Abstract: The invention concerns the use of two lactobacteria for the preparation of immunomodulating compositions, in particular for the treatment and/or prevention of allergies and immunodeficiencies, and specifically use of the following two strains Lactobacillus salivarlus I 1794 and Lactobacillus paracasei I 1688, alone or in combination, in the treatments indicated above.

Abstract: A method for the treatment of lactobacilli cultures is disclosed, characterized in that said cultures are added with an aliquot of culture supernatant of pathogenic microorganisms, or with the same pathogenic microorganisms optionally suitably inactivated. In particular, Lactobacillus gasseri BCCM LMG P-18137, Lactobacillus gasseri BCCM LMG P-17632 and Lactobacillus crispatus BCCM LMG P-17631.

Abstract: Generic goods-containing crate that can be stacked during use and can be partially interlocked to form a pack during storage, which has the particularity that it comprises a central tray-like body which has a bottom that is delimited, along its perimeter, by inner side walls which are tilted outwards from the bottom towards the upper edge. At least portions of outer side walls extend from the upper edge, surround the inner side walls, and are inclined outwards from the upper edge towards the free edge. Stacking and reinforcement blocks are furthermore provided which can be arranged in an active position, in which they join the lower ends of the inner side walls and of the at least portions of outer side walls, and in a packing position, in which they arrange themselves below the bottom. The crate is configured so that it has the same overall dimensions both during use and when the crates are packed together.

Abstract: A profile recording device comprises a network of photosensitive image points. It is adapted to a reading in parallel of all the lines of image points and integrates means for processing (threshold comparators and memorization cells) the electric signals delivered in order to extract the observed profile therefrom.

Abstract: An alkali salt composition free from hydroxides, melting at a temperature in the region of or greater than 180.degree., and usable in its molten state as a negative electrolyte for accumulators comprising an alkali metal negative electrode and an alkali alumina separator, contains an alkali metal amide, at least one alkali halide and an alkali hydride. It may also contain aluminium amide.
