摘要:
An amplified bimorph scanning mirror for use in various optical systems, an optical coherence tomography scanner incorporating the amplified bimorph scanning mirror, and a method for manufacturing the foregoing are described. A method for optically scanning a target site using the amplified bimorph scanning mirror is further provided. The scan range which can be obtained by exemplary implementations of the present invention can be larger than the scan range made available by conventional scanners.

To provide the communication cable that enables to replace the communication media with an optical signal and increase the communication speed, while assuring the compatibility with the already-widespread telecommunication method. A communication cable used for connecting a plurality of electronic appliances, as well as for conducting communication of information with standardized telecommunication method, wherein the electric signal that is output from one of the electronic appliance is converted to the optical signal with one of the optical module, and is transmitted to the other optical module via the optical transmission medium, and then the optical signal is converted back to the electric signal with the other optical module and is output to the other electric appliance.
摘要:
Elevated ETRB activity, BCL-2A1 activity and/or PARP-3 activity was detected in cancer cells, and determined to be associated with growth and proliferation of the cancer cells. Accordingly, methods are provided for treating cancer by reducing or inhibiting the ETRB activity, BCL-2A1 activity and/or PARP-3 activity. Also provided are methods of determining the responsiveness of cancer cells to treatment with inhibitors of ETRB activity, BCL-2A1 activity and/or PARP-3 activity. Further, decreased cell viability was observed to correlate with reduction in ETRB expression, and reduction in ETRB protein levels by siRNA led to an increase in cell death.
摘要:
To provide an efficient piston pump having a small number of parts and simple assembly steps, and consuming less current in achieving a relatively low ultimate pressure. The piston pump comprises: a suction port (28) through which gas sucked by varying the volume of a pump chamber (22) defined by a cylinder (12) and a piston (14) fitted in the cylinder (12) passes as the piston (14) is reciprocated, an exhaust port (20) through which the gas discharged by varying the volume of the pump chamber (22) passes, a suction valve (26) installed in the suction port (28) disposed on a piston top, and an exhaust valve (18) installed in the exhaust port (20) disposed on a top of the cylinder (12).
摘要:
A method and apparatus for a pressurized gas cylinder transportation system, which may be rapidly loaded, unloaded and refueled. A transportation system may include transportation equipment, a lift system, a cylinder holding cage, a single cylinder hand truck and a gas refueling station to deliver the cylinders.
摘要:
A blood pressure cuff including an elongate, inflatable bladder disposed between an elastic, resilient inner layer of material and at least one outer layer of material. The bladder is secured to these layers along the elongate ends but not along the elongate edges. The bladder is not laterally constrained during inflation and can readily conform to a subject's limb. Preferably the cuff is formed into a cylindrical shape having a fixed outer diameter selected to accommodate an upper limit of arm circumference within the cuff. The cuff may include a stiff backing layer and means for securing the bladder to a layer of the cuff to hold the bladder in place during donning of the cuff by a subject. Because the bladder is not constrained along its contact-width edges, the shape of the bladder automatically adjusts to provide a longer contact surface for larger arms and a shorter contact surface for smaller arms, making the cuff useful over a much wider range of arm sizes than can be accommodated by any single prior art closed cuff. A cuff in accordance with the invention is especially suited to use as a closed cuff in an automated blood pressure measurement machine or in stand-alone measurement use.
