Patent EP-1227461-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HO SHIRUN
IPC: G09G3/20
Filed: 2001-07-31
Abstract: A discharge is initiated in a cell in which an address discharge is
conducted at a first timing T1 in a charge adjustment period (24).
Next, at a second timing T2, a discharge is initiated for adjusting a
wall charge in a cell where a charge remains therein because the
address discharge does not occurred. Thus, some negative charges
are formed in an X electrode and a Y electrode, thus preventing a
false discharge from occurring in an unselected cell.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a method for generating, in a non specific manner,
multiple copies of RNA from a pool of mRNA's. Such a method is of particular importance in
techniques for screening the differences in expression in given cell types or in cells under
specific conditions. The present invention provides a non-selective poly A mRNA labeling and
amplification method, i.e. a method not encompassing cDNA synthesis. The present invention
is directed to a method for amplifying RNA by creating, in a non specific manner, multiple
RNA copies starting from nucleic acid containing starting material comprising a pool of
mRNA's each mRNA comprising a poly-A tail, wherein the material is contacted
simultaneously with an oligonucleotide comprising an oligo-dT sequence, the sequence of a
promoter recognized by an RNA polymerase and a transcription initiation region which is
located between the oligo-dT sequence and the sequence of the promoter, and further with
an enzyme having reverse transcriptase activity, an enzyme having RNase H activity and an
enzyme having RNA polymerase activity and the necessary nucleotides and the resulting
reaction mixture is maintained under the appropriate conditions for a sufficient amount of time
for the enzymatic processes to take place. In a preferred method of the invention the
generated RNA copies made are contacted with an RNA ligase, a double stranded nucleic
acid complex comprising a double stranded DNA promoter sequence that can be recognized
by an RNA polymerase, whereby one strand of said complex has a stretch of RNA attached
to the 5' end of one of the DNA strands, an enzyme having RNA polymerase activity, and the
necessary nucleotides. The resulting reaction mixture is maintained under the appropriate
conditions for a sufficient amount of time for the amplification to take place.

Abstract: An array of light-sensitive sensors utilizes bipolar phototransistors
(10 and 12; 68 and 70) that are formed of multiple amorphous semi-conductor
layers, such as silicon. In the preferred embodiment, the bipolar
transistors are open base devices. In this preferred embodiment, the holes
that are generated by reception of incoming photons to a particular open
base phototransistor provide current injection to the base region (18; 63
and 65; 78) of the phototransistor. The collector region (20; 62 and 64; 80) is
preferably an intrinsic amorphous silicon layer. The phototransistors may be
operated in either an integrating mode in which bipolar current is integrated or
a static mode in which a light-responsive voltage is monitored.

Abstract: A veneer dehydrating apparatus which has a pair of rotatable
dehydrating roll assemblies disposed one above the other and having their axes
extending parallel to each other, at least one of which is positively driven. The
paired roll assemblies includes a first roll assembly having formed on the

Abstract: In the present invention, distortion component of a device such as a
power amplifier can be easily compensated for, and a simple structure can
be achieved without requiring a demodulator. A voltage comparator (17)
compares an envelope voltage of an output PA_out of a power amplifier
(14), which has been corrected by an AM_ctl signal outputted from an
amplitude correction memory (4), with an envelope voltage before the
correction, to detect which of the envelope voltages is larger/smaller.
Further, a logic section (18) adds and/or subtracts data in an amplitude
compensation memory, so as to correct the relationship as to which of the
envelope voltages is larger/smaller. At this time, data in the memory is
updated by one bit for every one time of operation. Therefore, the data is
corrected to a correct value by accessing one same address sometimes. In
an inputted high-frequency signal PA-in, one same voltage appears at a
certain provability on the time axis, if the envelope changes like a QPSK
modulation wave, for example. Thus, all addresses are corrected to proper
values as the time goes.

Abstract: When a logical block is built in an LSI logic design
stage, a maximum delay value between pins of a block
is set based on a designer' s estimation, or information
of a netlist after the netlist is generated. Pins can
be grouped. A delay value in a connection between pins
is represented by the largest value. Additionally, a
plurality of internal memory elements within a logical
block are represented by one or a plurality of internal
latches. Also as a delay value between a pin and an
internal latch, or between an internal latch and a pin,
the largest value is selected from among a plurality
of delay values, and set as a representative value.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cathode ray tube and an intensity controlling method
achieving a reduced amount of factors for correcting intensity prepared and
capable of performing proper intensity control so that the joint portion of split
picture planes is inconspicuous from a viewpoint of intensity. With respect to
the direction of overlapping a plurality of split picture planes, only correction
factors at representative signal levels are pre-stored as a basic factor table (S107).
Any of the factors at the other signal levels is obtained by performing an
interpolating operation (S105) using the basic factors in the basic factor table.
The value of the signal level of a video signal referred to when the correction
factor in the overlapping direction is obtained is changed by using a shift factor
associated with the pixel position in the direction orthogonal to the overlapping
direction. The basic factor is thereby changed according to the pixel position in
the orthogonal direction.

The support (12, 13) is joined with the lower flange (11) at that end which is opposite of
the pier (28, 29), so that the pier and the support (12, 13) form a projection from the at
least one top flange (11). Several piers on adjacent roof trusses will together form the

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des procédés et des compositions utilisées dans la diversification efficace in vivo de produits géniques d'un champignon filamenteux, notamment, deux ou plusieurs copies d'un constituant de gène simple. La diversification implique l'utilisation du procédé de mutation RIP (Repeat-Induced Point mutation) dans le champignon N. crassa, et dans d'autres champignons qui présentent des procédés de mutation analogues. Cette invention exploite l'induction des mutations de transition G:C/A:T spécifiques aux séquences d'ADN dédoublé durant la phase dicaryon préméiotique du cycle de vie du champignon. En outre, on peut utiliser les procédés et compositions de cette invention pour engendrer une diversité dans les gènes cibles. Ils sont également proposés pour modifier et produire de nouvelles formes et activités de produits géniques ainsi codés. On peut introduire les gènes dédoublés dans l'organisme. Ceux-ci sont présents soit en tandem, soit dans des positions ectopiques séparées dans le génome du champignon. Après croisement du/des transformant(s) obtenu(s), on peut alors sélectionner la descendance sexuelle qui contient le gène mutant, puis la cribler pour obtenir le produit recherché.

Abstract: A centrifugal vapor/liquid separator separates the vapor and liquid in a flash of hydrocarbon and steam mixture, such that only the vapor stream is fed and processed further downstream. The design of the separator ensures that all partially wetted surfaces in the separator, except at the vapor outlet pipe, are well-wetted and washed by the non-vaporized liquid portion of the feed or by injection of external liquid thus ensuring that no coke deposition occurs inside the separator. The flash temperature in the separator therefore can be increased beyond the typical limit thus achieving a deeper cut into the feed and recovering a larger fraction of the feed as vapor for further downstream processing.
