Interferons are substances that occur naturally in the body and that are secreted by certain cells in response to infection. Interferon alfa-2a, also known as Roferon-A, and interferon alfa-2b, also known as Intron A, are manmade interferons manufactured by recombinant DNA technology. These interferons belong to the class of drugs called biological response modifiers. This class of medicines stimulates the body's response to infection and disease. They also belong to the class of drugs called antineoplastics. Antineoplastics slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. 2, record 6, English, - interferon%20alpha%2D2a

On regroupe sous le vocable de ballons plafonnants les ballons basse altitude qui évoluent dans la couche limite planétaire. Ce sont des ballons pressurisés dont l'enveloppe est inextensible et étanche. Un ballon pressurisé est un ballon fermé, et gonflé de telle manière qu'à son niveau de plafonnement il existe une surpression entre le gaz qu'il contient et l'air ambiant, et ceci quelles que soient les conditions thermiques radiatives environnantes. Il est inextensible car la membrane constituant l'enveloppe est choisie parmi des matériaux plastiques ayant une faible déformabilité et une faible perméabilité au gaz de gonflage afin de réduire les pertes de gaz par diffusion. Sa membrane est, pour des raisons de poids, généralement très mince. Le ballon va donc garder un volume sensiblement constant, aussi longtemps que la surpression sera suffisante pour compenser les pertes de gaz par diffusion et les variations de pression du gaz dues aux effets thermiques. 3, record 7, French, - ballon%20%C3%A0%20volume%20constant
