Patent JP-4502504-B2 (JP)
IPC: G01N37/00
Filed: 1999-01-14
Granted: 2010-07-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for carrying out mixing in a thin liquid layer, which is arranged between essentially parallel walls at a capillary distance from each other. The mixing is carried out by subjecting the walls to a motion essentially in the plane of the liquid layer, balancing the motion against the capillary force exerted by the walls on the liquid, and selecting the interface between the liquid layer and the surrounding medium so that it functions as an elastic membrane. The invention also concerns a cuvette which is designed for mixing according to the method.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods for determining the presence or absence of a target nucleic acid (e.g. DNA) sequence in a sample nucleic acid, the method comprising: (a) exposing the sample to a detection agent comprising a colloid metal surface associated with a SER(R)S active species (SAS) such as an azo dye and with a target binding species (TBS) which may be PNA which is complementary to the target, and (b) observing the sample agent mixture using SER(R)S to detect any surface enhancement of the label wherein the binding of the TBS to the target sequence causes surface enhancement SAS. The detection agent may be exposed to the sample in step (a) as two or more separate components and will generally comprise a first agent and a second agent each having a different TBS, each TBS being capable of binding to the target sequence, and wherein the binding of the first and second TBS to the target sequence brings a metal surface associated with each TBS into proximity thereby causing surface enhancement of an SAS associated with one or both of the metal surfaces.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicular running control device which detects a distance to an object as much as possible if the object is within a detection zone of an image processing system even if the object is out of a radar detection zone, by totally recognizing the object ahead of a vehicle with greater use of detection result through the radar and the image processing system, and determines whether the detection result is considered as distance information for performing running control for the vehicle, based on certainty degree for the detection result. SOLUTION: In Step 270, an inter-vehicle distance to a preceding vehicle is calculated by three inter-vehicle distance detecting means, using input information from the laser radar 10 and the image processing device; in Step 280, based on the calculated result, each of a detected certainty degree and a total certainty degree are calculated; and in Step 290, when the calculated result of the total certainty degree is not less than a prescribed value, any one of the detection results by the three inter-vehicle distance detecting means is considered as information of the inter-vehicle distance to the preceding vehicle to be used in follow-up control.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for the automated synthesis of phase shifters—circuits used to remove effects of structural dependencies featured by pseudo-random test pattern generators driving parallel scan chains. Using a concept of duality, the method relates the logical states of linear feedback shift registers (LFSRs) and circuits spacing their inputs to each of the output channels. The method generates a phase shifter network balancing the loads of successive stages of LFSRs and satisfying criteria of reduced linear dependency, channel separation and circuit complexity.
