| 20100095749 | PROTEIN CRYSTALLIZING AGENT AND METHOD OF CRYSTALLIZING PROTEIN THEREWITH - The present invention provides a technique for crystallizing a desired protein at a high probability; namely, a protein crystallizing agent and a method of crystallizing protein. The present invention also provides a technique for determining the conditions for protein crystallization easily with high efficiency; namely, a method of screening the conditions for protein crystallization and a protein crystallization screening reagent. As the protein crystallizing agent, at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a basic amino acid, acidic amino acid, ester derivative of amino acid and amide derivative of amino acid is used, or at least one of these compounds is used in combination with another protein crystallizing agent. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20090107219 | Systems and methods for early detection of machine component failure - A system for early detection of component failure in a hydraulic system comprises a particle detection device disposed in a fluid flow channel of a machine, the particle detection device configured to monitor a current particle count associated with fluid flowing through the fluid flow channel. The system further includes a condition monitoring system in wireless data communication with the particle detection device. The condition monitoring system is configured to receive data indicative of the current particle count and analyze historic particle count data collected by the particle detection device. The condition monitoring system is also configured to estimate a trend in the historic particle count data based on the analysis. A failure event associated with one or more components associated with the fluid flow channel is predicted if the data indicative of the current particle count deviates from the trend by a threshold amount. | 04-30-2009 |
| 20110000286 | TEST ELEMENT WITH NANOFIBERS - The invention concerns test elements, in particular diagnostic test elements, for determining the presence or concentration of biological, medical or biologically or medically effective substances including nucleic acids, proteins, viruses, microorganisms and cells, characterized in that these test elements contain nanofibers. | 01-06-2011 |
| 20100180672 | Methods for inspecting atmospheric storage tanks above ground and in floating vessels - Method for safely inspecting an atmospheric storage tank, located above ground or on a floating vessel, without having to empty the tank. The method employs an explosion proof robot whose explosion proof character is assured by explosion proof design and monitoring the pressure within and outside the robot throughout the inspection. Operation of the robot will cease if the pressure within the robot falls below the pressure external the robot. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20110048113 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PARTICLE SETTLING VELOCITY MEASUREMENT - The invention provides a simple, inexpensive, accurate, and rapid method of measuring particle settling velocity comprising: (i) providing a gravity settler such as a column; (ii) filling the column with a first homogenous particle suspension, wherein the particle concentration in the first homogenous particle suspension is X, (iii) separating the column into an upper sub-column and a lower sub-column with a height h after settling the first homogenous particle suspension for a period of time t, wherein some particles remain in the upper sub-column; (iv) removing the particle suspension in the upper sub-column and mixing the particle suspension confined in the lower sub-column with a height h to prepare a second homogenous particle suspension; (v) measuring the particle concentration in the second homogenous particle suspension X; and (vi) determining the particle settling velocity v with the formula: v=h(X−X)ltX. Also provided are device and system for carrying out the method. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20090126468 | FILTER UNIT FOR CONDUCTIVE FLUID DETECTION APPARATUS AND CONDUCTIVE FLUID DETECTION APPARATUS USING THE SAME - A conductive fluid detection apparatus for detecting moisture mixed into a coolant comprises: a filter unit having a tubular member through which a coolant can flow, mesh members made of stainless steel etc. and filter paper through which the coolant can pass, but which can hold moisture, the mesh members and the filter paper provided and stacked inside the tubular member, the filter paper interposed between the mesh members; a resistance value measurement circuit measuring the resistance value between mesh members; and a relay stopping the supply of power to the pump when the resistance value between the mesh members falls. | 05-21-2009 |
