Abstract: In an assay method in which a member of a specific
binding pair is detected by means of an optically detectable
reaction, the improvement wherein the optically
detectable reaction includes the reaction, with an enzyme,
of a dioxetane having the formula
 
where T is a cycloalkyl or polycycloalkyl group bonded to
the 4-membered ring portion of the dioxetane by a spiro
linkage; Y is a fluorescent chromophore; X is hydrogen,
alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, alkaryl, heteroalkyl, heteroaryl,
cycloalkyl, cycloheteroalkyl, or enzyme-cleavable group;
and Z is hydrogen or an enzyme-cleavable group, provided
that at least one of X or Z must be an enzyme-cleavable
group, so that the enzyme cleaves the enzyme-cleavable
group from the dioxetane to form a negatively charged
substituent bonded to the dioxetane, the negatively
charged substituent causing the dioxetane to decompose to
form a luminescent substance that includes group Y of said
dioxetane.

Abstract: Enzymatic cross-linking of protein-encapsulated oil particles
by complex coacervation. A complex coacervate of oil particles, each
encapsulated in a protein shell, is stabilized by gelling the protein shell
and is subsequently enzymatically cross-linked to form thermostable
capsules of about 100-300 microns. The preferred enzyme is
transglutaminase, and the reaction is performed at pH 7 to achieve the
optimal cross-linking rate. The transglutaminase-catalyzed cross-linking
reaction takes place with the complex coacervate maintained at a
temperature in the range of about 5°C-10°C to maintain the structural
stability of the complex coacervate.

Abstract: A larger-diameter fin (503) is provided adjacent to a frame (3b), while
a smaller-diameter fin (501) is provided adjacent to a protecting cover (8). The
larger-diameter fin (503) and the smaller-diameter fin (501) are arranged
parallel to each other in an axial direction with a intervening clearance so that
their rectifying elements (502, 504) are disposed at opposite directions each
other. The larger-diameter fin (503) is offset outward in a radial direction. The
smaller-diameter fin (501) is offset inward in the radial direction. The
protecting cover (8) has a axial opening (801) which introduces external air
directly to the positive rectifying element (502). Furthermore, a radial
ventilation passage (810) is formed between the larger-diameter fin (503) and
the frame (3b) so as to pass the central position of the negative rectifying
element (504). An opening (802), introducing external air directly, is formed
at a radial-outer end of the radial ventilation passage (810).

Abstract: A parallel shear apparatus (10, 110) for sequentially
shearing each of a plurality of streams of molten glass from
a glass feeder into gobs for processing into glass
containers by a glass forming machine. The apparatus has
first and second opposed carriages (12, 14) which are
reciprocable along parallel slides (18, 20) toward and away
from one another, each of the carriages (12, 14) carrying
one or more opposed knife elements (32, 34), corresponding
to the number of streams of molten glass, and the opposed
knife elements overlap at the innermost limits of their
travel to perform the shearing action. Motion of the
carriages (12, 14) is actuated by a unidirectionally acting
servo motor (36), which imparts oscillating motion to a bell
crank (22, 122) through a connecting rod (46, 146). The
oscillating motion of the bell crank (122) imparts
simultaneous, opposedc, rectilinear motion to the carriages
through connecting rods (26, 30), which are pivotally
attached to the servo motor at diametrically spaced apart
locations. The servo motor is mounted on a pivoting bracket
(40, 140) that is urged to its normal operating position by
a pneumatic cylinder (144) and is spring biased (150) away
from its normal operating position in the event of a
stoppage. The pneumatic cylinder (144) is cushioned to
minimize shock loads caused bys a sudden retraction of the
servo motor mounting bracket (140) and is adjustably mounted
relative to fixed structure of the shear apparatus.

Abstract: A clock signal detection circuit includes a diode
to which a clock signal is applied as an input. If a
voltage VD IN on the anode side of the diode is greater
than a voltage VD OUT on the cathode side, the clock
signal is fed into a transmission line and arrives at a
reflecting load upon elapse of a prescribed delay time.
When the voltage VD IN on the anode side of the diode
becomes smaller than the voltage VD OUT on the cathode
side, the clock signal is reflected by the reflecting
load and returns to the cathode of the diode through the
transmission line. This introduction and reflection of
the clock signal is repeated at the clock signal period
so that the amplitude on the output side of the diode is
enlarged, thereby making it possible to obtain, from an
averaging circuit, a clock detection voltage
substantially equal to the amplitude value of the clock
signal.

Abstract: A method for obtaining line synchronization
information items from a video signal is proposed. To
that end, the following improvement measures are
proposed:
   a) an accurate determination of the position of a line
synchronization pulse is effected by carrying out a
convolution operation between the video signal for
the video line and a pattern function. The exact
position is then established by analysis of the
result function (ϕ SV (k)) of the convolution
operation.   B) time-domain filtering of the established positions
of the line synchronization pulses is carried out,
in which a linear or non-linear estimation for the
purpose of determining the corrected positions of
the line synchronization pulses is carried out in
each case.    
     The invention also relates to an apparatus for
carrying out the method.

illegal copy of real data since the encryption key applied to

Abstract: An electronic sampling circuit for determining
redox potentials, and consequently specie
concentration, in a photographic solution, applies a
linear ramp of a square wave voltage to a first
electrode (6) immersed in the solution. The current
drawn by an adjacent electrode (12) is converted to a
voltage for sampling. A pair of sample-and-hold
circuits (40,42) store signals sampled at the peak and
adjacent trough respectively of a square wave pulse,
and a subsequent analogue difference circuit (44)
subtracts the two signals. The resulting signal is
converted to a digital code by a low cost, low bit
count analogue-to-digital converter (46), which is
stored on a microprocessor (48). The sampling process
is repeated for successive square waves along the
ramp. This circuit configuration enables the
difference between analogue signals to be measured
where the signals differ in amplitude by small amounts
but have a wide dynamic range, without the need for an
expensive, high bit count analogue-to-digital
converter.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for stabilizing or otherwise controlling wavelength in
tunable semiconductor lasers and other optical sources. A tunable semiconductor laser
includes a gain section and at least one tuning section. Spontaneous emission (SE)
from the tuning section is detected and used in a feedback control loop to control the
amount of current applied to the tuning section. The SE may be detected using an
integrated detector on the semiconductor laser chip, an external detector arranged
adjacent the chip to detect SE emitted from a side of the tuning section, or an external
detector arranged to detect SE coupled from an optical fiber or other signal line
connected to an optical signal output of the laser. The feedback control loop may
operate to maintain the detected SE at a constant level, such that the current applied to
the tuning section is adjusted to compensate for the effects of aging and the laser
output wavelength is thereby stabilized. The invention may also be implemented using
multiple feedback control loops to control the current supplied to corresponding
multiple tuning sections of a given optical source. Each of the multiple feedback
control loops may operate to maintain the SE detected from a corresponding one of the
tuning sections at a constant level, such that the output wavelength is stabilized.
