摘要:
A biological gas sensor for measuring a carbon dioxide partial pressure in an alimentary canal while excluding the influences of hydrogen sulfide and/or weak acid is disclosed. The gas sensor comprises a sensor which has in the sensitive part thereof a bicarbonate buffer solution held by a gas permeable membrane and detects a carbon dioxide partial pressure based on the hydrogen ion concentration of the bicarbonate buffer solution, a liquid holding part which is formed of a gas permeable tube having in the inside thereof the sensitive part of the sensor, an isotonic solution which is held in the liquid holding part and is isotonic with the bicarbonate buffer solution, and a metallic member (e.g., a coil of copper wire) so that hydrogen sulfide entering the liquid holding part may react with the metal and precipitate.

摘要:
A sensor device a sensor unit which detects a biomedical signal, and a transmitter which converts the biomedical signal into a radio signal and then transmits the radio signal. The transmitter has an electrode detachment detection unit 12 which detects electrode detachment on the basis of an output of the sensor unit, and transmits an electrode detachment signal indicative of the detachment. In a receiver, the biomedical signal transmitted from the transmitter is received, the signal is attenuated by an attenuation unit, and the attenuated signal is supplied to a wired sensor input portion of another device through a switch and a connection unit. In the receiver, when the electrode detachment signal is detected from the signal transmitted from the transmitter, the switch is turned off.

Also, the system may include a storage for storing the processed signal telemetered from the transmitter as biological signal data and for inputting the biological signal data to the biological signal inputting apparatus.

A biological signal input apparatus PC having transmitting and receiving means for inputting signals and transmitting and receiving communication information to and from the transmitting and receiving means of the recorder of the Holter electrocardiograph through a relay transmitter-receiver 19 and a wide area network. An electrode 4 for detecting a biological signal and a loop antenna 3 are integrally mounted on a support 2 placed on the surface of a living body and a transmitter 5 is placed on the support 2. A biological signal detected on the electrode 4 is input through a connector 11 to electric circuitry 10 of the transmitter 5 and an electric signal processed by the electric circuitry 10 is output through connectors 12 and 13 to both ends of the loop antenna 3 from which the biological signal is emitted to a receiver. At this time, the opening face of the loop antenna 3 is in a direction almost perpendicular to the surface of a living body for improving sensitivity.

摘要:
A first detector is provided with a cuff adapted to be placed on an upper arm of a subject to detect noninvasive blood pressure of the subject. At least one second detector is adapted to be placed on a part of the subject to detect at least one vital sign of the subject. A single main body is detachably provided on the cuff while being connected with the first detector and the at least one second detector. A display is provided on the main body and operable to display the non-invasive blood pressure and the at least one vital sign as measurement data. A transmitter is provided in the main body and operable to transmit the measurement data to a receiver placed in a remote location.

Disclosed is a liposome which includes an antigenic substance therein and has, on its surface, a peptide containing several contiguous arginine residues. The liposome enables an antigen-presenting cell to achieve the selective antigen presentation through an MHC Class-I molecule, and can induce a cell-mediated immunity specifically. The liposome can also induce the antigen presentation by a matured dendritic cell.
摘要:
An inclination angle detecting device comprises a reference arm attached near the contact area of an ultrasound probe with one end thereof being rotatably attached, a pressing means which presses the reference arm in a direction away from the ultrasound probe, and a detecting unit for detecting the amount of rotation of the reference arm. Placing the ultrasound probe against the surface of the body causes the reference arm to be rotated and pressed against the surface of the body in close contact, whereby the inclination angle is detected from the amount of rotation.
