Abstract:
Substituted pyridines of formula (IA) are produced by reaction of suitably substituted pyridylaldehydes with Grignard or Witting reagents, and the resulting products are appropriately reduced. The pyridines of formula (IA) are suitable as active compounds in pharmaceutical products, particularly in pharmaceutical products for the inhibition of cholesterol ester transfer proteins. 3-Heteroalkyl-aryl-substituted pyridines of formula (IB) are produced from pyridines which are correspondingly protected at the hydroxy group and correspondingly substituted. The compounds of formula (IB) according to the invention are suitable as active compounds in pharmaceutical products, particularly pharmaceutical products for the treatment of hyperlipoproteinemia. Substituted pyridines and benzenes of formula (IC) are produced by procedures disclosed herein, and are useful as active ingredients in pharmaceutical products, particularly pharmaceutical products for inhibition of the glucagon receptor, leading to treatment of glucagon-mediated conditions such as diabetes.
Abstract:
An apparatus (10) for orienting and loading solid compact medicaments, such as solid compact medicaments (A), into a carrier device (C) comprises a feeder (12) having a plurality of elongated first channels (20) through which the solid compact medicaments travel with an acute angle relative to a predetermined orientation of the carrier device (C). An orienting member (32) cooperating with the feeder (12) reorients the solid compact medicaments to the predetermined orientation as they exit the feeder (12). In an alternative embodiment, a pitch changing means (42) in fluid communications with the orienting means (32) provides for final orientation of the solid compact medicaments prior to loading in the carrier device (C).

The peptidase has a measured mass of approximately 165 kD, but is 110 kD in its deglycosylated state. It has a predicted mass of 117,239 Daltons based on the amino acid sequence predicted from the cDNA of the figure (SEQ ID NOs: 15 and 16). It includes peptides having the amino acid sequences Phe-Ala-Ala-Thr-Gln-Phe-Glu-Pro-Leu-Ala-Ala (SEQ ID NO: 1) and Ile-Leu-Gln-Asn-Gln-Ile-Gln-Gln-Gln-Thr-Arg-Thr-Asp-Glu-Gly-Xaa-Pro-Xaa-Met (SEQ ID NO: 2), and binds with antibodies produced against the peptide identified as (SEQ ID NO: 1).

Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for the production of polyurea encapsulated fertilizer particles. These are produced by applying an isocyanate-reactive component which contains at least two amine groups to fertilizer particles to form amine coated particles, and applying a polyisocyanate component to the amine coated particles to form polyurea coated particles. Theses steps may optionally be repeated in successive order. The resultant polyurea encapsulated fertilizer particles contain from about 0.5 to 15 % by weight of polyurea, based on the total weight of the encapsulated fertilizer particles. Instead of using an amine group containing isocyanate-reactive component, water can be applied first.

Abstract:
A process for removing a pH-basic material from a polyether polyol polymerizate in which a polymerizate containing polyether and an alkaline material is combined with water and, if the difference between the specific gravity of the poymerizate and water is less than 0.1, an inorganic salt at a temperature and under conditions such that an emulsion forms. No organic solvent is required. The emulsion is heated to a temperature of from about 90 to about 150 DEG C. The heated emulsion is then passed through a coalescing medium at a rate such that the residence time is sufficient to separate the emulsion into an aqueous phase containing the pH-basic material and an organic phase containing a polyether polyol which is substantially free of pH-basic material.
