摘要:
A method of detecting water unsupplied condition of an ice tray of a refrigerator ice maker includes steps of measuring the temperature of the ice tray after the water supply operation of water supply means to the ice tray is executed and determining that the water has not been supplied to the ice tray, where the measured temperature is below a predetermined reference value. An ice maker of a refrigerator includes an ice tray which is supplied with water, which is refrigerated by an evaporator so that ice is made, ice removing means for removing ice from the ice tray, water supply means for supplying water to the ice tray every time the ice is removed from the ice tray, a temperature sensor for sensing the temperature of the ice tray, and determination circuit means for comparing the temperature of the ice tray sensed by the temperature sensor with the predetermined reference value and determining that the water has not been supplied to the ice tray, where the temperature of the ice tray sensed by the temperature sensor is below the predetermined reference value.

An image processing apparatus includes a photoelectric converter, a multiple-value circuit, and a detachable external storage unit. The photoelectric converter photoelectrically coverts data of an original into image signals. The multiple-value circuit converts the image signals into multiple-valued data by comparing the image signals with predetermined threshold value data. The detachable external storage stores the threshold value data. The threshold values can also be made automatically responsive to gray scale data. The automatic mode and the manual selection mode are switched between in response to a release (toggle) signal. Color separation and color ghost correction are provided; and various types of formatting management are faciliated. Partial color converting (as, for example, color reversal) is also provided.

摘要:
An apoptosis-controlling agent comprising a carrier and as an effective ingredient 3-�4-hydroxy-3,5-bis(3-methyl-2-butenyl)phenyl!-2-propenoic acid and/or its physiologically acceptable salt(s). The agent promotes the apoptosis of abnormal cells without substantially affecting the apoptosis of normal cells.
摘要:
An image processing method and apparatus for detecting at least one region designated by at least one line of at least one closed loop on an original, wherein the original is scanned and an image formation is generated; the image information is processed for generating image data and region data which represent said at least one designated region; and the region data is processed for each scanning line. The processing of the region data comprises detecting a right end margin and a left end margin of the designated region for generating a marginal signal for the present scanning line corresponding to an interval from the right end margin to the left end margin; detecting a portion of the marginal signal continuous to a region signal for a preceding scanning line to generate a provisional region signal; detecting a portion of the provisional region signal which indicates an outside of the designated region for the present scanning line for generating an outside region signal for the present scanning line; detecting a region-designating signal for the present scanning line which is not continuous to the region signal for the preceding scanning line to generate a new region-designating signal for the present scanning line; and adding the new region-designating signal to, and for subtracting the outside region signal from, the provisional region signal to generate a region signal for the present scanning line.
