Title: Method for measuring free ligands in biological fluids
IPC: G01N33/531
Filed: 1986-01-17
Abstract: The invention provides a method for measuring the concentration of free testosterone ligand in a biological fluid in the presence of bound ligand and endogenous binding proteins, without disturbing the equilibrium between free ligand and protein-bound ligand, which method comprises   (a) incubating, in the absence of salicylate, 2,4-dinitrophenol and 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid, a sample of the biological fluid with (i) a ligand analog tracer which, due to its chemical structure, does not bind to some of the endogenous binding proteins but does bind to at least one other endogenous binding protein, (ii) a concentration of a specific ligand binder having an affinity constant and selectivity for the free ligand such that the equilibrium between free ligand and protein-bound ligand is not disturbed and (iii) a concentration of sulfobromophthalein (SBP) that inhibits the binding of the ligand analog tracer to said at least one other endogenous binding protein sufficient to block reaction between the ligand analog tracer and said at least one other endogenous binding protein without displacing ligand from protein-bound ligand; (b) separating the ligand analog tracer bound to the specific ligand binder from unbound tracer; and (c) determining the concentration of free ligand in said biological fluid.

IPC: B41J2/205
Filed: 1986-12-03
Abstract: A binary signal for driving a single color, bi-level print 
device, such as an ink jet head, in order to produce a picture 
having multiple levels of saturation of the single color in re­
sponse to an analog picture signal of which the magnitude 
varies in dependence upon the desired level of saturation 
over the picture along a predetermined scanning path, is gen­
erated by resolving the picture into a plurality of dither cells 
and resolving each dither cell into an identical array of separ­
ately addressable picture elements having predetermined re­
spective positions in the dither cell. A reference value is 
assigned to the position of each picture element in each 
dither cell, the reference value for a given position in a given 
cell being the same as that for the same position in each other 
cell. The reference values are used to generate a reference 
signal that is synchronous with the analog picture signal, and 
the analog picture signal is compared with the reference 
signal. The value of the binary signal depends on the result of 
the comparison of the analog, picture and the reference 
signal.

Abstract: Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans has frequently 
been implicated in juvenile periodontitis. The present mono­
clonal antibodies are specific to Actinobacillus actinomyce­
temcomitans. The present monoclonal antibodies are typically 
employed as reagents which include an inert carrier, preferably 
a liquid, such as buffered saiine solution and a preservative. 
The carrier compositions are suitably selected to provide for 
the proper dispersal of bacteria, and to preserve the integrity 
of antigens and supplemental structures. The selection of the 
proper carrier is especially important in the detection in mix­
tures which include bacteria which produce large amounts of 
autolytic enzymes such as B. gingivalis. The monoclonal anti­
bodies of the present invention are useful in clinical testing and 
differentiating antigens in the gingival or subgingival sera. The 
method of testing and differentiating involves the steps of con­
tacting a sample of the bacterial flora from a lesion or other site 
with a measured amount of monoclonal antibody specific to a 
single antigen site on Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans 
and subsequently measuring the number of antibody-antigen 
complexes formed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a coating for reducing dust formation and hygrescopicity of nitrate-containing fertilizer, especially calcium nitrate, and a method for manufacture of conditioned fertilizer. The coating comprises wax and mineral oil and contains 2-10 weight% polyethylene wax having an average molecular weight of 1500-3000, 20-35 weight% microcrystalline wax with a melting point of 50-70 DEG C, 2-15 weight% paraffin wax with a melting point of 50-70 DEG C and 70-80 weight% mineral oil having a boiling point of 300-400 DEG C. The coating might be a 2-component coating which is applied in two steps. The first coating then consists of 5-15 weight% polyethylene wax, 30-50 weight% microcrystalline wax and 40-60 weight% mineral oil and the other coating of 5-20 weight% microcrystalline wax, 5-30 weight% paraffin wax and 60-80 weight% mineral oil. The relative amounts of the first and second coating is 2-1:1. Preferably mineral oil of the same type is used in both coatings. When applying a 2-component coating, 0,05-0,25 weight% of the first coating and after 30-150 seconds 0,05-0,25 weight% of the second coating are used.

Title: Digital timing signal generator and voltage regulator circuit
IPC: H03K19/003
Filed: 1987-10-02
Abstract: A digital timing signal generator and voltage regulator circuit is provided. In one embodiment the circuit includes a delay line. The delay line operating voltage is derived from digitally encoded power/timing signals transmitted by an isolated logic control circuit. The delay line receives and propagates the digitally encoded signals. Outputs of selected stages of the delay line are tapped to provide multiphasic timing signals for use by associated logic circuits. A plurality of gates having inputs connected to various stages of the delay line receive selected timing signals as they propagate along the delay line. Increases in the operating voltage cause the selected timing signals to sequentially activate the gates. The output of each activated gate then goes high and current flows through an associated load resistor connected between the output of the gate and ground to continuously load the supply voltage and thereby regulate it. In variations of this embodiment, two and three levels of gates and load resistors are provided to progressively load the supply voltage and thereby provide additional regulation thereof. In another embodiment, a ring-oscillator comprised of CMOS inverters generates the timing signals. The ring oscillator consumes current in approximately a square relationship with increases in its supply voltage and thereby regulates the voltage.

Title: Crosspoint circuitry for data packet space division switches
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 1987-07-29
Abstract: An electronics space-division packet switch is disclosed in which each switch crosspoint includes digital logic capable of resolving simultaneous contentions for the source output buss medium. In particular, a bit-by-bit comparison (51) of priority codes disconnects all switches (54) but the one with the highest priority from the output buss (12). This extremely simple crosspoint switch structure makes possible extremely large space-division packet switches in very compact physical form, using large scale integration techniques.

Title: Transponder frequency offset compensation with recurrently assigned unique words
IPC: H04B7/208
Filed: 1989-01-10
Abstract: In a satellite communications system, satellite channels are divided 
into groups of successively adjacent channels which are covered by a range 
of frequency drifts caused by a satellite transponder and the channels of 
each group are assigned unique words of different bit patterns. 
Modulation systems of an earth station are associated respectively with 
demodulation system (7, 8) of distant earth station via the respective satellite 
channels. A unique word is transmitted from each modulation system 
together with an information signal and received by an associated 
demodulation system of the distant earth station. A variable frequency 
carrier is synthesized in the demodulation system to demodulate the 
received signal to recover the information signal and the unique word. 
The recovered unique word is used to establish the frame start timing and 
the variable frequency carrier is controlled in response to the unique word 
to tune in the demodulation system to the desired satellite channel.
