Abstract:
A method for optical resolution of a DL-amino acid comprising reacting the DL-amino acid with an optically active N-acyl aspartic acid in a solvent or mixture of solvents, and separating the resulting two diasteromeric salts by way of the difference between their solubilities in the solvent or mixture of solvents. The difference in solubility may be enhanced by cooling, concentration, addition of a solubility-decreasing organic solvent, pH adjustment or salting out.
Abstract:
An image processing apparatus that is capable of displaying a WEB top button without deteriorating the quality of appearance even if the display size of the WEB top button is changed. A display unit displays a button, to which a URL is assigned, on an operation screen. An acquisition unit accesses a Web server that is identified by the URL and to acquire a plurality of icons in different sizes. The display unit selects an icon, which corresponds to a display size of the button, from among the icons acquired by the acquisition unit, and displays the selected icon together with the button.

Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a frequency control apparatus includes an eccentric component storage module, a frequency correction amount calculating module, and an oscillator control module. The eccentric component storage module stores in advance an eccentric component calculated by a discrete Fourier transform of the number of clock signals measured for each servo frame. The frequency correction amount calculating module calculates the number of clock signals corresponding to the servo frame based on the eccentric component stored in the eccentric component storage module and calculates a frequency correction amount corresponding to the servo frame based on the number of clock signals. The oscillator control module controls the operation of a frequency oscillator such that a frequency for oscillating a clock signal in the frequency oscillator is adjusted according to the frequency correction amount calculated by the frequency correction amount calculating module.
Abstract:
A position sensor detects a position of an objective lens for irradiating light onto an optical disk. An output adjustment of the position sensor is used for correcting characteristics change due the change with the passage of time. The position of an objective lens and the output of a position sensor are measured at a reference time, the ratio at the neutral point is determined in advance, and when the device is used, the position of the objective lens and the output of the position sensor are measured. The output level at the neutral point during using the device is calculated from the measurement result and the ratio at the neutral point.
