Abstract: A position of a nozzle forming surface 15a of a recording head is varied by an adjusting operation of a platen gap. Accordingly, an amount of interference (L1, L2) of a wiping member (11), which wipes the nozzle forming surface (15a), against the nozzle forming surface (15a), varies. With this, a sliding contact of the wiping member (11) against the nozzle forming surface (15a) varies. When the platen gap is large, the wiping effect decreases. Accordingly, when the platen gap is large, the wiping speed is decreased, and the decrease of the wiping effect is compensated for by increasing the number of wiping operations. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A tone detector (14) able to detect multicomponent tones for various tone formats is disclosed. An input signal is received and frequency and amplitude components, if any, of each sample of the incoming signal are estimated (30, 34). In estimating the components, a current digit value is used to appropriately filter the input signal and estimate frequency and amplitude components. Using the component estimates, a new digit value is determined using a table in storage (100) corresponding to the current tone format. The new digit value corresponds to the symbol whose components are closest in value to the estimated components corresponding to the current digit value. The new digit value is fed back as the current digit value and used in combination with a next sample of the input signal to determine a new digit value. A decision unit (38) is used to process the digit values to determine when a valid symbol is detected. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The nonenzymatic glycation and crosslinking of proteins is a part of the aging process with the glycation endproducts and crosslinking of long-lived proteins increasing with age. This process is increased at elevated concentrations of reducing sugars in the blood and in the intracellular environment such as occurs with diabetes. The structural and functional integrity of the affected molecules become perturbed by these modifications and can result in severe consequences. The compounds of the present invention can be used to inhibit this process of nonenzymatic glycation and therefore to inhibit some of the ill effects caused by diabetes or by aging. The compounds are also useful for preventing premature aging, spoilage of proteins in food and can prevent discoloration of teeth.

Abstract: Specific detection of proteolytic enzymes is achieved by extinguishing dye fluorescence by the amino acid tryptophan. Ttyptophan is disposed on one side of the cutting site of a proteolytic enzyme while an amino acid marked with a dye is arranged on the other side. Extinction of fluorescence occurs prior to enzyme cutting. Spatial separation of the tryptophan and the dye takes place after cutting, whereby fluorescence extinction does not occur. The dye can then fluoresce and a signal increase occurs thereby indicating that cutting has been carried out and the presence of the enzyme.
