Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dosage hautement sensible qui utilise une technique d'amplification amorcée spécifique du gène de bibliothèques d'ARNm issus de cellules rares et de transcrits rares trouvés dans le sang. Ce dosage permet de détecter des ARNm (10 copies /cellule) trouvés dans une à dix cellules isolées via un enrichissement immunomagnétique. Ce dosage constitue une amélioration par rapport à la PCR multiplex et permet de détecter efficacement des séquences de codage rares de cellules de carcinome circulant dans le sang. Ces techniques conviennent pour établir le profil de cellules isolées issues de tissus ou de fluides anatomiques et elles servent d'auxiliaire pour un diagnostic clinique de divers carcinomes, notamment dans la détection au stade précoce et dans la classification des cellules tumorales circulant. La surveillance des profils d'acide nucléique et de protéine de cellules dans des formats soit classiques, soit de jeu  ordonné de microéchantillons, facilite la gestion d'intervention thérapeutique comprenant la classification par stades, la surveillance de la réponse à la thérapie, la confirmation de rémission et la détection de régression.

Abstract: A compound objective lens is composed of a hologram lens
for transmitting a part of incident light without any
diffraction to form a beam of transmitted light and
diffracting a remaining part of the incident light to form a
beam of first-order diffracted light, and an objective lens
for converging the transmitted light to form a first
converging spot on a front surface of a thin type of first
information medium and converging the diffracted light to form
a second converging spot on a front surface of a thick type of
second information medium. Because the hologram lens
selectively functions as a concave lens for the diffracted
light, a curvature of the transmitted light differs from that
of the diffracted light. Therefore, even though the first and
second information mediums have different thicknesses, the
transmitted light incident on a rear surface of the first
information medium is converged on the its front surface, and
the diffracted light incident on a rear surface of the second
information medium is converged on the its front surface..That
is, the compound objective lens has two focal points.

Abstract: A temporary indicated torque is obtained by taking a
conventional dead zone area for a first slip control area,
and the value proportional to the slip quantity for a
maximum value, this temporary indicated torque is corrected
by a correction value according to the tight cornering brake
quantity to be the indicated torque of the transfer clutch,
and occurrence of any tight cornering brake phenomenon is
prevented thereby. In a slip control area after passing a
dead zone area (a second slip control area), the slip
control is smoothly transferred from the first slip control
area to the second slip control area by performing the slip
control with a value of the indicated torque according to
the slip quantity added to the indicated torque in the first
slip control area as the indicated torque, abrupt torque
change is prevented, and the vehicle behavior is stabilized
thereby.

luminance component conforms to a specific condition;
applying a Dyadic Wavelet inverse-transform processing to
transformed and processed signals; and synthesizing processed
luminance signals and the chrominance signals with each other
to generate processed image signals.

The multi-diameter front and end rings have sections with smaller external diameter facing the mixing ring. Both ends of the mixing ring have internal diameters large enough to accommodate the smaller diameter sections of both front and end rings. When the inner ring is in either end position it partly overlaps both front and end ring.  At least one, preferably two, axially parallel channels(4k) run along the inside of the mixing ring(4) and are offset from each other. The shaft has a smooth surface in the section between front(2) and end(3) rings and may have one or more circumferential channels. Screw components are connected to the mixer at both ends.  Independent claims are included for: a) a use of the mixer in a screw processing machine, particularly in conjunction the screw tip; b) a machine with plastic processing screw incorporating the claimed mixer.
