摘要:
A sample is treated with a phosphoglyceric acid mutase (PGAM) inhibitor (polythionic acid (salt) such as potassium tetrathionate) to inactivate the M-type isozyme activity and the B-type PGAM is quantified by determining PGAM isozymes by a rate assay. The B-type PGAM is a novel marker for cerebral apoplexy, and the diagnosis of cerebral apoplexy is enabled by assaying it.

A deficiency candidate detection circuit detects a deficient pixel candidate by comparing the image signal of a target pixel with the image signals of peripheral pixels, and address information of the deficient pixel candidate is stored in a position memory circuit. A deficiency determining circuit repeats the determination of a deficient pixel a number of times based on the address information stored in the position memory circuit, and determines address information of a deficient pixel from the continuity of the determination results. A deficiency registering circuit registers the determined address information in the position memory circuit. A deficiency correction circuit corrects the image signal of the deficient pixel according to the registered address information of the deficient pixel.

A signal processor for reducing power consumption. The signal processor includes a signal processing circuit and a first regulator connected to the signal processing circuit. The first regulator receives an external regulated voltage from an external regulator connected to the signal processor and generates an internal regulated voltage that is in accordance with an output level of a CCD image sensor. The signal processing circuit operates with the internal regulated voltage and performs a predetermined signal processing on an image signal generated by the CCD image sensor.

A signal processor for reducing power consumption. The signal processor includes a first regulator for generating a first regulated voltage with a power supply voltage and supplying the first regulated voltage to a signal processing circuit. A second regulator generates a second regulated voltage with the power supply voltage and supplies the second regulated voltage to an output circuit. The second regulator shifts the second regulated voltage in accordance with a change in an input level of the external device.

An imaging apparatus that has a reduced circuit scale and efficiently operates a plurality of solid-state imaging devices. The imaging apparatus includes first and second solid-state imaging devices, first and second drive circuits for driving the first and second solid-state imaging devices, and a timing control circuit for determining the vertical and horizontal scan timing of the first and second solid-state imaging devices in accordance with a reference clock signal having a fixed cycle. A selection circuit selects either one of the first and second image signals in synchronism with an operation timing of the first and second solid-state imaging devices. A signal processing circuit performs a predetermined imaging process on the selected image signal to generate image data. The selection circuit alternately selects the first and second image signals at predetermined time intervals.

A signal processing apparatus including a clamp pulse generation circuit for generating a clamp pulse in synchronization with an image signal, a clamp circuit for clamping a signal of a black reference value in response to the clamp pulse, and a defect detection circuit for detecting a defective pixel included in an optical black area, wherein the clamp pulse generation circuit cancels a rise of the clamp pulse when a position of the defective pixel detected by the defect detecting circuit and a position of a rise state of the clamp pulse overlap with each other.
摘要:
In a vehicle equipped with an engine and a regenerative system, the quantity of energy storage by the regenerative system is scheduled, and fuel efficiency and driving ease are controlled. If the destination of a vehicle and a route to reach it are not indicated, automatic scheduling is performed. Vehicle scheduling is performed by predicting the distribution of height positions the vehicle is predicted to reach at future points of time and using the representative value of the height at each point of time.
