Abstract: A biosensor apparatus for detecting a binding event between a ligand and receptor. The apparatus includes a biosensor surface and surface-bound two-subunit heterodimer complexes composed of first and second, preferably oppositely charged peptides that together form an alpha-helical coiled-coil heterodimer. The first peptide is attached to the biosensor surface, and the second peptide carries the ligand, accessible for binding by a ligand-binding agent. Binding of anti-ligand binding agent to the surface-bound ligand is detected by a suitable detector. A ligand-specific biosensor surface can be readily prepared from a universal template containing the first charged peptide, by addition of a selected ligand attached to the second peptide.

Abstract: The method involves transmitting a periodic signal from a subscriber unit at an initial predetermined power level. The power level is increased at a predetermined ramp up rate. The periodic signal is detected at a base station when a sufficient power for detection is achieved. A signal from the base station is transmitted which confirms the periodic signal has been detected. The confirmation signal is received at the subscriber unit. The predetermined power level ramp up rate is stopped when the confirmation signal is received. The initial predetermined power level is lower than the power level required for detection by the base station. The power level of the signal is increased at a second predetermined rate which is less than the first rate.

Abstract: Process for regiospecific preparation of new 3-hydroxypyridine-4(1H)-one derivatives starting from monosaccharides or itols of general formula:in which R represents a radical, either saturated or not, branched or not, having carbon-atom groups, and having hetero-atoms or not, and Sub represents a saccharide derivative or an itol, either cyclic not, protected or not, the hydrocarbon skeleton of which is bound to the nitrogen atom of the pyridinone either directly or by the intermediary of a spacing group. The present invention is characterized in that the process comprises a first step of protection of the 3-hydroxy group of the pyranone derivative, a second basocatalyzed step of substitution of the intracyclic oxygen atom of the pyranone by the nitrogen atom of the amine function of the amino monosaccharide or amino itol, and a third step of de-protection of the 3-OH group of the pyridinone cycle and possibly of the OH groups of the glucide or itol residue. It also regards the products obtained by this process, as well as their applications, namely as medicaments for the treatment of toxic overloads of FeIII.

Abstract: Extension guides, each with two or more rails, are situated at each side of the insert, one rail being fixed to the latter and one to the body. A first guide has two rollers (170) solidly coupled by a shaft, and a second guide has a basic portion (130) for each roller and an extending portion (180) sliding between the retracted position and an outer one in which it forms an extension of the basic one. One guide is fixed to the body and the other travels with the insert. The extending portion travels in a straight line in relation to the basic one, and typically along it in the extension direction. It can have a driving face engaged by a dog so as to move with the insert during extension, and which protrudes into the path of the dog, while moving out of this path on reaching the extended position, typically caused by a pivoting movement of the extending portion.

Abstract: An antenna for mounting on a vehicle which restrains damping of a signal voltage by reducing a stray capacitance of a signal path and has an improved antenna characteristic and a short physical length, and an antenna element which is suitable for an antenna for mounting on a vehicle and is flexible by using a helical coil of a large winding diameter are provided. In the antenna for mounting on a vehicle, with respect to a band signal having a short wavelength of a plurality of band signals to be transmitted/received, an antenna element (10) is caused to resonate with a physical length shorter than 1/4 of the wavelength of the band signal. A linear line portion (12) is provided at the proximal end, and the antenna element (10) is provided at a predetermined distance from a vehicle body (14) and a conductive member of the same electric potential as the vehicle body (14). The stray capacitance between the proximal end portion of the antenna element (10) and the vehicle body (14) is small, and a signal voltage is outputted without being damped. The antenna element (10) is formed by burying a helical coil (48) coaxially into a flexible insulating resin pipe (44). The pitch of the helical coil (48) is not shifted even when it is bent repeatedly. Also, no sink mark is generated in the insulating resin pipe (44).
