摘要:
A method of manufacturing a biopolymer optical waveguide includes providing a biopolymer, unwinding the biopolymer progressively to extract individual biopolymer fibers, and putting the unwound fibers under tension. The tensioned fibers are then cast in a different polymer to form a biopolymer optical waveguide that guides light due to the difference in indices of refraction between the biopolymer and the different polymer. The optical fibers may be used in biomedical applications and can be inserted in the body as transmissive media. Printing techniques may be used to manufacture the biopolymer optical waveguides.
摘要:
A material comprising positively and negatively charged nanoparticles, wherein one of said nanoparticles contained a magnetically responsive element, are combined with a support molecule, which is a long natural or synthetic molecule or polymer to make a magnetic nanoparticle assembly. When the magnetic nanoparticle assembly is combined with cells, it will magnetize those cells. The magnetized cells can then be washed to remove the magnetic nanoparticle assembly and the magnetized cells manipulated in a magnetic field.

The invention addressed a difficult problem in the conventional methods and has its object to provide an organic thin film with flexibility and high strength to be a support for a molecule, with which a biomolecular element or a molecule such as a membrane protein as a biosensor can function equally in a living body, and a method for producing the same. In this invention, the organic thin film to be a support for the biomolecular element or the biosensor molecule is produced by forming a layer of lipid molecules on a layer of fatty acid molecules which is a primary thin film layer formed on an inorganic substrate. Further, by the selection and combination of fatty acid molecules, a thin film structure with a characteristic pattern structure can be obtained.

The invention relates to polypeptides comprising, as constituent A, at least three monomers of a member of the TNF ligand family and, as constituent B, at least two peptide linkers that link the monomers of the member of the TNF ligand family to one another. The invention also relates to the use of these polypeptides for treating diseases and for producing a medicament or a vaccine. The invention also relates to methods for producing and isolating these polypeptides, to nucleic acids that code for these polypeptides, to vectors containing these nucleic acids, to host cells transfected with these vectors, and to pharmaceutical compositions containing these inventive objects. Finally, the invention relates to methods for the extracorporeal manipulation, depletion and/or removal of components contained in body fluids, e.g. by means of apheresis.
