Abstract: A control system is described for metering the fuel in an internal combustion engine. On the basis of the operating state of the internal combustion engine and a mixture correction signal for correcting the deviation of the air/fuel ratio from a desired value, a basic injection quantity signal is generated. A transition compensation signal is also generated while taking into account an adaptive correction factor. The adaptive correction factor is generated by comparing the mixture correction signal with a reference. The transition compensation signal is logically combined with the basic injection quantity signal to form a signal indicative of the quantity of fuel to be injected. In a second exemplary embodiment, the adaptive correction factor is determined by comparing the output signal of an exhaust gas sensor with a reference.

Abstract: A brake controller is connected downstream of a primary vehicle dynamics computer and has a channel for controlling the yaw velocity at a desired value, and a channel for limiting the sideslip angle. The computer prescribes the desired value and the limit value, and determines which channel is effective on the basis of the driving situation. The two channels generate a control signal which is routed via a control amplifier having a proportional component and a differential component. An actuating signal which is used to input braking pressure at the wheel brakes is formed from the resulting signal components, the instantaneous driving situation being assigned in both cases to one of a plurality of classes, and this assignment being co-used to determine the wheels at which braking pressure is input.

Abstract: System for controlling yawing moment in a vehicle equipped with ABS and rear wheel steering includes a controller which generates a compensation steering angle for the rear wheels based on the difference between brake pressures at the front wheels. The difference is filtered so that the angle is zero up to a minimum pressure threshold and thereafter consists of a constant portion added to a variable portion which decreases with time. The compensation steering angle so generated may be modified by a correction factor dependent on the transverse acceleration of the vehicle and a further correction factor dependent on the velocity.

Abstract: Salts of polyhydroxyphenylchromanones, e.g., silymarin or one or more members of the silymarin group, are reacted with a monoaminopolyhydroxy alcohol of the formula ##STR1## wherein X IS AN INTEGER FROM 3 TO 5; ANDR.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen, lower alkyl or hydroxyalkylTo give chemotherapeutic salt compounds which are water soluble while retaining a high degree of medical effectiveness. The salt compounds can be administered to mammals to antagonize or mitigate liver damage and inflammation.

Abstract: A basic aluminum hydroxycarbonate hydrate, usable as an antacid, is prepared by simultaneously adding aqueous solutions of aluminum sulfate and alkali hydrogen carbonate or alkali carbonate to water while maintaining a neutral or weakly alkaline pH and adjusting the pH-value of the reaction mixture, after completed precipitation, to about 6.0 by adding an aluminum salt of a strong acid.
