摘要:
Hepatoma up-regulated protein (HURP) gene serves as a useful molecular marker in the detection, preliminary screening and monitoring of bladder cancer in a human subject. A method for the detection of bladder cancer, in particular transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder, in a human subject is disclosed, in which the detected expression of the human HURP gene in a sample taken from a subject suspected to have bladder cancer is indicative of the presence of the bladder cancer. The present invention further provides a non-invasive method for the detection, preliminary screening or monitoring of urinary TCC in a suspected subject, in which a urine sample taken from the subject is analyzed to determine an expression of the human HURP gene, the presence of which is indicative of the presence of urinary TCC.

A video surveillance system gets a first image from at least a video source, and extracts its image features. It embeds annotation information with at least the image features into the first image, and converts the embedded image into a second image without changing the image format. After having compressed and decompressed the second image, the system extracts the embedded information from the decompressed embedded stream to separate the image and the annotation information, thereby obtaining completely recovered annotation information after a recovery process and an image processing. Because the image format is not changed, the operations on the second image at the rear end of the system, such as compression and decompression, are not affected.

A system and method for voice quality analysis include the ability to receive packets in a voice stream and to generate a receipt indicator for the packets. The system and method also include the ability to substitute a reference voice sample for the voice data in the packets and to compare the voice data in the voice-substituted packets to the reference voice sample to determine voice quality.

A disposal apparatus for biosensor includes a coupling member and a capsular wrapper. The capsular wrapper includes a space having a closed end and an open end to hold a biosensor. The coupling member has a coupling portion connecting to the closed end and a test strip adapter with two ends respectively formed a test strip insertion end and a test strip extended slot. The test strip insertion end passes through the slot and inserts into a test strip loading port of the biosensor. The capsular wrapper encases the biosensor to allow the test strip insertion end to insert into the test strip loading port. Through coupling of the test strip adapter, the biosensor can perform testing. After the testing is finished, the coupling member and the test strip can be wrapped together by the capsular wrapper and be discarded, thus avoiding user being contaminating with samples on the test strip.
