Abstract: A process of manufacture and an article produced by the process in the form of a lead glass substrate. The substrate is discretely marked during the manufacturing process by directing a flame upon it that is deficient in oxygen to provide a darkened or black marking in the glass surface. The invention is especially useful for marking electric lamps.

Abstract: A process for the separation from other cellular materials of heat agglomeration resistant water soluble nitrogen containing organic compounds such as plasmids, RNA's, mitochondrial DNA's, viral DNA's, chloroplast DNA's, other episomal DNA's and certain proteins. The process comprises heating cellular materials in a solution of lysing agent to lyse the desired cells and to agglomerate water soluble nitrogen containing compounds such as certain chromosomal DNA's which are not resistant to agglomeration; centrifuging the resulting product to remove water soluble agglomerated materials; separating the supernatant liquid and precipitating the water soluble agglomeration resistant organic compounds with a water soluble precipitant. The process also includes separating the agglomeration resistant water soluble nitrogen containing compounds from each other by means of exclusion chromotography.

Abstract: The invention provides a sustained release pharmaceutical composition comprising a mixture of micronized indoramin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a water-channelling agent, a wetting agent and a disintegrant, the mixture being in the form of a non-compressed pellet and having an enteric coat or a sustained release coat permeable to gastrointestinal juices. Sustained release capsules are also provided comprising a plurality of the aforementioned pellets.
