Abstract: There is provided a particle-enhanced immunoassay method for cystatin C in a human body fluid, which has higher specificity and is easily automatable at low cost as compared with conventional assay methods that use large amounts of polyclonal antibodies having low specificity or monoclonal antibodies having high specificity but having poor agglutinability.     Disclosed is an assay method specific to cystatin C in a human body fluid, which is a particle-enhanced immunoassay method utilizes a combination of antibody-coated particles in which some insoluble carrier particles are coated with anti-human cystatin C monoclonal antibodies of one type which have high affinity and in which some other insoluble carrier particles are coated with anti-human cystatin C monoclonal antibodies of one type which recognize an epitope different from that of the monoclonal antibody of the first-mentioned type and which have relatively low affinity, wherein the binding amount of the anti-human cystatin C monoclonal antibodies relative to the total weight of the particles being coated with the corresponding antibodies is less than 5% by weight.

Title: Ir detector system and method
Inventor: CHALK CHRIS
IPC: H03M1/12
Filed: 2010-03-05
Abstract: An Infra Red detector system and method is disclosed for a SAR ADC capable of operation at low power such that it may be used on a Focal Plane Array FPA) detector. Conventional approaches to achieve high performance Successive Approximation Register (SAR) Charge Share Analogue to Digital Converters (ADC) require high gain comparators to achieve settling performance and high resolution which consume high power. High power consumption makes such converter approaches unattractive for use on Focal Plane Array (FPA) detectors that have to be cooled to cryogenic temperatures. Many such ADCs are used on a FPA detector (i.e. up to one ADC per column of the imaging array) to digitise image data for the whole array at standard frame rates. Increased power makes cooling difficult to achieve or unattractive at system level. The system disclosed uses an adaptive approach to set the comparator gain and settling time depending on the dynamics of the input signal, thereby achieving required performance whilst reducing overall power
