Title: Monolayer and electrode for detecting a label-bearing target and method of use thereof
Inventor: ECKHARDT ALLEN E
IPC: C12Q1/6825
Filed: 2000-02-04
Abstract: An electrode for detecting interactions between members of a binding pair, which electrode has been modified by formation of a non-conductive self-assembled monolayer, and a method of detecting biomolecules, such as nucleic acids or other targets, including receptors, ligands, antigens or antibodies, utilizing such an electrode. When contacted with a target nucleic acid, an oligonucleotide probe coupled to the self-assembled monolayer reacts with the target nucleic acid to form a hybridized nucleic acid on the modified electrode surface. The hybridized nucleic acid is reacted with a transition metal complex capable of oxidizing a preselected base in the hybridized nucleic acid in an oxidation-reduction reaction, the oxidation-reduction reaction is detected, and the presence or absence of the nucleic acid is determined from the detected oxidation-reduction reaction.
Patent AU-3541597-A (AU)
Title: Method for operating a generator and circuit for carrying out the method
Inventor: BARTSCH KNUT
IPC: H02K3/28
Filed: 1997-07-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for operating a generator with a plurality of generator windings in which a voltage is induced. When rotational speeds or voltage supply are low, at least two of the generator windings are connected in series and when rotational speeds or voltage supply of the individual generator windings are higher, said windings are connected in parallel thereby reducing the voltage of the generator. The overall voltage of the generator is consequently easily maintained in a predetermined range without the need for complicated voltage regulators. High output voltages are also produced when rotational speeds are low and operate electrical apparatus, in particular fuel injection devices. The process according to the invention can also be used for other active voltage sources, such as solar cells, batteries etc. which do not provide a constant voltage supply but have consumers which require a substantially constant voltage.

Title: System and method for scheduling broadcast of and access to video programs and other data using customer profiles
Inventor: HERZ FREDERICK
IPC: G06Q30/02
Filed: 1995-11-29
Abstract: A system and method for scheduling the receipt of desired movies and other forms of data from a network which simultaneously distributes many sources of such data to many customers, as in a cable television system. Customer profiles are developed for the recipient describing how important certain characteristics of the broadcast video program, movie or other data are to each customer. From these profiles, an “agreement matrix” is calculated by comparing the recipient's profiles to the actual profiles of the characteristics of the available video programs, movies, or other data. The agreement matrix thus characterizes the attractiveness of each video program, movie, or other data to each prospective customer. “Virtual” channels are generated from the agreement matrix to produce a series of video or data programming which will provide the greatest satisfaction to each customer. Feedback paths are also provided so that the customer's profiles and/or the profiles of the video programs or other data may be modified to reflect actual usage. Kiosks are also developed which assist customers in the selection of videos, music, books, and the like in accordance with the customer's objective profiles.

Patent AU-4936199-A (AU)
Title: Process for the treatment of waste water containing ammonia
Inventor: DIJKMAN HENDRIK
IPC: C02F3/34
Filed: 1999-07-13
Abstract: A process is described for the biological treatment of waste water containing ammonia, wherein the waste water is treated with sludge containing nitrifying bacteria in an aerated reactor, applying a sludge retention time in the reactor which favours nitrite-producing bacteria over nitrate-producing bacteria. The process is characterised by applying a hydraulic retention time in a continuously operated reactor, which is shorter than the sludge retention time as a result of part of the sludge being separated from the reactor effluent and being returned to the reactor. The performance of the nitrification is further improved by applying low oxygen and nitrite concentrations.

Title: Vehicle window pane and vehicle door structure incorporating the same
Inventor: YOSHIZAWA HIDEO
IPC: B32B17/10
Filed: 2000-06-02
Abstract: Vehicle window pane ( 16 ) has an arcuately curved vertical section having a single or same radius of curvature (R 1 ) and a curved lateral section having a single radius of curvature (R 2 ) or a compound radius of curvature. The single radius of curvature (R 1 ) in the curved vertical section and the single radius of curvature (R 2 ) and the compound radius of curvature in the curved lateral section are chosen to differ from each other. The vehicle window pane ( 16 ) constitutes a bidirectionally curved pane, which is neither a spherically curved pane (because the radii of curvature in the vertical and lateral sections are not equal to each other) nor a cylindrically curved pane (because both of the radii of curvature in the vertical and lateral sections are not infinite). With this arrangement, the vehicle window pane can significantly improve an aesthetic appeal of a motor vehicle employing the window pane.

Title: Nondestructive acoustic method and device, for the determination of detachments of mural paintings
Inventor: CANNELLI GIOVANNI BOSCO
IPC: G01N29/44
Filed: 2000-06-13
Abstract: Nondesstrutive acoustic method for the detection of detachments in fresco paintings and generally in mural paintings, which uses as detachment physical indicator, the acoustic absorption coefficient. In the present method, the acoustic source (1) and the detector (2) are placed at a certain distance from the paintings. The use of the "Cepstrum" technique allows to carry out the mearsurements also in presence of background noise, and without knowledge of the value of the direct signal pd(t), which should be substracted from the detection signal p(t) in order to obtain the reflected signal pr(t). A microprocessor contained in the device used for the mearsurements, performs the necessary calculations to automatically determine the acoustic energy absorption on predetermined points of the painting surface. By means of an image processing of the so obtained values, bidimensional and tridimensional acoustic images are formed for representing the detachments or separation zones of the painting.
