20090014658 | Solid-state photodetector pixel and photodetecting method - A pixel is formed in a semiconductor substrate (S) with a plane surface for use in a photodetector. It comprises an active region for converting incident light (In) into charge carriers, photogates (PGL, PGM, PGR) for generating a lateral electric potential (Φ(x)) across the active region, and an integration gate (IG) for storing charge carriers generated in the active region and a dump site (Ddiff). The pixel further comprises separation-enhancing means (SL) for additionally enhancing charge separation in the active region and charge transport from the active region to the integration gate (IG). The separation-enhancing means (SL) are for instance a shield layer designed such that for a given lateral electric potential (Φ(x)), the incident light (In) does not impinge on the section from which the charge carriers would not be transported to the integration gate (IG). | 01-15-2009 |

20090029369 | GENETIC SELECTION SYSTEM TO IDENTIFY PROTEASES, PROTEASE SUBSTRATES AND PROTEASE INHIBITORS - The present invention concerns a tester protein for identifying and/or monitoring protease activity in a cellular assay suitable for high throughput screenings by growth selection, wherein the tester polypeptide is a non-regulatory protein carrying a protease cleavage sequence. Upon co-expression of the protease recognizing said cleavage sequence the tester protein is inactivated, which influences the growth and/or survival of the host cells under the chosen conditions. However, in the presence of protease inhibitor the growth phenotype is reversed. The system can be used to identify proteases, protease inhibitors, and protease cleavage sites. | 01-29-2009 |
