Abstract: A circuit for a pixel site in an imaging array includes a light-detecting element to convert incident light to a photocurrent and a reset transistor, operatively connected to the light-detecting element, to reset a voltage associated with the light-detecting element. The reset transistor hard resets the voltage associated with the light-detecting element and soft resets the voltage associated with the light-detecting element after the generation of the hard reset of the voltage associated with the light-detecting element. A pixel voltage of a column or row line is also measured by hard resetting the column or row line voltage to a first predetermined voltage; soft resetting the column or row line voltage to a first pixel voltage; hard resetting the column or row line voltage to a second predetermined voltage; soft resetting the column or row line voltage to a second pixel voltage; and determining a difference between the first and second pixel voltages, the difference being the measured pixel voltage.

Abstract: Raw meal sludge is dried in a vapor flow dryer by circulating exhaust vapor through a steam circuit which, prior to introduction thereof into the lower part of the dryer, is heated by indirect heat transmission from gaseous flows from a pre-heating system from a gas cyclone of a clinker production line. A partial vapor flow corresponding to water evaporated during raw meal sludge drying is removed from the steam circuit and extracted in the form of a condensate after increasing the vapor temperature by a vapor compressor and the passage of vapor arranged in the dryer over a heating surface of a vapor condenser. The sludge is sprayed into the lower part of the dryer where water is evaporated by the heat of the circulating exhaust vapor and heat from the condenser heating surface. Dried raw meal is separated from the exhaust vapor in a cyclone separator.

Abstract: Using microarray-based profiling of isogenic prostate cancer xenograft models, we found that a modest (2-5 fold) increase in androgen receptor (AR) mRNA was the only expression change consistently associated with developing resistance to anti-androgen therapy. Increased levels of AR confer resistance to anti-androgens by amplifying signal output from low levels of residual ligand and altering the normal response to antagonists. This invention provides cell based assays for use in the examination of new therapeutic modalities and provides insight toward the design of novel anti-androgens.
