Inventor: MARGAINE SYLVAIN
IPC: G01N21/55
Filed: 2007-07-20
Abstract: Described are a method and an apparatus (1) for detecting and/or quantifying a biological target molecule (2) present on a solid support (6). The method comprises the steps of: 
- providing an optically transparent solid support surface (6) having a refractive index n1, said solid support being in contact with a medium having refractive index n2, whereby n1 > n2, 
- providing a light source (9) to illuminate the target molecule, thereby causing the target molecule to emit light 
- detecting light emitted from the target molecule through said support at an observation angle θ obin  relative to the normal to the said solid support surface in the support, such that 90° > θ obin  > sin -1  (n2/n1). The described set up has particular application in the real time monitoring of PCR amplification kinetics.

Patent EP-1908416-A1 (EP)
Inventor: DOLL KEVIN
IPC: A61B17/072
Filed: 2007-10-02
Abstract: A surgical instrument includes an E-beam firing bar engages the channel and selectively engages the anvil during distal firing movements, wherein the tissue is severed and stapled driven upward from the staple cartridge to form against the anvil. In particular, a wedge integral to the staple cartridge is driven distally by a middle pin of the firing bar to effect stapling. A single lockout of the staple channel responds to the presence of the wedge sled in its unfired position to allow the firing bar to fire. Otherwise, the single lockout prevents firing when the staple cartridge is missing or spent. Further, some versions include an Electroactive Polymer (EAP) actuator that presents an abutting surface, or acts as a trapdoor to a ramped recess in a staple channel to block the firing bar, as an active approach to preventing firing for one or more conditions.

Abstract: A mobile base station device and billing method, which can provide an incentive for use at a specific position, while securing convenience for users, are provided. In a mobile base station device 10, upon installation by an owner, registered user terminal-specific information transmitted from a network N, and installation position information specifying the installation position, are stored. When there is transmission from a portable terminal 30, judgment is made as to whether the user of the portable terminal 30 is a registered user and as to whether transmission is from within a prescribed area; only when these conditions are satisfied, a communication connection is established at a flat rate. By this means, in the mobile base station device 10, an incentive can be provided to users for use in a specific position. Further, billing adjustments are made for use at other than the specific position, but communication service is not completely forbidden, and user convenience is secured.

Title: Générateur d'impulsions implantable indépendant de l'orientation
Inventor: PAYNE DAVID H
IPC: A61N1/378
Filed: 2007-06-27
Abstract: Dispositif médical implantable, tel qu'un générateur d'impulsions implantable, doté d'une structure améliorée. Le dispositif comprend une bobine de charge conçue pour recevoir de l'énergie d'un chargeur externe par induction, sans utiliser de fils. La bobine de charge est placée sensiblement à équidistance de deux côtés plans du boîtier du dispositif. Comme la bobine occupe une position sensiblement équidistante au sein du boîtier du dispositif, l'orientation du dispositif dans le corps du patient n'a pas d'importance, tout au moins sur le plan de l'efficacité de la charge du dispositif par le chargeur externe. La charge ne se trouve donc pas affectée si le dispositif est implanté dans le corps du patient dans une mauvaise orientation, ou s'il se retourne dans le corps du patient après avoir été implanté. De plus, comme la partie centrale du dispositif correspond naturellement à la plus grande dimension latérale à l'intérieur du boîtier en raison des bords incurvés de celui-ci, il est possible d'augmenter la surface de la bobine de charge et donc d'en améliorer le gain vis-à-vis du chargeur externe.
