摘要:
An interspinous process spacer for implantation in an interspinous space between a superior spinous process and an inferior spinous process includes a balloon-like body, a first deployable protrusion and a second deployable protrusion. The body has a distal end, a proximal end and a longitudinal axis extending between the proximal and distal ends. The spacer is arrangeable in an unexpanded configuration and an expanded configuration. The first deployable protrusion is mounted proximate the proximal end and the second deployable protrusion is mounted proximate the distal end. The first and second deployable protrusions are oriented generally parallel to the longitudinal axis in the unexpanded configuration and generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis in the expanded configuration.

摘要:
The present invention deals with the proteolytic enzyme thermolysin which tends to be unstable in aqueous solution. The invention provides methods and compositions to enhance the stability of dissolved thermolysin in aqueous solution. Thermolysin, crude thermolysin or a lyophilizate containing thermolysin and one or more salts, is contacted with an aqueous buffer with a low salt concentration and a first solution is formed. Subsequently, a further salt in solid form is added and dissociated, thereby forming a second solution comprising thermolysin in a stabilized form.

Iron- and copper-containing heterogeneous catalyst, and a process for producing it, including the following steps: thermal decomposition of gaseous iron pentacarbonyl to give carbonyl iron powder having spherical primary particles; treatment of carbonyl iron powder with hydrogen, resulting in the metallic spherical primary particles at least partly agglomerating; surface oxidation of the iron particles to form iron oxide; contacting the particles with an aqueous solution of a copper compound; drying in the presence of oxygen and subsequent calcination in the absence of oxygen, resulting in oxygen-comprising copper compounds on the particles; and finally reaction of these with the iron oxide to form a mixed oxide of the formula CuxFe3-xO4, where 0

Data traffic is routed from a customer edge (CE) router to an Ethernet services router via a generic routing encapsulation (GRE) tunnel. Upon routing the data traffic from the CE router to the Ethernet services router, the data traffic is routed from the Ethernet services router to an aggregation switch. Upon routing the data traffic from the Ethernet services router to the aggregation switch, the data traffic is routed from the aggregation switch to a service switch through a security module, the security module configured to filter the data traffic. The filtered data traffic is routed from the service switch to the Ethernet services router. Upon routing the filtered data traffic from the service switch to the Ethernet services router, the filtered data traffic is routed from the Ethernet services router to a provider edge (PE) router.

A system and method are disclosed for reliable communications in a packet network. A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a network management system (NMS) having a controller programmed to establish between first and second customer edge (CE) routers in a full mesh packet network first and second logical data tunnels conforming to an isolation protocol, synchronize packet data in the first and second logical data tunnels, enable packet data exchanges between the first and second CE routers over the first logical data tunnel, direct the first and second CE routers to duplicate the packet data exchanged between them over the second logical data tunnel, and direct the first and second CE routers to synchronously switch to the second logical data tunnel upon detecting a fault in the first logical data tunnel.
