Inventor: NANBU ATSUKO
IPC: C12Q1/37
Filed: 1998-08-24
Abstract: A method for measuring the concentration or the activity of UTI
quickly and easily at high sensitivity. A urine sample, a buffer solution, a
trypsin solution and a substrate solution are mixed and the trypsin activity
is then measured. Thus, the UTI concentration in the urine sample is
determined. In this case, a substrate solution having only L-BAPNA is used
as the substrate, and the surfactant is mixed in at least one selected from the
buffer solution and the enzyme solution. The mixing ratio of the surfactant
is about 1 wt.% in the entire enzyme reaction solution. Examples of the
surfactant include polyoxyethylene (40) octylphenylether, polyoxyethylene
(10) octylphenylether, 3-[(3-cholamido propyl) dimethylammonio]propanesulfonic
acid, 3-[(3-cholamido propyl) dimethylammonio]-2-hydroxypropanesulfonic acid, and polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate.
As shown in FIG. 1, the sensitivity improves when using L-BAPNA.

sequence by a printer engine (32) so that the total pages
of a print data file selected to be printed by partitioned
printing are divided and printed in segments at intervals
of a set period in units of a determined number of pages.
In the image printing system and the printing method
according to the selection of partitioned printing, non-urgent

Abstract: Method and apparatus for filtering non-text
information from a page containing text, the text being
associated with a color. The page is represented as an
image in a first color space. The image is converted to a
second color space that has a color channel closely
associated with the text color. The color channel is
selected and gray values are derived that correspond to text
color channel values associated with cells in the image.
Cells in the image having gray values of a predefined
relationship with respect to predetermined threshold values
are marked as text cells, and the remaining cells are
identified as non-text cells. The gray values of the text
and non-text cells are adjusted to increase the contrast
between text and non-text information. The single-color
space image may then be printed by a monochrome printer.
Patent EP-0924463-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SNYDER TIMOTHY S
IPC: F23D14/82
Filed: 1998-12-10
Abstract: A tangential entry premixing fuel injector ( 10 ) for a gas turbine engine
combustor includes a pair of offset scrolls ( 18 ) whose ends define a pair of entry slots
( 36 ) for admitting primary combustion air tangentially into a mixing chamber ( 28 )
bounded by the scrolls ( 18 ) and by longitudinally spaced endplates ( 14, 16 ). An array
of fuel injection passages ( 42 ) extends along the length of the slots. The passage array
is configured to inject a primary fuel nonuniformly along the length of the air entry slots
and to control the fuel penetration depth    d    in proportion to slot height  H . The injector
also includes a flame disgorging centerbody ( 48 ) having a bluff tip ( 54 ) longitudinally
aligned with the injector's discharge plane ( 22 ) and a secondary fuel conduit ( 80 )
extending through the centerbody for discharging a secondary combustible fluid,
preferably gaseous fuel, through a series of fuel discharge openings ( 84 ) in the tip ( 54 ).
The flame disgorging centerbody improves fuel injector durability by resisting ingestion
of combustion flame into the mixing chamber ( 28 ) and reliably disgorging any flame
that is ingested. The controlled fuel penetration depth reinforces the flame disgorging
capability of the centerbody by preventing fuel from penetrating into the slowly moving
boundary layer attached to the centerbody ( 48 ). The bluff character of the centerbody,
in combination with its longitudinal alignment with the fuel injector discharge plane,
makes the centerbody capable of anchoring the flame at the discharge plane so that
combustion occurs aft of the discharge plane where the combustion flame is unlikely
to damage the scrolls or centerbody. Introduction of fuel or fuel and air through the
openings in the bluff tip encourage the flame to become anchored to the tip and
therefore spatially stabilizes the flame, resulting in additional attenuation of acoustic
oscillations and further improved combustor durability. The longitudinally nonuniform
injection of primary fuel compensates for any mixing nonuniformities attributable to
the flame disgorging centerbody and therefore augments flame stability. The injector
and an associated method of premixing fuel and air prior to combustion suppress
formation of nitrous oxides, and improve the durability of both the injector and the
combustor.

Abstract: In a frequency-conversion circuit having a multistage frequency-converting means, at least two stages are coupled through divider means to one and the same voltage-controlled oscillator. Inputs of the multistage frequency-converting means are coupled to one another in a phase error-free manner by frequency divider means embodied as easy-to-implement counters. By virtue thereof, one phase locked loop including such a voltage-controlled oscillator can be dispensed with, thus saving surface area, components on a chip and reducing costs and weight, which is particularly important in connection with the application of the frequency-conversion circuit in mobile communication equipment.
