Abstract: A card dispensing apparatus is described herein. A product package is provided that contains a consumable or a non-consumable. A debit card or a credit card having a magnetic stripe is removably positioned in the product package, and/or removably coupled to the product package. The card can be coupled to the package using an adhesive or other coupling mechanism.

Abstract: The invention relates to cDNA genetic sequences, vehicles containing same as well as hosts transformed therewith, for the production of chimeric immunoglobulin molecules, functional fragments thereof and immunoglobulin derivatives exhibiting novel functional properties comprising human constant region modules and non-human variable region modules, or for class switching antibody molecules and/or chains.

Abstract: The invention relates to cDNA genetic sequences, vehicles containing same as well as hosts tansformed therewith, for the production of chimeric immunoglobulin molecules, functional fragments thereof and immunoglobulin derivatives exhibiting novel functional properties comprising human constant region modules and non-human variable region modules, or for class switching antibody molecules and/or chains. The invention also relates to DNA coding for pectate lyase signal peptide has been cloned on a plasmid to create a secretion vector which is capable of producing a chosen protein which is transported across the bacterial membrane. The secretion vector has been used to secrete extracellular thaumatin and extracellular chimeric antibody fragments. The proteins produced by this vector have biological activity. The thaumatin is properly folded and the antibody fragments are capable of binding antigens on target cancer cells.

Abstract: The invention is directed to the pectate lyase B secretion signal and its use to express operably linked sequences in bacterial hosts.
