摘要:
The present invention provides compounds of the formula where R1-R5 are each, independently, a hydrogen atom or a normal or branched C1-C6-alkyl group; A is a methionyl, phenylalanyl or phenylglycyl residue; n is 0 or 1; R6 is a hydrogen atom; and R7 is a carbocylic group, an aromatic group, a C1-C4-alkyl group, a pyridylalkyl group or a heterocyclic group. In another embodiment, R6 is benzyl or —C(O)OR8, where R8 is a C1-C6-alkyl group, and R7 is a heteroaromatic group, such as a 2-thiazolyl group.

Optoelectronic devices such as photodetectors, modulators and lasers with improved optical properties are provided with an atomically smooth transition between the buried conductive layer and quantum-well-diode-containing intrinsic region of a p-i-n structure. The buried conductive layer is grown on an underlying substrate utilizing a surfactant-assisted growth technique. The dopant and dopant concentration are selected, as a function of the thickness of the conductive layer to be formed, so that a surface impurity concentration of from 0.1 to 1 monolayer of dopant atoms is provided. The presence of the impurities promotes atomic ordering at the interface between the conductive layer and the intrinsic region, and subsequently results in sharp barriers between the alternating layers comprising the quantum-well-diodes of the intrinsic layer.

This application discloses seven newly synthesized pentapeptide amides andour tetrapeptide amides. The synthesis utilized both naturally occurring and modified amino acids; the modified amino acids are constituents of the well known dolastatin 10 and dolastatin 15 which are structurally distinct peptides with excellent antineoplastic activity. These peptides were constructed by introducing a peptide bond between selected amino acids and modified amino acids and coupling the resulting di- and tri-peptides to obtain peptides having a high anticancer activity against a series of human cancer cell lines. ##STR1##
摘要:
This invention involves an apparatus for terminating conduit, cable, and braided bundle in which the termination is accomplished with an interference fit between a collar and an end fitting. Once assembled, the conduit, cable, or braided bundle is compressed between the collar and the end fitting such that the final assembly can withstand the required level of axial and transverse force for the application, but not so much that the conduit, cable, or braided bundle loses its structural integrity.

Herein disclosed are several pentapeptide methyl ester derivatives of dolatin 10, using both naturally occurring and modified amino acids. The selected modified amino acids are constituents of dolastatin 10 which is a structurally distinct peptide with excellent in vitro and in vivo antineoplastic activity. The structures of these compounds are as shown below: ##STR1##

A fuel-fired heating appliance comprises a fuel source, an air source, a chamber in which fuel and air mix, a burner downstream from the mixing chamber, an igniter proximate the burner, a heat exchanger, a blower and a flue pipe. An ambient air inlet may be defined by at least one of the outlet end of the blower and the flue pipe extending between the interior of the flue pipe and an area ambient to the flue pipe. A flow rate of combustion gas may be controlled to a level below a steady-state flow rate during appliance warm-up.

A device for delivering an occlusive element includes an elongate sheath having a lumen therein. An elongate core member is disposed within the lumen and is formed from a proximal portion and distal portion connected via a joint. The distal portion of the elongate member includes a severable junction secured to the occlusive element. A marker coil is coaxially arranged around the distal portion of the elongate core member and is partially disposed inside the sheath lumen. A coil member is coaxially arranged around the distal portion of the elongate core member and coaxially arranged around at least a portion of the marker coil extending outside the lumen of the sheath. The coil member is secured at a distal end thereof to the distal portion of the elongate core member. The device resists axial compression while allowing for radial bending.
摘要:
A process method utilizing customized, specifically-shaped pieces of reticulated polyurethane foam (RPF) to fill an aircraft fuel tank or tank compartment to provide ignition mitigation and prevent explosion in the tank. The process involves inserting the shaped pieces of RPF through existing access ports into a fuel tank in order to fill the tank, excepting minimal planned void spaces. This process effects ignition mitigation by acting as an ignition blocker, mechanically interfering with the compression wave that precedes the flame front in an explosion, and changing the vaporous mixture above the fuel level (ullage) in the tank. The foam pieces are assembled and fitted together throughout the tank in a pattern that replicates the shape of the tank. After the foam insertion is complete, the fuel tank is filled with purging fluid, drained through a filter until no debris is found, and the new maximum fuel quantity is recalibrated.

A usage allocation of a hardware resource to each of a number of workloads over time is determined using a demand model. The usage allocation of the resource includes a current and past actual usage allocation of the resource, a future projected usage allocation of the resource, and current and past actual usage of the resource. A capacity allocation of the resource is determined using a capacity model. The capacity allocation of the resource includes a current and past capacity and a future projected capacity of the resource. Whether a gap exists between the usage allocation and the capacity allocation is determined using a mapping model. Where the gap exists between the usage allocation of the resource and the capacity allocation of the resource, a user is presented with options determined using the mapping model and selectable by the user to implement a remediation strategy to close the gap.
