Patent EP-1316869-A2 (EP)
Inventor: JACOBS MERRIT N
IPC: B01L99/00
Filed: 2002-11-27
Abstract: A method for improving the fluid dispense rate in a metering system utilizing speed
includes the steps of modifying the fluid flow rate profile during a portion thereof so as
substantially increase or decrease the speed of the motor during certain portions of a metering
cycle in order to improve the efficiency of the metering system. For a variable speed pump
producing a sinusoidal speed profile, the pump motor speed can be increased to increase the
dispense velocity during the beginning and end of the dispense phase to reduce perfusion and
improve metered volume precision or a motor speed profile can be applied which is inverted
relative to that of the variable speed pump to produce a constant velocity flow. Alternately or in
addition to the above, the home position of the variable speed pump can be shifted to produce
fluid velocity during the entirety of a dispense portion of a metering system cycle.

Abstract: A method for reducing sparkle artifacts in a liquid
crystal imager, comprises the steps of: low pass filtering
only a first lower brightness level signal component of a
video signal; and, slew rate limiting only a second lower
brightness level signal component of the video signal having
the low pass filtered signal component, the video signal
having the low pass filtered and the slew rate limited signal
components being less likely to result in sparkle artifacts in
the imager. Brightness thresholds for defining the lower
brightness level signal components and slew rate limits can be
selected in accordance with transitions between lower and
higher level gain portions of a gamma table associated with
the imager, for example an LCOS imager.

Abstract: A digital interface between analogue RF hardware and digital processing hardware which (a) defines how the analogue RF hardware and digital processing hardware send and receive digital data to one another and (b) is open in order to decouple the design of the analogue RF hardware from the design of the digital processing hardware. The adoption of such an interface will facilitate the uptake of software defined radio (SDR), both as a design-time and run-time technology, as it enables the production of analogue/RF components independently from the digital domain hardware and software.

Inventor: YU XIAOYONG
IPC: H04L1/00
Filed: 2002-06-28
Abstract: The present invention achieves the benefits of the improved joint detector previously disclosed with significantly less computation by, first, moving the backward substitution computation outside the detector's decoding iteration loop and, second, by moving the input buffer inside the iteration loop. The backward substitution computation is performed initially as part of a joint detection equalization stage prior to entering the decode iteration loop. Then with each decode iteration, the present invention generates a correction signal that is subtracted from the present input signal to produce the next input signal. Each correction signal is generated from a series of differences between the decoded symbols of the current iteration and those in the previous iteration. Thus, the present invention achieves the same performance improvement over conventional joint detectors as the improved joint detector previously disclosed but with dramatically less computational requirements.

Abstract: The present invention relates to neutralizing anti-HIV-1 antibodies, particularly to mAb 4E10-IgG1, which has an HIV-1 neutralizing potency comparable to the one of mAb 2F5 and 2G12. 4E10-IgG1 binds to a novel conserved epitope (NWFDIT) C-terminal of the ELDKWA epitope recognized by 2F5.1 appears that both epitopes are cryptic epitopes within a region that may be accessible in a virus-cell fusion intermediate state only. 4E10-IgG1 potently neutralizes tissue culture adapted strains but also primary isolates of different clades, including A, B, C, D, and E, inclusing viruses that were found to be resistant to 2F5. None of the tested isolates was resistant to both anti-gp41-antibodies. The invention therefore also relates to peptides containing the 4E10 epitope and to compositions made thereof, as well as to anti-idiotypic antibodies that are reactive with the paratope of 4E10-IgG1, to compositions containing an antiidiotypic antibody optionally in combination with a peptide containing the 4E10 epitope, and to anti-HIV-1 compositions comprising 4E10-IgG1, optionally in combination with another neutralizing antibody such as 2F5 and/or 2G12.

The system can automatically determine whether a particular network state would be reliable. For example, the system may present the user with a selection of reliable network states and the user can select a reliable network state that is meaningful to the user. The selected meaningful state may be stored or may be immediately implemented upon the user selection.

IPC: G01N33/574
Filed: 2003-01-10
Abstract: Methods and articles of manufacture are disclosed for detecting a secreted
mycobacterial antigen directly in a biological sample obtained from a mammalian
subject without substantial replication of mycobacterial cells in the sample. This
method comprises contacting an antibody that specifically binds to the secreted
mycobacterial antigen with the sample, or a fraction thereof, under conditions such
that the antibody specifically binds to secreted mycobacterial antigen in the
sample, thereby forming a specific complex of the antibody with the secreted
mycobacterial antigen. This method further comprises detecting the presence,
absence or amount of specific complex of the antibody with the secreted
mycobacterial antigen in the sample. In this method the presence of this specific
complex indicates the presence of the secreted mycobacterial antigen in the
sample. The invention method is particularly useful for detecting MPB64 antigen
of  M. bovis  or MPT64 antigen of  M. tuberculosis  in biological samples from a
human subject suspected of having tuberculosis, particularly for sputum samples
from such subjects. Prior to contacting the sample with an antibody that
specifically binds to MPB64 antigen or MPT64 antigen, a mucolytic or liquifying
agent, preferably containing a disulfide bond reducing agent, and optionally a
decontaminating agent, is added to the sample. One preferred disulfide bond
reducing agent is N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NALC) and advantageously this agent is
added to the sample to achieve a concentration in the sample that is substantially
greater than 0.25% (w/v), for instance, about 2.5% (w/v).

Abstract: In the preparation of ceramic composites with unidirectionally oriented reinforcing fibers, fiber strands or rovings of the reinforcing fibers are enveloped (sic) by polymer fibers or separated from each other by the polymer fibers, fiber strands/rovings are processed by addition of binder resin to give unidirectional reinforced carbon fibers -shaped bodies, and the bodies are carbonized to give carbon fiber reinforced carbon bodies.  In the preparation of ceramic composites with unidirectionally oriented reinforcing fibers, fiber strands or rovings of the reinforcing fibers are first enveloped (sic) by polymer fibers or are separated from each other by the polymer fibers, the treated fiber strands or rovings are processed by addition of binder resin to give unidirectional reinforced carbon fibers (CFR)-shaped bodies, and the bodies are carbonized to give carbon fiber reinforced carbon (CFRC) bodies. In the carbonization step, the polymer is completely or almost completely decomposed to give a residue of weight up to 10% of the inserted polymer, or is decomposed with formation of a carbon-containing residue comprising 10-60% of the weight of the polymers inserted in the form of fibers, whereby a pore/channel structure is formed , the volume ratio of the polymers to the fiber strands or rovings is 0.05-50 and/or the weight ratio of the polymers to the fiber strands or rovings is 0.1-25, and the CFRC body formed is finally infiltrated with liquid Si so that the liquid Si diffuses into the pores formed in the CFRC body, and at least partially combines with the carbon to form Si carbide.  An Independent claim is also included for a ceramic composite containing unidirectional reinforcing fibers obtained as above.
