Abstract: A bone fastener including an expandable member having an axial channel and an elongated element insertable into the axial channel is described. The expandable member is configured to be insertible into a bore drilled in bone. The distal end of the expandable member also may include a structure for axially releasing the expandable member from an emplacement device that places the expandable member into a bone opening. In one embodiment, the structure for axially releasing includes a frangible membrane capable of being severed from the expandable member during emplacement of the expandable member in a bone opening. A rivet for coupling an object to bone for use with an expandable member is also described. The distal end of the elongated element is shaped into a radially projecting portion adapted for engagement with a washer that contacts the object to be coupled. The washer, having upper and lower surfaces and a bore defined between the surfaces, is disposed around a portion of the shaft. The elongated element is adapted for movement independent of the washer since the radial projection of the element has a different radius of curvature than the washer. An apparatus for use within an endoscope is described. The apparatus includes an elongated, substantially hollow holding means for emplacing a bone fastener of the invention in a bone opening. The expandable member includes a structure for axially releasing the expandable member from the holding means. A method of attaching soft tissue to bone is also described. The invention also includes a surgical fastener kit.

Abstract: An improved method for determining the presence of an analyte in an oral fluid sample. A portion of the sample is mixed or contacted with a chromogenic substrate effective to produce a colored product upon reaction with  alpha -amylase present in the sample. After a selected reaction time, the reaction mixture is inspected to determine the level of such colored product produced. Production of a level of colored product above a selected threshold within the reaction time indicates that an effective volume of undiluted oral fluid sample has been collected which is sufficient to allow detection of the analyte. A device for use in the method is also disclosed.

Abstract: The feed device controls the running direction of an extruded web of plastics in an extrusion plant. It includes two pulling-out rolls (5) with a roll clearance (7) between them, and setting members (11) acting separately on the roll bearings (6) on either side.

Abstract: A two-dimensional sensor (1) is described including a substrate having a Si layer, a SiO2 layer and a Si3N4 layer. On the surface of the Si back side, a thin film is formed by vapor deposition for making an effect electrode. On the surface of the Si3N4 front side, a fence is attached for containing a sample cell (2), culture medium and a reference electrode. This sensor (1) is placed in an incubator (3) and a bias voltage is applied between the effect and reference electrodes. When a high frequency modulated laser beam irradiates a spot of the back side of the sensor substrate, a signal of AC photocurrent is obtained from the effect electrode. This signal corresponds to a potential alteration due to the cell activity substantially at the spot. The signal is processed in a computer (10). Therefore, the beam spot size and location, corresponding to the size and the location of the measurement electrode, can be adjusted easily by focusing or moving the laser beam. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to a receiver for high-speed numerical transmissions through Rayleigh channels noisy and dispersive in time and frequency in which an accurate estimate of the channel response is combined in an optimal manner with the received data sequence detection procedure. Specifically the a posteriori probability of the Markov chain of the states of the channel with intersymbolic interference are calculated recursively from the data received and from the updated channel estimate. The a posteriori probabilities calculated are used in turn by a Kalman estimator to record the channel variations. On the basis of the sequence of the calculated a posteriori probabilities the detection is then calculated symbol by symbol with the highest a posteriori probability having a small decision delay. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing an interactive menu structure within an interactive information distribution system. The menu structure is embodied in a combination of software, which provides a so-called navigator and a set top terminal that provides certain functionality for the navigator and a video session manager which provides support functionality for the set top terminal. The menu structure has each menu (e.g., menu instructions, graphics and video) contained in downloadable applets which are sent upon request from the service provider equipment to the set top terminal for display. As such, the navigator functions are actually distributed between the service provider equipment and the subscriber's equipment. Such distribution provides an enjoyable, real-time interactive session that allows the user to rapidly navigate through a plethora of menus to find particular information, which they desire to view.
