Patent number: 10218625Abstract: Collisions and/or congestion at output ports of switches can be relieved by: (a) receiving a packet; (b) extracting destination information from the packet; (c) looking up, using the extracted destination information, an output port; (d) determining whether to redirect the packet based on a congestion level of a buffer of the output port; (f) when determining to redirect the packet, (1) dispatching the packet to a dedicated reservoir port of the switch, wherein the reservoir port enforces a queue discipline, (2) receiving, by a reservoir, the redirected packet, (3) temporarily buffering, in an internal queue of the reservoir, the redirected packet, and (4) sending the temporarily buffered packet back to the switch. Otherwise, the packet is dispatched to the output port of the switch.

Publication number: 20130337434Abstract: A method of preparing magnetic bead type nasopharyngeal enzyme immunoassay reagents by polymerase chain reaction according to this invention offers in-vitro diagnostic reagents by means of utilizing nanotechnology. This method uses magnetic beads to coat EBV nuclear antigen (Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen, EBNA1) or early antigen (Early Antigen, EA). The use of polymerase chain reaction (polymerase Chain Reaction PCR) is for amplified detection. It is found that positive controls of different concentrations, after amplified by PCR, change in their brightness and concentration. That reveals the EBV antigens on the magnetic beads can specifically detect IgA antigens in the serum.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 19, 2012Publication date: December 19, 2013Applicant: ATOMIC ENERGY COUNCIL-INSTITUTE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY RESEARCHInventors: Ching-Yan Tsai, Kuan-Yin Chen, Ping-Hung Yu, Chia-Chieh Chen, Chia-Ching Liu, Feng-Huei Lin

Patent number: 8492161Abstract: Disclosed is a method for quantitatively analyzing a functional group on the surface of a solid material. The functional group is carboxylic group while the solid material is carbon nano-tubes. The carboxylic group reacts with sodium hydrogen carbonate, thus turning the carboxylic groups into sodium carboxylate while consuming the sodium ions in the solution. The carbon nano-tubes are separated from the sodium hydrogen carbonate solution. The number of the sodium ions before and after the reaction is analyzed. Moreover, the sodium carboxylate carried on the reacted carbon nano-tubes with reacts with hydrochloric acid solution, thus dissolving the sodium ions in the hydrochloric acid solution. The carbon nanotubes are separated from from the hydrochloric acid solution. The amount of the sodium ions is analyzed before and after the reaction in the hydrochloric acid solution.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2011Date of Patent: July 23, 2013Assignee: Atomic Energy Council—Institute of Nuclear Energy ResearchInventors: Meng-Jun Fu, Kuan-Yin Chen, Chia-Chieh Chen
