Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to security systems for securing an item of merchandise from theft or unauthorized removal. For example, the security system may include a sensor configured to be coupled to the item of merchandise, wherein the sensor includes an electrical connector. The security system also includes a base configured to removably support the sensor thereon, wherein the base includes an electronics module having a connector. The connector of the sensor and the connector of the electronics module are configured to electrically connect with one another when the sensor is supported on the base, and the sensor is configured to detect unauthorized removal of the item of merchandise from the sensor.

Abstract: An improvement to the process for the production of interferon by adding an inducer to lymphoblastoid cells susceptible to being induced to produce interferon is described wherein the cells are treated with an enhancing agent at, or following, induction. In a preferred aspect the cells are also pretreated, before induction, with a stimulator.

Abstract: Interferon is produced by incubating cells, which are susceptible to producing interferon, prior to induction by an inducer, in a medium containing an effective non-toxic amount of a straight chain, saturated carboxylic acid or a salt thereof.
