Title: Insulin-dependent yeast or fungi
Inventor: MCKENZIE MAUREEN A
IPC: C07K14/62
Filed: 1993-10-05
Abstract: The present invention relates to newly created and isolated insulin-dependent mutant strains of yeast or fungi such as S. cerevisiae. The mutants grow on complex media of defined and undefined compositions.

Patent CA-2183054-A1 (CA)
Title: Osteoporosis diagnosing apparatus and method
Inventor: ISHII TETSUYA
IPC: A61B8/08
Filed: 1995-12-14
Abstract: The osteoporosis diagnosing apparatus of the invention radiates repeatedly an ultrasonic impulse Ai toward the bone Mb of an examinee and receives an echo Ae from the bone Mb. The received signal is converted into a digital echo signal through an A/D converter and the echo level is detected by a CPU. The CPU extracts the maximum echo level from among the echo levels detected in a given period of measurement to thereby calculate a bone acoustic impedance Zb based on the extracted maximum echo level and then calculate the bone density of the examinee based on the calculated acoustic impedance Zb. As the impedance Zb is expressed in the square root of the product of modulus of elasticity and density of a bone, decreases in both the modulus of elasticity and the density synergistically affect the impedance to remarkably decrease the same. Thus the bone acoustic impedance Zb serves as a good index in judging the bone density.

Title: Clock recovery for video communication over atm network
Inventor: LAW RANDY A
IPC: H04N19/61
Filed: 1996-08-30
Abstract: A method of clock recovery from a fast packet switched asynchronous network wherein a time stamp is transmitted over a network that has variable delay, involves maintaining an input counter at a sending device. The counter has a value dependent on an input clock. The value of the input counter is periodically transmitted over the network to a receiving device. A local counter at a receiving device has a value dependent on a local clock. The received value sample xi is compared with the local sample yi to derive the difference ei. The local clock frequency fj is adjusted such that the average of Eminj, where Eminj is the minimum of a block of error samples ei, remains close to a predetermined value, preferably zero. The clock recovery method is particularly suitable for MPEG2 video transmitted over ATM..
