielectric
element having a high density of integration for detecting
reading and writing operations, and a semiconductor device
using the same.

Abstract: A method for growing of oriented whisker arrays on a single-crystalline substrate consists in vapor-phase transport of the material to be crystallized form a solid-state source body of the same composition as the whiskers to the substrate coated with liquid-phase particles that serve as nucleation/catalyzing centers for the whisker growth. The source body has a plane surface that is faced to the substrate and parallel to it so that a vectorly-uniform temperature field, whose gradient is perpendicular to both the substrate and the source, is created. The vectorly-uniform temperature field is realized by an apparatus with high-frequency heating of specially designed bodies that are arranged in a special position in respect to the high-frequency inductor. Laser and/or lamp heat sources can be also used either separately or in combinations with the high-frequency heater. In the apparatus, the material source is heated, while the substrate takes heat from the material source. In another case, the substrate is heated, while the material source takes heat from the substrate.
