摘要:
The invention concerns a device for automatic surface inspection of an unwinding strip to detect surface defects, comprising at least a camera (10) whereof the optical axis is directed towards the surface to be inspected and forming on said surface a transverse line of sight (L) and at least an illuminating system (15) whereof the incident rays (Ri) are directed towards the transverse tranline of sight and distributed over the entire length of said line. At each point of the transverse line of sight, the observation direction of the camera (10) forms with the specular reflected ray at said point a constant angle.
摘要:
Antibodies to a therapeutic agent and its derivatives and conjugates are disclosed, including antibodies to argatroban and its derivatives and conjugates. The antibodies are useful as reagents in assays and diagnostic kits for determining the concentration of a therapeutic agent or its derivatives and conjugates in biological samples, and further have therapeutic uses in treatment for potential toxicity associated with stable therapeutic conjugates and derivatives, both in vivo and ex vivo.
摘要:
Novel compounds comprising chemically reactive intermediates which can react with available reactive functionalities on blood components to form covalent linkages, where the resulting covalently-bound conjugates are found to have renin inhibition activity are provided. Specifically, the renin inhibitor compounds of the present invention are tripeptide derivatives of a known renin inhibitor which can be covalently linked to chemically reactive functionalities on various blood components. The conjugated renin inhibitors thereby have extended lifetimes in the bloodstream, as compared to the unconjugated parent drug, and are, therefore, capable of maintaining renin inhibitory activity for extended periods of time as compared to the unconjugated parent drug. Also provided herein are methods for inhibiting renin activity in vivo comprising administering to the bloodstream of a mammalian host the novel compounds of the present invention.
