Abstract: Specific detection of proteolytic enzymes is achieved by extinguishing dye fluorescence by the amino acid tryptophan. Ttyptophan is disposed on one side of the cutting site of a proteolytic enzyme while an amino acid marked with a dye is arranged on the other side. Extinction of fluorescence occurs prior to enzyme cutting. Spatial separation of the tryptophan and the dye takes place after cutting, whereby fluorescence extinction does not occur. The dye can then fluoresce and a signal increase occurs thereby indicating that cutting has been carried out and the presence of the enzyme.

Abstract: A method for correcting inherent distortions in a CT or MRI imaging process (50), or distortions arising from excessive patient movement during the scan by means of registration device inserted into the mouth (40) of the patient at the time the scan is being performed. The registration device incorporates a set of fiducial markers disposed in a predetermined three-dimensional pattern. The exact positions of the fiducial markers are known with respect to each other, thus providing a three-dimensional references against which the resulting images can be compared (48). Additionally, a method whereby three-dimensional CT or MRI images taken prior to an operation, are accurately registered and integrated with real-time tracking positional data of the patient's body part and instruments operating thereon. Application is described for the drilling of a patient's jaw for the placement of dental implants.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé en deux parties destiné à réduire l'apport de bruit dans un signal composite par transformation en ondelettes. Ledit procédé consiste à identifier des sous-espaces dans l'espace d'état reconstruit créé par des processus dynamiques (soit par bruit déterministe, soit par le signal lui-même), la séparation des différents sous-espaces et la séparation des sous-espaces de bruit stochastique. Ledit procédé est utilisé dans l'atténuation du bruit non linéaire (NLD) de signaux chronologiques magnétocardiographiques ou électrocardiographiques grâce à l'exécution de projections locales dans l'espace d'état reconstruit par transformation d'ondelettes pour identifier et décrire des structures déterministes. Des sous-espaces générés par un processus déterministe sont situés et séparés indépendamment de sa source.

Abstract: A system for a turbocharged internal combustion engine includes
an engine (10) having a charge inlet (14) connected to the compressor outlet (26) and an
exhaust outlet (16) connected to the turbine inlet (28) for driving the turbocharger (18) with
hot exhaust gas and supplying compressed air to the engine (10) for combustion.
A bypass duct (44) connects the compressor outlet (26) to the turbine inlet (28) for
diverting a portion of the compressed air around the engine (10) to the turbine
inlet (28). A control member (50) selectively controls the diversion of air. An
operating method for the system involves controlling surge in an engine
turbocharger compressor by diverting a portion of compressed air to the
turbine inlet (28) to limit compressor air pressure and insure sufficient air flow to
avoid compressor surge. Preferably, the diverted air enters a distal part (46) of
an engine exhaust header (16) for mixing with the exhaust gases prior to passing
into the turbine inlet (28). Other benefits are disclosed.

Abstract: A shift control apparatus for a bicycle (10) comprises an output transmission member
(454) that moves to at least a first output position and a second output position, a position
maintaining mechanism, and a release control mechanism. The position maintaining
mechanism includes a position maintaining member (474, 1332, 1474) that moves between
a position maintaining position and a position release position, wherein the position maintaining
position maintains the output transmission member (454) in one of the first output
position and the second output position. The position release position allows the output
transmission member (454) to move toward the other one of the first output position and the
second output position. The release control mechanism includes a release member (486;
486'; 1320, 1486) that moves between a first release member position and a second release
member position. The release control mechanism moves the position maintaining member
(474; 1332) to the position release position as the release member (486; 486'; 1320, 1486)
moves from the first release member position toward the second release member position
and allows the position maintaining member (4784; 1332) to return to the position maintaining
position before the release member (486, 486', 1320, 1486) begins moving back
toward the first release member position, or as the release member (486; 486', 1320, 1486)
continues to move toward the second release member position.

Abstract: An objective lens, especially a projection lens for a microlithographic projection illumination system comprising at least one fluoride crystal lens. The disruptive effect of double refraction is reduced by the fact that the lens is a lens (100) having an axis which is approximately perpendicular in relation to the crystal planes {100} or the equivalent crystal planes of the fluoride crystal. In objective lenses consisting of at least two fluoride crystal lenses it is advantageous to arrange the fluoride crystal lenses in such a way that they are skewed in relation to each other. The lens axes of the fluid crystal lenses can point in direction <111> or <110> in addition to direction <100> of the crystal. The disruptive effect of double refraction can also be reduced by using groups with skewed (110) lenses and groups with (111) lenses or groups with (110) lenses. The disruptive effect of double refraction can be further reduced by providing an optical element with a compensating coating.

Abstract: Anti-prick device for safe manipulation of an angled injection needle through the skin to supply an implanted chamber under the skin comprises three articulated panels, namely a four-lobed base panel, a needle-carrying panel and a covering panel. Two opposite lobes of the base panel are precurved to facilitate their application onto the skin; the other two lobes can be bent by the pressure of two fingers of one hand in order to retain the chamber when the operator retracts the needle with the other hand. Anti-prick device for safe manipulation of an injection needle through the skin to supply an implanted chamber under the skin, where the needle comprises a distal perforating branch at an angle to a proximal supply branch, comprises a wall of three articulated panels allowing the wall to be put in a configuation where a needle-carrying panel (2) is folded onto a base panel (1) and a covering panel (3) is folded onto the needle-carrying panel and fixed thereto, and to be put in a configuation where the needle-carrying panel and the covering panel, fixed to one another, are moved away from the base panel to create a space big enough to contain the distal branch of the needle. The base panel and needle-carrying panel have perforations (4, 6) through which the distal branch can be passed until the proximal branch rests on the needle-carrying panel and can be covered by the covering panel. The base panel has four lateral lobes around a central area (1a) containing its perforation and the needle-carrying panel has two lateral wings (2a, 2b) that can be grasped during insertion and retraction of the needle. The novelty lies in the fact that two opposite lobes (1b, 1d) of the base panel are precurved to facilitate their application onto the skin; the other two lobes (1c, 1e) can be bent by the pressure of two fingers of one hand in order to retain the chamber when the operator retracts the needle with the other hand; and the needle-carrying panel and covering panel are joined to the precurved lobes and have opposite curvature to the lobes so that they follow the curvature of the lobes when folded onto the base panel.
