Abstract: A method of inhibiting the spread, transmission and incidence of disease, infection and asthma and rhinitis allergies, characteristic of hypersensitivity pneumonitis in structures employing forced or induced air ventilation, heating, humidification and air conditioning systems. Microorganisms contribute to the disease and aggravate the condition of allergies or initiate allergic response. In the method, the level of exposure of occupants of the structure to high levels of microorganisms is reduced by treating interior surfaces of the structure with an organosilicon quaternary ammonium compound. The threshold level of airborne microorganisms is lowered with the organosilicon quaternary ammonium compound in order to prevent reinfestation and the intrinsic antimicrobial activity of the treated surfaces is used to kill transient and resident microbes.

Abstract: A decoder circuit comprises a plurality of signal conductors (X₀ - X₇ , DL), first potential setting units (Tpc) for setting a potential of the signal conductors (X₀ - X₇ , DL) to a first potential, second potential setting units (Cs) for maintaining a potential of one signal conductor (X₀ - X₇) at the first potential and bringing a potential of the remaining signal conductors (X₀ - X₇ , DL) to a second potential, and a respective transfer transistor (T₀ - T₇) provided for each signal conductor (X₀ - X₇). A gate electrode of each transfer transistor (T₀ - T₇) is connected to its respective signal conductor (X₀ - X₇), a source electrode thereof is connected to another signal conductor (X₁ - X₇ , DL), and one transfer transistor (T₀ - T₇) is switched ON and a decoded output signal is output when a gate potential of that transfer transistor (T₀ - T₇) is maintained at the first potential and a source potential thereof is brought to the second potential. Therefore, only one output signal conductor (X₀ - X₇) is selected during a decoder operation without using a discharge detecting circuit of a nonselected output signal conductor and a timing signal, and thus an operation speed of the decoder circuit is much higher and the decoding circuit has a simpler construction and is suitable as a large scale integration circuit.

Abstract: A food sample is passed through a time-varying electromagnetic field generated by a transmitter coil (1) whereby a signal is induced in a receiving signal (3) due to the generation of eddy-currents. A balance coil (4) offsets the large voltage induced in the receiving coil (3) by the field alone and thereby improves the sensitivity of detection. A food sample has been found to generate both reactive and resistive components which can be detected by respective phase detectors (5,6) that supply digital values to microprocessor (9) and the reactive and resistive components can be used to provide a measure of freshness or ripening of e.g. vegetable matter. Adjustments for variations in the cross-sectional area of the sample are made with regard to a factor K r  which relates to the reactive and resistive components.

Abstract: An exhaust gas purification system for an internal combustion engine includes a catalyst (4, 21A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F) installed in an exhaust conduit of an engine (2, 1A, 1B, 1D, 1E, 1F) and constructed of zeolite carrying at least one kind of metal selected from transition metals and noble metals to reduce nitrogen oxides included in the exhaust gas from the engine under an oxidizing gas condition and in the presence of hydrocarbons. The system further includes means for repeating a cycle of cooling the catalyst (4, 21A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F) and then stopping the cooling to allow the catalyst to rise in temperature so that the temperature rising courses of the catalyst are positively and repeatedly produced. Since the catalyst can show a higher nitrogen oxides reducing ability in the temperature rising course than in the temperature lowering course, the NOx purification rate is greatly improved due to the positive production of the temperature rising courses.

Abstract: A probe (1) for use in an apparatus for effecting information reading and/or information input on an information carrier member by closely positioning the probe thereto is formed by the following manner. An electrode (3,31,14) is placed to a portion of the probe where the end portion (4) is to be formed distance information between the end portion forming part of the probe and the electrode is detected. The relative position of the end portion forming part of the probe to the electrode is controlled on the basis of the detection result. A voltage is applied to the end portion forming part of the probe through the electrode under the relative position control, thereby forming the end portion of the probe. 
     This probe forming method can be applied to an information reading and/or inputting apparatus. By re-forming the end of the probe, the deterioration of the performance in the apparatus due to the damage of the probe can be prevented to thereby obtain a high reliable performance.

Abstract: An interface device (210), for thermally coupling an integrated circuit chip (212) to a heat sink (214), comprises a first material (216) characterized by high thermal conductivity, such as copper, wherein the copper (216) completely surrounds a plurality of inner core regions. The plurality of inner core regions contain a low coefficient of thermal expansion material (218) and are primarily disposed in the copper material (216) in the region directly under the integrated circuit chip (212). Therefore, the low expansion regions retard thermal expansion of the interface device (210) during exposure to variations in the temperature, yet there are continuous paths of copper provided between the integrated circuit chip (212) and heat sink (214) so as to promote efficient heat transfer between the integrated circuit chip (212) to the heat sink (214) through the high conductivity copper (216). In addition, a dielectric layer (228) is provided between said integrated circuit chip (212) and heat sink (214), when necessary, using this invention. This interface device (210) is characterized by enhanced thermal dissipation yet provides a compatible coefficient of thermal expansion with the silicon integrated circuit chip (212) and underlying heat sink (214).
