Inventor: PIERSON MARK W
IPC: B01L3/00
Filed: 1998-10-27
Abstract: Method and assay devices for the detection of the presence or
amount of biological material, analyte(s), or microorganism(s)
in a sample. The method includes the steps of liquefying the
sample (if necessary) and distributing the liquefied sample
over the surface of the assay device. The device may comprise
an incubation plate, a dip stick device, or other devices. The
devices have at least one reagent provided within the devices.
Some devices have a generally flat horizontal surface which is
devided into a plurality of recessed wells. Others have one or
more surfaces with reagent island(s) immobilized thereon. Each
well or reagent island is adapted to hold a aliquot of liquid.
The wells or reagent islands are sized and shaped, and formed
of a suitable material, to hold the aliquot within the well or
reagent island by surface tension. Any excess liquid from the
liquefied sample is drained from the surface of the device. The
method then involves incubating the assay device until the
presence or amount of the biological material, analyte, or
microorganism is determined.
Patent EP-1081566-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HIBINO RYOICHI
IPC: G05B13/02
Filed: 2000-07-31
Abstract: A characteristics change of a control object is functionally
represented by a parameter  which varies between values of 0 and
1 as the gain of the control object is surveyed. The frequency of
the identification signal is set at a frequency where the difference
in gains becomes large. The amplitude of the identification signal
is set so that the variation width of the output of the control
object is less than or equal to a predetermined value. Because the
identification accuracy improves where the input/output
characteristics with respect to the parameter are more sensitive,
the identification signal set by such a setting apparatus imparts
high identification accuracy. Moreover, because the amplitude of
the identification signal is set based on the variation width of
the output of the control object, identification can be performed
without significantly affecting the output of the control object.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for synchronising optical
signals which are conducted via different optical
waveguides to an optical network node (OS), wherein the
variations in propagation time of the optical signals

compensated by adjustable optical delay circuits (DCA and
DCB) of a synchronising device (SY1), wherein for the
setting of a new delay for one of the optical waveguides,
firstly an adjustable delay circuit (DCB) switched into the
passive state is set at the desired delay and then this
delay circuit (DCB) is switched into the active state
instead of the previously active delay circuit (DCA) by
means of a high-speed optical switch (SW), and the
invention relates to optical synchronising devices and an
