Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour la détection de signal de synchronisation horizontale (sync) adaptative, afin de déterminer si un signal de haute qualité est bien reçu par un poste de télévision. Ce procédé établit si aucun signal n'est appliqué, si un signal faible est appliqué ou encore si un signal fort est appliqué au poste de télévision, en échantillonnant et en traitant le signal de synchronisation horizontale. Les signaux sont classés par comparaison entre les différents signaux de synchronisation horizontale échantillonnés à un seuil prédéterminé. Ce seuil est déterminé à partir du type de source qui a produit le signal télévisuel.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de préparation d'un pigment organique à partir d'amidon, ainsi que le pigment ainsi obtenu. Le procédé de cette invention consiste à gonfler des grains d'amidon, d'où une augmentation de leur volume et de leur plasticité. La stabilité de ces grains vis-à-vis des changements de volume et de forme est améliorée par réticulation, par dérivatisation ou par hydrophobisation de surface. Des bulles de gaz ou des cavités sont ensuite formées à l'intérieur de ces grains, lesdites bulles ou cavités produisant une importante diffusion de lumière. Ces bulles ou cavités peut être formées par évaporation d'eau ou d'un autre liquide, par libération de gaz imprégné, par une réaction génératrice de gaz ou par déplacement d'eau absorbée au moyen d'un solvant. Ce produit peut être utilisé comme pigment blanc, notamment dans un revêtement d'amidon, dans des peintures et dans des produits cosmétiques.

Abstract: Pre-treatment with  alpha , beta  unsaturated aryl sulfones protects normal cells from the cytotoxic side effects of two classes of anticancer chemotherapeutics. Administration of a cytoprotective sulfone compound to a patient prior to anticancer chemotherapy with a mitotic phase cell cycle inhibitor or topoisomerase inhibitor reduces or eliminates the cytotoxic side effects of the anticancer agent on normal cells. The cytoprotective effect of the  alpha , beta  unsaturated aryl sulfone allows the clinician to safely increasing the dosage of the anticancer chemotherapeutic.

Abstract: A discharge gas containing PFC gas including CF 4  and NF 3 
generated from a manufacturing process (10) is adsorbed at an
adsorbing device (18) and then desorbed using nitrogen as a purge
gas. A desorbed gas with CF 4  and NF 3  concentrated can be obtained
in this manner. The desorbed gas is then supplied to a
chromatographic separator (20) for chromatographic separation with
nitrogen as a carrier gas. In this manner, CF 4  and NF 3  within the
PFC gas can be separated. In particular, because the gas is once
concentrated at the adsorbing device (18), chromatographic
separation of the gas constituents can be efficiently performed.
By independently concentrating CF 4  and NF 3  obtained by the
chromatographic separation, high purity gas constituents of the
PFC gas can be obtained, and reused at the manufacturing process
(10).

sample drain (12) for draining said mixture from said sensor
cell, a vapour outlet (13) for exhausting an evaporated component
from said mixture, an apparatus (14) for setting a
temperature of said liquid mixture to a temperature below the
boiling point of said liquid mixture, a heating element (15)
for elevating the temperature of said liquid mixture to a
temperature above the boiling point of said liquid mixture,
and a device for calculating the concentration of said component
based on the temperature of the liquid versus temperature
of the heating element characteristics. The concentration
of the component can be assessed by determining the point
at which the slope of the temperature of the liquid versus
temperature of the heating element characteristics is changed.

IPC: H04B3/44
Filed: 2001-12-19
Abstract: A branching unit for use in submarine systems has first, second and third
power feed terminals that are each connected to a telecommunications cable. The
cables attached to the second and third power feed terminals are coupled to each
other through a bypass relay, making them a main trunk. The cable attached to the
first power feed termination is connected via a directional re-configuration relay to
ground, making it a spur cable. To power the branching unit, current flow is first
established in the main trunk, which causes the bypass relay to shunt the directional
relay, and current flow is then established in the spur cable. To change the original
configuration of the main trunk and spur cable, current is established initially in the
first power feed terminal. The arrangement of relays within the branching unit
ensures that opening and closing of all relay contacts occurs when no current is
flowing through them, which avoids dangerous arcing at the contacts. The basic
scheme of the branching unit can be improved by one or more additional relays
which protect the contacts of the re-configuration relay from being damaged in case
of electrical transients due to external faults on one of the two branches and allow
the sound branch to be unaffected by the fault.
