摘要:
The invention is to provide an information acquisition apparatus for acquiring information relating to at least one of an oxidized form concentration, a reduced form concentration and a ratio of the concentrations of thioredoxin, useful for judging a stress level, and a stress level information acquisition apparatus and a stress level judging method utilizing the same. A reaction by an enzyme or the like catalyzing an redox reaction of thioredoxins is used to measure at least one of an oxidized form concentration, a reduced form concentration and a concentration ratio of thioredoxins, and data of such measurement is used for judging the stress level of a subject person.
摘要:
An amino acid capable of coordinately binding to a metallic complex is introduced to an active site within the enzyme or another controlled position near the active site. Therefore, when a mediator is introduced into the enzyme, a mediator-introduced position is controlled to be held at or near the active site.
摘要:
The present invention is to reduce a false signal in an apparatus for electrochemically decoding a base sequence of DNA, which false signal is caused by a phenomenon that even unreacted nucleotide 5′-triphosphate derivatives remaining in the solution are electrochemically converted on an electrode. The present invention provides a polymerase-immobilized electrode that comprises an electroconductive substrate and a polymerase unit immobilized on the surface of the electroconductive substrate, wherein the polymerase unit comprises a polymerase part, an anchor part and an electroconductive part, which are linked in an order of the polymerase part, the anchor part and the electroconductive part, or in an order of the polymerase part, the electroconductive part and the anchor part; and the polymerase unit is immobilized on the electroconductive substrate by the anchor part; wherein a free end of the electroconductive part, not immobilized on the electroconductive substrate, is located in the vicinity of an active site of the polymerase part.

摘要:
The present invention is directed to overcoming a problem of rate-limiting diffusion of a substrate toward an enzyme, which is a constituent of a microorganism, while ensuring proliferation of the microorganism, in a microbial electrode using a microorganism as an electrode catalyst. A microbial electrode is prepared using a microorganism expressing an enzyme on the surface layer of the cell membrane or cell wall thereof.

An X-ray waveguide for propagation of an X-ray therethrough includes a core and a cladding. The core has a periodic structure in which plural substances having different refractive-index real parts are periodically arrayed in a direction perpendicular to an X-ray guiding direction. Given that a maximum length of the core in the X-ray guiding direction is l, a maximum thickness of the core is t, and a Bragg angle of the periodic structure for the X-ray is θB(°), at least one end surface of a core region in the X-ray guiding direction is inclined at an inclination angle φ(°), which satisfies tan−1(t/l)

Provided is an X-ray mirror, a method of producing the X-rat mirror, and an X-ray apparatus. The X-ray mirror comprises: a substrate; and an X-ray reflecting structure formed of multiple regions present on the substrate, in which the X-ray reflecting structure comprises a mesostructured film that has the multiple regions having different structural periods in a normal direction of the substrate. Thus, there can be reduced the absorption loss of an X-ray of the mirror that reflects X-rays having different energies.

An X-ray waveguide includes a cladding and a core. The core has a periodic structure formed in at least one period direction. The periodic structure includes periodically arranged members made of material having different refractive index real parts. The core is surrounded by the cladding in the plane perpendicular to a wave-guiding direction. The Bragg angle obtained from the periodicity of the periodic structure is smaller than the total reflection critical angle at which X-rays are incident on the interface between the cladding and the core. The at least one period direction is the direction of at least one fundamental vector expressing the periodicity of the periodic structure in a plane of the core perpendicular to the wave-guiding direction.
