Date Jan. 9, 1997Vinyl sulfides bearing protected arlyoxy substituents and a process for their preparation are provided. In the process a vinyl sulfide is formed by coupling a ketone compound and a thioester compound with a low valent titanium reagent to form both carbon-carbon bonds in the same step. The vinyl sulfide compounds are useful as intermediates which are convertible into triggerable sulfur-substituted dioxetanes by addition of oxygen to the double bond. The sulfur-substituted dioxetanes additionally are useful for producing chemiluminescence or for further conversion into triggerable alkoxy, alkenyloxy, alkynloxy, aryloxy, aralkyloxy, or acyloxy-substituted dioxetanes. Triggerable dioxetanes are useful for producing chemiluminescence and in detecting activating agents in assays such as immunoassays and nucleic acid hybridization assays.

Title: Multiple-pulse method and apparatus for use in oximetry
Inventor: PROSSER STEPHEN J
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 1987-08-18
Abstract: The disclosed invention is for use in extracting more accurate information from signals employed in pulse oximetry. Basically, pulse oximetry involves the illumination of arterial blood flowing in tissue with light at two wavelengths. Upon emerging from the tissue the light is received by a detector (38) that produces signals that are proportional to the intensity of the light received at each of the wavelengths. Each signal includes a slowly varying baseline component representing the attenuation  beta (t) of light produced by bone, tissue, skin, and hair. The signals also include pulsatile components representing the attenuation  alpha (t) produced by the changing blood volume and oxygen saturation within the finger. The signals produced by the detector (38) are converted by an analog-to-dig                      ital (A/D) converter (72) for subsequent analysis by a microcomputer (16). The microcomputer (16) extracts the following information from the signal corresponding to each wavelength. V H is determined to be the signal magnitude at a second pulse diastole. V L is, similarly, the signal magnitude at systole of the same pulse. A term  DELTA V is identified equal in value to the difference in signal magnitudes at the adjacent systoles. Finally, values are determined for  DELTA ts and  DELTA tp, being the interval between an adjacent systole and diastole and the pulse period, respectively. The microcomputer (16) then determines a value for R OS in accordance with the relationship: <MATH> Empirically derived oxygen saturation curves are used to develop an indication of the oxygen saturation from the value of R OS computed.
