Patent EP-0422714-A3 (EP)
Title: Edible fat composition
IPC: A23D7/05
Filed: 1990-09-28
Abstract: Edible spreads are prone to microbiological spoilage by a number of organisms, including molds and bacteria as well as by physical changes occurring on storage. While the growth of these organisms and consequently the onset of spoilage can be inhibited by the use of preservatives, some consumers find preservatives unacceptable. We have determined that in edible fat products wherein the fat phase comprise a homogeneous dispersion of fine crystals and in which the fat phase is essentially free of crystalline aggregates spoilage is greatly reduced. Anhydrous products can be produced by melting the fat, substantially in the absence of an aqueous medium, cooling the melted fat to a temperature at which partial crystallization occurs, homogenising the partially crystallised fat, and, cooling the homogenised fat to further crystallise the fat. By means of a modified process it is possible to produce comprising 50-60% fat phase, 40-50% water phase, 0.1-1% lecithin, 0.01-1% salt, being essentially free of monoglycerides, proteins and sorbate salts, which are stable on storage.

Patent EP-0399723-A3 (EP)
Title: Improvement in switching system reliability
IPC: H04Q3/545
Filed: 1990-05-16
Abstract: A switching system is disclosed in which inter-switch unit trunks 
(100,101,102) interconnect the switch units (200,201,202) of a 
distributed switching system and when the central switch (10), 
which normally advances connections between the switch units is 
unavailable, connections between switch units are advanced by control units of the 
switch units over the inter-switch unit trunks. The inter-switch unit trunks comprise 
a connection arrangement which is an alternative to the central switch and, 
advantageously, trunk services such as scanning, are provided to the inter-switch unit 
trunks only when the central switch is not available for connections. In one 
embodiment, the control unit of a first switch unit detects the unavailability of the 
central switch to advance connections and in response to a request for connection to 
destination line or trunk at a second switch unit transmits signaling information on a 
selected inter-switch unit trunk to the second switch unit. The second switch unit 
responds to the signaling information by completing a connection from the selected 
inter-switch unit trunk to the destination. In a second embodiment, an alternative 
path between an origination and destination switch unit is completed, via a first and 
second inter-switch unit trunk, which are serially connected by a selected path 
through an intermediate switch unit. In an additional embodiment, alternative paths 
between switch units are provided by selective connections between trunks 
connected to a second switching office, such as a toll switching office.
Patent EP-0399838-A3 (EP)
IPC: B23K20/00
Filed: 1990-05-25
Abstract: An improved means and method for bonding closely spaced 
parallel wires (42) for applications in electronic devices, 
circuits and assemblies is described herein. A wire guiding 
means (60,66) is provided located between a bonding wedge (40) 
and a releasable wire clamp (53) of a conventional wire bonder 
(30). The wire guide means (60,66) has a slot (68) which 
constrains motion of the wire (42) during bonding to a plane 
perpendicular to the plane of the bonding pad (18) and 
substantially prevents motion of the wire (42) transverse to 
this perpendicular plane. This prevents the bonding from 
introducing minute variations in the transverse displacement 
of the wires (42), such variations being absorbed by small 
variations (50, 50C) in the wire loop height.

Title: Process for producing highlight color copies
Inventor: BEACH RICHARD J
IPC: H04N1/60
Filed: 1996-12-11
Abstract: For digital color copying of full color source images, scanned-in by a color scanner (21), full
color representations of the source images are processed (23) to extract image characterizing
information from them. This image characterizing information is, in turn, employed to index into a
plurality of full color-to-highlight color transforms to automatically select the most appropriate one of
these transforms (25) for rendering each of the separately characterized regions of the source
image. One of the color transforms is the default transform, so it is selected when a more
appropriate transform is not available in accordance with a predetermined mapping of the image
characterizing information onto the available transforms. Various image processing techniques can
be employed to characterize the scanned in representation of the image, including image
segmentation and image annotation recognition.

Abstract: Two Hepatitis C Virus envelope proteins (E1 and E2) are expressed without
sialylation. Recombinant expression of these proteins in lower eukaryotes, or
in mammalian cells in which terminal glycosylation is blocked, results in recombinant
proteins which are more similar to native HCV glycoproteins. When isolated
by GNA lectin affinity, the E1 and E2 proteins aggregate into virus-like particles.
Cells bearing a mannose receptor or asialoglycoprotein receptor are capable
of being infected with HCV, and supporting culturing of the virus.
