Isolation And Characterization Of The Precursor Virus Of Human Sars Virus: Sars-Associated Corona Virus-Like Virus

Summary

The Present Invention Relates To Isolation And Characterization Of A Class Of Isolated Novel Viruses Which Is The Precursor Of The Virus Causing Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (Sars) In Humans ("Hsars Virus"). The Precursor Virus Which Is A Sars Coronavirus-Like Virus ("Scov-Like Virus") Is Identified To Be Morphologically And Phylogenetically Similar To Hsars Virus. The Present Invention Relates To A Nucleotide Sequence Comprising The Genomic Sequence Of The Scov-Like Virus. The Invention Further Relates To Nucleotide Sequences Comprising A Portion Of The Genomic Sequence Of The Scov-Like Virus. The Invention Also Relates To The Deduced Amino Acid Sequences Of The Scov-Like Virus. The Invention Further Relates To The Nucleic Acids And Peptides Encoded By And/Or Derived From These Sequences And Their Use In Diagnostic Methods And Therapeutic Methods.; The Invention Further Encompasses Chimeric Or Recombinant Viruses Encoded By Said Nucleotide Sequences And Antibodies Directed Against Polypeptides Encoded By The Nucleotide Sequences. Furthermore, The Invention Relates To Vaccine Preparations Comprising The Scov-Like Virus, Including Recombinant And Chimeric Forms Of Said Virus.

Title: Method to improve data collection accuracy by improved windowing in a toner density control system
Usefulness: Method to improve data collection accuracy by improved windowing in a toner density control system
Summary: Method for compensating position error e.g. mechanical error and magnification error i.e. printhead magnification error, affecting toner density control in an image forming device i.e. color printer, that is utilized for form a latent image on a photoconductive member.
Novelty: Position error e.g. printhead magnification error, compensating method for e.g. color printer, involves compensating mechanical and magnification position errors associated with toner test patterns by processing buffered density data
