Abstract: A form, fill and seal machine includes a support frame having an L-shaped track with first and second track portions. A sealing jaw assembly includes first and second guides moveable along the track from a first position, wherein the first and second guides are positioned in the first track portion, to a second position, wherein the first and second guides are positioned in the second track portion. The sealing jaw assembly is rotated 90 degrees as the first and second guides are moved from the first position to the second position. A method of converting a form, fill and seal machine from a first configuration to a second configuration is also provided.

Abstract: Withajardins A-D are new class of withanolides isolated from the leaves of Deprea orinocensis and characterized by having a bicyclic C-17.beta. system and hydroxyl group at C-14 and C-17. The bicyclic system consists of a lactone and a homocyclic ring with six carbon atoms unlike the acnistins which have a five-membered homocyclic ring. The two classes of compounds were differentiated and their structures were identified by a series of HMQC, HMBC and finally X-ray diffraction experiments. Withajardins and acnistins would seem to evolve along quite dissimilar biosynthetic pathways although both types of compound show a marked immunosupressive effect on in vitro cultures of human lymphocytes.
