Abstract:
A method of distinguishing a control solution from a sample in an electrochemical test sensor is performed. The method includes adding a control marker to the control solution. The control solution includes the control marker and analyte. The test sensor includes working and counter electrodes, and a reagent. A potential is applied to the test sensor to oxidize the control marker and the analyte. The resulting electrical current is measured. A potential is applied to the test sensor lower than the other potential in which the potential is sufficient to oxidize the analyte and not the control marker. The resulting electrical current is measured. Determining whether a control solution or a sample is present based on the measured electrical currents. To increase the measured current, a salt may be added to the control solution in an amount sufficient to increase the electrical current by at least 5% as compared to a control solution in the absence of a salt.
Abstract:
A switching device and method for a portable display product includes a screen inserted on a body. A thicker handle is formed on one side of the body. Close to the center of one side of the screen, the handle disposes a main key, which is used most frequently. The side end of the handle is divided into an upper part and a lower part centered around the main key. Each part disposes a key unit, and the upper key unit is used more frequently. A control system disposed inside the body switches a display direction of the screen and function locations of the two key units for the convenience of one-handed operation.
Abstract:
A method for accessing digital image files. The method is applied in a digital image capture device store at least one image file. At least one first image is chosen from the at least one image file. A file level code is set in the at least one first image, and the file level code indicates access authority of the at least one first image file. When the at least one first image is accessed, a second image file is chosen from the at least one first image file. The file level code of the second image file is read, and then the second image file is processed according to the file level code.
Abstract:
The invention herein relates to a pharmaceutical composition containing loratadine and derivatives thereof which is suitable for use in soft capsule dosage forms. A pharmaceutical composition according to the invention comprises loratadine and derivatives thereof in a pharmaceutically effective amount; and a solvent system comprising a mixture of medium chain fatty acids. The loratadine compositions exhibit good solubility and storage stability while maintaining bioavailability of the drug. The compositions also permit high concentrations of solubilized loratadine per total fill volume and thereby permit the use of smaller capsules to deliver the same dosage of drug.
Abstract:
A mobile electronic device. A capture module captures a plurality of static videos and stores the static videos to a memory. A compile module compiles each static video with at least one specific set to generate a plurality of display data and stores the display data to the memory. A play module reads the display data and generates a multimedia data according to the specific set.
Abstract:
A substrate support may include a body; an inner ring disposed about the body; an outer ring disposed about the inner ring forming a first opening therebetween; a first seal ring disposed above the first opening; a shadow ring disposed above the inner ring, extending inward from the outer ring and forming a second opening between the shadow and outer rings; a second seal ring disposed above the second opening; a space at least partially defined by the body and the inner, outer, first, second, and shadow rings; a first gap defined between a processing surface of a substrate when present and the shadow ring; and a plurality of second gaps fluidly coupled to the space; wherein the first gap and the plurality of second gaps are configured such that, when a substrate is present, a gas provided to the space flows out of the space through the first gap.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide apparatuses for vapor depositing tungsten-containing materials, such as metallic tungsten and tungsten nitride. In one embodiment, a processing chamber is provided which includes a lid assembly containing a lid plate, a showerhead, a mixing cavity, a distribution cavity, and a resistive heating element contained within the lid plate. In one example, the resistive heating element is configured to provide the lid plate at a temperature within a range from about 120° C. to about 180° C., preferably, from about 140° C. to about 160° C., more preferably, from about 145° C. to about 155° C. The mixing cavity may be in fluid communication with a tungsten precursor source containing tungsten hexafluoride and a nitrogen precursor source containing ammonia. In some embodiments, a single processing chamber may be used to deposit metallic tungsten and tungsten nitride materials by CVD processes.
