Abstract: Methods and products for modulating an immune response are provided. Pharmaceutical preparations contain a conjugate of an antigen and an FcRn binding partner. The conjugates are administered to mammals in effective amounts to modulate the immune system by stimulating the immune response against the antigen or tolerizing the immune system to the antigen. The antigen may be characteristic of a pathogen, of an autoimmune disease, of an allergen or of a tumor.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method and devices for checking security documents. According to this process which uses known capacitive coupling, electrical signals are transmitted by transmitting antennae via electrically conductive security features to receiving antennae and amplified. The amplitude responses and time characteristics of the electrical signals are then evaluated and compared with existing signal responses, by being converted into signal responses having easily comparable parameters. In order to enable the testing arrangement to be specifically selective, a selective amplifier is additionally coupled to the evaluation electronics. Currency-specific definition by means of the evaluation electronics according to the invention is attained in that, for a given currency, a time limit of the test signal amplitude can be determined by means of controllers, for example, this time limit differing from the duration of the amplitude response of all the other currencies.

Abstract: The invention is an improved single-step test device for detecting the presence of a pre-selected analyte in a urine stream. The device has a hollow outer casing and an assay material disposed within the casing. The outer casing defines: a urine inlet port; a viewing window; and at least one drainage vent spaced about the urine inlet port. The assay material is a sorptive material defining: a urine sample application region adjacent to, and in fluid communication with the urine inlet port; a capture region adjacent to the viewing window; and a fluid flow path for transporting liquid sample between the urine sample application region and the analyte capture region. The drainage vent is located to permit excess urine entering the casing from the urine stream to exit the casing thereby to minimize hydraulic pressure induced flooding of the assay material disposed within the casing and to reduce the frequency of false test results.

Four welding heads (1, 2, 3, 4) have welding tools (11, 12, 13, 14) aligned with the mitres for welding the corners and the other heads (5, 6), which lie between the corner welding heads, are used for welding in an abutment (10) and have angled welding tools (15, 16), each having a long shank (17) enabling it to weld corners. In a frame welding process: (a) a part of a frame is manufactured, especially an A-frame; (b) a reinforcing bar is introduced into a channel of the part frame; and (c) the frame is completed by welding in the remaining profile. Preferably the angled welding tools (15, 16) also have a short shank (18) for welding in of an abutment (10). The welding heads (5, 6) can be operated in conjunction with both pairs of corner welding heads (1, 4; 2, 3) in a single welding stage to simultaneously manufacture two window frames. Two welding heads (2, 3), each with an angled welding tool, are used to weld a common profile completing an prewelded A-frame. Holders for the profiles before and during welding move in the plane of the frame and/or at a right angle to it or press the profile against the prewelded frame or another profile.
