30results about How to "Rapidly and easily detecting" patented technology

The invention relates to a colorimetric method for detecting bacterial or fungal pathogens by detecting peptidoglycan or (1-3)-β-D-glucan in a sample.

A manipulator-guided folding (hemming) tool (1) includes a frame (9) having a preferably roller-shaped folding element (15, 16, 17, 17′) and a connection (10) for connecting to a manipulator (2), and a detecting device (34) for the loads that occur during folding. The detecting device (34) has an indicator (38) for the loads, which indicator is arranged on the folding tool (1). The indicator is preferably designed as an optical indicator and is arranged in a tool area that is visible during folding.

A conductor pattern having both elongated conductors and a dummy pattern is formed on a substrate. The dummy pattern is formed of dummy conductors. The elongated conductors are typically transparent electrodes. The dummy pattern is so configured that each of the dummy conductors are mutually set apart with a spacing as appropriate in the extending direction (top-and-bottom direction) and in the array direction (right-and-left direction) of the transparent electrodes to prevent any two inspection probes from contacting a single dummy conductor.

An ultrasound diagnostic apparatus 1 includes an ultrasound probe 15, an image acquisition unit 8 that transmits an ultrasound beam from the ultrasound probe 15 to a subject to acquire an ultrasound image, a site recognition unit 9 that performs image analysis on the ultrasound image acquired by the image acquisition unit 8 to recognize an imaged site of the subject, a memory 11 that stores at least one peripheral site effective to detect a target site, and an operation guide unit 10 that, during detection of the target site, guides a user to operate the ultrasound probe 15 so as to detect the at least one peripheral site stored in the memory 11 and guides the user to operate the ultrasound probe 15 so as to detect the target site on the basis of a recognition result obtained by the site recognition unit 9.

Assay devices, assay detection systems, and methods comprising same for analytical tests, medical assays, diagnostic tests, medical diagnosis, risk assessment, or quality control purposes are provided. These devices, systems, and methods are designed to be employed at the point of care, such as in emergency rooms, operating rooms, hospital laboratories and other clinical laboratories, doctor's offices, in the field, or in any situation in which a rapid and accurate result is desired. The systems and methods process samples, such as clinical, biological, or blood sample, and read data from colorimetric based biochemical assays to provide an indication of the presence or absence of a bacterial, fungal, or viral contaminants therein. The assay devices include an optical reader apparatus and barcode scanner for reading and matching the test results to identification information provided by the barcodes to facilitate ease of tracking compliant and noncompliant samples.

The invention relates to a colorimetric method for detecting bacterial or fungal pathogens by detecting peptidoglycan or (1-3)-β-D-glucan in a sample.

This hydrant (2) comprises an electrically conductive body (3) having a generally tubular shape and intended for being fixed in the floor flush with a valve mounted on a pipe, for example a water distribution pipe. The hydrant comprises connection means suitable for connecting at least one electrically conductive wire (10) extending along the pipe, said connection means being connected to the body (3) such that electric continuity is maintained between the body (3) and each electrically conductive wire (10) during use.
