Patent CA-2173519-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MALIN MICHAEL J
IPC: C12Q1/28
Filed: 1996-04-04
Abstract: The present invention provides an improved reagent composition and method to perform white blood cell differential counting and subpopulation analysis using both fresh and aged blood samples with accuracy and precision. The invention is particularly applicable for the analysis of aged blood samples that have been stored at room temperature for over a day, thereby allowing accurate and useful information to be obtained from samples that are normally considered to be suboptimal. The improved reagent composition and method are particularly related to the peroxidase method of white blood cell differential determinations. One aspect of the invention includes an improved aqueous reagent composition for carrying out the peroxidase method of differential counting. Another aspect includes the use of a rinse cycle and rinse solution devoid of hemolytic surfactant to alleviate the adverse effects of rinse carryover and to streamline and economize the analytical process, particularly when the analyses are performed on automated hematology analyzers and flow cytometry systems. The composition and method of the invention provide clinically useful data for the differential analysis of whole blood samples.

Title: Concentric annular ring lens designs for astigmatic presbyopes
Inventor: MENEZES EDGAR V
IPC: G02B3/08
Filed: 1996-05-02
Abstract: Concentric lens designs are disclosed for astigmatic presbyopes which comprise at least one surface which has a circular central portion and a plurality of concentric annular rings with at least three separate optical powers corresponding to a prescription for a patient and corresponding to 1) a basic distance spherical prescription Rx, 2) a near add spherical prescription Rx, and 3) a spherical prescription corresponding to the full, or preferably a fraction of the, cylindrical prescription Rx. An astigmatic presbyopic prescription contains an astigmatic correction, normally in the nature of a cylindrical prescription which specifies both the cylindrical optical power and the orientation of the cylindrical axis. The cylindrical prescription is taken into account in the design of the lens, hut got with a cylindrical optical surface. Instead, the present invention recognizes that the brain can effectively discriminate between separate competing images by accepting an in-focus image and rejecting an out-of-focus image. Accordingly, a portion of the lens is provided with a spherical surface corresponding to the cylindrical prescription, or more preferably a fraction of the full cylindrical prescription, and the brain is relied upon to discriminate and accept an in-focus image to compensate for the patient's astigmatism.
Patent CA-2179079-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CSIPKES ANDREI
IPC: G02B6/38
Filed: 1996-06-13
Abstract: An automatic inspection system contactlessly measures the offset of a feature ofan object from a theoretical ideal center of the object, and is particularly suited for measuring at an endface of an optical fiber termination the eccentricity of an optical fiber core relative to a theoretical ideal center of the termination. The core is extremely smaller (typically between about 50 and 500 times) in size than the termination boundary. An inspection system has a feature imager, one or more boundary segment imagers butpreferably four in number, and a machine vision system connected to the foregoing imagers. The feature imager is positioned to capture an image of the feature (e.g., fiber core endface), and the one or more boundary segment imagers are positioned to capture an image of a corresponding boundary segment of the object (e.g., termination endface). The machine vision system determines the offset, or eccentricity, based upon the feature image and the one or more boundary segment images.

Title: Article of footwear for more efficient running
Inventor: CARLSON J MARTIN
IPC: A43B5/06
Filed: 1995-01-17
Abstract: An article of footwear (10) having an initial contact portion (30) and a medial/forefoot portion (34). The initial contact portion (30) exterior sole surface is formed at a dihedral angle (38) to the sole surface of the medial/forefoot portion (34) such that the heel portion has a minimal thickness of material interposed between the foot (32) and the ground surface (40) at a postero-lateral edge of the sole structure, which means that foot flight continues until the foot moves closer to the ground (40) to delay impact and increase stride length. A high friction interface (72, 172) is provided in a medial/forefoot portion of a shoe insole and low friction interface (74, 174) is provided at the initial contact portion (30) of the shoe insole. The low friction area (72) reduces sharing on foot impact, and the high friction forefoot interface (72, 172) eliminates sliding of the forefoot during foot push-off, to decrease wasted energy. Energy efficient and stride length increase are achieved.
