Abstract: The present invention provides a manufacturing process for the preparation of degarelix by using Fmoc protected amino acids as building blocks, wherein the Fmoc group is cleaved by treatment with tert-butylamine.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for the manufacture of peptidomimetic drug icatibant with high yield and purity by fragment condensation on the solid phase. In particular, it describes a convergent synthesis by condensation of a protected C-terminal fragment bound to a solid support and a protected N-terminal fragment, followed by cleavage from the support and resulting in a crude peptide of high purity, which is further purified to obtain pure icatibant in high yield. The invention further provides intermediates useful in the manufacturing process.

Abstract: An automated module for assembly lines to assemble electronic devices includes a plurality of cells. Each cell includes a support structure, a control unit and at least one actuating system, operatively connected to the control unit for receiving commands and transmitting the results obtained as data to and from the control unit. The automated module includes at least one moving device, for moving at least one electronic device among the module's cells; and a supervision unit. The supervision unit interacts with each control unit of each cell, thus sending commands to control each single cell and receiving respective results from the respective control units as data; and to control the moving device for its activation, to move the electronic devices among the cells. The cells are independent and are assembled in a modular manner in the desired sequence, to perform a desired sequence of operations on the electronic device.

Abstract: A buoyant fishing lure is adapted to be drawn along the surface of water. The lure is in the shape of a rodent or other small creature and has a body coated with fur and a tail composed of a strip of fur. The lure has protruding concave shaped ears. The fur and the ears cause water through which the lure travels to flow outwardly from the body and to cause turbulence in the water.
