IMPROVED CANAL LOCK. (INCLUDING PLATE).

Improved agar gradient-plate technique.

MIC of antimicrobial compounds, it is essential to have uniform microbial growth on the agar medium; otherwise, it is difficult to determine a sharply defined area of growth inhibition. The conventional agar gradient-plate method has been found to be unsatisfactory for determining the MIC of chemotherapeutic compounds or antibiotics which inhibit filamentous fungi because the latter frequently ...

Improved automatic number plate recognition system

One of the main applications of pattern recognition is the use of video or imaging cameras in order to detect and recognize the vehicle license plate numbers. This is important mainly for access, traffic surveillance and law enforcement. Several systems are implemented and working in situ with more or less precision. These systems are based on the use of a feature set extracted from the best vi...

Significantly improved lifetime of Microchannel Plate PMTs∗

The main particle identification devices of the PANDA experiment will be two DIRCs placed around (barrel) and downstream (disc) of the target. The preferred photon sensor option are microchannel plate (MCP) PMTs because they can be operated inside the 2 Tesla magnetic field of the solenoid. Furthermore, these multi-anode sensors are rather compact and show a superior time resolution which is ty...

Single plate separation of lung phospholipids including disaturated phosphatidylcholine.

We have developed an improved thin-layer chromatographic method for separation of lung phospholipids. Individual phospholipids are completely separated in the first dimension. All phospholipids, except phosphatidylcholine, are then removed. The phosphatidylcholine-containing area is reacted with osmium tetroxide and saturated phosphatidylcholine species are separated from the unsaturated oxidat...
