Patent EP-0551244-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BAUMANN KURT
IPC: B29C65/08
Filed: 1993-01-05
Abstract: The method is carried out on a banding machine with at least one winding strip forming a tensionable loop and consisting of a plastic-coated or varnish-coated paper web. The loop is severed after the winding strip has been tightened and joined together. During the loop formation, the banding machine guides the plastic layer or varnish layer of a winding strip coated on one side on to its uncoated surface consisting of porous paper. In a winding strip coated on both sides, the plastic layers are guided on one another. The free end is joined to said winding strip by ultrasonic cold welding. The plane working surface (76) of the sonotrode (38) of a banding machine is divided into part regions by at least one recess, and it consists of preferably small grid surfaces (84). The recesses are preferably grooves (78, 80) extending in the longitudinal direction and at an angle ( alpha ) of 30 to 60 degrees to this longitudinal direction. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Replication-competent recombinant viruses, particularly replication-competent recombinant polioviruses, which include (1) exogenous nucleic acid sequences which encode an exogenous polypeptide and (2) a nucleic acid sequence which encodes an artificial proteolytic cleavage site for a viral or cellular protease which proteolytically processes (cleaves) the precursor protein produced by the parent virus and uses therefor. The recombinant precursor is cleaved into the usual array of constituent proteins, freeing the exogenous polypeptide. Replication-competent recombinant viruses are useful as vaccines against bacterial, viral, fungal and yeast infections, parasitic diseases, cancer and allergies.

Date Aug. 19, 1993.To make a contact between a capacitor electrode (13) disposed in a trench (11) and an MOS transistor source/drain region disposed outside the trench, a shallow etching is carried out in a self-aligned manner with respect to a field-oxide region insulating the MOS transistor by producing the trench (11) in a substrate (1). After forming an Si3N4 spacer (10) at the edge (8), laid bare during the etching, of the substrate (1) the part laid bare of the field-oxide region (2) is first removed with the aid of a mask and the trench (11) is completed in a further etching.

Abstract: Procédé et appareil de réduction du bruit et d'augmentation de la plage dynamique d'un ensemble de données d'images à partir d'un réseau (12) de transducteurs (T). Le procédé comprend l'étape de traitement de l'ensemble de données d'images dans un ordinateur numérique (17) par une technique de réduction de bruit telle que la déconvolution de la composante bruit au moyen d'un algorithme de NETTOYAGE ou autre. Ensuite, les données d'images ouvrées introduites par la technique de réduction de bruit sont réduites en masquant l'ensemble de données d'images traitées avec l'ensemble de données d'images originelles. Ce masquage est effectué en multipliant chaque valeur de données dans l'ensemble de données d'images traitées par la valeur de données correspondantes dans l'ensemble de données d'images originelles. Le procédé comprend en outre la mise à l'échelle et la normalisation des données masquées et finalement l'affichage de celles-ci sur un dispositif d'affichage d'images (42). De plus, pour un appareil d'imagerie (10) n'ayant pas de dispositif de corrélation croisé (16), l'aberration de phases est réduite en effectuant une transformation de coordonnées avant la réduction de bruit par l'utilisation d'un ensemble non-standard d'algorithmes de transformation de coordonnées.

Abstract: Medium consistency (e.g. about 5-18%) paper pulp is mixed with a treatment fluid by fluidizing them while subjecting them to a constantly changing shear field in radial and axial planes. This is accomplished by providing a mixer rotor having a constantly varying cross-section along a dimension of elongation. The rotor may comprise a body having an external surface simulating alternately oriented cone frustums along its axis of rotation, with vanes connected to the external surface and including portions following the surface contour. A disk may or may not be provided at the end of the body connected to a shaft. A first interior housing portion has a configuration mimicking that of the rotor, while a second housing portion defines a fluidization zone with the disk.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a stabilized keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) composition in which (i) its intact non-degraded subunit is approximately 400,000 in molecular weight based on SDS-PAGE analysis; and (ii) are contained at least about 50% didecameric or higher KLH multimers, based on sedimentation-equilibrium and/or sedimentation-velocity ultracentrifugation analyses. The KLH composition is stabilized at 4°C by dissolving and storing it in an isotonic buffer preferably containing calcium and magnesium. It is critical that the KLH not have been frozen or lyophilized during its preparation or storage. The KLH composition demonstrates enhanced immunogenic activity, particularly enhanced anti-tumor activity, which is reduced if the KLH is frozen or lyophilized. The KLH composition of the present invention exhibits enhanced anti-tumor activity in a murine bladder tumor model and thereby represents a new and useful anti-tumor immunotherapeutic anti-bladder cancer.
