摘要:
The present invention provides a scanner comprising: a base member; a scanning beam reflective member having a first tilt axis and a second tilt axis orthogonal to the first tilt axis; a mounting assembly for mounting the scanning beam reflective member on the base member for tilting of thereof along the first and second tilt axes; an actuator for tilting the scanning beam reflective member along the first and second tilt axes to provide a tilt orientation; a magnet assembly which generates one or more magnetic fields which are responsive and correlated to the tilt orientation; and a magnetic field sensor assembly for sensing the magnetic fields generated by the magnet assembly to thereby indicate the tilt orientation. The mounting assembly may comprise a suspension assembly having a tilt imparting assembly for imparting tilt to the reflective member, and a reflective member holder assembly for holding the reflective member.
摘要:
The bacterial protein OpuCA, an intracellular part of an ABC transporter, has been shown to interact directly with TRAP. The present invention provides methods and compositions directed at interfering with the interaction between OpuCA and TRAP. The resulting inhibition of TRAP advantageously will reduce pathogenesis of all bacteria that utilize this pathway. The present invention further provides methods and compositions directed at interfering with the interaction between TRAP and the extracellular substrate binding protein OpuCC, or the membrane-associated proteins OpuCB and OpuCD, which, like OpuCA, are encoded by the bacterial OpuC operon. Accordingly, the present methods and compositions will be useful in treating diseases caused by such bacteria.
摘要:
The present invention concerns a feed or feed additive for herbivores, which comprises of a Moringaceae. Further, the invention comprises a kit for the treatment and/or prevention of gastro-intestinal diseases and/or disorders of herbivores. Further, methods for manufacturing a feed or feed additive and a method for increasing livestock productivity of herbivores is encompassed.
摘要:
The present invention provides a spatial flexure comprising: a base section; an end section; and an intermediate laterally contracting and expanding section connecting the base and end sections, whereby when the intermediate section laterally expands or contracts, the end section pivots downwardly or upwardly. The present invention further provides a spatial flexure scanner comprising: a base section; a mirror section; an intermediate laterally contracting and expanding section connecting the base and mirror sections; an actuator associated with the base section; a scan mirror connected to the mirror section; means connecting the actuator and the mirror for causing lateral contraction or expansion of the intermediate section in response to the actuator, whereby when the intermediate section laterally expands or contracts, the mirror section pivots downwardly or upwardly.
摘要:
Enhancing the effectiveness of therapeutic ionizing radiation and other treatments of disease in which cells are to be destroyed or modified, by subjecting cells in need thereof to low-dose radiation to increase the sensitivity of the cells to subsequent subjection with a lethal dose of high dose radiation (HDR), a chemotherapeutic agent, or other type of therapeutic treatment.
摘要:
The invention relates to a composition for reducing and/or preventing damage to a plant caused by verticillium. Said composition contains an effective amount of verticillium as an active ingredient, said verticillium being selected among an apathogenic strain and a temperature-dependent pathogenic strain. The invention also relates to a method for reducing and/or preventing damage to a plant caused by verticillium as well as the inventive use of verticillium.
摘要:
A treatment device such as a biliary stent, capable of effectively and continuously inhibiting biofilm formation, and a biofilm formation inhibitor suitable for coating on the treatment device by killing all bacteria including E. coli and by suppressing the growth of these bacteria, are provided. A biofilm formation inhibitor having an effective amount of catechin for inhibiting biofilm formation and a carrier that is suitable for adhesion of the catechin to a treatment device to be placed in the living body, are provided.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a selection marker system for distinguishing genetically modified plant cells from wild-type plant cells comprising (a) a nucleic acid sequence coding for choline oxidase, choline monooxygenase and/or choline dehydrogenase for genetically modifying at least a part of a plant and; (b) at least a part of a wild-type plant of the same plant species, wherein the part of the plant which is genetically modified by the nucleic acid sequence coding for choline oxidase, choline monooxygenase and/or choline dehydrogenase is capable of surviving in a medium containing choline at a concentration which is toxic to the wild-type plant. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for screening and/or identifying a choline tolerant plant cell and the use of a nucleic sequence coding for a choline oxidase, choline monooxygenase and/or choline dehydrogenase as a selection marker for choline tolerance.
摘要:
The invention provides an artificial protein for quantitative analysis of the proteome of a sample, cell or organism, comprising at least two consecutive peptides linked by a cleavage sequence for separating the peptides; a singular marker on one or more peptide for determination of the absolute amount of this fragment; and N-terminal and C-terminal extensions for protection of the peptides; wherein each peptide represents one single protein of the sample, cell or organism and each peptide is in a defined stoichiometry. The invention further provides a collection of peptides, a vector and a kit comprising the artificial protein and a method for quantitative analysis of the proteome.
