This agent can be prepared by suspending the high amylose starch in water, heating the slurry thus obtained to about 80 DEG -100 DEG  C., preferably 90 DEG -100 DEG  C., under continuous controlled stirring without shearing but sufficient to avoid particle aggregation and so as to form the desired particle gel product, and then cooling the product. It can be used in food preparations as a fat substitute and/or a whitening agent.

Abstract: A video scrambling and descrambling system that produces color video that is difficult or annoying to watch by randomly switching the color components of a component or composite video. In the scrambling portion, component or composite video is decoded into a luminance component and its two color components. A random switching signal is generated to randomly switch the relationship of the color component signals. The randomly switched color component signals may be encoded together with the luminance signal to produce a component or composite video signal that is scrambled. The random switching signal may be transmitted as part of the encoded signal or through a separate data channel medium. A descrambling portion first separates the scrambled component or composite video signal into a luminance component and two scrambled color components. The random switching signal transmitted to the descrambler along with the scrambled video signal is used to restore the original relationship between the color component signals. The luminance component as well as the two descrambled color components are then encoded to produce a component or composite video with the relationship between the color components restored to their respective original positions in the video signal. The method may be used in various transmission and recording formats.

Abstract: Wet clay products placed on trays (3) at a loading station (Db) are conveyed (11) to an entry zone (A), where vertical stacks 16 trays high are erected on the ends of 6 parallel conveyors (10), passing through the drier (B), by successive crane lifts (12,14,16). The drier doors open, allowing these stacks to enter, and 6 dried stacks to emerge at the other end (C). The latter, by a converse but similar lifting process (18,20,22), are broken down to single trays from which the products are removed (Da) and sent by conveyor (23) for firing, while the empty trays (3) return (11) to the loading station (Db). The operation continues cyclically, with step-by-step movement of the drier conveyors (10). A variant employs robot handlers at entry and exit, with continuously moving drier conveyors.

Abstract: Novel lipid-nucleic acid particulate complexes which are useful for in vitro or in vivo gene transfer are described. The particles can be formed using either detergent dialysis methods or methods which utilize organic solvents. Upon removal of a solubilizing component (i.e. detergent or an organic solvent) the lipid-nucleic acid complexes form particles wherein the nucleic acid is serum-stable and is protected from degradation. The particles thus formed have access to extravascular sites and target cell populations and are suitable for the therapeutic delivery of nucleic acids.

Abstract: An angiographic injector system (10) includes a motor driven pump (18) which delivers radiographic contrast material to a catheter (30) at a variable flow rate which is interactively controlled by a user. Operation of the pump (18) is controlled by the user, through a user actuated remote control (14). The angiographic system (10) also includes a manifold (26) and a valve which selectively connects either a syringe pump (18) or a low pressure system (38) to a catheter (30) which is inserted into a patient. The valve is normally biased to a state which connects the low pressure system (38) to the catheter (30) for pressure monitoring, saline flushing, or aspirating functions. When an injection is to be made, the valve automatically switches so that the low pressure system (38) is disconnected and not exposed to high pressure, while the syringe pump (18) is connected through the manifold (26) to the catheter (30).

Abstract: A chemical timer for a direct-reading reagent test strip changes color a predetermined time after a biological fluid is applied to the strip. The strip measures the concentration of an analyte in the fluid. The timer is a dry coating of an indicator, an enzyme-containing reagent that when hydrated can react with glucose to change the color of the indicator, an inhibitor to inhibit the change in color of the indicator, glucose, and optionally, an aldose that does not react with the enzyme in the reagent. Preferably, the reagent and glucose are present in excess in the coating, and the time it takes for the timer color to change can be controlled by the inhibitor concentration. The aldose provides timer stability, probably by interfering with glycosylation by the glucose in the dry state.

Abstract: The floss is comprised of one or more strands of a tensilized polytetrafluoroethylene. The polytetrafluoroethylene is tensilized by stretching with heating to increase the tensile strength and to decrease elongation. The floss is readily grippable since it has an irregular surface. The polytetrafluoroethylene is made to have an irregular surface by having a solid incorporated into the fiber structure. The solid has a diameter of from about submicron size up to about 125% of the thickness diameter of the fiber. The floss will have a coefficient of friction of more than about 0.08. There is an acceptable grippability without the need for a coating. In addition, the solid that is incorporated into the fiber can be a bioactive material for delivery of the bioactive material to the teeth and gums during flossing.

Abstract: Synchronization and bit count integrity of a synchronous data stream is preserved end to end even as it is transmitted via a medium which does not preserve the synchronous nature of the synchronous data stream. A terminal equipment unit produces a constant rate bit stream which is provided to a communications unit. The communications unit produces first, second, and third data frames comprising, respectively, first, second, and third set of bits from the constant rate bit stream and first, second, and third length fields. The first, second, and third data frames are transmitted to a base unit which places the first set of bits from the first frame into a queue. A set of fill bits equal to the maximum number of bits contained in any frame is then placed into the queue. The base unit then determines the number of bits in the second set of bits of the third data frame, based on the first length field value and the third length field value. The base unit overwrites excess fill bits in the queue with the third set of bits. The number of excess fill bits is equal to the difference between the maximum possible number of bits which may be contained in any frame and the number of bits in the second set of bits.
