  • Patent number: 9445268
    Abstract: A processor of a mobile terminal refers to an app table that stores a reference flag on a per-app basis, the flag indicating whether the operation-unlock app screen is to be displayed in the foreground window of a display. Furthermore, the processor acquires from the app table the flag that corresponds to the current app in response to a lighting-off command. Moreover, the processor determines whether the operation-unlock app screen is to be displayed in the foreground window instead of the current app screen on the basis of the acquired flag. On the basis of the result of the determination, the processor controls the changing of a screen in the foreground window.

    Abstract: A computer-readable recording medium stores a correction processing program causes a computer including a touch panel and a temperature sensor to execute a process. The process includes determining whether a temperature measured by the temperature sensor is lower than a predetermined threshold when a first event completing contact with the touch panel is detected, waiting for a second event starting contact with the touch panel and a third event moving a contact position with the touch panel for a predetermined period of time when it is determined that the measured temperature is lower than the predetermined threshold, and discarding the first event and the second event and notifying an application of the third event, when the second event and the third event are detected during the predetermined waiting period of time.

  • Patent number: 9012619
    Abstract: Detection probes are provided that are capable of detecting a sequence to be detected containing a mutation even when a sequence not to be detected containing no mutation coexists with the sequence to be detected containing a mutation, which are different only in a single base from each other. At least one oligonucleotide selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 2˜16 is used as a probe. Even in a sample containing an abl gene in which a mutation has occurred and an abl gene in which no mutation has occurred, the use of such probes in, for example, Tm analysis allows the mutation to be detected.

  • Patent number: 8559428
    Abstract: MTID of a terminal apparatus is preliminarily registered into a database of an ISP. In step S2, when a power source of the terminal apparatus is turned on first, (MTID=B) is transmitted from the terminal apparatus to a router. A transmission signal is received by the router and (HGWID=A, MTID=B) is transmitted from the router to the ISP. If (HGWID=A, MTID=B) has been registered in the database, the ISP transmits a permission message in step S5. In step S6, an IP address for a new terminal apparatus is allocated and the new terminal apparatus can participate in a homenetwork. If (HGWID=A, MTID=B) is not registered, a refusal message is sent to the router.

  • Publication number: 20100216123
    Abstract: A method of detecting a mutation is provided that uses Tm analysis and is excellent in detection sensitivity. A detection probe consisting of a polynucleotide complementary to a sequence to be detected containing a detection site that has been mutated and an inhibitory polynucleotide complementary to a sequence not to be detected containing the detection site that is unmutated are added to a sample containing a DNA to be detected in which the detection site has been mutated and a DNA not to be detected in which the detection site is unmutated, so that the detection probe is hybridized with the DNA. Then while the hybridization product between the DNA and the detection probe is heated, a signal variation associated with an increase in temperature is measured, then the signal variation is analyzed, and thereby a Tm value is determined, based on which the presence of the mutation is determined.

  • Publication number: 20100068713
    Abstract: A probe for detecting a mutation in the JAK2 gene is provided that can detect a target sequence containing a mutation even when the target sequence containing the mutation and a non-target sequence containing no mutation coexist, which are different only in a single base from each other. The probe to be used is an oligonucleotide that is at least one oligonucleotide having a sequence identical to that of a region extending from a cytosine base (C) at position 84 to be considered as the first base to any one of the 17th to 22nd bases in the direction toward the 5? end in exon 12 of the JAK2 gene consisting of the base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, with the cytosine base (C) being the 3? end. Even in the case of a sample containing both the JAK2 genes with a mutation that has occurred and without a mutation that has occurred, the use of such a probe in, for example, Tm analysis allows the former mutation to be detected. Preferably, the probe is labeled with a fluorescent dye.
