Abstract: The invention concerns a detecting apparatus (12) for imaging at least two areas of a brain of a subject (10), the detecting apparatus (12) comprising: —a holder comprising: —a frame (14) devoted to be cemented on the skull of the subject (10), the frame (14) delimitating an inner portion (18) which is transparent to ultrasound waves, —a removable imaging device comprising: —a platform (16) delimitating an inner space (28), the inner space (28) facing the inner portion (18), —a fixing element (30) adapted to temporary fix and lock the platform (16) to the holder, —an ultrasound probe (32), and —a moving stage (34) holding the ultrasound probe (32) and being adapted to move the ultrasound probe (32) within the inner space (28).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a non-human transgenic mammal whose genome comprises: i) a first transgene comprising a mammary gland specific transcriptional control region operably linked to cDNA encoding a rotavirus protein selected from VP2, VP4, VP6 and VP7 and wherein said cDNA comprises a secretion signal sequence; ii) at least a second transgene comprising a mammary gland specific transcriptional control region operably linked to cDNA encoding another said rotavirus protein and wherein said cDNA comprises a secretion signal sequence; and wherein said rotavirus proteins are secreted separately and auto-assembled in milk in rotavirus like particles (VLP) or aggregates of said rotavirus proteins.

Abstract: A ribbon embroidery applique is formed by stitching silk ribbon through a fabric backing. Stitches appearing on the front side of the backing create a pattern. The stitches and the backing are stabilized by applying a layer of glue to the rear of the backing and to the ribbon on the rear of the backing. The backing is trimmed closely around the pattern formed by the ribbon. The ribbon embroidery applique may be attached to a garment or a household item using reusable glue or other methods.
