Abstract: A gas analyzer arrangement for detecting the presence or quantity of a gas of interest includes a source of electromagnetic radiation (52) for directing a light beam through a light conditioning device (54) such that the light beam is collimated into a parallel beam of light. The conditioned light beam is then directed through a gas sample cell (58) which contains a sample of the gas of interest. The gas of interest has associated therewith, vibrational rotational absorption lines specific to that gas and which are effective for altering the light beam according to the absorption characteristics thereof. The altered light beam is then directed to a birefringent etalon device (64) which has been sized specifically to match those absorption lines of the gas of interest. An electro-optical modulator device (68) associated with the birefringent etalon modulates the absorption lines between the transmission spectra maxima and a point between the transmission spectra maxima so that an absorption ratio can be utilized to determine the presence or quantity of the gas of interest.

Title: Detection and quantitative determination of rna and dna

Filed: 1989-11-21
Granted: 1993-09-01
Abstract: The method for the detection and/or quantitative determination of target RNA or DNA in an analyte sample includes the steps of: a) contacting the analyte with magnetic particles carrying a single stranded 5'-attached DNA probe capable of binding to said RNA or DNA; b) contacting the magnetic particles with an aqueous solution of a reverse transcriptase or polymerase in the presence of labelled nucleotides using the probe as a primer whereby labelled complementary single stranded DNA is formed if said RNA or DNA was present in said analyte; magnetically aggregating the magnetic particles onto a surface and removing said solution; and c) detecting the presence or absence of said label and/or determining the amount of said label. The chain length of complementary single stranded DNA is limited by, for example a predetermined amount of dideoxynucleotides being present at step (b) to limit chain synthesis to a predetermined average length or the probe binding to said DNA or RNA a predetermined distance from a chain terminating point of said DNA or RNA. A kit for performing the method is disclosed.

Abstract: An optical fibre cable has an optical fibre with a core and cladding embraced by a cover of polymer material. In a temperature detection range (T1-T2) the polymer material has a negative coefficient of heat expansion ( alpha 0), the absolute value of which is larger than the coefficient of heat expansion ( alpha ) in neighbouring temperature ranges (T0-T1, T2-T3). When subjected to an increase in temperature (T), the cover will contract and cause microbending of the optical fibre. Light travelling in the fibre is attenuated and reflected, and the reflected light will be attenuated further in a heated domain of the fibre. The size of the domain and its position along the fibre can be determined by measuring the running time of the light. The polymer cover has a coefficient of heat expansion such as to enable several heated domains to be detected. The fibre attenuates the light in a range of 0.01-0.1 dB/m in the heated state of the fibre.

Abstract: A joint by electric welding includes a main body, in the proximity of the joining surface of which a magnetic alloy material continuing in its axial direction is embedded. In the part to form a cold zone on the outer surface of the main body, a shielding member is provided. The joining surface of the main body is brought into contact with the one of the member to be joined. In this status, when a high frequency current is applied to the magnetic alloy material by electromagnetic induction, the magnetic alloy material generates heat, and the main body is joined by fusing to the member to be joined. Since the shielding member shields the magnetic alloy material from electromagnetic waves, the material doesn't generate heat, and the cold zone is formed in the part thereof.

Abstract: A circuit arrangement for dynamic control of a speech communication terminal, comprising a compander function, is specified. Instead of analog circuits for dynamic expanders and compressors, use is made of a digital signal processor (DSP), which assigns on the basis of a pre-stored characteristic curve (KL) to the individual level mean values of the input signal gain factors, which are fed to the amplifier (VS) arranged in the transmitting branch of the terminal. The stored characteristic curve may be displaced in a manner dependent on a noise mean value or dependent on a reception mean value obtained from the sidetone signal, or be replaced by another characteristic line. In this case the effect of a change in gain in the transmitting branch on the sidetone signal entering via the receiving branch is compensated. In a further development, the circuits supplying the level mean values are also replaced by the digital signal processor, which uses subroutines to execute the functions assigned to these circuits. <IMAGE>
