A color imaging element, a photosensor and a photoelectric transducer which use a protein and are capable of being stably used for a long time, and methods of manufacturing them are provided. A zinc-substituted cytochrome c552 is immobilized on a gold electrode with a self-assembled monolayer in between to form a blue-light photoelectric transducer. Alternatively, a cytochrome c552 is immobilized on a gold electrode with a self-assembled monolayer in between, and a fluorescent protein absorbing blue light is bonded to the cytochrome c552, thereby forming a blue-light photoelectric transducer. These photoelectric transducers each are used as a color imaging element or a blue-light photoelectric transducer of a photosensor.

The present disclosure provides a mutant gluconate dehydrogenase whose enzyme activity and/or heat resistance is a predetermined level or higher. The mutant gluconate dehydrogenase is made by an amino acid sequence obtained by deleting, substituting, adding or inserting one or plural amino acids in an amino acid sequence represented by sequence number 1. The mutant gluconate dehydrogenase displays enzyme activity which is equal to or higher than 120% of a wild-type gluconate dehydrogenase made by an amino acid sequence represented by sequence number 1, and/or displays residual enzyme activity after heat treatment under predetermined conditions, which is equal to or higher than 20% of the enzyme activity before the heat treatment.

A method for designing a heat-resistant mutant enzyme, the method including the step of reducing a distance between the α4 helix and the α6 helix in a protein three-dimensional structure to become smaller than that of a wild type enzyme through deletion, replacement, addition, or insertion of one or several amino acids in the amino acid sequence of the wild type enzyme with respect to tyrosine-dependent short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase.

In one example embodiment, a protein-immobilized electrode is stably used for long time. In one example embodiment, a method of manufacturing the protein-immobilized electrode includes immobilizing cytochrome c552 having high stability to a chemically-stable gold electrode while maintaining electron transfer capability of the cytochrome c552. In one example embodiment, a self-assembled monolayer is formed on a gold electrode by using hydrophobic thiol and hydrophilic thiol. By dipping the gold electrode on which the self-assembled monolayer is formed in a cytochrome c552 solution, a protein-immobilized electrode in which a cytochrome c552 is immobilized to the gold electrode with the self-assembled monolayer in between is produced.

There are provided a manufacturing method and a manufacturing apparatus for Baumkuchen for easily and properly suppressing shape distortion of the Baumkuchen caused in a manufacturing process thereof. In manufacturing the Baumkuchen by alternately repeating application of batter around the whole outer circumference of a spit and baking of the applied batter, the batter is scraped off outer circumferences of opposite end portions of the spit before baking only in early stage of manufacturing until the number of repetitions reaches a specified value. As a result, the number of cake layers formed at the opposite end portions of the Baumkuchen is reduced from that at the other portion and outside diameters of the opposite end portions are reduced from a normal outside diameter to thereby suppress partial increase in the outside diameter at the opposite end portions of the Baumkuchen caused by drooping of the batter at the end portions of the spit before baking.
摘要:
A metallic glass laminate of the present invention is characterized in that a metallic glass layer of amorphous phase is formed on the substrate surface, and there is no continuous pore (pinhole) through the metallic glass layer. The metallic glass laminate is preferably obtained by solidification and lamination of at least part of the metallic glass powder in the molten state or in the supercooled liquid state on the substrate surface. Because of the dense metallic glass layer of homogenous amorphous phase, the functionalities of metallic glass such as corrosion resistance and wear resistance can be satisfactorily provided. A thick and a large-area metallic glass layer can be formed. The metallic glass layer can also be formed into various shapes within the supercooled liquid temperature range. In addition, a metallic glass bulk can be obtained by removing the substrate. The metallic glass laminate and the metallic glass bulk are utilized for a fuel cell separator, a hydrogen separation membrane, a hydrogen sensor, a solder-corrosion resisting member, etc.
