Abstract: A system and method for typing training are disclosed in which a fingerprint recognition system is included. The system recognizes a typist's fingers or fingerprints while the typist types the keys on a keypad such that the system determines which finger has pressed a particular key and can notify the typist when an incorrect finger is used to press a particular key. The system is well suited for tutorial typing where the typist is reinforced to use the correct finger to type each particular key. The system may be implemented using a specially designed keyboard or it may be implemented as an application.

Abstract: A method of preparing Pouteria lucuma extract was developed which comprises extracting oil from the nut. The lucuma nut oil (LNO) was effective to induce cell migration, enhance tissue regeneration and enhance wound healing. The lucuma nut oil provides an agent that is useful for therapeutic or cosmetic maintenance of skin and scalp.

Abstract: A method for optimizing the switching behaviour of a tank warning device of a compensation tank, in particular for a hydraulic motor-vehicle brake system, with a housing and the tank warning device for monitoring the tank filling level of the compensation tank. The tank warning device including a switching unit with a reed contact as a switching element, which can be switched by means of a magnet at a switching point S at which the switching unit generates a signal for an electronic control unit. A compensation tank including a tank warning device which has been optimized in terms of switching by means of a method according to the invention is also disclosed. The reed contact and the magnet are matched to one another in a manner optimized in terms of switching in such a way that the magnet switches at a single switching lobe of the reed contact.

Abstract: A method for controlling a process for fabricating integrated devices on a substrate. The method includes ex-situ and in-situ measurements of pre-etch and post-etch dimensions for structures formed on the substrate and uses the results of the measurements to adjust process recipes and to control the operational status of etch and external substrate processing equipment. In one exemplary application, the method is used during a multi-pass process for fabricating a capacitive structure of a trench capacitor.

Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring a trench profile of a substrate includes a radiation-emitting unit for irradiating the substrate with infrared radiation. The intensity and/or polarization state of the infrared radiation reflected from the substrate is measured at a multitude of measuring frequencies. An analyzing unit determines the respective reflectance and relative phase change and/or relative amplitude change in relation to the respective measuring frequency. In addition, a reflectance spectrum, a relative phase change spectrum and/or a relative amplitude change spectrum may be obtained. By performing a Fourier transformation of the respective spectrum, a secondary Fourier spectrum is obtained. The secondary Fourier spectrum plots a virtual amplitude against corresponding values of a frequency periodicity that correspond to a substrate depth. Peaks of the virtual amplitude may indicate reflective planes within the substrate at respective depths.

Abstract: A method of preparing a chicory extract enriched with sesquiterpene lactones is provided. The method includes performing an initial extraction chicory in a polar solvent, such as methanol or ethanol, at ambient temperature to form an alcoholic extract. The alcoholic extract is subsequently defatted with a non-polar solvent, preferably hexane or n-heptane. A second extraction of the defatted alcoholic extract is performed with a solvent which is more polar than the solvent used in the defatting process and less polar than the solvent used in the initial extraction, for example, it can be chosen from the group consisting of ethyl acetate, n-butanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, dichloromethane, acetonitrile, and mixtures thereof; resulting in a sesquiterpene lactones enriched extract, preferably containing at least 60% sesquiterpene lactones.
