Patent TW-423181-B (TW)
Title: Equilateral-triangular microstrip antenna for circular polarization
Inventor: LU RUEI-HAN
Filed: 1998-06-01
Granted: 2001-02-21
Abstract: Circularly polarized microstrip antenna designs are mostly focused on the nearly-square or nearly-circular geometry. A novel design of circularly polarized equilateral-triangular microstrip antenna is achieved by insetting a narrow slit at the edge of the patch antenna. And, circular polarization (CP) radiation can be obtained using a single probe feed. When the slit length is adjusted to be about 0.1 times the side length of the triangular patch and the 50 <OMEGA>-probe-location is properly chosen, this CP design can be easily implemented with minimum axial ratio and optimal radiation patterns.

IPC: G01N33/58
Filed: 1998-06-22
Granted: 2001-08-21
Abstract: Disclosed is an improved assay for the determination of total protein in an aqueous test fluid such as urine. The assay involves combining the test fluid with a molybdate or tungstate salt and a dye which forms a complex with molybdate or tungstate ion at a pH of 1.0 to 3.0 to shift the absorption band of the complex in the presence of protein. There is introduced into the assay a substituted phenolsul-fonephthalein dye having a pKa which enables it to operate at a pH of from about 1.0 to 3.0 and whose affinity for protein is such that it will provide a dectable response only in the presence of greater than 50 mg/dL of protein to increase the scope of the assay.
