Abstract: This invention pertains to biocatalysts that are specifically targeted to bind pathogens, such as viruses, and to degrade components of pathogens in order to abrogate their pathogenicity, and to methods of preventing or treating infection by pathogenic organisms. The biocatalysts comprise a binding agent which specifically binds a surface component of a pathogen, for instance the gp120 viral coat protein of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, and a catalytic moiety which degrades a component of the pathogen so that its pathogenicity is abrogated. The binding agent and the catalytic moiety are linked by chemical linkers or genetic engineering techniques.

Abstract: Structure de raccordement pour conduite souple en résine, constituée d'une conduite souple en résine (10) composée d'un élément de conduite souple élaboré par extrusion-soufflage (12), dont une extrémité est réalisée à partir d'une résine thermoplastique dure, et d'un élément de jonction (14) moulé en une seule et même pièce avec l'extrémité d'élément de conduite (12) dans une résine thermoplastique molle et présentant une surface de contact circonférentielle interne (22) coaxiale à l'élément de conduite (12), et à un élément tubulaire d'accouplement (24) réalisé dans un matériau plus dure que la résine thermoplastique molle sus-mentionnée et présentant à sa partie intérieure une paroi de contact annulaire dont le diamètre extérieur peut être réduit et, dans sa partie en arrière de cette paroi de contact annulaire, une surface de contact circonférentielle externe s'engageant contre la surface de contact circonférentielle interne de la conduite souple en résine (10), la paroi de contact annulaire de l'élément tubulaire d'accouplement (24) venant au contact de la partie terminale de l'élément de conduite en résine (12), la surface de contact circonférentielle externe se plaquant contre la surface de contact circonférentielle interne (22) de manière à réaliser un raccordement fixe entre la conduite souple en résine (10) et l'élément tubulaire d'accouplement (24). Ce système autorise une augmentation du degré d'intégration de l'élément tubulaire (24) par rapport à l'élément de conduite souple (12), et l'élément d'étanchéité (14) est ainsi moins enclin à susciter les problèmes se posant avec le contact d'un liquide s'écoulant le long de la surface interne de cet élément d'étanchéité.

Abstract: A wrist-watch (11) which is completely troublefree for the user is produced by combining a radio clock (26, 27) with, for example, a long wave antenna (35) which is integrated into the bracelet (strap) (36) and serves to receive the absolute time information sent in code form, in combination with an electrophysical or electrochemical memory (store) (16) which is recharged from at least one solar cell (38). Since this wrist-watch (11) runs eternally and with regard to its pointer position is compared cyclically, for possible automatic display corrections, with the absolute time information received via radio, this wrist-watch (11) can be fitted per se with a hermetically encapsulated, completely closed housing (12). However, in order to be able to subject the element most susceptible to malfunction, specifically the memory (16), to a performance check, the housing (12) is provided after all with a through opening, for example in the form of a hermetically resealable threaded bore (54) through which at least one contact point (59) can be accessed by a test prod (probe) in the course of the guidance of the electrical conductor to the memory (16), in order to be able to observe how the stored charge rises as a function of strongly heightened radiation of the solar cell (38). Again, direct rapid electrical charging of the memory can be performed via this access from a charger which is adjusted with regard to the voltage limitation. Finally, overpressure can be pumped into the housing interior (17) through the opening released, in order that the watch glass (50) pressed radially into the housing wall (21) can be pressed out axially and then the sandwich structure in the housing interior can be dismounted for the purpose of servicing. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An internal combustion engine comprises one or more pairs of first and second cylinders (12, 14), the first cylinder (12) having a larger swept volume than the second cylinder (14) and respective first and second pistons (16, 18) reciprocable in the cylinders. The second piston (18) has a drive stem (234) and divides the second cylinder (14) into a first volume (15a) containing the drive stem of the second piston and a second volume (15b) between the two pistons. An air inlet (25) and an exhaust outlet (27) are provided for the first cylinder (12). A common combustion space (20) is formed between the pistons (16, 18) when the pistons are substantially at their inner dead centre positions, the combustion space comprising the second volume. A transfer means (39, 128, 391) enables gas flow between the first volume (15a) and the combustion space (20) towards the end of the compression stroke whilst an inhibiting means (128) inhibits the movement of fuel/air mixture from the first volume into the second volume until towards the end of the compression stroke of the second piston (18). A fuel injector (34) provides fuel to the first volume during the induction stroke of the second piston. The engine also has drive means for driving the second piston (18), the drive means including means for maintaining the second piston (18) substantially at its inner dead centre position during at least a portion of the expansion stroke of the first piston (16). <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention relates to flexible cellulose fibers with a reduced modulus and a decreased NMR degree of order, particularly for use in the textile field, which are obtained by pressing out solutions of the cellulose in hydrous NMMNO through spinning nozzles along an air travel into an NMMNO-containing aqueous and/or alcoholic precipitation bath as well as by a conventional rinsing, aftertreatment and drying, with strengths of between 15 and 50 cN/tex, and to a process for their production. According to the invention, these flexible cellulose fibers have an initial modulus of less than 1,500 cN/tex, and the relationship of the heights of the lines at 88 ppm and 85 ppm above the spectrum base line in the highly resolved 13C-NMR solid-body spectrum is </=1. Furthermore, these flexible cellulose fibers are obtained by means of a process in which specified hydrophilic, low-molecular weight, organic additives, which are soluble in the polymer solution and have mainly nitrogen-containing groupings are added in defined amounts to the spinning solution of the cellulose as well as to the precipitation bath.
