Abstract: An assay for detecting in a test sample, an analyte that undergoes auto-oxidation is disclosed. The assay comprises the steps of forming a reaction mixture by combining in an aqueous medium (i) a sample containing the analyte and (ii) a stabilizer that reduces the rate of radical mediated auto-oxidation of the analyte. The reaction mixture is incubated for a period of time and the rate of auto-oxidation is detected. When the detected rate of auto-oxidation is substantially zero, a sufficient quantity of an enzyme is added, that catalyzes the oxidation of the analyte. In the presence of the stabilizer, the analyte can be oxidized to a product species. The product species, the analyte, or both can be detected.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for decoding bar code symbols using an analysis of the ratios of the module size for the bars and spaces of the bar code. The invention is applicable to any bar code having one or more nominal widths in the bars and spaces, and is particularly useful in bar codes having multiples widths in the specification for the bar code and in situations where the bar code signal has a low signal-to-noise ratio, or is degraded because of a damaged, smudged, or dirty bar code, or where the bar code is read at less than the optimum angle. The invention identifies mis-decoded characters and uses adaptive techniques to decode characters previously non-decodable or mis-decoded by standard methods, thereby improving the decode rate as compared to prior techniques. The decoding rate is improved without having to re-scan the bar code for a new signal, thereby making the invention particularly useful for high-speed or one-pass decoding operations.

Abstract: The invention is a tar retention device for insertion in the smoke path of a cigarette between the point of combustion and the smoker. The device is comprised of a chamber with an inlet duct formed on the side of the point of combustion and outlet side facing the smoker. The inlet duct is narrower than the outlet duct and each duct tapers towards their respective ends inside of the chamber. The difference in dimensions of the inlet and outlet ducts creates a hypobaric action within the chamber causing the deposition of tar within the chamber.

Abstract: An access, monitor and test system (170) for a telephone network. The system (170) provides selective, and hitless, bit overwrite in any of the embedded channels, for example, DS1, DS0 and subrate, in a signal (134), for example, DS3. Multiple DS0 and subrate channels can be tested via the asynchronous time slot interchange (252) in conjunction with the recombiner (458) of the present invention. The present invention further includes a lookahead reframer (474) for framing to the DS3 signal (134). The present invention also includes a facilities data link (FDL) handler (254, 1068) for capturing the FDL channel data in every DS1 channel in a DS3 signal. A high speed bit-for-bit compare (470) is interfaced to a protect path to provide 1:1 fault protection in the system of the present invention. Full time performance monitoring on DS1 and DS3 signals is performed by a shared resource. The system of the present invention provides an integrated approach to synchronization measurement and relative synchronization. A portion of the relative synchronization method is the auto search reference select sequence (1168). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un voile élastomère, tridimensionnel, poreux et expansé à l'échelle macroscopique, qui peut servir dans des parties élastiques d'articles absorbants jetables tels que des pansements, des couches-culottes et des culottes de propreté de type couche-culotte à bande élastique de maintien. Dans une réalisation préférée de l'invention, le voile possède une première surface continue et une seconde surface discontinue, à distance de la première surface. Un voile élastomère de la présente invention comporte de préférence un film formé, doté d'au moins deux couches polymères, l'une de ces couches au moins étant un élastomère et l'une au moins des autres couches étant une couche 'peau' sensiblement moins élastomère. Dans une réalisation préférée, le voile élastomère présente une multiplicité d'ouvertures primaires sur la première surface du voile, ces ouvertures primaires étant définies dans le plan de la première surface par un réseau continu d'éléments d'interconnexion. Chacun de ces éléments d'interconnexion présente une section transversale de forme concave, orientée vers le haut, suivant sa longueur. Ces éléments d'interconnexion prennent fin sensiblement en parallèle de manière à constituer une ouverture secondaire dans le plan de la seconde surface du voile. L'invention se rapporte également à un procédé de fabrication de ce voile élastomère qui consiste à utiliser un film élastomère multicouche, à faire reposer ledit film sur une structure de formage, et à appliquer un différentiel de pression, au moyen d'un fluide, suivant l'épaisseur du film multicouche. Ce différentiel de pression est suffisamment important pour que le film multicouche adopte la forme de la structure de support et se rompe au niveau d'au moins certaines parties du film formé.
