Abstract: The invention discloses a device, a kit and a method for determining whether a biological sample contains misfolded protein or misfolded protein aggregates. The detection device comprises a testing component and a sample applicator, the testing component comprises one or more microporous membranes, and the sample applicator comprises one or more capillary tubes. The kit comprises a dye that is capable of binding to misfolded proteins and microporous membranes. During the detection, the sample to be tested is mixed with the dye to form a mixture. The mixture is taken up by a capillary tube. The liquid outlet of the capillary tube is then place in close contact with the surface of a microporous membrane, allowing the mixture to be drawn from the capillary tube into the microporous membrane. The presence or absence of misfolded proteins in the test sample is determined based on the diffusion of the dye in the membrane, as observed by naked eyes or using an instrument.

Abstract: A method of leveling an elevator car, a projection device and a leveling system. The method of leveling an elevator car includes: stopping the elevator car on a set landing; generating a calibration image that spans across the base plane of the elevator car and the base plane of the landing; processing the calibration image, and determining whether the elevator car is leveled with the landing based on the calibration image processing result; and ascending or descending the elevator car when it is determined that the elevator car is not leveled with the landing. According to the leveling method of the present application, it is possible to quickly and easily identify whether the object to be leveled is leveled with the leveling reference by analyzing and processing the calibration image, and even further identify the degree of levering, thereby realizing quick and simple leveling.
