Patent EP-0110173-B1 (EP)
IPC: C12Q1/26
Filed: 1983-10-31
Granted: 1987-03-04
Abstract: A test device of use in the diffuse reflectance colorimetric determination of analytes (e.g. glucose, ethanol) in coloured aqueous fluids (e.g. whole blood, blood serum, blood plasma) and its use in such determinations is disclosed. The test device comprises a diffuse reflective backing (12) to which is affixed a thin translucent hydrophilic substrate pad (11) (sample pad) which contains reagents (e.g. an oxydase for the analyte, a substance having peroxidase activity and a substance which will react with hydrogene peroxyde to give a coloured compound). The reagents react with the analyte being determined. The device finds preferred application in the measurement of sugars in fluids, especially glucose in whole blood. It requires only a small sample size and allows for simple and more accurate colorimetric determinations than before.

Abstract: A boat having a pair of bottom banels provided with respective flaps to cause the stern of the boat to ride relatively high in the water when the boat is driven forwardly in the water by an outboard motor. In one embodiment, the flaps pivot downwardly and provide drag for the stern in response to forward movement of the boat. In two other embodiments, the flaps provide planing surfaces near the stern. The boat can be collapsible in which case the bottom panels mate with resilient side panels to form, when collapsed, a flat sandwich configuration which, by the means of improved straps, can be carried on the top of a vehicle or can be hand-carried. An improved bracket for the stern of the boat is used to permit positive attachment of an outboard motor to the boat.

Abstract: A method of and apparatus for obtaining digital expression of analog signals, in particular signals produced by «reading» (i.e., transducing) head-positioning information recorded on storage media, for example magnetic recording media. Head-positioning signals (36, 38) constitute signals bursts which are processed to obtain pulses whose width is dictated by the amplitude of the detected bursts, and the pulse width in each instance is expressed digitally by using the magnitude of the pulse to drive a counter-timer (61). The resulting count integrally embodies a digitized representation of the initial analog signal burst, which is directly available for further processing by digital means and for storage in digital memory apparatus.
