Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device that can prevent reduction of through put by deliberately judging a residual attraction force between an electrostatic chuck and a substrate and can detect any failure that may be found in a sensor system or conditions of a substrate, etc.  <P>SOLUTION: A substrate retaining device 60 comprises a force sensor 36 for detecting the force applied on a push up member 34 when a substrate 2 is pushed up, and a control device 50. The control device 50 measures a force F detected by the force sensor 36, outputs a normal signal S<SB>N</SB>when the measured force F is equal to or greater than a lower limit F<SB>L</SB>and equal to or lower than an upper limit F<SB>H</SB>, outputs an abnormal signal S<SB>L</SB>when the force is small than the lower limit F<SB>L</SB>. When the force exceeds the upper limit F<SB>H</SB>, it re-measures the force F detected by the force sensor 36 after having waited for a pre-determined time T. When the re-measured force F is equal to or greater than the lower limit F<SB>L</SB>and is equal to or less than the upper limit F<SB>H</SB>, it outputs the normal signal S<SB>N</SB>. When the force is smaller than the lower limit F<SB>L</SB>, it outputs the abnormal signal S<SB>L</SB>. When the force is greater than the upper limit F<SB>H</SB>, it outputs an abnormal signal S<SB>H</SB>.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method whereby taxol, baccatin III, and other taxol-like compounds, or taxanes, can be produced in very high yield from known Taxus species, (e.g. brevifolia, canadensis, cuspidata, baccata, globosa, floridana, wallichiana, media and chinensis).  <P>SOLUTION: Particular modifications of culture conditions (i.e. media composition and operating modes) have been discovered to enhance the yield of various taxanes from cell culture of all species of Taxus. Particularly preferred enhancement agents include silver ion or complex, jasmonic acid (especially the methyl ester), auxin-related growth regulators, and inhibitors of the phenylpropanoid pathway, such as 3,4-methylenedioxy-6-nitrocinnamic acid. These enhancement agents may be used alone or in combination with one another or other yield-enhancing conditions. While the yield of taxanes from plant cell culture of T. chinensis is particularly enhanced by use of one or more of these conditions, yield of taxanes for all Taxus species has been found to benefit from use of these conditions.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately process advancement control of a brushless motor using a position sensor.  <P>SOLUTION: Holes IC8u, 8v, and 8w are provided as a positional sensor for detecting rotational position of a motor M in correspondence with each phase. The detection signal of the sensor signal that has passed a filter circuit 11 is input in an advancement setting circuit 12 and an averaging circuit 14. In the averaging circuit, the sensing interval (timing for rising and falling) of each detection signal is acquired by equally dividing the length of previous one cycle, and the timing signal (interval ta) is output to the advancement setting circuit. In the advancement setting circuit, each detection signal that is acquired by subjecting the timing of sensing interval that is averaged to an advancement process is output to a PWM signal generating circuit 13. Thus, the effect caused by a difference in delay time when the detection signal is filtered is eliminated, and deviation in starting timing for electrification is prevented. No shift occurs with reference timing when advancement control is performed, resulting in accurate advancement control.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
