Abstract: The present invention relates to shark cartilage extracts and to a method of producing the same, these extracts having anti-angiogenic properties (reduction of the area of blood vessels observed in vivo on experimentally induced tumors), tumor regressive activity in vivo as well as demonstrating a direct inhibitory effect on tumor cell lines. This process does not involve any denaturing solvent or product and does not involve the use of any enzymes. It consists of obtaining a blend of whole cartilage in an aqueous solution of neutral pH, preferably pure water, this blend being centrifuged and the pellet and supernatant kept for further processing. The pellet is lyophylized and tested for anti-tumor and anti-angiogenic activities in vivo and in vitro, with or without supernatant. The supernatant has been shown to have anti-angiogenic and tumor regressive activities in vivo. The composition of the supernatant has then been investigated by different ways. Fractionation of this supernatant led to the characterization of some of its active components. The fractions were tested for their direct in vitro activity on cancer cell lines. Therefore, it is assumed that the non-fractionated supernatant has such an in vitro activity. Lyophilization substantially destroys the activity of these liquid fractions while no such abolition is observed in the solid extract.

Date Dec. 21, 1995A signal transmission system comprises a transmitter arranged to transmit a coded signal as a series of pulses of line of sight radiation having a predetermined minimum interval therebetween, a receiver responsive to such radiated pulses received at a corresponding minimum interval, and a plurality of repeater devices. Each repeater device comprises a radiation receiving element, a radiation transmitting element, and means responsive to receipt of a pulse of transmitted energy by said receiving element for causing said transmitting element to emit a corresponding pulse of transmitted energy and for causing said receiving element to be disabled for a predetermined period of time corresponding to at least a multiple of the duration of the pulse transmitted by said transmitting element. A plurality of the repeater devices can thus be arrayed between said transmitter and receiver to provide a plurality of line of sight radiation propagation paths with a plurality of repeaters each in line of sight of the transmitter and/or other repeaters and with the receiver in line of sight of a plurality of said repeaters so that random interruption of the signal propagation paths does not interrupt the transmitted signal. Each repeater may comprise its own transmitter and key pad to provide an audience polling system.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de traitement de semences. Ce procédé consiste à placer les semences au contact d'une première surface d'une membrane semi-perméable (2) comportant une première et une deuxième surfaces, la deuxième surface étant en contact direct avec une solution d'un potentiel osmotique prédéterminé (5). Les semences (6) attirent ainsi l'eau de la solution à travers la membrane (2), ce qui assure le déplacement constant ou périodique de la semence (6) et de la membrane semi-perméable (2) l'une par rapport à l'autre de telle sorte que la semence (6) est constamment ou périodiquement réorientée par rapport à la première surface. Cela assure le transfert de l'eau de manière homogène sensiblement sur la totalité de la surface de la semence. En ce qui concerne la prégermination de la semence, la pression osmotique et la période pendant laquelle les semences (6) sont maintenues en contact avec la membrane (2) sont suffisantes pour permettre la réalisation des processus métaboliques prégerminatifs dans les semences, jusqu'au stade précédant immédiatement l'apparition des radicelles. L'invention concerne également des procédés pour assurer la germination de la semence et induire une tolérance à la dessication. De préférence, la membrane semi-perméable (2) est prévue sous forme d'un tube de section circulaire ou polygonale qui tourne avec les semences (6) sur sa surface intérieure et la solution retenue entre sa surface extérieure et un autre corps auquel la membrane est scellée de manière étanche à l'eau.

Abstract: Balancing the load between series compressors is not trivial. An approach os disclosed to balance loads for compression systems which have the characteristic that the surge parameters, S, change in the same direction with rotational speed during the balancing process. Load balancing control involves equalizing the pressure ratio, rotational speed, or power (or functions of these) when the compressors are operating far from surge. Then, as surge is approached, all compressors are controlled, such that they arrive at their surge control lines simultaneously. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and a sealable, sterilizable vessel for detecting the presence of microorganisms in a specimen, the vessel containing a liquid culture medium and a sensor with an indicator medium therein. A gas permeable membrane with a gas impermeable removable seal thereon are provided in a wall of the vessel. If the microorganism to be detected is an anaerobic organism, then the gas impermeable seal is left in place. If the microorganism to be detected is an aerobic organism, then the gas impermeable seal is removed so as to allow the passage of oxygen into the vessel. In a preferred embodiment, the gas permeable membrane allows the passage of oxygen into the vessel while at least partly restricting the passage of carbon dioxide to outside of the vessel. Changes in the indicator medium resulting from a change in gas production (CO2, NH2, H2S, etc.), volatile acid production or pH concentration in the medium, are detected from outside the vessel.
