It can refer to a variety of architectures including (1) multiple I/O channels between the CPU and peripheral devices, (2) multiple wires in a cable, (3) multiple "logical" channels within a single wire or fiber or (4) multiple biosensing device based on enzyme-amplification and electrochemical electrochemical /elec·tro·chem·i·cal/ (-kem´i-k'l) pertaining to interaction or interconversion of chemical and electrical energies. e·lec·tro·chem·i·cal adj. methods. The new device, which consists of a card-sized sensor A device that measures or detects a real-world condition, such as motion, heat or light and converts the condition into an analog or digital representation. An optical sensor detects the intensity or brightness of light, or the intensity of red, green and blue for color systems. chip and a toaster-sized tester, can conduct clinical inspections in a short period of time. Specifically, used in combination with a newly-developed highly-sensitive detection method, the device can inspect multiple items in 30 minutes with a single drop of blood. Matsushita expects that the new device will contribute to the prevention and early diagnosis of lifestyle-related diseases and infections as well as formulating therapeutic strategies at an early stage. Going forward, the company will proceed with research with a view to commercializing the device in fiscal 2010. Copyright [c] 2006 Japan Corporate News Network. All rights reserved. |
