Abstract: PCT No. PCT/US98/02634 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 9, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 9, 1999 PCT Filed Feb. 10, 1998 PCT Pub. No. WO98/34633 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 13, 1998A solid phase peptide synthesis reactor system and method of operating the reactor are provided. The reactor system includes a basket rotatable about an axis within a housing and a receiver which delivers fluid to, and collects fluid from, the housing. The basket has a perforate side wall against which a resin cake for the peptide synthesis is formed. The reactor and receiver form a loop or circuit through which solutions are circulated. The circulation of the solutions prevents the reactor from flooding so that the basket will not be submerged in solution and allows for the use of less liquid. Thus greater amino acid concentrations may be used. The method includes forming a resin cake of uniform depth on the wall of the spinning basket and spraying the solutions against the resin cake while spinning the basket. The solutions will pass through the resin cake and drain to the receiver to be circulated or recycled through the system or discharged from the system. Before a subsequent solution is introduced into the reactor system, the prior solution is purged from the system to help control exposure time of the peptide to the solutions.

Abstract: A circuit and method uses CRC to check errors detected and corrected by an ECC unit (120) when reading data from a disk (116) in a disk drive (110). A CRC unit (118) monitors both the sector bytes read from the disk platter (114) and the error corrections made by the ECC unit (120) to the data and CRC bytes. The CRC unit (118) uses this information to determine whether the ECC-corrected data bytes stored in a buffer unit (122) were properly corrected. The CRC unit (118) reads data bytes and CRC bytes from the disk (116) simultaneously with the ECC unit (120). The CRC unit (118) begins generating a residue to detect errors in the data at approximately the same time the ECC unit (120) begins generating a residue to detect errors in the sector. The CRC unit (118) does not wait for the ECC unit (120) to finish and transfer the ECC error corrections into a buffer. The CRC error check is completed before any data is transferred to the host computer (112). In particular, the CRC unit (118) approves the data before the disk drive controller (126) sends the data to the host (112).

Abstract: The battery powered or 120 VAC powered environmental condition detector of the present invention is designed to provide an early warning of the presence of an environmental condition (smoke or carbon monoxide gas or natural gas or propane gas or any multiple combination of these offending agents) to persons in remote areas of a building. The detector sensing the environmental condition emits an audible tonal pattern alarm, while transmitting a radio signal directly to other environmental condition detectors to activate their alarms and to activate an electronically stored human voice recording (or synthesized voice) that indicates the location of the environmental condition detector sensing the environmental condition, or the type of environmental condition, or both. Rechargeable light modules separate from the detector are included that receive the signal from the detector sensing the environmental condition and illuminate areas and paths of egress for the duration of the alarm condition or in case of 120 VAC power failure. All components of the system are easy to install due to the modular design and conventional power sources. An intermittent activation of the electronic circuitry in the detector unit may be used to conserve battery energy in the battery powered embodiment.
