Abstract: A method of detecting and measuring phosphorus in samples is disclosed. The measurement of phosphorylation is made with an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS), coupled to a reactive collision cell. The reactive collision cell is employed to ensure interference-free detection of phosphorus ions, by the formation of product ions with a different mass to charge ratio.  Accurate measurement of phosphorylation in samples is important in proteomics.

Granted: 2010-05-04
Abstract: The present invention provides an antioxidative composition with high safety, which is capable of lessening oxidative stress due to active oxygen species, free radicals, or the like in vivo, thereby preventing the occurrence or worsening of a disease.     It was confirmed that by using a composition containing oxidized coenzyme Q and/or reduced coenzyme Q, the amount of urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyquanosine can be decreased in normal or diabetic animals. Also, in histopathological research of the spleens of diabetic rats, it was confirmed that spleen tissue denaturation caused by oxidative stress can be prevented. It was thus found that oxidative stress in vivo can be lessened.     According to the present invention, oxidative stress in vivo can be lessened by using a composition containing coenzyme Q as an active ingredient.

Granted: 2008-08-05
Abstract: A well logging tool (10) has a neutron source (16) for irradiating formation surrounding a borehole. Two detectors (20,22) are mounted in a spaced-apart vertical relationship within the tool pressure-resistant housing (12). Each detector detects capture gamma radiation across the entire gamma ray energy spectrum, windows are set in this spectrum to separate two distinct energy ranges, thereby generating a total of four independent sets of signals, two for each detector. One set of signals is indicative of the hydrogen content and insensitive to the chlorine content of the irradiated formation. The second set of signals is indicative of the hydrogen plus the chlorine content of the irradiated formation. By comparing the sets of signals in two proportional energy ranges, the logging tool allows to generate a log that helps determine the presence or absence of hydrocarbon or salt water in the formation.

Granted: 2007-12-11
Abstract: A feedforward control method for an absorption chiller includes determining the disturbance transfer function, determining the capacity valve transfer function, measuring the actual disturbance, and implementing the feedforward control function in a feedforward controller. The feedforward control function is represented by the ratio of the disturbance transfer function divided by the capacity valve transfer function. The disturbance transfer function and the capacity valve transfer function are measured by applying a known amplitude input perturbation to the disturbance or capacity valve and recording the resulting perturbation in the output leaving chilled water temp.  The disturbance transfer function is then the ratio of the delta leaving chilled water temperature divided by the delta change in the disturbance. The capacity transfer function is the ratio of the delta leaving chilled water temperature divided by the delta change in the capacity valve.
