A method and an apparatus for liquid safety-detection by backscattering with a radiation source are provided that relate to a radiation detecting technology field. The invention comprises using a radiation source, a collimator, a detector, a data collector and a computer data processor, and has the main steps of: 1) placing a liquid article to be detected onto a rotatable platform; 2) emitting a ray from the radiation source, said ray causing Compton scattering at the surface of the liquid after passing through the package layer of the liquid article; 3) the scattering photons being received by the detector after passing the collimator; 4) the detector transmitting the received data to the data collector; and 5) the data collector transmitting the amplified and shaped data to the computer data processor, which processes the data to obtain the liquid density of the detected article, then compares the result with the densities of dangerous articles in a current database, and gives a warning if the density of the detected article is consistent with that of a dangerous article. Compared to the prior art, the invention is convenient to use, detects rapidly and accurately, has a strong anti-interference, is very safe and reliable to use, and protection is easy.
摘要:
A sensor, and methods of making, for determining the concentration of an analyte, such as glucose, in a biological fluid such as blood or serum, using techniques such as coulometry, amperometry, and potentiometry. The sensor includes a working electrode and a counter electrode, and may include an insertion monitoring trace to determine correct positioning of the sensor in a connector. The sensor is calibration-adjusted, eliminating the need for a user to enter a calibration code or for the meter to read a calibration code.

A method for synchronously implementing media switch in gateways used for IP FAX is disclosed. The method comprises sending a message for notification of fax event from a media gateway which firstly detects a fax event to the other media gateway of the fax event; implementing a media switch in the media gateway which firstly detects the fax event into fax mode; implementing a media switch in the other media gateway of the fax event into fax mode after receiving said message for notification of fax event. Therefore, the method of the invention overcomes the disadvantages of the related art and more particularly prevents fax failure due to difference of routing for a born network and cross-domain. The IP FAX used by the method of the invention can be applied broadly as the method also improves compatibility and reliability for IP FAX

One aspect of the present invention relates to quinine-based and quinidine-based catalysts. In certain embodiments, the quinine-based and quinidine-based catalysts contain a hydroxy group at the 6′ position. In certain embodiments, the quinine-based and quinidine-based catalysts contain an O-aryl group or an O-aroyl group at the C9 position. In certain embodiments, the quinine-based and quinidine-based catalysts contain an optionally substituted O-diazene group or an optionally substituted O-benzoyl group at the C9 position. In certain embodiments, the quinine-based and quinidine-based catalysts contain a thiourea at the C9 position. In certain embodiments, the quinine-based and quinidine-based catalysts contain an NH(═S)NH-aryl group at the C9 position. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a method of preparing a chiral, non-racemic compound from a prochiral electron-deficient alkene or prochiral imine, comprising the step of: reacting a prochiral alkene or imine with a nucleophile in the presence of a catalyst; thereby producing a chiral, non-racemic compound; wherein said catalyst is a derivatized quinine or quinidine. In certain embodiments, the nucleophile is a malonate or β-ketoester. In certain embodiments the nucleophile is an alkyl or aryl or aralkyl 2-cyano-2-alkylacetate. In certain embodiments the nucleophile is an alkyl or aryl or aralkyl 2-cyano-2-alkylacetate. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a method of kinetic resolution, comprising the step of: reacting a racemic aldehyde or racemic ketone with a nucleophile in the presence of a derivatized quinine or quinidine, thereby producing a non-racemic, chiral compound. In certain embodiments, the kinetic resolution is dynamic.

An efficient navigator method is presented that substantially increases the scan efficiency while maintaining the motion suppression effectiveness in magnetic resonance imaging. The method is achieved by simultaneously acquiring different image volumes at different motion states of the subject being scanned. A scheduling algorithm is used to assign volumes to position bins of a motion histogram of the subject. The motion histogram is periodically updated and the volumes are reassigned to position bins.

Novel chimeric fusion proteins comprising immunodominant epitopes of GAD and insulin are provided. Also provided are immunomodulatory methods for the use of such proteins for both the prevention and treatment of Type 1 diabetes mellitus. The chimeric fusion proteins of the invention are useful in predicting risk of onset of Type I diabetes, determining prognosis of Type 1 diabetes patients early in disease progression, and in evaluating patients for suitability as recipients of transplants of pancreatic cells or tissues. The administration of the proteins of the invention in accordance with the immunomodulatory methods of the invention results in beneficial effects on disease development and severity in patients suffering from or predicted to be at risk of developing Type 1 diabetes, as well as on the outcome of transplants of pancreatic cells or tissues in Type I diabetes patients
摘要:
The invention provides a method of bonding wire between first and second bonding points with a bonding tool, such as a capillary. It comprises the steps of forming a first bond at the first bonding point with the bonding tool, moving the bonding tool away from the first bond by a first distance, then moving the bonding tool towards the first bonding point and coupling the wire to the first bond. Thereafter, the bonding tool is moved away from the first bond by a second distance and a kink is formed in the wire. The bonding tool is subsequently moved to extend a sufficient length of wire to form a wire loop between the first and second bonding points before the bonding tool is moved to the second bonding point to form a second bond. Characteristics of wire bonds formable using the method of the invention are also disclosed.
