Abstract:
An electrode consists of a cathode matrix material and a biocatalyst immobilized on the matrix material. A water under treatment is treated by disposing the electrode as a cathode and an anode opposed thereto in the water, and applying an electric current between the cathode and the anode.
Abstract:
Derivatives of ML-236B carboxylic acid, its salts and esters and corresponding lactone have a hydroxy group at the 3"-position and optionally also at the 6'-position. These derivatives may be prepared by the enzymatic hydroxylation of a corresponding ML-236B compound employing an enzyme produced by a microorganism of the genus Streptomyces or Amycolata, especially Streptomyces sp. SANK 62285, Streptomyces sp. SANK 62385, Streptomyces sp. SANK 62485, Streptomyces sp. SANK 62585, Amycolata autotrophica SANK 62781. Amycolata autotrophica subsp. canberrica SANK 62882 or Amycolata autotrophica subsp. amethystina SANK 62981. These derivatives have the ability to inhibit cholesterol biosynthesis.
Abstract:
There is disclosed an ultrasonic tomography apparatus of electronic scanning type in which an array of ultrasonic transducer elements are excited with desired time delays allotted for the transducer elements thereby to transmit and receive ultrasonic beams at a deflection angle corresponding to the desired time delays, and the received echo signal of the ultrasonic beams is displayed on a CRT display device in a form of a tomograph of a sample to which the ultrasonic beams are directed. The apparatus comprises a memory in which both of first signals representative of the time delays given to the transducer elements in dependence on given deflection angles and signals designating display position in the X- and Y-directions of the CRT are previously stored and read out for producing delays allotted for the transducer elements and displaying the received echo signal on the CRT.
Abstract:
A beat detection device includes: a pulse wave sensor adapted to detect and output a pulse wave signal; a body motion sensor adapted to detect and output a body motion signal due to a body motion of a human body; a pulse wave signal filtering section adapted to generate an adaptive filter based on the body motion signal to extract a noise signal in the pulse wave signal, and to output a beat signal obtained by eliminating the noise signal from the pulse wave signal; and a filter coefficient setting section adapted to set a coefficient of the adaptive filter to be a predetermined value in response to detection of increase in a body motion change beyond a predetermined threshold value based on the body motion signal.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a wiring board which can simplify a manufacturing step. In a preparation step, a core board and an electronic component are prepared. In an insulating layer formation and fixing step, after accommodating the electronic component in an accommodation hole, a lowermost resin insulating layer is formed, and a gap between the electronic component and the core board is filled with a part of the lowermost resin insulating layer so as to fix the electronic component to the core board. In an opening portion formation step, a portion of the lowermost resin insulating layer located directly above the gap between the electronic component and the core board is removed so as to form an opening portion exposing a part of a core board main surface side conductor and a component main surface side electrode. In a main surface side connecting conductor formation step, a main surface side connecting conductor is formed in the opening portion so as to connect the core board main surface side conductor to the component main surface side electrode.
Abstract:
A wiring board having an excellent electrical property and reliability or the like. The wiring board includes a core board, a capacitor and a resin filler. The core board includes an accommodation hole therein and a core board main surface side conductor disposed on the core main surface thereof. A capacitor main surface side electrode is disposed on a capacitor main surface of the capacitor. A gap between the capacitor accommodated in the accommodation hole and the core board is filled with the resin filler so that the capacitor is fixed to the core board. Further, the resin filler has a main surface side wiring forming portion on which a main surface side connecting conductor, which is connected to an end portion of a via conductor, is disposed so as to connect the core board main surface side conductor to the capacitor main surface side electrode.
Abstract:
Unnecessary operations are eliminated in the calculation of a non-decompression limit at the current water dept. In this manner, the calculation of the non-decompression limit is made more efficient and the required computing time is shorten to the point where the function can be incorporated into a wrist worn device that provides timely data.
