Patent EP-0105413-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MORRIS DAVID LINDSAY
IPC: C12Q1/54
Filed: 1983-09-22
Abstract: A method for detecting cellular material, e.g., microbial cells or debris from ruptured microbial cells, in a liquid test sample by determining flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) in the liquid sample. Comparing the amount of FAD determined in the test sample to that present in a reference sample, e.g., containing no significant amount of relevant cellular material, enables detection of cellular material of interest in the sample. The method is particularly applicable to the detection of microbial contamination in biological fluids and is preferably carried out by measuring FAD with an apo(glucose oxidase) assay composition. Test systems, kits and devices are also provided.

Abstract: An insulated-gate field-effect transistor which may be of a vertical power D-MOS type comprises surface-adjacent source and emitter regions (10 and 15) surrounded in a semiconductor body (1) by a surface-adjacent second region (20) of opposite conductivity type. A third region (30) adjoins the second region and has a lower conductivity-type determining doping concentration. At least a part of these second and third regions is located in a main current path from the source region (10) to a drain (31) of the transistor, and an insulated gate (4) which may be of metal-silicide capacitively controls a conductive channel at least in this part (21) of the second region (20). The emitter region (15) is located at a side of the source region (10) remote from the channel part (21) and is separated therefrom by an intermediate part (22) of the second region (20). The source region is electrically connected to this intermediate part (22), for example by a short-circuiting metal-silicide layer (8). A resistive current path (25) in the second region (20) is present below the emitter region (10) and extends from this intermediate part (22) to a further part (23) of the second region (20) which is electrically connected to the emitter region (15), for example by a short-circuiting metal-silicide layer (9). A source electrode (2) is electrically connected to this further part (23) so as to be electrically connected via the resistive current path (25) to the source region (10). The emitter region (15) serves to modulate the conductivity of the third region (30) and so reduce the drain series resistance of the transistor, by charge-carrier injection from the intermediate part (22) when the source-drain current along the resistive current path (25) is sufficient to forward-bias the intermediate part (22) with respect to the third region (30).

Abstract: A quick connect-disconnect coupling for a fluid conduit structure and method of making same wherein the conduit structure has cam devices 42 for connecting and disconnecting a coupler member 22 and an adapter member 31 comprising the coupling and the cam devices which cooperate during disconnection of the members to provide a disconnecting movement until a particular position is reached at which position the disconnecting movement is reversed and becomes an incremental connecting movement for a predetermined increment before allowing the members to be completely disconnected and in the event fluid under pressure is present in the conduit structure which has the coupler and adapter members connected therein the incremental connecting movement of the cam devices is subjected to resistance by the fluid under pressure with the resistance being transmitted through the cam devices as an opposing force which serves to impede the incremental movement by resisting any opening force applied to the cam devices with such opposing force being detectable and once detected serves as a warning that the pressure of the fluid under pressure must be relieved before completely disconnecting the members.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments enable address translations for a virtual machine in the TLB (translation lookaside buffer) of a CPU to be retained from exiting a SIE (start interpretive execution) instruction to the next SIE entry to interpretive execution for the same guest (virtual machine CPU). Conditions are defined which determine when guest TLB entries must be invalidated. These conditions require invalidation of guest TLB entries only within and on entry to interpretive execution. A single invalidation (34) of guest TLB entries on entry (30) to interpretive execution is required for any number of conditions recognized while a CPU is not in interpretive execution state. For a guest virtual multi-processor (MP) machine, an interlock is provided to allow the use of guest virtual addresses by host instruction simulation and the need for guest TLB invalidation is broadcast to all other real CPUs in a real MP system so that all guest TLBs.on all real CPUs can be invalidated to maintain integrity. No broadcast or interlock is needed for a guest virtual uni-processor (UP) machine.

Abstract: As the number of output circuits in a semiconductor IC (e.g. a LSI or VLSI circuit) increases the chance of many large output circuits operating at a same instant increases, with consequent increased possibility of a malfunction due to induced switching noise. In order to avoid or mitigate this problem, the switching speed of a driving buffer circuit (G1) which drives an output buffer circuit (G2) is controlled. By reducing the switching capacity of the driving circuit (G2), the switching speed of the total circuit (G1 plus G2) is affected but not seriously, whereas noise is decreased very much. The control of the switching capacity of the driving buffer circuit can be performed by master slice technology.

Abstract: @ Disclosed are vaccine compositions for use in developing protective immunity against infection by Plasmodium parasites. Soluble proteinaceous immunogens are isolated from the fluid culture medium of in vitro propagated plasmodial species parasites (e.g., P. falciparum) in mammalian erythrocyte culture supernatant or from washes, including hypotonic washes, of cultured erythrocytes parasitized by plasmodium. immunogens so obtained have molecular weights in the range from about 35,000 daltons to about 85,000 daltons and from about 190,000 to about 210,000 daltons. Two principal immunogens of the invention have molecular weights of about 43,000 and about 54,000 daltons, respectively, while a third has a molecular weight of about 200,000. The water soluble immunogens are administered in a suitable carrier such as isotonic salt solution and in combination with a suitable adjuvant such as saponin or, preferably, aluminum hydroxide. Upon administration to vertebrate animals susceptible to plasmodial infection, vaccines according to the invention provoke immune responses protective against morbidity and mortality caused by, e.g., P. falciparum infection. Disclosed also are procedures for optimization of large scale plasmodial parasite growth in human erythrocyte cultures with accompanying development of late erythrocytic stage parasites in large numbers and optimization of isolatable quantities of culture medium supernatant and wash-derived immunogens.

Abstract: The capacitive proximity sensor can be used as a proximity switch or as a measured-value transducer for measurement and control purposes. It is a complete replacement for capacitive proximity switches based on the conventional principle and is also suitable for dealing with problems which have hitherto primarily been solved by means of inductive proximity switches. However its preferred field of application is: - if a large nominal distance is required (possible switching distance of the experimental design > 300 mm> - if low switching hysteresis is required (switching hysteresis of the experimental design 15 mm at 300 mm switching distance, equivalent to 5% of the nominal distance> - if satisfactory operation is required even with interfering environmental conditions (temperature variations, interference voltages due to contactor switching, air humidity etc.).   It is used in:  - warning and indicating devices  - safety and monitoring problems  - protective and safety measures  - testing and checking functions  - switching, measuring and control operations - rationalisation and automation methods.
