Improved DNA vaccine plasmids are disclosed. The improved plasmids eliminate all extraneous sequences, and have superior eukaryotic expression, improved yield and stability during bacterial production, facilitate flexible targeting of antigens to various intracellular destinations, and novel RNA-based functionality. These vectors are utilized in novel immunization methods wherein combinations of immunostimulatory DNA vaccine plasmids that target antigens to various intracellular destinations are used to elicit improved immune response.

A pivotal fold away trailer hitch mount which comprises a mounting plate secured to an underside of a frame of a motor vehicle and adjacent to a bumper of the motor vehicle. A hitch assembly is also provided. A mechanism is for pivotally connecting an inner end of the hitch assembly to a bottom surface of the mounting plate. The hitch assembly will swing from a towing position extending outwardly from the bumper of the motor vehicle to a stowed position extending under the frame of the motor vehicle away from the bumper. A mechanism is for retaining the hitch assembly in the towing position, while another mechanism is for holding the hitch assembly in the stowed position.
摘要:
Techniques are described for emulating inter-processor communications between multiple instruction processors. The techniques provide inter-processor message accounting and error detection. A system, for example, includes software executing within an emulation environment provided by a computing system. The emulation software emulates an instruction processor having an interface to receive inter-processor messages. During emulation the emulated instruction processor calculates an actual count of the inter-processor messages received during emulation. A compiler executing on the computing system compiles test software to output an instruction stream for execution by the emulated instruction processor. The compiler calculates an expected count of inter-processor messages that the emulated instruction processor is expected to receive during emulation. Emulation control software executing on the computing system generates a report that presents the expected count of the inter-processor messages and the actual count of the inter-processor messages.

The present invention includes methods for generating neutralizing antitoxin directed against clostridial toxins. In particular, the antitoxin directed against these toxins is produced in avian species using soluble recombinant clostridial toxin proteins. This avian antitoxin is designed so as to be orally administrable in therapeutic amounts and may be in any form (i.e., as a solid or in aqueous solution). These antitoxins are useful in the treatment of humans and other animals intoxicated with at least one bacterial toxin.

A seating unit, such as a sofa, chair or love seat with a movable seat section includes a main frame arranged for support of a back rest in fixed relation thereto and a seat frame for supporting a seat. Support tracks slidably support the seat frame from the main frame. The seat frame can be moved from a retracted position to an extended position in relation to the main frame. A locking device secures the seat frame in relation to the main frame in a plurality of positions between the retracted position and the extended position.

The present invention includes methods and compositions for treating humans and other animals intoxicated with at least one Clostridial toxin by administration of antitoxin. In particular, the antitoxin directed against these toxins is produced in avian species. This avian antitoxin is designed so as to be orally administerable in therapeutic amounts and may be in any form (i.e., as a solid or in aqueous solution).
摘要:
A net which comprises an expanded area-bonded non-woven fabric, and method of preparation. The net has a mesh perimeter in the range 1/8 to 12 inches, tear strength of from 5 to 20 lb. per inch per lb. per square yard of net. The process comprises forming numerous, discontinuous parallel and overlapping slits, having lengths from 1/16 to 6 inches in area-bonded non-woven fabric, and then stretching the slit fabric in a direction transverse to the slits to form a net, and preferably heat treating the net.
