Abstract: A technique which is less likely to be affected by turbid or color of samples and with which prompt and simple detection or concentration measurement of endotoxin can be achieved is provided. A reagent in which proteins contained in LAL are adsorbed or bound onto fine particles dispersed in a previously prepared drug liquid is prepared, and this reagent and a sample containing endotoxin are mixed. By doing this, endotoxin acts on the proteins on the fine particles and the fine particles are associated with one another to form a large aggregate at an early stage. By optically measuring the formation of this aggregate, detection or concentration measurement of endotoxin is performed.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a method for making a healthy snack food having an appearance and taste similar to conventional fried snack products without the use of an oil-frying process. The method of the present invention includes the steps of providing food slices from a starch-based food or dough. The food slices can be blanched and a controlled amount of oil can be added to enhance final organoleptical properties. The food slices are then rapidly dehydrated to a much lower moisture content in a primary drying step that simulates conventional frying dehydration rates. A food snack, such as a corn or potato-based snack, produced by this method is a low-fat, ready-to-eat snack having the conventional texture and taste associated with fried snack products.

Another embodiment allows these measurements to be performed and used without resulting in display artifacts visible to a human user.  Another embodiment allows the measurement circuitry to be integrated with the display driver IC and/or the display drive scheme re-using several existing circuitry components and features, thus allowing for integration of the measurement method and its use relatively easily.
Patent CA-2717408-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GOROKHOV ALEXEI Y
IPC: H04W52/00
Filed: 2009-03-11
Abstract: In a wireless communication system, short-term interference mitigation may be used to mitigate (e.g., to avoid or reduce) interference on a given link in order to improve performance of data transmission. The interference mitigation reduces transmit power of interfering transmissions so that a higher signal-to-noise-and-interference ratio (SINR) can be achieved for a desired data transmission. A  node may observe high interference from an interfering node that degrades performance of data transmission sent on that link. By taking advantage of an communication path with the interfering node (e.g., wireless data/control channel, backhaul network connection, or analog broadcast signal), the transmitting node can successfully complete time critical communications while allowing the interfering node to also simultaneously communicate without reducing overall resources nor burdening any managing nodes.

Title: Apparatus and methods for establishing client-host associations within a wireless network
Inventor: SHETH SOHAM V
IPC: H04W72/04
Filed: 2009-04-03
Abstract: In embodiments, a one-to-one association is established be-tween a client and a host in a wireless network, such as a wireless local area network or a wireless personal communication network. The client may be a display device. The host may be a cellular telephone. Active association cor-responds to the host exclusively using a shared resource of the client.  When the association is solid, requests from other hosts to establish an active asso-ciation are denied. When the association is fragile, such requests are granted.  In the case of a semi-solid association, a request from another host to estab-lish an active association causes the client to generate a query to the host currently owning the active association. If the host currently owning the as-sociation grants a release, a new active association is established between the requesting host and the client. Otherwise, the request from the other host is denied.
