Patent EP-1130111-A2 (EP)
Inventor: OUYANG TIANMEI
IPC: G01N33/50
Filed: 2001-02-23
Abstract: A reagent is suitable for measuring the concentration
of an analyte in a hemoglobin-containing biological fluid,
such as whole blood. The reagent comprises a flavin-dependent
enzyme that has specificity for the analyte, a
flavin cofactor if, and only if, a flavin is not bound to
the enzyme, a tetrazolium dye precursor, an electron
transfer agent, and a nitrite salt. The reagent causes
dye formation that is a measure of the analyte
concentration. The nitrite salt suppresses interfering
dye formation caused non-enzymatically by the hemoglobin.
Preferably, the reagent is used in a dry strip for
measuring glucose in whole blood.

Abstract: The present invention is a new method for forming a high density hard facing rod. The
rod is particularly suitable for hardfacing downhole tools including both fixed cutter
and rolling cutter drill bits, bias pads for downhole rotary steerable systems, and
stabilizers, and for other types of tools requiring strong and wear resistant hardfacings.
The method includes the steps of: preparing a powder mix comprising carbide and
metal powders, a fugitive binder, and other additives to render a moldable rheology;
forming the powder mix into a powder core encased with a metal sheath to form a core-sheath
assembly; and isostatically compacting the core-sheath assembly to densify the
core to at least 65% of theoretical density and mechanically attach the sheath. The core
fugitive binder along with residual volatile constituents may be thermally removed
with or without vacuum, reducing, or inert environment prior to weld application of the
composite rod.

Abstract: Two data communication platforms are operating as a combination. In one embodiment, a data signal formatted according to a data communication protocol is received at a first data communication platform. The first data communication platform operates to determine if the data communication protocol is supported by the first data communication platform. If it is determined that the data communication protocol is supported by the first data communication platform, the first data communication platform indicates to a second data communication platform to receive the data signal at a by-pass path of a filter engine. As a result, fast data signal communication capabilities of protocols developed and implemented as ASICs are combined with the flexibility in developing and adding new protocols implemented as software needed by more complex networked computer devices. In one embodiment, a second data signal formatted according to a second data communication protocol is received at the first data communication platform. The first data communication platform operates to determine if the second data communication protocol is supported by the second data communication platform. If it is determined that the data communication protocol is supported by the second data communication platform, the first data communication platform indicates to the second communication platform to receive the data signal at a filter engine path of the filter engine.

IPC: B01D59/44

Abstract: Matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization is performed in a manner to
thermalize large analyte ions in a plume of desorbed material for spectroscopic analysis. The
thermalized ions have a low or zero mean velocity and are presented at a well-defined instant
in time, reducing artifacts and sharpening the spectral peaks. In one embodiment the light
is delivered to a matrix or sample holder having a cover, baffle or compartment. The baffle
or compartment impedes or contains a plume of desorbed material and the analyte undergoes
collisions to lower its mean velocity and directionality. Thus "thermalized" the analyte ions
are passed to a mass analysis instrument. In a preferred embodiment an optical fiber butts
up against a thin transparent plate on which the specimen resides, with the matrix side in a
vacuum acceleration chamber. A mechanical stage moves the specimen in both the x- and
y- directions to select a point on the specimen which is to receive the radiation. The use of
a fiber optic illuminator allows the entire stage assembly to be subsumed essentially within
the dimensions of a conventional stage. In other embodiments, a thermalizing compartment
is provided in a capillary tube about the end of the illumination fiber and the sample matrix
is deposited along the inner cylindrical wall of the tube, so the capillary forms a migration
path to the outlet for thermalization of the desorbed analyte. In other embodiments
microstructures having the shape of a small lean-to, overhang or perforated cover plate, or
providing a high aspect surface texture, provide the necessary containment to promote
thermalization of the released analyte. A thin layer or cover of fibrous or permeable material
may also be used to thermalize the analyte before mass analysis, and in another embodiment
this material may also act as the substrate. An automated instrument may include a fixed
array of illumination fibers which are illuminated at different times to eject samples from a
corresponding array of points on the specimen.
