Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of extracting all metabolites existing in a biological sample to detect a comprehensive difference between metabolites of a control group and a test group, thereby verifying significance thereof. More particularly, the invention comprises a first step of analyzing a fraction extracted with a solid phase extraction method, a fraction obtained by extracting the remnant fraction with a liquid-liquid extraction method and fractions extracted with the liquid-liquid extraction method at two pH different from each other after the hydrolysis, with a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry; a second step of converting the chromatogram result into numerical values capable of being statistically processed; and a third step of analyzing the numerical values with a principal component analysis (PCA) and a discriminant analysis (DA) to detect a difference between the control group and the test group. According to the invention, the difference between the two groups can be comprehensively detected with the areas of the peaks on the chromatogram, without a standard material or verified quantitative method. Therefore, it is possible to detect the metabolic change in the organism due to the disease or gene mutation, without an accurate quantitative analysis of the metabolites.
Abstract:
Integrated processing of multimedia signals can eliminate unnecessary signal processors and converters without losing the functionality of typical home entertainment system components. The integrated system includes a main player that captures and processes signals digitally, a dummy display, and a dummy speaker. The dummy display may only have a display panel and a panel driver. The dummy speaker may only have a driving unit and no crossover logic. The main player may have a PC architecture and process all signals digitally for outputting signals tailored for the display device and the individual driving units of the dummy speaker. The integrated system may generate parameters for optimizing display of a video source. These parameters can be shared among users over a network connection.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a semiconductor laser, having a construction capable of tuning a wavelength, in which a sampled grating distributed feedback SG-DFB structure portion and a sampled grating distributed Bragg reflector SG-DBR structure portion are integrated. In the present invention, the refraction index are varied in accordance with a current applied to the phase control area in the SG-DFB structure portion and the SG-DBR structure portion, whereby it is possible to continuously or discontinuously tune the wavelength. Therefore, in such a wavelength tunable semiconductor laser, its construction is relatively simple, and it is relatively useful to the manufacturing and mass-producing the semiconductor laser. In addition, such a wavelength tunable semiconductor laser has an excellent output optical efficiency while making it possible to tune the wavelength of the wide band.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method for providing a service provider number portability of a mobile phone number in which it is possible to change a mobile phone service provider without changing a mobile directory number (MDN) in a communication environment where the phone service providers use different intelligent network protocols. In the present invention, the intelligent network calls which uses different protocols are processed using a number portability database which supports the multi-protocols in order to change the service provider between the mobile phone service providers in which the mobile phone subscribers use different intelligent protocols. Therefore, since the mobile phone number portability providing method according to the present invention is capable of processing all intelligent network calls transferred from the service providers which use different protocols, it is possible to overcome the problems such as, building additional number portability database in the case that the intelligent network protocols are different, and installing a plurality of protocols in all service switching point in the service provider network. In this way, it becomes possible to decrease the cost of the number portability, and the network operation gets easier if all service providers co-use the number portability database of the mobile phone.
