Abstract: Sulfoalkyl ether cyclodextrins are produced by a process of treating an unsubstituted cyclodextrin starting material with an alkyl sultone in the presence of a base. The base is added in a stepwise, pH controlled manner so that substantially the entire initial charge of cyclodextrin starting material is at least partially reacted. Additional base is then added to complete the reaction, and residual alkyl sultone is destroyed. The product advantageously contains low levels of both residual cyclodextrin and residual alkyl sultone.

Abstract: The invention concerns an in-line roller skate (1), which comprises a rigid shell (2) wherein a flexible inner shoe (5) is housed. The latter is advantageously lined at the level of its leg portion (51) by a cover (54), thereby defining with it a sheath substantially open downward in which the upper part (24) of the shell (2) is housed. In this way, when the skater's ankle bends forwards it is supported by the inner shoe (5) as a result of the interference arising between the cover (54) and the upper part (24) of the shell (2). This allows a great freedom of movement in a longitudinal direction for the skater's ankle, which can be bent even in a very accentuated manner, differently from what occurs in the known skates, where the bottom of the leg is enclosed in a rigid leg portion. At the same time, good support is maintained in a lateral direction owing to the upper part of the shell (24) which allows the transmission of the guiding movements. According to a preferred embodiment, the cover (54) may be hinged to the shell in the malleolar regions. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention concerns a lighter-than-water probe (1, 8), equipped with a sensor for measuring variables, themselves covered with a sealing pressure-resistant protective capsule (8). The method consists in dropping the assembly on the seabed by ballasting the capsule(steps a, b, c, d); then in controlling (step e) the release of the probe by placing the capsule (8). By the action of hydrostatic forces and gravity, the probe overturns (step f) and starts going up (step g), sensors facing upwards; the very release of the probe itself controls the activation of the sensors, the sampling process and the recording of data on board thereof. When it surfaces (step h), the data are transferred by radiofrequency channel means to a centre for processing the measurements.

Abstract: A sanitary waste disposal unit (1) including a scalable destruction chamber (11), a vacuum pump (23), a source of heat (15) and means (29) for the controlled introduction of air into the chamber (11). In use the waste is introduced on the chamber (11) which is then evacuated to remove substantially all the oxygen, and heated to sterilize the waste material to approximately 300-500° C. The chamber (11) is then cooled to approximately 150° C., a temperature sufficiently high enough to allow combustion of the waste material, which has been partially carbonized. A limited quantity of air is introduced into the chamber allowing combustion of the waste material and the combustion products are removed from the chamber.

Abstract: Even when a jaggy occurs in an original image, the image is accurately enlarged and a good image cannot be obtained as a result. In the case of performing pixel interpolation on an image in a dot matrix state, image data is entered in step 100, the whole image is scanned while shifting a marked pixel, and whether or not an edge exists in the direction of 45 or 135 degrees by using the marked pixel as a reference is detected in step 115. When an edge at 45 or 135 degrees exists, the edge is smoothed in the direction of either 45 degrees in step 120 or 135 degrees in step 125. After that, pixel interpolation is carried out irrespective of the presence or absence of an edge. Consequently, when there are irregular edges, it can be prevented that an image is directly subjected to pixel interpolation and a jaggy occurs. <IMAGE>
