Abstract: Method and apparatus (10) for the analysis of one or more analytes present in a sample carried in a first fluid. The first fluid is combined with a first detector fluid and a second detector fluid to provide a fluid mixture which flows across the surface of an igniter (211). The analytes are ionized by means of an ionization process. The ion current is collected and measured at a collector electrode (213) adjacent to the igniter (211). The flow of at least one of the first detector fluid and second detector fluid is modulated during an ignition sequence according to predetermined criteria so as to facilitate flame ignition.

Abstract: In a two-beam gas analyzer, a measurement beam passes through a measurement cuvette filled with a measurement gas, and a comparison beam passes through a comparison cuvette filled with a comparison gas. Using a detector arrangement, a difference signal is generated from the beams exiting from the two cuvettes resulting in a measurement value which corresponds to the measurement gas concentration when weighted with a weighting factor. To allow recalibration after a calibration of the two-beam gas analyzer with calibration gas and adjustment of the weighting factor to a value which results in the appropriate calibration value as the measurement value, without having to fill the measurement cuvette with a calibration gas, an additional factor is determined when the measurement cuvette is not filled or is filled with inert gas. Thus, the difference signal corresponds to the calibration value when weighted with the weighting factor and the additional factor. During subsequent calibration processes, a zero point deviation of the difference signal is determined when the measurement cuvette is not filled or is filled with inert gas, and the weighting factor is corrected when the comparison beam is also interrupted in such a way that the difference signal corresponds to the calibration value when weighted with the corrected weighting factor and the additional factor.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for identifying an unknown allele of a polyallelic gene, which method comprises (i) contacting the unknown allele with a panel of probes, each of which recognises a sequence motif that is present in some alleles of the polyallelic gene but not in others; (ii) observing which probes recognise the unknown allele so as to obtain a fingerprint of the unknown allele; and (iii) comparing the fingerprint with fingerprints of known alleles. The use of a panel of probes which each recognises a different motif allows identification of which motifs are present in the unknown allele. The alleles of the polyallelic gene each have a unique combination of motifs and so identification of this combination (or "fingerprint") leads to identification of the unknown allele.

Abstract: The gas generator (12) for the airbag system inflates the airbag rapidly to the working pressure. A pressure limiter operates for a set time period to ensure that the set pressure is not exceeded e.g. by the pressure from the car occupants increasing the trapped pressure during impact. The pressure limiter operates against spring pressure and clips off the pressure peaks for a preset time period. A simple pressure limiter has a spring loaded flap valve. A more controllable pressure limiter has a piston (36) displaced by the excess pressure and controlling a number of venting outlets. This system can be enhanced by having a variable pressure preset, to provide an airbag protection matched to the type of collision.

Abstract: When a signal is played back from a damaged portion of an optical disk, immediately after the reproduction of the signal from the damaged portion, a mirror signal can be obtained with a high degree of accuracy from conversion of a traverse signal into a binary signal. 
     In a traverse-signal discriminating circuit, a traverse signal, a low-frequency component of a playback signal, is separated from the playback signal and then supplied to a hold circuit. In the hold circuit, the bottom of the traverse signal is held in order to produce a bottom hold signal. In a defect detecting circuit, in the meantime a defect in the playback signal, if any, is detected. If a defect is detected, the defect detecting circuit outputs a defect signal at an H level to a hold-voltage resetting circuit. The hold-voltage resetting circuit discharges a capacitor included in the hold circuit, halting the operation to hold the bottom of the traverse signal as long as the defect signal supplied thereto is set at the H level.

power of the signal. Changes in optical power are anticipated and

removed without causing rapid changes in total power which would
otherwise disturb the output of downstream optical amplifiers, and
cause bit errors.
