A method for diagnosing contraction or progress of periodontal diseases is carried and by determining periodontopathic bacteria specific aminopeptidase activity in a specimen by using as a substrate for the enzyme. The substrate is either or both compounds of the formula:X--Z--Arg--Y [1]wherein Arg is arginine residue; X is or an amino blocking group; Y is a color developing group attached to the C-terminal of Arg; and Z is an amino acid or peptide residue composed of 1 or 2 amino acids or their blocked derivatives, the C-terminal of which is attached to the N-terminal of Arg, andX'--Z'--Pro--Y' [2]wherein Pro is proline residue; X' is an amino blocking group; Y' is a color developing group attached to the C-terminal of Pro; and Z' is an amino acid or peptide residue composed of 0 to 4 amino acids or their blocked derivatives, the C-terminal of which is attached to the N-terminal of Pro.

Vacuum processing equipment capable of preventing particles from sticking to objects to be processed in vacuum vessels. The vacuum equipment comprises a series of vacuum vessels separated by doors, and the pressure in the vessels are reducible respectively. The vessels are so configured that objects to be processed are moveable among them and there is provided light projection means for projecting ultra rays on gases introduced to at least of the vessels.

A medical stand apparatus includes a drive mechanism for moving a counterweight in a balancing direction and a balance-sensing mechanism for sensing balancing-state of a parallel link mechanism and for sending a signal to the drive mechanism. The balance-sensing mechanism is provided on a connection shaft on which arms of the parallel link mechanism intersect with each other. When the angle between the arms on the connection shaft is displaced due to upset of balance, a switch corresponding to the direction of angular displacement is pressed by the tip portion of a lock pin. As a result, the pressed switch sends a signal to the drive mechanism, whereby the counterweight is automatically moved in a balancing direction. Since balancing adjustment can be automatically performed in this manner, time required for the balancing-adjustment work is reduced, and a person unfamiliar with the balancing-adjustment work can readily carry out the work.

This invention provides an endoscope image data filing system comprising: a plurality of endoscope devices and a plurality of ultrasonic endoscope devices; an image data recording device which records a plurality of image information after reversibly and irreversibly compressing image signals received from the plurality of the endoscope devices and from the plurality of the ultrasonic endoscope devices; an image reproducing device (A) and an image reproducing device (B) for reproducing the image information recorded in the image data recording device; a large capacity data recording device which as required reads and writes the compressed image information recorded in the image data recording device; and a data communication device for performing communication between the image data recording device and an external host computer via a data input/output terminal device. In use of the endoscope image data filing system of the present invention, operators can manages the endoscope image data in various modes for a middle or long period. Thus, based on the patient history recorded in the endoscope image data filing system of the present invention, operators can make easily diagnosis on the patient.
摘要:
A group of vectors are set to transform each signal of an endoscopic image resolved into a plurality of color signals into a plurality of new color signals based on statistical characteristics of the image. Also, the color signals of the endoscopic image are transformed into new color signals by a matrix operation using the group of vectors for the new color signals. After filtering is applied to the plurality of new color signals, the plurality of new color signals are transformed into a plurality of original color signals by a matrix operation using an inverse matrix of the matrix used in the matrix operation.
