Patent EP-1141417-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HAFNER GREGORY JOHN
IPC: C12Q1/682
Filed: 1999-12-14
Abstract: A method for amplifying a circular nucleic acid probe produced following interaction of a nucleic acid probe with a target sequence whereby the circular nucleic acid probe is enriched prior to amplification. Enrichment reduces the level of background amplification by removing any linear nucleic acid probes, and may be enzymatic or non-enzymatic. Amplification may be by rolling circle amplification. The probe may be a padlock probe. The terminal sequences of the probe may form non-contiguous duplexes with the probe circularised through ligation of a capture ligand or spacer nucleic acid molecule between the two terminal sequences. The capture ligand or spacer nucleic acid molecule may be labelled, such as with biotin. The method is used in applications involving the detection of specific nucleic acid sequences.

Title: Monitoring and controlling hydrophobic components in a pulp process
Inventor: BJERKETVEDT TRAVIS
IPC: G01N33/34
Filed: 2019-05-27
Abstract: A sample of an aqueous stream is conducted to an optical measurement device. A hydrophobic dye is added. The sample is fractionated into fractions according to particle size or mass. The fluorescence intensity values and light scattering intensity values for the fractions are measured. The fluorescence intensity values of the fractions are added together thus obtaining a sum of the fluorescence intensity values. The light scattering intensity values of the fractions are added together, thus obtaining a sum of the light scattering intensity values. A hydrophobicity density of the particles in the sample, is calculated by dividing the sum of the fluorescence intensity values with the sum of the light scattering intensity values, and the concentration of hydrophobic contaminants in the aqueous stream is monitored and controlled based on the calculated hydrophobicity density of the particles in the sample.

Patent HK-1028696-A1 (HK)
Title: Method and apparatus for a copy-once watermark for video recording
Inventor: RYAN JOHN O
IPC: H04N5/91
Filed: 2000-12-14
Abstract: Method and apparatus for "copy-once" of a digital video signal uses a watermark in the video signal. The embedded watermark has two versions: one indicates copy-never and a second indicates copy-once, the difference being a single watermark bit. The watermark carries additional bits representing a digitized attribute (image characteristic) of a particular video frame of the video signal, for instance an average value of the amplitude of a video field. The frame whose attribute is carried in the watermark has a field (or frame) marker, which is a special signal located in the overscan portion of the frame. A compliant video recorder verifies the watermark and the copy-once bit, extracts the associated attribute from the watermark, and compares it to the measured attribute of the marked video frame. Only if the extracted attribute value and the measured attribute value match is recording enabled. During the recording process, the frame markers are stripped, preventing second generation copies of the recorded video signal, and the copy-once bit is set to copy-never.
Patent HK-1038595-A1 (HK)
Title: P53-regulated genes.
Inventor: LEVINE ARNOLD J
IPC: C12Q1/6886
Filed: 2001-06-11
Abstract: Many genes are identified as being p53-regulated which were not heretofore known to be p53-regulated. This includes both genes whose expression is induced and genes whose expression is repressed by the expression of wild-type p53. Monitoring expression of these genes is used to provide indications of p53 status in a cell. Such monitoring can also be used to screen for useful anti cancer therapeutics, as well as for substances which are carcinogenic. Defects in p53 can be bypassed by supplying p53 induced genes to cells. Defects in p53 can also be bypassed by supplying antisense constructs to p53-repressed genes.

Abstract: A system and method for increasing feeder link capacity in a satellite communication system (100), wherein a gateway (108) communicates with a satellite (102) over a feeder link (112), and wherein the satellite (102) communicates with terrestrial user terminals (106) over a user link (110). A feeder link signal (112) is produced by multiplexing a first BPSK signal and a second BPSK signal (402). The feeder link signal (612) is QPSK modulated, QPSK spread (402). The feeder link signal (612) is transmitted from the gateway (108) to the satellite (102). The satellite (102) demultiplexes the feeder link signal (612), recovering the first and second BPSK signals (702, 704, 706). The first and second BPSK signals are then modulated (502-508)(602-608), to produce a first and second user link signal (832, 834). The user link signals (832, 834) are BPSK modulated, QPSK spread. The user link signals (832,834) are transmitted from the satellite (102) to the user terminals (106).

Patent HK-1003343-A1 (HK)
Title: Optical analytical instrument and method
Inventor: SAVEGH EMILE
IPC: G01N21/53
Filed: 1998-03-17
Abstract: Optical analytical instruments to determine a physical parameter of a fluid, and methods of operation of such instruments, are shown. These employ a source of suitable optical radiation, a detector means, means defining a zone for the fluid, means defining an optical path from the radiation source through the fluid zone to the detector means, and reading and control circuitry. At least two readings of optical energy that has been influenced by the fluid are taken without there having occurred substantial change to the fluid. During one of the readings a filter of known absorbance is included in the optical path so that the respective reading represents a calibration reading. A calibration-value-determining means is constructed first to compare, effectively, the two readings to remove the effect of the fluid from the value of the calibration reading, second, to compare, effectively the residual value of the calibration reading to a known value based on the known absorbance of the filter, and, third, on the basis of the second comparison, to make a calibration adjustment based on values derived while the fluid sample remained unchanged in the fluid zone. Novel software implementations of the determinations are shown. Specific examples of instruments and methods implementing these features shown are a dual lamp, no-moving part in-line spectrophotometer, a no-moving part reflection colorimeter capable of on-line or off-line operation, a scatter or fluorescence detecting implementation and a turbidimeter.

Abstract: A PLL circuit 31 of a pulse convert/output circuit 12 in an NC board A 1 receives a fundamental clock signal CLK through a PC extension bus 207 from a fundamental clock generating circuit 201, and generates a sync pulse signal PLS on the basis of the received fundamental clock signal CLK. The sync pulse signal PLS is inputted to a gate 34. A signal select circuit 33 receives an address signal AD, or a RESET signal or an IRQ signal through the PC extension bus 207, and generates a pulse-outputting permission signal N3 on the basis of the received signal. The pulse-outputting permission signal N3 controls a gate 34 which determines the timing of starting the outputting of the sync pulse signal PLS. Consequently, a sync signal PLSOUT that is synchronized with those in the remaining NC boards is generated.
