Abstract: In an infrared imaging device, shutting means  40  is
configured so that it can be opened/closed and so as to shut
off an infrared radiation coming into an optical system  20 
when it is closed. During an imaging operation, the shutting
means  40  is opened, and the optical system  20  causes an
infrared radiation from an object  70  to form an image on an
infrared detector  10 . The infrared detector  10  outputs a
signal according to the amount of infrared light received by
each pixel. Correction means  30  corrects sensitivity
variations among pixels, the influence of the infrared
radiation from the optical system  20 , etc. During a
calibration operation, the shutting means  40  is closed, and
the correction means  30  determines a correction coefficient
for correcting fluctuations in the amount of infrared
radiation from the optical system  20  by using the output of
the infrared detector  10  imaging the shutting means 40.

Title: Reactif pour analyse

Filed: 2000-05-05
Abstract: Les analyses permettant la détection d'analytes potentiellement toxiques sont effectuées à partir d'une préparation de cellules eucaryotes et procaryotes qui possèdent une activité métabolique de génération de signaux. La sensibilité de telles analyses est particulièrement améliorée lorsqu'on utilise un adsorbant particulaire en phase solide, par exemple un gel de silice, qui peut être préalablement mélangé soit avec l'analyte toxique présumé, soit avec le réactif cellulaire. On a démontré que la présence de la combinaison adsorbant-analyte ou celle de la combinaison adsorbant-réactif cellulaire entraîne une amplification de la décroissance de l'intensité du signal généré, ce qui améliore la capacité de détection de l'analyse, notamment lorsque de faibles concentrations de substances toxiques sont en jeu.
