Abstract: Transceiving unit with heat dissipation capabilities. The transceiving unit comprises a housing adapted to being inserted into a port of a hosting unit, the housing defining a top surface. The transceiving unit comprises a rear connector located on a back panel of the housing. The transceiving unit comprises at least one electronic component located inside the housing. The transceiving unit comprises an insert disposed along the top surface of the housing, the insert passively extracting heat generated by the at least one electronic component located inside the housing. Alternatively or complementarily to the insert, the transceiving unit comprises a heat sink integrated to a front panel of the housing for passively extracting heat generated by the at least one electronic component located inside the housing. In a particular aspect, the transceiving unit is a standardized hot-pluggable transceiving unit, the housing having standardized dimensions.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of at least one compound of the formula (I), in which R and R3 are particularly a hydrogen atom, R1 is particularly a hydrogen atom or a methyl, ethyl or isobutyl mi group, R4, R5, R6 and R7 are independently a hydrogen atony, an alkoxyl group with 1 to 7 carbon atoms or a halogen atom, R2 is a hydrogen atom, an O? group or an OH group, B is an N-GP1 or NRc, group, GP1 being a Boc or Cbz group, and Rc is a hydrogen atom or a methyl or t-butyl group, for preparing a drug for treating conditions associated with bacterial infections, in particular for treating bacterial diseases.

Abstract: The invention relates to the manufacture of vicinal alkanedithiols from the corresponding alkylene trithiocarbonates.The method according to the invention consists in treating alkylene trithiocarbonate with an alkaline sulfide, followed by acidification of the reaction medium.The method is particularly well-suited for the synthesis of ethanedithiol from ethylene trithiocarbonate.

Abstract: The invention relates to the production of organic polysulphides by the action of sulphur on a mercaptan.According to the invention, the process is carried out in the presence of a thioxanthate formed separately or in situ by combination of carbon disulphide with a mercaptide.
