20110193553 | Magnetic array sensor circuit to process an output from a magnetic sensor array - A magnetic array sensor circuit to process an output from a magnetic sensor array including a plurality of magnetic sensor elements arranged in an array. The circuit includes a regulating circuit to reduce an offset variation of the output from the magnetic sensor elements arranged in the array. | 08-11-2011 |
20110081033 | METHOD FOR ADJUSTING AN AUDIO TRANSDUCING PROCESSOR - An audio transducing processor can be adjusted under conditions based on the subjectivity of an actual wearer and can improve the wearer's comfort. A method for adjusting an audio transducing processor provided with a cochlear implant for augmenting audition by giving audio information as stimulus pulses to a cochlea of a wearer can comprise an audiometry step for finding an audible sound range of the wearer using frequency and sound pressure as variables, and adjusting the audio transducing processor on the basis of hearing acuity data obtained from the audiometry step. | 04-07-2011 |
20100323367 | METHOD OF DETECTING COLON CANCER MARKER - It is intended to provide a non-invasive and convenient method of detecting a tumor marker for diagnosing colon cancer which is superior in sensitivity and specificity to the existing fecal occult blood test. More specifically speaking, a method of detecting a tumor marker for diagnosing colon cancer which comprises collecting biological sample which is immediately frozen using liquid nitrogen in some cases, homogenizing the sample in the presence of an inhibitor of an RNA digesting enzyme to give a suspension, extracting RNA from the obtained suspension, subjecting the extracted RNA to reverse transcription to give cDNA. amplifying the obtained cDNA and then detecting the thus amplified cDNA. This method is characterized by involving no procedure of separating cell components from the biological sample. | 12-23-2010 |
20100158189 | MOSSBAUER SPECTROMETER - A Mossbauer spectrometer | 06-24-2010 |
20090291447 | Method of detecting colon cancer marker - It is intended to provide a non-invasive and convenient method of detecting a tumor marker for diagnosing colon cancer which is superior in sensitivity and specificity to the existing fecal occult blood test.

20090148840 | Method for detecting colon cancer markers - A method of detecting a tumor marker for the diagnosis of large bowel cancer and adenomatous polyposis coli comprising the steps of a) collecting and freezing feces, b) homogenizing the frozen feces in the presence of an RNAase inhibitor and preparing a suspension, c) extracting RNA from the obtained sample from which RNA is extracted, d) obtaining cDNA by reverse transcribing the extracted RNA, e) amplifying the obtained cDNA, and f) detecting the amplified cDNA, characterized in that the tumor marker is one or more tumor markers selected from the group consisting of COX-2, SNAIL and MMP-7 (with the proviso that a case where only COX-2 or MMP-7 is selected is excluded). | 06-11-2009 |
20090126226 | Inner Sole for a Footwear - An inner sole for an insole has a body made of flexible material and adapted to be laid on an insole of a shoe. Liquid containing spaces are formed in the body of the inner sole for sealingly and flowably containing liquid. Dam portions divide the liquid containing spaces into a toe region, a heel region and a middle region between the two. Orifices communicate the liquid between mutually adjacent regions. The orifice formed by the dam portions that divides the liquid containing spaces into the heel region and the middle region opens toward one side edge portion to cause an eddy of liquid, flowing from the heel region into the middle region, that substantially fills the whole middle region. | 05-21-2009 |
20080292860 | Ultrasonic Vibration Cutting Method and a Fiber Reinforced Plastic Member Manufactured by the Method - An ultrasonic vibration cutting method for drilling a workpiece using a drill applied to the workpiece. Ultrasonic torsional mode vibration in its rotational direction is applied to the drill. The workpiece is a fiber reinforced plastic member including carbon fibers as its reinforcing fibers. The drilling by the drill, with the ultrasonic torsional mode vibration in its rotational direction, provides a drilled surface that is substantially smooth. | 11-27-2008 |
