Abstract: A trailer towable compact telehandler having an operator cab with an internal width greater than 700 mm and a curbside weight less than 2950 kg. Also included is a telehandler having a side-mounted engine which extends through a side wall of the chassis and under a lifting arm of the telehandler. Also included is a compact tool carrier having a reduced fore-aft dimension between an attachment plane and a principal pivot member.

Abstract: A flight departure control system comprises a central departure control system and a plurality of local departure control systems arranged at or in proximity of individual airports. Passengers check-in for flights via the central DCS and for each passenger a passenger data message is created and sent to the local DCS to which the flight relates. On detection of a fault condition at the central DCS or in communications with the central DCS, the local DCS assume responsibility for flights departing from the airport at which they are located based on the received passenger data messages and unchecked-in passengers check-in directly with the local DCS.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to glycoprotein CD52 and fusion proteins thereof, wherein the CD52 glycoprotein has ?-2,3-sialylated N-glycans, O-glycosylation and a pI of about 5 to about 6. The disclosure further relates to the preparation and purification of these proteins and their use in the suppression of effector T-cell function and/or immune response, such as in the treatment of diseases or conditions mediated by effector T-cell function.

Abstract: A system and method for tracking baggage on cruise liners are provided. A baggage tag is created which includes a unique baggage identifier and a unique passenger identifier that has been allocated by a reservation system. The identifiers are associated and stored in a baggage message. The baggage tag is affixed to an item of baggage and as the passenger checks in the item the tag is scanned and the bag validated and the status of the item in the baggage message is updated. When the passenger boards the ship, they scan a touch point with a mobile communications device which indicates that the item of baggage can now be delivered to their cabin. Shortly before arrival at port, the bags are loaded into a baggage container for unloading at the port and each bag tag is scan and associated with a scanned container identifier. The container is notified to the passenger through a message sent to their mobile communications device.

Abstract: An aluminium alloy for superplastic aluminium flat products having the following composition: Si?0.4 wt. %, Fe?0.4 wt. %, Cu?0.1 wt. %, 0.5 wt. %?Mn?1.0 wt. %, 4.7 wt. %?Mg?5.5 wt. %, 0.05 wt. %?Cr?0.25 wt. %, Zn?0.25 wt. %, Ti?0.20 wt. %, Na?2 ppm, unavoidable impurities individually ?0.05 wt. %, in total ?0.15 wt. %, remainder aluminium. A method for producing an aluminium flat product in which an aluminium melt is provided from the above-mentioned aluminium alloy, in which the aluminium melt is cast to form an ingot, in which the ingot is hot rolled to form a hot strip, in which the hot strip is cold rolled to form a cold strip, and in which the cold strip is levelled. Further disclosed is an aluminium flat product produced by the method and a use thereof.

Abstract: A gas separator, a method for producing the gas separator, and a method for separating gases based on a property of inelasticity of the gases. The inventive gas separator is a permeable porous material for separating a mixture of gases by selectable pore size exclusion, comprising pores formed with at least one nanostructured compound. In other words, the inventive porous material can be used to separate a mixture of gases based upon the different working diameter of each of the gases. By selecting specific nanostructured compounds, the porous material can be tailored to contain pores of a predetermined size which allow gases having a working diameter smaller than the size of the pores to pass through the material while preventing the passage of gases having a working diameter greater than the size of the pores.

Abstract: Malignant gliomas are treated by modifying the eicosanoid biosynthetic pathway with reduction of the inhibitory effect of prostanoids on the cytotoxic activity of NK and LAK cells. Synthetic peptides, corresponding to shared sequences with phospholipase activating protein (PLAP), having the capacity to activate phospholipase A.sub.2 (PLA.sub.2), when administered in a delayed release delivery system, such as with agarose beads induce release of PGE.sub.2, with significant tumor necrosis. A tumor model comprising an air pouch in the dorsum of rats is utilized for effective evaluation of the treatment, with tumor growth, treatment and evaluation of tumors grown therein.
