Abstract: Reduction of time for determining a memory refresh frequency for a dynamic random access memory includes disabling the bootstrap circuitry associated with a word line when writing data into a memory cell during a test operation. When data representing a high logic level is written into the memory cell, the resulting charge that is stored is less than the stored charge under normal operation of the dynamic memory. Consequently, the decay time for the stored charge is shortened, thereby shortening the time for testing the refresh frequency of the memory cell. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Sample traps or wipes (22,24) are provided for a detection system for detecting contraband materials. The sample trap (22, 24) is formed from an open weave glass fabric coated with a thin layer of Teflon and roughened to cut through the surface of Teflon and to break some of the glass fibers. Alternatively, the sample trap is non-woven felt fabric made of high temperature polyamide fiber. The sample traps are used in a detector, such as an ion trap mobility spectrometer. The detector Includes a desorbe (30) which feeds dry air from a manifold above and below the sample trap through a series of holes along the mouth of the desorber. The dry air passes through the trap and purges out unwonted atmospheric constituents that could otherwise affect the performance of the detector. The purged air passes to the outside atmosphere, thus creating a dry curtain at the entry to the desorber.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for enhancing the development of APC from precursor cells by administering a combination of GM-CSF and IL-4. The precursor cells include: cells contained in peripheral blood, CD14<+> cells and precursors in bone marrow. Thus, administration of GM-CSF  and IL-4 can be used as a form of cytokine immunotherapy. One embodiment of the present invention involves systemic administration of GM-CSF and IL-4. In this embodiment, APC are required to directly access tumor antigens as they exist in vivo within the patient. A further embodiment of the present invention involves co-administration of a tumor-associated or tumor-specific antigen, with GM-CSF and IL-4, to induce antigen-specific immunity mediated by APC. Yet another embodiment of the present invention describes systemic administration of GM-CSF and IL-4 to achieve reduced tumor burden.

Abstract: An optical element has a coating thereon to reflect energy, such as light, of a first polarization into a first focus zone and to allow energy, such as light, of a second polarization orthogonal to the first polarization, to reach a second optical element. The second optical element, which may be reflective, diffractive, holographic, aspherical or have other optical characteristics, acts upon the energy to focus it into a second focus zone. A polarization changing element can be placed between the energy source and the optical element or the polarization can be changed by rotating the energy source. The ability to position energy into different focus zones allows for high speed processing and for the generation of useful beam patterns, such as aiming beams.
