    Abstract: An automatic test instrument for gaging the percentage of various constituents in organic substances by comparing the reflective optical density of the subject at various wavelengths. Narrow band optical filters are connected together in the form of a rotatable paddle wheel positioned so that the filters can be individually swept through the incident light path between the specimen and wideband light source. As the filter wheel turns, the band of light passed by each filter is progressively shifted with the changing angle of the filter relative to the light path. The filter wheel configuration includes opaque vanes extending from the ends of the filters to periodically interrupt the passage of light to the specimen. Photocells are positioned to sense the level of light reflected from the specimen. The output of the photocells is sampled at predetermined times relative to the rotation of the filter wheel to yield values indicative of reflected intensity at certain wavelengths. Using these values, an electronic circuit in one embodiment calculates three optical density difference values corresponding to moisture, protein and oil content of the specimen. The difference values are automatically inserted in three linear equations which are solved to obtain readings representing the true percentages of oil, water and protein contained in the specimen. Each time a new specimen is loaded for testing, the instrument is automatically calibrated against a standard sample, preferably Teflon (Trademark). The output of the photocells is amplified in a special circuit which subtracts the level of dark period current from the output when the photocells are illuminated.

    Abstract: A technique for automatic detection of abnormalities, particularly pathology, in biomedical specimens. Light transmittance or reflectance data over a large number of wavelengths for numerous samples are correlated mathematically with conventional clinical results to select test wavelengths and constants for a correlation equation. Optical instrumentation with an analog or digital computer applies the resulting correlation equation to the spectral data on a given specimen at the test wavelengths to determine quantitatively the presence of the abnormality.

    Abstract: An analytically significant ratio between timevarying magnitudes of signals is periodically monitored in recurring cycles which are each synchronized with a frequency generator. During every monitoring cycle, each signal relating to the numerator and denominator of the ratio, is integrated separately for a fixed number of generator cycles. Thereafter in each monitoring cycle, the output from the integrator of the denominator signal is applied at the input to the integrator of the numerator signal and the time taken by the latter to integrate back to its starting level is measured in proportion to the ratio of the signals. Either digital or analog time measurements may be utilized and the number of generator cycles over which the ratio is determined may include transition periods between each stage of integration.

    Abstract: The method consists in carrying out the electrical collection of fission products on both sides of very thin metallized discs of polyester insulating material which are placed at the center of a spherical chamber and in measuring the radioactivity with a set of two electron detectors mounted to detect activity of the discs in all directions. The device for carrying out the method comprises a magazine constituted by a rotary circular ring provided with spaced openings each intended to accommodate a disc, a spherical ioncollection chamber, two parallel semiconductor detectors and a unit for conveying each disc from the magazine into an opening formed in a transfer plate. The disc is transferred by the plate to an ion-collection chamber, then passed between the two detectors in order to measure the activity and energy spectrum of the beta radiation of the collected ions then returned to the magazine.

    Abstract: Method and apparatus for measuring the radiation absorption of a fluid specimen and more particularly wherein an electrical signal proportional to the radiant energy received through the fluid specimen is stored and compared with an electrical signal derived from a known reference source, the difference between the signals producing an output signal that is a measure of radiant energy absorbed by the fluid specimen. A pair of capacitors store the electrical signals for comparison and are connected alternately and intermittently to a radiation sensing means by a first pair of gates. A second pair of gates alternately and intermittently energize a pair of radiant energy sources, one source being used as a reference and the other source emitting radiant energy that is transmitted through a specimen fluid undergoing measurement. Both pairs of gates are operated synchronously by a gating circuit that is controlled by a clock and a flip-flop circuit.
