Abstract:
A method of quantifying a target non-peptidic compound having an amino group contained in one or more biological samples, which comprises a step of producing a difference in the mass of the target non-peptidic compound between samples, by using a combination of two or more kinds of stable isotopes of a compound represented by the formula (I): wherein R1, R2 and R3 are the same or different and each is hydrogen, halogen or alkyl, or a salt thereof, as a labeling compound; and a kit and the like usable for such method.
Abstract:
A vacuum suction system comprises a work conveyor table 2 having work receiving openings 5, and a table base 3 having vacuum suction channels 7 which communicate with the work receiving openings 5 of the conveyor table 2. The work receiving openings 5 and the vacuum suction channels 7 communicate with a vacuum generation source 17 via a vacuum pipe 9. A negative pressure sensor 10 is disposed on the vacuum pipe 9. Based on a signal from the negative pressure sensor 10, a compressed air generation source 20 supplies a compressed air to the vacuum pipe 9 and thereby stabilizes the vacuum level in the vacuum pipe 9.
Abstract:
An adjustment device for adjusting a plurality of control parameters used for controlling a servo motor according to the present invention includes: a first correction unit for correcting at least one of the plurality of control parameters; a calculation unit for calculating a change rate, due to the correction, of the at least one control parameter corrected by the first correction unit; and a second correction unit for correcting, based on the calculated change rate, the control parameters except the at least one control parameter corrected by the first correction unit, the adjustment device constituting a control system for the servo motor along with the servo motor.
Abstract:
A work inspection system 2 includes: a conveyor table 7 vertically positioned, and conveying works W stored in work-storing pockets 9; a work inspection apparatus for inspecting the works stored in the work-storing pockets 9 of the conveyor table 7; and a sorting and ejecting apparatus 12 for sorting the inspected works stored in the work-storing pockets of the conveyor table in accordance with a property of the works and ejecting the same. The work-storing pockets 9 of the conveyor table 7 are positioned inside the periphery 7a of the conveyor table 7 to surround the works W. The work-storing pockets 9 are disposed along two concentric circles on the conveyor table 7.
Abstract:
A method of formatting a storage medium into sectors format the sectors such that each contains an ID field for storing ID information. The ID information includes addresses of a plurality of sectors, preferably the address of the sector containing the ID field and the address of at least one subsequent sector. A drive unit for use with the storage medium formatted as described above reads the ID information from the ID field, and then temporarily stores either the ID information of a sector other than the sector containing the ID field or the result of an evaluation of the ID information, and refers to the stored ID information when the address of the sector corresponding to the stored information is later examined.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a protein analysis method using a combination of two or more kinds of stable isotopes of a compound represented by the formula (I): wherein R1, R2 and R3 are the same or different and each is hydrogen, halogen or alkyl, or a salt thereof, as a labeling compound to produce a difference in the mass of the same kind of protein contained in each sample.
Abstract:
An image information processor has an image superimposing and outputting means for printing out a superimposed image where a bar code representative of a storage location of an electronic document file received through a facsimile is superimposed on the first page of the electronic document file. When a necessary electronic document file is read out, the bar code is read from the printed output corresponding to the necessary electronic document file being set by the user, the storage location of the electronic document file is decrypted from the bar code to thereby identify and read out the electronic document file. In this case, the reading of the bar code is performed only when a permitted password is inputted by the user. The readout of the electronic document file is not performed otherwise.
Abstract:
Provided is an electronic document management system which sorts out and stores electronic documents automatically. The electronic document management system displays the management names on a console panel of an image scanner, which are associated with document management information and pre-stored in an electronic document management server. When a user selects a given management name, an electronic document is processed in accordance with the management method associated with the selected management name. This allows electronic documents to be sorted out and stored automatically in accordance with the management method desired by a user, without the necessity of using any identification document.
