Abstract: Detection of fetal nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) is achieved by employing a combination of brightfield and fluorescence images of nuclear and cytoplasmic markers. The brightfield and fluorescence images are all obtained with a single multi-bandpass dichroic mirror. The objects in the sample are stained with a fluorescent dye that selectively stains nuclei and a dye that selectively stains fetal hemoglobin in the cytoplasm of fetal RBCs. UV excitation provides fluorescent emissions from the stained cell nuclei and visible illumination provides brightfield transmission of light that is absorbed by the stained cytoplasm. The images are processed to determine regions where the fluorescent emissions by cell nuclei in response to the UV excitation and the absorption by fetal hemoglobin of the brightfield illumination overlap or are in close proximity. The brightfield and fluorescence images may be sequentially acquired or derived from a single image where the UV excitation and visible illumination occur simultaneously.

Abstract: A cold light UV irradiation device is used for curing UV paint and UV printing dyes on heat-sensitive substrates (12,13). It is used, for example, in plants for printing on packaging foils or in the production line for CDsquares (Compact Discs) and DVDsquares (Digital Versatile Discs). The irradiation devices used until now emit in addition to the UV radiation also a high portion of heat radiation (IR Radiation) onto the substrate (12,13), which often leads to deformation and brittleness of the substrate. The present invention allows an effective separation of the UV radiation from the IR radiation. With short beam paths, a high UV intensity with a low heat load of the substrate is realized.

Abstract: A handset port interface including DC measurement and transmit path calibration. In an interface device for interfacing a telephone instrument, such as a headset, a handset, a modem, or a teleconferencing device, to the handset microphone input port of a telephone set base unit, the transmit signal level applied to the microphone input of the base unit must be set to an appropriate level. The appropriate level is determined according to the type of microphone the telephone set base unit is configured to interface with. The microphone can be carbon, electret or dynamic. The interface device detects the type of microphone the base unit is configured to interface with by detecting the DC characteristics of the microphone input port. Then, the interface device determines the appropriate transmit level by correlating the DC characteristics to one of a plurality of predetermined transmit levels. These levels are stored in a table. The transmit signal level is then automatically set according to a selected one of the predetermined transmit levels. Alternately, a test signal is applied to the microphone port of the base unit to determine its input characteristics and, then, the transmit sensitivity is set based upon this determination. A test signal can alternately be applied to the microphone located in the handset to determine its type or characteristics and, then, the transmit sensitivity is set based upon this determination. As an enhancement, receive sensitivity is adjusted for signals received from a handset speaker output port.
