Abstract:
The present invention particularly relates to novel nitrate esters of paracetamol. The nitrate esters of paracetamol are prepared by reacting the paracetamol with dihaloalkyl compound and followed by reaction with silver nitrate to obtain the corresponding nitrate ester derivatives. The nitrate esters of paracetamol are useful as analgesic, anti-inflammatory agents.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to engineering metabolic pathways in bacterial host cells which results in enhanced carbon flow for the production of ascorbic acid (ASA) intermediates. In particular, the invention relates to increasing the production of ASA intermediates in bacterial cells by enhancing the availability of gluconate resulting from the inactivation of endogenous gluconate transporter genes.
Abstract:
An embodiment of a low-to-high-level voltage translator is proposed. This translator translates the low voltage swing signals for the core into high voltage swing signals of the I/O blocks. This translator may be particularly useful for high-speed application where the difference between the core and the I/O supply voltage is very large, e.g., the core is working at 0.8V and the I/O is working at 3.6V or higher without little or no static power dissipation. The proposed translator may give improved transition times and propagation delays as compared to conventional translators. The proposed translator may also use less hardware in comparison to other such translators.

Abstract:
Extraction methods can interact on a common data source using identifiers that correspond to events or other actions. These identifiers can be updated, whenever appropriate, once the corresponding data has been summarized, in order to provide for multiple extraction methods to operate only on the data of interest, and obtain a lock only on the data within the scope of extraction. High water marks, such as identifiers in the sequent, can be used to further designate which data has previously been extracted. Similarly, summarization methods can interact by utilizing corresponding persistent tables in the flows for the methods, but utilizing separate intermediate tables to allow for data transformations and application of various business rules and tuning techniques. The ability to switch between different methods can accommodate business, performance, or other such needs, and can provide for the dynamic extraction and summarization of different volumes of data.
Abstract:
The present invention provides means for the production of desired end-products of in vitro and/or in vivo bioconversion of biomass-based feed stock substrates, including but not limited to such materials as starch and cellulose. In particularly preferred embodiments, the methods of the present invention do not require gelatinization and/or liquefaction of the substrate.
Abstract:
A high voltage tolerant output buffer uses a substrate voltage control circuit to control the voltage at the substrate of the transistors in the output buffer. The circuitry of output buffer is such that the voltage between any two terminals of any of the transistors is not allowed to exceed the supply voltage of the output buffer. At the same time, the voltage at the source or drain of transistors of output buffer is not allowed to increase beyond its substrate voltage. The proposed circuit for output buffer can tolerate voltages higher than the voltage at which it is operated. The novel circuitry uses less hardware and prevents power dissipation in the circuit.
Abstract:
Described herein is a composition for removing biofilm from surfaces. The composition is an enzyme mixture having at least three enzymes and resulting in the removal of at least 40% biofilm from the surface.
Abstract:
A method for enhancing a host cell's biosynthetic production of 2-KLG is described. Such method comprises selecting a host cell that has an at least partially intracellular synthetic pathway which utilizes 2,5-DKG to produce 2-KLG; increasing the transport of said 2,5-DKG into said host cell while maintaining the integrity of the host cell; culturing the host cell to produce said 2,5-DKG; and producing 2-KLG. The transport of the 2,5-DKG is increased by transforming into the host cell DNA encoding for one or more enzymes transporting the 2,5-DKG into the host cell.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an oral drug delivery system with biphasic release characteristics comprising a porous matrix comprising at least one drug substance, sugar(s), a release retarding polymer, gas generating components and optionally, pharma-ceuti-cally acceptable auxiliary components wherein the pharmaceutical composition further comprises a coating of said drug substance. The pharmaceutical composi-tion, either in the form of pellets (multiparticulate or single unit dosage form), beads, granules, capsules or tablets, is retained in the stomach while selectively delivering the drug(s) at gastrointestinal levels and upper parts of the small intestine over an extended period of time. The release of the drug from the said pharmaceutical composition is characterized by a biphasic release profile of the drug substance, which exhibits both immediate and controlled release characteristics.
