Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting microorganisms in a sample by means of a nucleic acid probe. Conventional detection methods are, for example, the in-situ hybridization of microorganisms with fluorescence-labeled oligonucleotide probes (fluorescent in-situ hybridization). A disadvantage of said method is that an epifluorescence microscope is required for evaluating the results. According to the invention, the disadvantages of the in-situ hybridization method are overcome by hybridizing the microorganisms to be detected in a sample with a specific nucleic acid probe, removing non-hybridized nucleic acid probe molecules, separating and then detecting and optionally quantifying the hybridized nucleic acid probe molecules.

Abstract: A device and method for continuous outer-loop power control on a physical channel which transmits only power control bits and no data while in discontinuous transmission (DTX) mode in a CDMA mobile communication system is disclosed. In the power controlling device according to one aspect of the present invention, a frame error detector detects an error from a frame of predetermined length and generates an error signal indicating whether an error has been generated. A closed-loop power controller compares a threshold with the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in each power control group (PCG) in a plurality of periods of the frame and generates power control information according to the comparison result. An outer-loop power controller increases the threshold in order to generate power control information that commands a power increase in response to an error signal indicating the existence of a frame error, and decreases the threshold in order to generate power control information that commands a power decrease in response to an error signal indicating the absence of a frame error. An offset controlling unit, which is connected to the outer-loop power controller, receives gating information about the gated transmission of data in a frame at a predetermined rate, and generates an offset signal, which indicates an offset corresponding to a changed gating rate if the gating rate is changed.

Abstract: This system includes a transformer separable/detachable between a primary winding and a secondary winding, and a capacitor connected parallel to the secondary winding of the above-mentioned transformer, and supplies a high-frequency AC voltage to the primary winding of the transformer to generate an induced voltage in the secondary winding of the transformer, and transmits the electrical power to a load in non-contact manner. The voltage supplied to the load is constant and the flowing current varies. The power may be supplied to a different kind of a load with a constant voltage. Taking as a first condition a fact that at the time of a maximum load, the time of the reversal of the voltage polarity of the above-mentioned primary winding substantially coincides with the time when an oscillating voltage of the above-mentioned capacitor reaches a maximum or minimum value, and taking as a second condition a fact that at the time of a minimum load, the time of the reversal of the voltage polarity of the above-mentioned primary winding substantially coincides with the time when the oscillating voltage of the above-mentioned capacitor completes one cycle, the above-mentioned capacitor is set so that the capacity value satisfies simultaneously the above-mentioned first and second conditions. This allows the load voltage to be made constant in a load current range from a minimum to a maximum without requiring a feedback circuit. <IMAGE>
