Abstract: A method of manufacturing of strengthened glass containers, and more particularly a method of thermally strengthening glass containers in a glass container manufacturing line at a location intermediate the hot end and the cold end. Glass containers formed at an I. S. machine are conveyed through a special tempering Lehr that heats them uniformly to a high temperature that is short of temperatures at which they may become deformed. Subsequently, the glass containers are subjected to a unique rapid thermal strengthening cooling process in which the outer and inner surfaces including all areas of the glass containers are simultaneously cooled to a temperature below the Strain Point of the glass used in the glass containers.

Abstract: A disclosed example method involves when transitioning a processor system to a low-power mode, generating at least a first signature based on a data structure storing memory addresses of memory regions to be protected during the low-power mode. During a resume process of the processor system from the low-power mode, at least a second signature is generated based on the data structure storing the memory addresses of the memory regions to be protected during the low-power mode. When the first signature matches the second signature, the processor system resumes from the low-power mode. When the first signature does not match the second signature, an error is generated.

Abstract: A method for ascertaining the functional patterns of pharmacologically-important compounds by measuring the physiological effect of a plurality of compounds on a plurality of cells comprising the steps of: assaying the plurality of compounds to obtain a first set of data determining the physiological effect of each compound on each cell; assaying at least one known pharmaceutically-important compound to obtain a second set of data determining the physiological effect of the known pharmaceutically-important compound on each cell; and comparing the first and second sets of data to identify a compound having similar physiological effects as the known pharmaceutically-important compound thereby ascertaining its functional patterns.

Abstract: Methods for identifying an ion channel modulator, a target membrane receptor modulator molecule, and other modulatory molecules are disclosed, as well as cells and vectors for use in those methods. A polynucleotide encoding target is provided in a cell under control of an inducible promoter, and candidate modulatory molecules are contacted with the cell after induction of the promoter to ascertain whether a change in a measurable physiological parameter occurs as a result of the candidate modulatory molecule.

Abstract: Methods disclosed herein capitalize on the ability of DNA Structure Specific Recognition Proteins (SSRPs) to bind to genomic lesions formed by chemotherapeutic agents, particularly cisplatin-type agents. Methods are provided for predicting whether an agent that damages DNA will also be cytotoxic, and for predicting whether particular eukaryotic cells will be susceptible to killing by a genotoxic drug. A screening method is provided for identifying new genotoxic drugs that produce SSRP-recognized lesions in DNA. Methods also are provided for sensitizing particular eukaryotic cells to killing by chemotherapeutic agents, particularly cisplatin-type drugs.
