Patent EP-0253872-A4 (EP)
Inventor: PASSARO ROBERT EUGENE
IPC: G01N21/31
Filed: 1987-01-09
Abstract: Un appareil de remise à zéro automatique remet automatiquement à zéro un analyseur de gaz aux infra-rouges lorsque des conditions présélectionnées se produisent, afin d'indiquer l'état zéro en cas d'absorption nulle des rayonnements infra-rouges par un mélange de gaz en cours d'analyse. L'analyseur de gaz comprend une cellule d'échantillonage (11) qui contient un mélange de gaz que l'on veut analyser. Les rayonnements infra-rouges envoyés à travers la cellule d'échantillonnage (11) sont détectés à une longueur d'onde présélectionnée afin de produire un signal de détection. Un processeur de signaux sort des signaux systématiquement associés à la différence entre le signal de détection et un signal de référence. Pour la remise à zéro, la cellule d'échantillonnage (11) est remplie d'un gaz sensiblement non-absorbant des rayonnements infra-rouges à la longueur d'onde caractéristique respective. Un comparateur génère un signal d'erreur lorsque le signal de sortie diffère de zéro. Une commande de gain (DAC 21) commande automatiquement le niveau des signaux de détection afin de réduire le signal de sortie sensiblement à zéro lorsque le gaz non-absorbant remplit la cellule d'échantillonnage (11). Les conditions présélectionnées peuvent inclure l'écoulement d'une période de temps prédéterminée et une dérive de la température au-delß de limites prédéterminées.

Title: Microwave landing system for use on a back course approach.
Inventor: CHISHOLM JOHN P
IPC: G01S1/56
Filed: 1987-10-07
Abstract: Independent guidance and monitoring integrated into an MLS landing system and a scaled-down MLS take-off or missed approach guidance system useable at small airports. An added fixed beam precision guidance system is integrated into the MLS time sequence format. The fixed beam guidance system is based upon the concept of using paired fixed overlapping beams, sequentially radiated by different fixed antennas (80 and 81), oriented to left and right of a prescribed guidance path. The paired beams overlap at the prescribed guidance path in such a manner that an aircraft departing or making a missed approach on such path will intercept equal signal intensities to indicate an on-course condition. Conversely, when the aircraft is off-course to one side of the prescribed path, it will intercept a stronger signal intensity for the fixed guidance beam which is directed to that side of the prescribed path and a weaker signal intensity for the fixed beam which is directed to the other side of the prescribed path.

Title: Disk recording and reproducing apparatus
Inventor: TAKI HIDESHI - SUGIYAMATE -CHO
IPC: G11B20/10
Filed: 1991-10-03
Abstract: A disk recording and reproducing apparatus which records and reproduces input signals converted into a digital form by using a disk-like recording medium. By combining the recording/reproducing mode in the tracking mode and the track jump operation together, signals are recorded at a constant linear velocity at all times independent of the input data rate. That is, after the recording of the selector is finished, an instruction (108) of a track jump to one track before is given to a tracking control means (6), and an optical head (5) is driven by a tracking control output (106) so as to make a jump onto a track which is on the inside by one track. Thus the operation of the apparatus is changed to the reproduction mode. Therefore, without vacant area in the disk, the data can be continuously recorded in time series. Moreover, simultaneously monitoring to maintain the reliability of the recorded data, or the re-recording function corresponding on the error conditions are easily realized by effecting similar track jump control. <IMAGE>

Title: Methods for diabetes susceptibility assessment in asymptomatic patients
Inventor: BAEKKESKOV STEINUNN
IPC: G01N33/564
Filed: 1994-04-08
Abstract: Assays for identifying human patients at risk for developing insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus rely on detection of autoantibodies to a 38 kD autoantigen present in pancreatic beta-cells in patient sera. It has been found that autoantibodies to this particular autoantigen developed in patients well before clinical onset of the disease in a significant subpopulation of prediabetic patients. Useful assays will frequently combine detection of autoantibodies to the 38 kD autoantigen with detection of other known markers of IDDM, such as autoantibodies to a 64 kD autoantigen (glutamic acid decarboxylase).

Title: Compositions for the detection of enzyme activity in biological samples and methods of use thereof
Inventor: KOMORIYA AKIRA
IPC: C12N5/071
Filed: 1998-02-20
Abstract: The present invention provides for novel reagents whose fluorescence increases in the presence of particular proteases. The reagents comprise a characteristically folded peptide backbone conjugated to two fluorophores such that the fluorophores are located opposite sides of a cleavage site. When the folded peptide is cleaved, as by digestion with a protease, the fluorophores provide a high intensity fluorescent signal at a visible wavelength. Because of their high specificity and their high fluorescence signal in the visible wavelengths, these protease indicators are particularly well suited for detection of protease activity in biological samples, in particular in frozen tissue sections. Thus this invention also provides for methods of detecting protease activity in situ in frozen sections.

Title: Method and system for measurement of macular carotenoid levels
Inventor: BERNSTEIN PAUL S
IPC: A61B3/12
Filed: 1998-03-11
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a new and useful method and apparatus for use in determining the levels of macular pigments in the tissue of live subjects. Specifically, the method and apparatus of the present invention provide a non-invasive, rapid, and objective determination of the macular carotenoid levels, and in turn, offer valuable diagnostic information applicable to large populations. The present invention measures the levels of macular carotenoid pigments, as well as other retinal materials. Monochromatic laser light is projected onto a retina, preferably in the macular area. A very sensitive detection system then detects light scattered from the retina. The majority of the light is scattered elastically at the same wavelength of the laser in a manner known as Rayleigh scattering. A very small fraction of laser light is scattered inclastically at a wavelength different from that of the laser in a manner known as Raman scattering. The Raman scattered light is selected and then routed to a detection system, wherein the results are calibrated against actual standards for the particular retinal material being tested.
