摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide a means for efficiently obtaining mammalian embryos having high conception rates. A first aspect of the present invention is a method for selecting a mammalian embryo prepared by in vitro culture from a fertilized egg, comprising a step of selecting an embryo using two or more of the following indicators: the time from fertilization to the completion of first cleavage; the morphology at a stage after first cleavage and before second cleavage; the morphology at a stage after third cleavage and before fourth cleavage; and the amount of oxygen consumed at the early blastocyst stage, the blastocyst stage, or the expanded blastocyst stage.

A color image forming apparatus forms a color image by superposing images of plural colors in plane-sequential manner. In the color image forming apparatus, the amount of aberration between the detection signal for the recording medium for the first color and the horizontal synchronization signal is measured by a counter, and the start timing of image formation of the second and subsequent colors is controlled by a delay device, according to the measured amount of aberration.

This disclosure relates to an image forming and processing apparatus having a plurality of storage devices capable of forming an image at a high speed by reading image data in parallel. Since a predetermined quantity of image data is stored in a plurality of hard discs, and the image data is read from the hard discs to a double buffer in parallel, an image can be formed continuously at a high speed. Another structure is arranged in a manner such that images are stored in hard discs of an optional number and the images are transmitted to a printer engine by using a FIFO (First In First Out) buffer which corresponds to the hard discs. Therefore, an image can be transmitted continuously at a high speed asynchronously with the printer output.

A process cartridge detachably mountable to an image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member; a plurality of developing devices for supplying a developer to the image bearing member, the developing devices each having a first electric contact; a second electric contact for establishing electric connection with the apparatus when the cartridge is mounted in the image forming apparatus; and a selector for selecting one of the first electric contacts, the selector being effective to electrically connecting the selected first electric contact and the second contact.
摘要:
A fixing device is provided with a heating member heated by a heater, a temperature detecting member for detecting a temperature of the heating member, a controller for controlling energization of the heater so that the temperature detected by the temperature detection member becomes equal to a predetermined fixing temperature in a fixing mode, and becomes equal to a predetermined stand-by temperature lower than the fixing temperature in a stand-by mode, and a measurement unit for measuring a temperature rise rate of the heater, wherein the controller controls determination of the stand-by temperature and a switching timing from the stand-by temperature to the fixing temperature on the basis of a measurement result from the measurement unit.
