Abstract: A method for the identification of agents that inhibit melanin biosynthesis involves the incubation of test samples in cultures of a fungus that produces melanin. Observation of altered pigmentation in the culture or culture area containing test sample indicates inhibition of melanin biosynthesis. Preferred cultures for the screen contain a fungus that pigments in the light or the dark such as Cladosporium cucumerinum. Preferred embodiments employ test samples on disks or in wells in solidified cultures and a known melanin synthesis inhibitor as a positive control which is compared to the test sample by simple visual inspection.

Abstract: The perception of speech processed by a CELP based coder, such as a VSELP coder, when operating in noisy background conditions is improved by removing swirl artifacts during silence periods. This is done by removing the low frequency components of the input signal when no speech is detected. A speech activity detector distinguishes between a periodic signal, like speech, and a non-periodic signal, like noise by using most of the VSELP coder internal parameters to determine the speech or non-speech conditions. To prevent the VSELP coder from determining pitches for non-periodic signals, a high pass filter is applied to the input signal to remove the pitch information for which the VSELP coder searches. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Le limnimètre qui fonctionne au moyen de micro-ondes, contient une antenne destinée à émettre des ondes en direction de la surface d'un contenant dont il faut mesurer le niveau de remplissage, ainsi qu'à recevoir les ondes réfléchies à la surface. Le limnimètre contient également un circuit de réception et d'évaluation qui fournit, à partir des ondes d'écho reçues par l'antenne, une fonction d'écho représentant les amplitudes d'écho en fonction de la distance, et qui détermine à partir de la fonction d'écho le temps de propagation des micro-ondes depuis l'antenne jusqu'à la surface du contenant et à partir de là, la distance entre la surface du contenant et l'antenne. Afin de détecter la présence de sédiments du contenant sur l'antenne, ainsi que d'autres perturbations comme par ex. l'endommagement ou la perte de l'antenne, le limnimètre contient une configuration qui compare une section de la fonction d'écho provenant d'un point de réflexion de référence situé dans l'antenne ou dans une zone très proche, à une valeur-seuil prédéfinie, et génère un signal qui indique si la valeur-seuil n'a pas été atteinte ou bien si elle a été dépassée. Le point de réflexion de référence peut être formé par une partie de l'antenne ou par un réflecteur de référence séparé, placé dans l'antenne ou dans une zone très proche de l'antenne.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for determining the nucleotide sequence of a target oligonucleotide. In this method a single-stranded ligation product is prepared which contains a target oligonucleotide-to-be sequenced and an auxiliary oligonucleotide. A primer complementary to a portion of the auxiliary oligonucleotide and having a label covalently attached thereto is annealed to the auxiliary oligonucleotide portion of the ligation product. The primer is extended with chain-extending nucleoside triphosphates and chain-terminating nucleoside triphosphates in the presence of a polymerase to yield a plurality of primer extension products. These extension products are then separated on the basis of their base length; and the nucleoside sequence of the target oligonucleotide is determined from the mobilities of the primer extension products obtained during their separation.
